Fantastic Free Studio 35 Nail Polish Remover

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on January 2, 2012 2 comments

There is a really fantastic deal to get free Studio 35 Nail Polish Remover at Walgreens. These make fantastic filler items because the only coupon they require is the Walgreens coupon so they increase your item count and you can use more manufacture coupons. Also the cashier told us that there is no limit on the coupon so you can get more than two with one coupon.

1-2-12 – More Great Walgreens Deals

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on January 2, 2012 3 comments

I hadn’t planned on going back to Walgreens this soon but my sister and I decided to go because she wanted to see if the Walgreens by my house had the organic hairspray on sale. We also wanted to try getting the free nail polish remover. Here are the deals we did-

Buy 2 Studio 35 Nail Polish Removers 8-10 oz., 2/$2
Use the $1/1 Studio 35 Polish Remover 8-16 oz., Walgreens January Coupon Book (deducts $1 per nail polish remover)
Cost after coupons- Free!
Note- These make fantastic filler items because the only coupon they require is the Walgreens coupon so they increase your item count and you can use more manufacture coupons.
Also the cashier told us that there is no limit on the coupon so you can get more than two with one coupon.

TWO TYLENOL COLD LIQUID, on sale 2/$10

and use the $1/1 Triaminic coupon in the Walgreens January coupon book (Note- I was able to use this coupon for $1 off but it is really for the 2 pack Triaminic so it will beep and will not subtract the $2 off that a lot of couponing sites are claiming it will. I would not plan being able to use it.)

Note- My mother needed toilet paper so we added it to the transaction so that we wouldn’t go into the negative at the register (I try never to do that because it makes stores mad and I can always use the overage on something else I need) but the overages basically paid for everything beside that. My mother gave me $6 for the Tp so really all I was out was .56 cents!

11-24-11 Thanksgiving Day/Black Friday at CVS

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on November 24, 2011 None comments

These are my “Black Friday” deals at CVS. The deals actually started Nov. 24th at midnight so I went at about 1:30am because I didn’t want to be there right at midnight to fight the craziness but I am night owl. The employees at the store told me I just missed the huge line that had extended to the back of the store.This actually worked in my favor because there was almost no one in the store and the staff was great about helping me do multiple transactions, which I usually don’t do.

I was excited because they still had almost everything in stock. I didn’t have a preplanned list of transactions because I know that often they will be out of one item that forces you to redo your plan in the store anyways.

My strategy was this, collect all of the items I was going to buy and then, because almost all of the items were free after ECBs (CVS dollars), I split them into transactions of as close to $15 as I could get so that I could keep reusing the $15 ECBs so I had a much lower out of pocket cost.

I started with $5 ECBs from earlier this week. The only transactions I used coupons on, besides for store dollars, were the first two. The items in the first transaction were the ones that I would make a profit off of or get back more store dollars than cash spent. I did this intentionally because that way I got my initial $15 ECBs for only about $4 out of pocket and the rest of the money I spent on the other transactions was mostly tax or the slight difference in balances and ECBs from the previous transaction.

Transaction #1

Spent- $4.68 Saved- $13.74

Transaction #2

Spent- $1.36 Saved- $20.22

Transaction #3

Spent- $.59 Saved- $18.67

Transaction #4

Spent- $1.75 Saved- $22.21

Transaction #5

Spent- $.65 Saved- $17.86

Transaction #6

Spent- $.63 Saved- $10.35

Totals for all 6 transactions-

Spent- $9.66

Saved- $103.05

Still Have- $14.37 ECBs That’s like getting paid to take all of this out of the store!

11-18-11 Publix Shopping Trip

Posted by Ney@ShopahoicSavers.com on November 18, 2011 1 comments

Today I did a massive shopping trip at Publix! I’m very excited to say that my totals were-

Spent- $35.47
Saved- $100.75

This included-

– 8 2L Dr Pepper (all free)
– 8 Boxes of Cereal (around $1 a box)
– 1 Gallon of Water
– 2 Loaves of Bread
– 6 Bags of Alexia Frozen Rolls

That’s how I like to do my grocery shopping!

For most of these coupon match ups I will simply direct you HERE where I got them. However, I added to this list with deals I came up with on my own so those match ups / coupons I’m listing below.

Ragu and Pasta Combined Deal Here-

*** Ragu Pasta Sauce is on sale B1G1 Free with a coupon for free Pasta when you buy two. Now what you need to know is that it doesn’t specify a brand so you can buy the B1G1 Free Ragu (I got four) and then get two Pasta’s for free. I chose to get Mueller Pasta which is also B1G1. The Ragu coupon will make two pastas free so you really get four FREE because the register will take off the other two for the B1G1 sale making all four FREE! This is an even better deal if you use the (4) .55¢ off Mueller’s Pasta coupons which you are given the chance to print as many as you want.

Here is the deal breakdown-

Buy 4 B1G1 Free Ragu Pasta Sauce, 16-24 oz $2.59 ($1.29)
