There are some pretty nice coupons available for printing right now. I though it might be nice for my Redeeming Lives friends to have them all in one place for printing. Thanks Common Sense with Money and Coupon Cravings for the links!

$1.50/1 half gallon of Bluebell ice cream

$.50/1 Bic Wite-out correction product (save for school supply sales!)

$2/1 Tucks products (Walmart possibly has a take along size for $2.64)

$1.50/1 Blue Bunny 6 pack Champs cones

$10.50 worth of Beech-nut coupons

$1.00/1 Cottonelle (you have to take a pledge first) (it’s been reported that the 4 pack is on roll back at Wal-mart for $1…I haven’t been able to find it at the Gulfport Walmart.)

$1/1 Vasaline aloe (supposedly a trial size at Walmart for $.97)

$1/1 Kotex (you can find these for $1 at Wal-mart and they are often ECB or RR deals at the drugstores)

I hope you find some useful coupons here. Also, don’t forget to check for coupons at Coupons.com and Smartsource.com. There are always lots of great coupons there.

I have a facebook group called Redeeming Lives, mostly made up of family, friends, and people from my church who know me in real life and are trying to get the hand of this couponing thing. I’ve offered to list CVS deals and realized Facebook Wall posts have character limits! My husband suggested I move the deals here and link to them…

This is a pretty good week at CVS so you’re gonna wanna go! Don’t forget to ask for rainchecks if they are out of anything you want! Especially if it’s free!

These are not all the deals, but it’s some of the best. If you follow my directions you should spend less than $5.00 out of pocket (OOP). You will want to do at least two transactions.

I hit CVS up early this week so I could take advantage of a nice $5/$25 CVS coupon. I ran into a nice Olay deal where you can score free Olay products if you have the right coupons!

I did two transactions. Here’s the loot:

9 ECB’s (I’m running low on ECBs! Ack!)

New total: $16.95 + tax (I don’t know when I’ve spent this much at CVS. It’s been awhile!)
ECB’s earned: 25.07

(for some reason my Huggies ECB’s didn’t print, so be careful about that!)

Transaction #2

(2) Olay Definity Make-up remover wipes $9.99 each (10 ECB’s when you spend $25)
(1) Olay Reginerist Mae-up remover wipes $6.00
(1) Colgate toothpaste $2.99 ($2.00 ecbs)

Subtotal: $28.97

Used:
$5/$25 CVS coupon (emailed to me)
(2) $5.00 Definity MQ (one of these came from the Year of Savings Booklet and another was a home mailer.)
(1) $5.00 Reginerist MQ (from Year of Savings)
(1) $1.50 Colgate MQ
3.40 ECB’s

New total: $4.07 (another high total? I’m way off my game.)
ECB’s earned: $12.00

Once again, my Olay ECB’s didn’t print out so watch out. I have to go back tomorrow and get them to fix it. Pay attention at the register!!

I love Olay facial wipes! They are my favorite, so I was excited about this deal. Also, I’ve been dying to try the Covergirl Simply Ageless Foundation for awhile now.

I haven’t posted my CVS deals in three weeks! I’ve been taking pictures though. Below is the loot, but I’m not going to bother with the transactions. I don’t feel like looking for the receipts and figuring out which ECB’s I’ve already spent, etc. I did get some good deals though. Last week was an especially good CVS week!

And for good measure, here’s my loot from Walgreen’s last week.

Oh, the deals rock at KMart this week. Especially since I have a $5/$50 coupon. Sign up for yours here! I’m also excited KMart started taking internet printable coupons! That makes a good thing so much better.

Here’s what I’m guessing is going to be my first out of many trips this week.

The loot.

And here’s the breakdown:

(4) Luden’s cough drops $1.49 each
(4) KY jelly $3.99 each
(4) Lysol spray $4.50 each (was supposed to be $2.50 each, I wasn’t paying attention. )
(4) Lysol 4 in 1 All Purpose cleaners (the big refill one) $2.50 each
(2) Windex wipes $2.50 each
(3) Bounty Basic 2 pks. $2.99 each
(4) Glade candles $2.50 each
(4) Lime Away cleaners $2.50 each
(4) Visine eye drops $3.99 each
(8) Pringles $.99 each
(2) KMart reusable grocery bags $1.49 each

Subtotal: $110.75 (I think, that receipt was a killer to type in!)

I used:
$5/$50 KMart coupon
(4) $1.00 Luden’s MQ
(4) $2.00 KY MQ
(4) $1.00 Lysol spray MQ
(4) $1.00 Lysol all purpose cleaner MQ
(2) $1.50 Windex IP
(3) $1.00 Bounty MQ (got this from PandG Year of Savings)
(2) $1.50 off 2 Glade candles (I read the Q wrong and thought it was off 1!)
(4) $1.00 Lime Away MQ
(4) $2.00 Visine tears MQ
(4) $1.00 off 2 Pringles MQ

New total after doubles: $10.90 (+tax)

This trip would really have rocked if I’d payed better attention to my coupons and the how the register rang items up. I payed an additional $8.00 on the Lysol ($2.00 each can) and I thought the Glade candles would be free since I read my coupon wrong. That cost me an additional $4.00. In fact, if I hadn’t had those coupon mishaps, I might have been in the negative! I love that $5 off $50 coupon!

Now, I’ve gotta go organize some coupons! I’m planning on hitting up CVS, Walgreens and KMart again on the morrow! Happy shopping!

(Oh, I purchased the KMart bags as a way to support KMart. I also love reusable shopping bags! I think it’s awesome that they’ve had doubles every month this year so far! Go KMart!)

I had a $10/$50 coupon expiring last night and I also transferred a prescription so I had a nice shiny, new giftcard to use. (My last $20 gift card got used up on Saturday. I got it for Christmas and it lasted me this long! Just in time! I was nervous I might actually have to start paying for things at CVS!)

Here’s my loot.

And here’s the breakdown. I only did one transaction, since I was using a $10/$50.

Once again, not fantastic, but I got a few groceries!

I haven’t had the best of luck at Walgreens. I often skip their deals. The Walgreens in my town has terrible customer service and I can’t stand to go in it. There is a Walgreens in a neighboring city that I love…but it’s about 20 minutes away! After reading some spectacular deals at Walgreens this week I decided it was definitely worth a trip. I was not wrong.

I was beginning with no register rewards and only $18.48 on my Walgreens giftcard, so my OOP wasn’t exactly fantastic. I was still very pleased with the way it all worked out. And the cashier and manager were perfectly wonderful!

Here’s my loot.
