Walgreens has a few freebies this week, but nothing too exciting. There are a few freebies that you can pick up, but I think I will be much better off price matching to Walmart instead of making a trip in.
::WEEKLY DEALS::
Wow, it is hard to get back into the swing of normal posting! It also seems weird to have a new CVS ad coming out tomorrow…
Do you have any Tide $2 coupon left? I actually have a few and am going to grab some Tide for $3.94 this week. Those coupons expire on the 30th so you only have a few days to use them, but it makes for a good price on a pricy detergent!
The Tide is ALSO part of the buy $30 get a $10 gift card back. So, you can turn this into even a sweeter deal and get your Tide for under $2!
The only 2 transaction’s that I am interested in doing is the following:
Transaction #1
Buy 1 Complete Contact Solution $8.99
Total Due: $8.99
Get Back: $8.99 ECB
Transaction #2
Buy 4 Tide $5.94
Buy 2 Pantene Shampoo, Conditioner or Styler $3.49
Use: 4 $2 off Tide detergent from 10/30 P&G
Use $3/2 Pantene product from 10/30 P&G OR from 11/27 P&G
Use $8.99 ECB from previous purchase
Total Due: $10.75
Get Back: $10 Gift Card
** You probably have ECB’s that you can use from Black Friday. I don’t have any so your total might be a lot lower.
::WEEKLY DEALS::
Finally back to a “regular” deal! Grab this $1 off All coupon and use it TOMORROW ( Saturday) to get a good deal on All Detergent!
Buy 1 all Detergent 28 to 40 loads $3.99
Use $1.00/1 all Laundry Detergent coupon
Total: $2.99!
To see the Walgreens deals for this week go HERE.
For being completely unprepared this year, because the posting has been crazy, plus cleaning and cooking, plus having a job…. I didn’t do too bad! Half of the printable coupons I needed had already reached their print limit tonight when I went to print 🙁 See, you need to print them asap when they come out!
I spent about $38 out of pocket, I left with no ECB’s but I planned it that way. I saved all my items to the end that didn’t give me ECB’s back, so I could use all that I had left to pay for them!
For example, I got 12 packages of Ferrero Rocher chocolates at BOGO free, the Toy Story glow pad ($9.99) and the Discovery Kids space ship ($12) that goes towards a $30 toy purchase if I go back in this week. None of these gave me ECB’s back, but really cost me nothing as I used all my ECB’s on them! 
I made 4 transactions total. This guy… Hi Randy!!!! Made a few also but his last one gave him this HUGE receipt full of ECB’s back! I love to see guys coupon!
Also, I wanted to say “Hi” to the 2 sweet girls shopping who helped us find stuff, and to the CUTE couple shopping together, tonight was really fun, thank you for being so sweet!
If you want to see all the match ups you can go HERE and print a list.
** If your store is sold out, GET A RAIN CHECK and you can come back when they are restocked! A few items they can’t do rain checks for ( special order items) but most things they can!
CVS is going to be HOT! You can get a paper in the morning to get an ad and see what is in your area.
I have been posting the CVS black Friday preview, but I wanted to write out the freebies so you can get prepared!
