Extreme Couponing, Houston Frugal Living Blog
If you are in a Walgreens this week make sure to check out the marked down clearance in the food section!
They have the Starbucks ( I am not sure which product this is?! Iced Coffee?) that was $7.99 down to $1.99! Plus, there are coupons! $1.50/1 Starbucks VIA Iced Coffee, exp. 9/4/11 (SS 07/17/11). Total: Just $.49!
Thanks Paige for the picture!
Well, what do we have here? CVS is offering loadable e-coupons, are you guys excited or what?! If you got an email from them lately and actually read it, they have been offering a new way to save, by adding the $4 off $20 or $5 off $25 coupons directly to your CVS card. I loaded mine, but have not tried it out yet. I should have today but my total was never high enough and I forgot about it
If you are NOT getting emails or coupons form CVS you need to go HERE and either create an account OR update an old one. This will get you coupons and emails from CVS. Then you will get an offer to add these coupons to your CVS card by just clicking on them. They do have expirations dates so make sure you know what and when.
Has anyone used theirs yet?
Today at CVS when I scanned my card I got a $2 off CVS Gold Emblem brand popcorn, plus there were a few other snacks listed. This gold emblem bag of popcorn was $1.49, so I was able to do the following deals:
Transaction #1
Buy Milk $2.99
Total: $2.99
Got Back: $1 ECB
Transaction #2
Buy Milk $2.99
CVS Popcorn $1.49
Use $1 ECB from previous
Use $2 CVS coupon
Total: $1.48
I thought this was a great deal as $4.50 for 2 gallons of milk and a bag of popcorn is awesome! Always make sure to scan your CVS card when you get into the store!
Starting on Sunday at Walgreens, there is going to be a HOT deal on Huggies baby wipes! The large refill bag will be on sale for $5.99, plus there are a few coupons you can use with it! Thanks Angela, for the heads up!
You will be using 3 coupons on 1 item. Hand over the manufacturer coupon first, then the store coupons. If your store does not have the infant care book, many of them are out, you can have then key in the infant care coupon code, it is 5519.
Both of the Walgreens coupons you should be able to find in your store, the August coupon book is at the front of the store and the infant care is either in the pharmacy or they have them behind the counter many times in the cosmetics.
Huggies Baby Wipes 184 – 216 pack $5.99
Use $0.50/1 Huggies Baby Wipes (SS 07/17/11)
Stack with $2/1 Huggies Diapers Big Pack or Wipes 184 or 216 ct. (5519) – Walgreens Infant Care Booklet
Stack with $2/1 Huggies Wipes 184 or 216pk (5717) – Walgreens August savings book
Total: $1.49!
** From the Walgreens coupon policy: When purchasing a single item, Walgreens accepts one manufacturer coupon and applicable Walgreens coupon(s) for the purchase of a single item, unless prohibited by either coupon offer.
As long as the infant care coupon is a Walgreens store coupon and not a manufacturer coupon you can use 2 Walgreens and 1 mfq on these wipes. It might help to bring a copy of their coupon policy with you.
OK, Paul was nice enough to run to CVS for me and see what they had. He found some of the CVS diapers for all 75% off, some were marked at 50% but rang up at 75%. He also found the Pampers for 75% off and the biggest score was the CVS wipes for $.71!
This is what it looked like:

Total: $3.45
Got Back: $1 ECB
Transaction #2
Pampers $2.74
CVS Wipes $.71
Used $1 ECB from previous purchase
Total: $2.45
** He got back another $1 ECB. The limit is 1, so we are not sure why it printed.
Transaction #3
2 CVS diapers $1.49
1 CVS wipes
Used $1 ECB
Total: $2.69
It looks like they are just marking down baby items, many people have said they saw these over the weekend so your store could possibly already be out. It doesn’t hurt to take a look if you need diapers!
