MY CVS Stash is growing!

Lately I have been getting coupons at the end of my CVS receipt, and lots of them. 
They read "$3 off when your total is $15."

Using that coupon first, and only buying items that had a coupon for almost the whole price, got me what you see here for only tax!
The pantene shampoo was $1 after coupons, but was giving $1 ECB.  I handed over $1 ECB that I had in my stash, and got $1 back.  I call that an even trade.
I was lucky enough to run into one of my friends while at CVS.  She said she never gets the $3 off coupon.  I guess I am just Lucky!

Here is the break down.

3 Gillette

(was on Clearance for $1.75.)

- 3 $2 off coupons

(This gave me a .24 cent overage! Which I pretend applied to the soap)

3 Zone Bars $1 each

-$.55 cents off Sunday paper

$1.32 for 3

Dawn hand renewal $.99

-$1 off from a past sample that came with coupon

Dawn regular anti bac dish soap $.99

-$.25 from past sample in mail

$.74

-$.24 cent off from the Gillette

$.50

Pantene Shampoo $3.99

(This was a clearance price)

-$2 off from CRT scanner at front of store

-$1 off from Sunday paper inserts

had to pay $.99, but also gave me $1 RR.  So, that means I only paid tax.

Milk $3.99 gives $1ECB

-$1 off Facebook TG LEE coupon

cost $2.99

Since I used a $3.00 off coupon before any of my other coupons, this make the milk free!

My total before tax and after $2 RR was $1.82!

YAY!!

Publix trip 7/4

It has been very rainy, but that doesn't keep me inside for long.  I have been trying out a new organization coupon system.  Because of this I reviewed several coupons I had on hand, which helped me gather some really good ones to get some deals at Publix.  Here I only bought BOGO deals.  This means I get 2 of the same item, pay for only one, but get to use 2 coupons. 

My totals after coupons were $30.  My receipt says I saved $89.  This means I would have paid $119 if I bought these items last week when they weren't on sale and without using any coupons!  

here is a Sample of what I got

ALL ITEMS WERE BOGO

Item in bold, matching coupons underneath

4 Reynolds wrap 4.99 each

--2 $1.00 off Internet printable

--- 2 $.75 Sunday paper

$1.62 each

4 Kraft Mayo $1.99

-- 4 $1 off from Publix Flyer

FREE

4 Morning Star Entrees 3.99

-- 2 $1 off printable

--2 $.75 Sunday Paper

$1.12 each

2 Lysol Large Wipes $3.99

-- 2 $.75 Sunday Paper

$1.24 each

2 All Small and Mighty Detergent $5.99

-- $2 off Sunday Paper

--1 $1 off Sunday Paper

$1.49 each

This is why getting at least 2 Sunday Papers is important.  To take full advantage of BOGO at Publix every week, you need 2 of the same coupons.
