cvs first trip couponing


As I went in to cvs with my coupons ready to go and my flyer on hand. I was nervous because I wanted to see if I learned a thing or two about couponing. I went to look for certain items. Well my first transaction is for items that get extra care bucks back. I bought cvs tums for 2.99 and I got a coupon for 2.99 back. Acid control for 6.99 and got a coupon back for 6.99.Anti diarrhea for 4.99 and got a 4.99 coupon back. I also bought clairitin and received 3.00 coupon back.  So for this transaction I only saved $15.60. My second order I got pantine shampoo 2/8 and Anti circle makeup 13.99. And 4 boxes of honey bunches of oats. With all my coupons from the first transaction and 4 coupons of my own My total after coupons was $4.43. A $39.43 savings. Total savings for this trip was $55.03 more then was spent! I felt pretty good about myself and this first trip. Each time I am learning more about couponing. I have my binder ready so I can take it with me to the store if I see a good deal I can get the coupon to go with it!

If you have any questions feel free to ask and I will be happy to share what I know. I hope ya'll have a great day.

CVS Couponing: How To Save Money With Coupons At CVS August 10th





This is what I am going to be trying tomorrow! I will share with you if it worked or not! I believe I am going to save 33 dollars for 64 dollars worth of products! This lady has allot of good videos on couponing!

Extreme couponing One day at a time!

I have been researching how to start couponing. I went and watched a couple good video's. And of course watched Extreme Couponing. I went online to a couple coupon sites and printed out all I can use or would use. I know I have been picky before because I would only get the coupons that I would want brand, type, and preference. But if you want to make it couponing you need to find the best deal. Yes at times I might not go and buy something because I prefer a certain soap etc. One tip I learned is a good rule of thumb is to buy a newspaper for each person in your family. I am a family of 6 so I bought 6 newspapers on Sunday. Yes that seamed like allot to me, But I want to be able to eventually not have a huge grocery bill every time I go to the store. I did get a little push from my husband and my oldest daughter Leah! So I am going to put my whole self into this and see if I can be a extreme coupon er!!!

Here are the online sites I found with great coupons

As I learn about couponing I want to share with you . Keep an eye out for more to come. I hope ya'll enjoyed this and if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!
