Target, today was totally worth it!!

I got a few things this afternoon, we didn't have church this evening & it was too stormy to do anything but shop. :) Here's the rundown:

9 bottles of Olay Regenerist Cleanser 5.99 ea
9 2/1 q's Olay facial cleanser PG 5/02, exp 5/31
***$5.00 gc for every 2 qualifying Olay products purchased***

1 Olay Daily wipes 4.69 ea

10 bottles SoBe Lifewater 1.00 ea 4 B1G1 printable, & 4 .50/1 printable (Target q)
***$5.00 gc for purchasing 10 in one transaction***

2 Dannon Activia 4pk 1.66 ea 2 $1/1 SS 5/02

Crystal Light 10 ct 1.97 ea 2 $1/1 CL Pure Fitness printable, 1 $1/3 CL (Target q)

4 Old Spice Deodorant 3.99 ea
2 Old Spice Body Wash (w/ free trial size deodorant included) 3.29 ea
I used 2 B1G1 RP 4/18 + 2 FREE Old Spice Body Wash wyb deodorant PG 5/02

3 packs of J&J gauze bandages 1.64 ea 3 $1/1 from ?? newspaper
***free First Aid Kit wyb 3 eligible products***


I had a "gift card" that came in the mail for $5.00 gc the next time that I spent $50.00.

I split the transaction into 2 smaller purchases to have less oop.

Bottom line after my gc from the above purchases + a $20.00 MIR for $50.00 worth of Olay products, the deal turned into a $4.00 moneymaker. Anyone need facewash?? Be looking for it to show up in your stocking! :)

Shopping trip at Winn Dixie

Tonight I thought I'd try to get up a deal at Winn Dixie since they are offering a great promo this week.
There is a Proctor & Gamble deal that states "spend $20.00 get $7 off your next trip or spend $30.00 get $10.00 off your next trip."

I purchased several papers this week for the PG insert and I'm so glad I did! I bought:

6 36 oz Tide Stain Release liquid (6 $3/1 PG 5/2)
2 Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix (2 $1 printable)
2 Fiber One granola bars (2 .50/1 SS 5/2)
2 Ball park angus franks (2 .55/1 RP 5/2)
1 130 ct Hefty foam plates-FREE w/purchase of 2 Ball Park franks (no coupon needed)
1 8ct box of WD brand poptarts (the kids were with me)

I used a $10/50 q from last week than all other coupons...total was $21.37 with a $10.00 gift "coupon" to be used on anything in the store. Well, not cigarettes, alcohol, stamps, blah, blah, blah..but most things are acceptable.
Total OOP $11.37 I think that is pretty awesome, just for the detergent!
