price match

I am not a fan of Walmart, especially for two reasons 1. since I used to work there and 2. when I was 8 1/2 months pregnant I was accused of stealing and my groceries ended up all over the floor... HOWEVER I love that they price match, so I can get the very best prices at one place. Here are the best deals this week

Walgreen's trip

My CVS trip

I realized earlier today that I had a 25% off coupon that expired today. It's not as good of a deal as it sounds. It only works on regular priced merchandise after all other discounts (coupons). So my out of pocked ended up being a little higher than planned, I could have of course put back two of the Blistex, but overall it wasn't bad.

I bought:

• 6 Blistex $.99 each, regular price of $1.67
• 1 Physicians Formula eyeshadow pack $11.99
• 2 Colgate toothpaste $3.99 each, regular price $4.49

I used:

• 3 $1/2 Blistex coupons
• 2 $.50/1 Colgate coupons
• $15 EBC
• $5 ECB
• 25% off Coupon (only took off .69)

Total: $1.22 + $.37 tax
Saved: $29.77 (96%)
Earned: 2 $6 ECB for next time 

To make this a little bit better, take off 2 Blistex and should bring the total down to under a quarter!
