I am slowly catching onto the couponing craze. I know that coupons save you money but I think they also make you think you should buy the product just because you have a coupon. I have read tons of tips lately and the most common one I see is "Don't buy it just because you have a coupon. It is only a great deal if it is on sale and you have a coupon to add to it." Here are a few of my finds today:
This deodarant was on sale for .99 that's an awesome deal by itself but I had a coupon for .55 off. So that means I paid .45 for a bottle of deodarant. I'm sure it's probably a brand that Karl would rather not wear until he's 75 but who can complain about 3 bottles of deodarant for $1.50 tax included.
At Albertsons I bought 6 boxes of cereal, 3 bottles of juice and a tomato for 15.94. Thats not a smoking deal but still not bad especially for all name brand items. The OJ was free when you bought four boxes of GM cereal and I had a coupon for $1.00/3 plus .75/1. That came out to $2.06/cereal plus -$2.99 for the OJ. I had a B1G1 for the apple juice so it cost $1.25/bottle and $1/2 boxes of Life which came out to $1.50/box.The tomato was the only thing I paid normal price for. With my rewards card and coupons I saved $26.66 YIPEE!!! It looks like we will be eating cereal for breakfast lunch and dinner. Awesome!
