I DID IT !!!

OK....I watched TLC's coupon crazy show and was amazed by it. NO, I don't won't to be in a check out line for 3 hours with 15 buggies. But, it got me thinking what a great way to reduce an expense we all have.

So, I headed out to find a super score on something we use in our household. Here is my super transaction.

Purchased #1 box prilosec (42 count) on sale at Walgreens for $24.99.

24.99 - 5.00 register rewards on item - 8.00 coupon from SS = Total $11.99

Purchased #2 box prilosec for $24.99.

24.99 - 5.00 register rewards on item - 3.00 coupon from SS= Total $16.99

So Total right now for both boxes is $ 28.98.

Then I used rebate form - if you buy 2 boxes of prilosec get a $25.00 visa gift card.

So my net total is 28.98 - 25.00= $3.98

WOW $3.98 for 2 boxes of 42 count prilosec.

Even if you bought the generic version, 2 boxes would have cost $39.98. (YEP - I'M ADDICTED)

So now I'm thinking great ideas to find cheap or free grocery/ household items that could be donated (i.e. Womens Hope Center or Frozen Meal Ministry).

Well, stay tuned and see what the next adventure will be...
