What I Saved: A $0.29 CVS Trip!

Based on the ads that came out this week I didn't think this would be a great weekend for deals, which I was okay with because I am SO excited for Harris Teeter Triples starting on Tuesday!  I was wrong...this was a great weekend for deals - especially the unexpected kind!

I grabbed two of the Scrubbing Bubbles from Target using the $1 off Target printable and the $2/2 from the 3/11 RP.  Not the best price possible, but I needed and it and for $1 each I was okay with it!

Before I did my Sunday shopping Darrin and I drove out to Carolina Beach to look for a Beach Cruiser for me.  We found a Trek beach cruiser in pretty good condition for only $75!  I was so excited.  The guy we're getting it from still has some work to do on it, but I'll have it by next weekend.  I couldn't believe the amazing deal we were able to get for it.

I also ran to NY and Co and grabbed three pairs of shorts for less then $55.  They are having a B1G1 50% off sale and I had a $25 off $75 coupon from the Entertainment book.  Less than $20 for a nice pair of shorts is a good deal in my book!

I ran to Harris Teeter and didn't get that much; I spent less than $20!  I did grab 4 packages of Perdue Ground Chicken for $1.69 each!  I love ground chicken - I use it in place of ground beef and ground turkey and it freezes really well!

Finally I hit up CVS and I did really well (as you can see from the title of the post!).  I did another round of the buy and Olay facewash and get a free bodywash using the coupon in the March P&G and the $3/2 Olay facial cleansers from the 2/12 RP.  I also grabbed the free Carefree panty liners using the $1 off coupon from today's SS.

They also had some great clearance deals on scented bodywash, bar soap, lotion, hand sanitizer, etc.  Items as low at $0.49!

I couldn't justify getting bodywash when it's free using the deal above but I did grab some hand sanitizer! I think these would make amazing gifts for some lucky friends.  Or even stocking stuffers if you're thinking that far ahead!  They had a wide selection left, but just be careful because not every product was on clearance!

In addition to the coupons listed above I also used a $3 of $15 coupon that you can find on the CVS Facebook page and a 20% off coupon that loaded onto my ExtraCare Card (make sure you check your email!).  I ended up getting $35.71 worth of items for only $0.29 plus tax!  That's a 99% savings!!

Here are my weekly totals (just HT and CVS because the other items come out of another part of our budget):
Total value: $84.99
OOP: $17.95
Savings: 79%

Time for me to start prepping for the Harris Teeter Triples Event!  I plan on getting up and making it to the store by 6am on Wednesday!  I'll post my savings throughout the week!

Any great deals you've found this weekend?  What are some of your favorite stores for clothing sales?
