Happy New Year!

                               

Since we will be busy moving things as everyone prepares for the new year, I just wanted to be sure to take the time to say "Happy New Year!" Hoping everyone has a great holiday and the new year brings them great new beginnings and all they desire.

CVS Beauty Club reset 12/31

A reminder in case anyone missed it, the Spend $50 earn $5 ECB beauty club promo will reset as of midnight 12.31.11. If you are near that $50 mark, hurry in to pick up something to get you to your $50 so you do not lose your ECB. I recommend some of the clearanced shampoos right now or if your store activates their sales on Saturday evening, maybe something from the CVS cash card deal like the Cover Girl (buy 1 get one 50%, with the Qs in the 1/1 P&G if you are lucky enough to get those early too). New totals will start tomorrow along with the new year!

CVS Trip 12.29.11

Found some great deals today at CVS thanks to my friends at weusecoupons.com. Select varieties of Head & Shoulders (extra volume), Herbal Essences (Totally Twisted) and Pantene (restoratives collection) were on clearance 75% off. Combined with the new Qs that came out in the 01.01.12 P&G (which I am lucky enough to get early) these were such a great deal. I only paid $.09  each for the Herbal Essences and $.07 each for the Pantene and Head & Shoulders. Think I may check out another local CVS tomorrow.

Sorry the picture is a little grainy, we took it on my daughter's new Ipod Touch, since I cannot locate the cord to my camera.

Transaction #1:

1 Herbal Essences Totally Twisted $1.59

$1/1 MQ

$.09 plus $.05 tax = $.14

Transaction #2:

4 Herbal Essences Totally Twisted @ $1.59 each

1 Head & Shoulders Extra Volume @ $1.57

1 Head & Shoulders Ocean Mist @ $3.14 (only on 50% clearance, but needed two to use my Q)

2 Pantene Shine Enhance Conditioner @ $1.57 each

3 Pantene Frizz Control Shampoo @ $1.57 each

1 Pantene Shine Enhance Conditioner @ $1.57

1 Pantene Brunette Expressions @ $1.57

1 Pantene Highlights Expressions @ $1.57

1 Gillete Fusion Shave Gel @ $2.37

4 $3/2 Pantene MQs

1 $2/2 Head & Shoulders MQ

4 $1/1 Herbal Essences MQs  

1 $2 MQ Gillette Fusion

Made my subtotal $4.04 plus $.97 tax for a total of $5.01 and I got back $4 ECB (Extracare Bucks) to spend on future purchases. The Head & Shoulders is producing a $2 ECB when you buy one right now, with what looks like a limit of six. Love my CVS!

New Year

As the new year approaches, I have made a resolution already. It is to make more time to visit here and share all my great deals. It has certainly been a long time, but I think now that things may be settling down a bit for us (is that really possible lol) and I am getting the hang of this "super couponing" thing a little better, I really want to share those deals here. So I am planning to visit here at least once a day to share great deals with anyone who happens to stop by. Let's see how this goes. Stay tuned!

Free Travel Size Item at Bath & Body Works

                                        

Now through July 13, you can score a free travel size item at Bath & Body Works when you purchase any full size item. Just go here to get your coupon for a great freebie!

Free Hershey Bar at CVS

                         

This week at CVS, the little red machine is spitting out a coupon for a free Hershey's Air Delight Candy bar. My daughter LOVES these candy bars, so this was a nice surprise. Now she just cannot wait to try the air delight Hershey Kisses. Wonder when we will get coupons for those LOL. Don't forget to scan your Extracare card the next time you are in CVS.

Long Time

I know it has been almost a month since I last posted on here. Things have been just a bit scrambled for our family, but I will not bore anyone with the details. So all I can say is that I have a new determination to be sure to share the great deals I find with everyone. I myself need to get back into the swing of things, as I have not been really searching for great deals for a few weeks. Let's see what I can find to get back into the swing of things. Thanks and God bless! Hope everyone has a great day!
