I just came back from a trip to Walgreens and found some great bargains!  I wanted to check on the deals in person before I posted them.  Here is what I found;

Purina One 6oz package dog food $1.99
Use the $2./1 coupon for Any Purina One Product from the 10/17 SS
= $FREE! + a penny overage if your store allows overage

Bic Disposable 2 blade razor 2 pack $1.50
Use the $2./1 coupon for ANY Bic disposable razor from the 10/17 SS
= $FREE! + overage if your store allows overage

Please remember that you cannot get cash back when you use a coupon that is of higher value then the item –  you must absorb the overage if your store allows overage.  If your store does not allow overage they will adjust the amount of the coupon to the price of the product so you will still get it for FREE.  Be sure to take the Walgreens Coupon Policy with you in case your coupons or savings are ever in question.  You can find the coupon policy and store guide to Walgreens here.

I purchased 3 different papers this week and 2 had the above coupons in them (not all 3).  The washington Post has them, the Baltimore Sun does too.  The Evening Capital does NOT!  Sorry!

There are a few bargains to be had at CVS!  These specials are good through Saturday the 23rd of October.  If you are new to shopping with CVS you’ll want to read our Store Guide here.  Make sure you scan your CVS Extra Care Card before the cashier rings up your bargains.  If you don’t have 1 you can ask for a FREE card in the store.  Extra Care Bucks will print out at the bottom of your receipt when you make a qualifying purchase noted below.  This is just like CVS money – you can spend it on anything in CVS.  What you want to do from week to week it “roll” your CVS money (Extra Care Bucks) so you spend very little out of pocket but get huge returns with all kinds of freebies.  Don’t forget your GREEN BAG TAG – for every reusable bag you bring in to CVS and have your tag scanned you’ll get 25¢ in extra care bucks – they will show up on your CVS card once you have accumulated 4 ($1.00).

Neutrogena Triple Moisture Split End Mend $7.49
= $7.49, get back $7.49 in Extra Care Bucks = $FREE
(only 1 allowed per CVS card)

Mentos Gum 15 piece Buy 1 Get 1 FREE ($1.89 for 1)
Use the $1./1 coupon for Mentos from the 10/3 SS
= $FREE + possible overage if your cashier allows overage
(be sure to use a coupon on the 1 you are buying and the 1 you are getting FREE – 2 coupons)

Hershey’s Singles 1.3-2 oz. 2 for $1.00 or 50¢ each
Use the $0.55/1 coupon for Hersheys  from the 9/26 SS
= $FREE + possible overage!
(be sure to buy 2 and use 2 coupons and purchase other items to absorb the overage!)
I did not get this coupon but I’m posting the deal because maybe you did.

Many people use the low dose Bufferin for “heart health” and some people still use Bufferin for headache and pains.  Well you can get it this week completely FREE and make a little money.  Lets make a deal! Today’s Sunday paper has a coupon for $3.00 off Bufferin and there is a form for a mail in rebate.

Bufferin Low Dose 81mg 130ct $5.99
Use $3./1 coupon from the 10/17 SS
Stack with the $3./1 coupon from the Walgreens Oct coupon book (located next to the weekly sale circular FREE)
= $FREE + you make a penny (you will need to spend the 1¢ on another item in that transaction or the deal won’t work)
Send in Mail In Rebate for $2.99 = $2.99 Money Maker!  Nice deal!

These are the kinds of things you do each and every week and you earn a little money and get a lot for FREE. 

Note: If you are in Maryland, my Evening Capital did NOT have the Bufferin coupon however my Baltimore Sun DID have the coupon – Just an FYI

(thanks iheartwags!)

Here are the match ups for Walgreens – good through 10/23/10.  If you are new to shopping with Walgreens, check our Store Guide to Walgreens here. Most Walgreens stores do not force you to cut a “Walgreens coupon” out of the sale circular , they simply allow it to be scanned.  Once in a while I have a new cashier or pharmacist that asks it be “clipped.”  Check with your local Walgreens.  Always hand over the manufacturers coupons first when “stacking” coupons.  After those are scanned THEN hand over the Walgreens coupons. Be sure to pick up the sale circular and take it around the store with you so you are sure to pick up the correct items in case the sale tag isn’t noted on the shelf. They are offering fresh pumpkins for $3.99 which isn’t a bad deal. Lets start with all the FREE things first.
