New Tearpad Coupons

I work across the street from a CVS.  I walked over with a co-worker and we found these new tearpads coupons out. 
**UPDATE** No picture but Harris Teeters has Try Me .50/1 Dannon Greek Yogurt peelies on their end cap yogurt sale.  I stopped by after work and found them.  Dannon is on sale 10/10 = $1.00 each.  The peelie doubles so the greek yogurt is free.  I got 5 yogurts today; however, I will stop by on my way in to work in the am. if they are still there I plan on getting more.  I am not fond of coupon shelf clearers so I do try to give others a chance to take advantage. But this is one of my favorite yogurts so I might have to clear a shelf ;-)

Coupon Trading

I have been trading for a few weeks now.  It is totally hit or miss.  When the coupons are a hit (i.e like the CVS Bertolli deal with $1.50/1 Bertolli Coupons or the $1/1 Lipton for the Giant Food Deal) the hit is out of the park; however, the miss is like why did I waste my time and a stamp.  A good coupon trader is a definite keeper.

Today was an odd Serendipity in couponing trading as these 2 coupons came today from 2 different couponers in 2 different states.  These coupons pair nicely together.  I hope to use them with a back to school / football season and tailgating sale

New Tear Pads and Peelies spotted

I had to take my son to the dentist which is next door to a Giant.  Ran in to see if Nabisco or Keebler coupons books were out  :-(  I have not spotted them anywhere in my area yet :-(     But I did come across these tearpads and peelie.

Saturday night I got 83,000 points added to the my Wags card due some awesome double dip sales.  Today I cashed in used 10,000 points + (10) $2/1 IP Reach Toothbrush Q + paid tax only and got back $20.00 in catalina Register Rewards.  I did this deal at 2 different Walgreen stores.  At each store I did 5 separate transactions so I could get a $2RR with each transaction
I purchased (1) 2 pack Reach toothbrush for $2.99
Used $2/1 IP Coupon
Used 1,000 points
Paid .17cents in tax.
Rinse and Repeat 9 more times
each transaction also printed $5/30 coupon expires 7/31. So not a lot of time to really take advantage of all of them.

87 cent Gain Laundry Detergent at Rite Aid

30 Load Original Gain Powder Laundry Detergent is ringing up $1.87 at Rite Aid.  Use the $2/2 coupon and Gain comes out to 87cents each.  My store had 4 - so I purchased all 4 :-) Kept 2 and donated 2 to the Feds Feed Families Program

Delayed Giant Food Haul from last Saturday

Giant Foods is not a store I go to because of its location.  However, a $5/30 coupon from an insert that came in the mail peaked my interest.  Then my interest really peaked as I found $1/1 Ragu coupons at Harris Teeters and I received $1/1 Lipton from a coupon trade.  I don't have my receipt but my bank account says I spent $9.30.  I do remember a little over $2.00 was tax (double tax - state and county).
I purchased:
(2) Peach and Milk Fruitare bars - missing from the picture
(4) 100 Lipton tea bags - we are a teetotalers so we go thru a lot of homemade tea
(6) jars of Ragu
(2) 8packs of Powerade Zero (yeah Coke codes!)
(3) Gatorades

In hindsight it would have been cheaper if I would have given them $5/30 FIRST then my Giant card.  But they scanned the Giant card first and my total was shy of $30.00 so I had to grab some gatorades last minute (but thankfully I found a $50/2 Q in my purse for the Gatorades lol)
Coupons used:
$5/30
$7 instant savings on Unilver products (Ragu, Lipton, Fruitare)
(2) $1/1 Fruitate
(4) $1/1 Lipton - expiring over the weekend so I had to use them quickly
(6) $1/1 Ragus- coupon says limit 2 but it scans at several stores with no beeps unlike other Unilver coupons
(2)  .75/1 Powerade multipack- which doubled to $1.50 off the $3.99 sale price
(1)  .50/2 Gatorades
