Right On, Rite Aid! Only $18.63 for $116.38 of goods

BLACK FRIDAY '09
Printed two of each of these: $5 off $25 from HERE + $5 off $25 from HERE and used them in two different transactions (which was slightly annoying to the person behind me in line, but oh well!). I know these aren't organic or natural deals, but what you don't use for your family, you can donate!

Gilette Fusion 8 ct refill $24.99, get 7oz Satin Care shave gel FREE ($3.49 value)
$3 coupon on refills (these are expensive, but my husband insists on using these!)
$1 scr on gel
$.55 off on gel
= $1.55 overage on the gel makes for cheap(er) refills! = saved $4.55 off the refills - maybe I can talk hubby into a different brand?!! My total would have been so much cheaper without these!

Oral B Corss action tooth brush - was $4.99, on sale for $2.99
+ $2 SCR
+ $0.75 coupon
= $0.24

Herbal Essence shampoo was $4.49 ea, on sale for $2.99ea.
+ $2.00 SCR
+ Buy one, get styler for free, so I grabbed a hairspray ($2.99 value)
= TWO items for $0.99

Schick 12 pack disposable razors to donate - was $7.79, on sale for $0.99
+ $1.00 coupon
= FREE

Schick Intuition Plus razor these are usually $9.99, on sale for $1.99!!

Schick Titanium Razor these are usually $10.99, on sale for $1.99!!

Scope Outlast 750 ml mouthwash - was $3.99
+ $3.00 SCR
+ $1.oo coupon

Tylenol extra strength - BOGO @ $4.99
+ $2 coupon off 1
+ ANOTHER $2 off 1
= $0.99 for BOTH

Flex-a-min glucosomine vitamins - BOGO, I got the $14.99 one = the cheapest one!
+ $6 off coupon
+ ANOTHER $6 off coupon
= $2.99 for BOTH (would have been $29.98)

Special K Blueberry cereal - 2/$5
+ $1 pritable coupon from HERE
+ ANOTHER of the above $1 coupon
= $1.50 each (reg $4.79 ea!)
= $36.64 - $5/$25, - $5/$25

= $26.64 out of pocket (BUT, I had a $20 gift certificate from the old Fall Gift of Savings promotion, so it was actually only $6.64 out of pocket for me!!!
- $8 in SCR
= $18.64 for all of the above after SCR! (for me = $1.36 moneymaker!)
(total would have been $71.39 before all the coupons & SCR!)
My total would have been so much cheaper if my husband didn't insist on using those expensive Fusion razor refills! Oh well, what I saved on the rest of the trip helped pay for his splurge?! ... at least I had a coupon + those extra savings!
_____________
Then in 2nd transaction, bought:
Sonicare Essence toothbrush - reg $83.99 - on sale for $44.99
+ $5 SCR
+ $10 coupon
+$10 mail-in rebate
= $19.99 = a BARGAIN compaired to $83.99, or even $44.99!!!
- the two $5 off coupons = $34.99 out of pocket
= $9.99!!!!!!!!!!!!! after the SCR + mail-in rebate!
(total would have been $44.99 if no coupon, rebate or SCR!)
______________

SO, my total for both transactons would have been $116.38, but out of pocket I spent $61.63, but when I get my SCRs, it'll be $48.63 and after sonicare rebate will be $38.63, BUT, I also had my old Fall gift of savings $20, so for me, it was $18.63!
I should also get the new winter $20 Gift of Savings gift check that's going on now, since I spent over $100 before coupons - pretty sure they count it as before coupons!  So, more savings in my future!
______________
Be sure you clip every single coupon and hold onto them becaue you never know when you can score a freebie or a cheapie!! What you don't use for your family, you can donate!
