Target 5/9/09; (You CAN save money without double/triple coupons!)


So here was my shopping trip to Target yesterday. I have only included the things I bought with a coupon here. I also bought OJ....I'm out of Tropicana coupons :( ....some Archer Farms bread....and some bath loofas...which you don't find coupons for anyway. Other than that, I only bought items I had a coupon for that were on sale or I could get for ridiculous prices.
I got a large number of these printables from the site I check - I rarely do the research, I get them from blogs and websites.
Some of the others (5 of the ice creams & the bread) I found while I was shopping & because I had my coupon binder, I was able to get free and almost free ice cream!
Here's my savings:

Last weekend haul: Target

So I pretty much got paid to shop at Walgreens, got everything for free at CVS and saved a bunch at Target...as Monk would say...here's what happened...

TARGET:



Oreos: I usually only get these when they are on sale for $2.50..(this deal was a hair better)

On sale for $2.75 x 2 = $5.50 - $1.00 Target coupon/2 = $2.25 each

Dole salad:

Regular price = $2.99 / on sale for $1.99 -$1.00 Target coupon = $.99

Johnson's baby lotion

Regular $2.24 - $1.00 Manufacturer - $.75 Target = $.49

Market Pantry fruit snacks
Regular $1.77 / on sale for 1.44 - $1.00 Target coupon = $.44

Smart water (I only buy with a coupon)

$1.00 - $.50 Manuf = $.50



Orange Juice

On sale for $2.75 (reg $3.25) - $1.00 Manuf - $1.75



Pumice stone & face exfoliaters - on the clearance aisle! Watch those end caps, you can find great deals and when you have a coupon for something there, you can really make out!

total 25.21
I had $6.25 in coupons
------------------------------
the coupons alone saved me 25% on this trip!

If you add in that all but one of these things were on sale (remember, combine sale w/coupons) here's out it would turn out:

29.19
-3.98 due to sale prices
-6.25 coupons
---------
35% savings with sale prices & coupons

and I only bought 11 things!

(don't forget, I don't include my discount in these posts)
