Rite Aid Trip 2/24/13

So my boyfriend wants to learn how to coupon like me, finally! We watched extreme couponing together and since that episode the other day (it was a re-run, we watched a bunch - some kind of mini marathon? lol) he has been set that he is going to learn!

He started with free samples yesterday too... lol he makes me laugh!

So to start him off I wanted him to pick a store and work on that one first. I got us two envelopes (one for each of us) and gave each of us coupons to start.

Here is our multiple shopping trips condensed:

Rich (the boyfriend) :

(3) Poise products at $2.99   -$3 coupon (x3 of them)
(4) Nivea lip balm @ 2/$3     -$3 off 2  (x2 of them)
(2) Naturemade Mini vitamins BOGO free @ $14.99    - $3 off 1 (x2 of them)  & $2 off 1 (rite aid email coup)
Paid about ~$7.25 for everything (tax and mainly the vitamins)
Got back $2.99 +up (total of two)

Got back:

$2.99 poise +up (x2 of them)

$2 dove +up

$3 bandaid neosporin +up  (x2 of them)

$2 clairol +up  (x3 of them) (I am guessing I got three because the cashier scanned another one in by accident?)

& $2.68 towards my axe/tresseme/suave deal! 

Pretty successful trip I would say!! Paid a little more then I meant to, but that is why we roll our money over, to get more... I just was being impatient and couldn't wait the extra day to roll... ahhh!

Hope this inspires you! I will keep you updated on our trips, it should be fun!
