Blue Light Special

October 16, 2008 by Amy

Ok, coupon queens, get ready!  I’ve been couponing heavily at CVS for a year now and I was blown away by this one.  K-Mart has a deal for a few days where you can double coupons up to $2! Glade also has a deal where you buy two plug-ins for $4.19 each, there is a B1G1 coupon and you get TWO $4 coupons back!!  And I had 4 B1G1 coupons!

Everything in that picture is worth $135.  I did 5 transactions rolling over my money to buy more of the Glade until the 5th I did everything else and paid with the money I earned.  For each of the Glade transactions, I paid .78 and for the last transaction ith everything else, my total was $99 and I paid SIXTY THREE CENTS!!!!!  AND had EIGHT DOLLARS LEFT!  K-Mart PAID ME money to take all that home!

    That is insanity. I’m sure they hate it when people do that, but I LOVE it. 😀

    I felt worse for the customers behind us. I did let people go in front of me between transactions but the last one was a doozy.

    Just wanted you to know – I had a dream last night that you and Heather and I went shopping at a pharmacy and for every $1 we spent we got $3 in cash – on the spot. We were getting rich!
