Couldn't Let those Bath Buddies Q's Go to Waste...

A couple weeks back, I thought there was going to be a great deal at CVS involving J&J bath buddies. I participate in a coupon exchange on the MSN message boards and I received a ton of these coupons from my houndfriends. The deal fell through, but I would hate to let all these Q's go to waste, so I've been trying to use them up before their 8/23 expiration date. I needed cat litter anyway, so I went over to Target:
  • 2 Tidy Cats cat litters $6.49 each, used two $1 coupons (6/29 SS)
  • 2 Tidy Cats litter pads $4.49 each, used two $1 coupons (6/29 SS)
  • 1 Mighty Dog food - used freebie coupon (8/10 SS) = FREE
  • 10 bath buddies $0.94 each, cashier pushed coupons through for $1 each so $0.60 profit
  • Total was $19.60 - ouch! But at least I'm set on litter for a while. I've been trying to find a deal on this stuff, but I've had no luck. I can't even find this litter in pet stores - isn't that weird?!?

CVS

  • 6 bath buddies $0.99 each = FREE
  • CVS trial size $0.99, used $2 CVS skincare Q = $1 overage
  • CVS pretzels $0.99 = FREE w/overage from skincare coupon
  • Total was $0.35

Different store:

  • 6 bath buddies = FREE
  • CVS trial size $0.99, used $2 CVS skincare Q = $1 overage
  • 2 bags popcorn 2 for $3
  • Used $2 off $10, total was $0.13

I havent seen that litter anywhere else except target...maybe they have an exclusive deal there for it. I also haven't seen that litter box anywhere else but there too. Glad you got all of your bath buddies! Now you can use them to clean your bathtub :oP....sonny boy can teach you lol.

I've also seen it at Walmart, but like you, that's definitely not my favorite store and I really try to avoid shopping there.

I gave a bunch of bath buddies to friends and the rest are going to the local food pantry. I'm actually sick of buying these suckers!
