Great Gift Card Deal

ShopRite

  • Golden Delicious Apples $1.29/lb = $3.88
  • Lowes $25 gift card, got back $5 catalina = $5 profit
  • Total was $28.88
Bought three additional $25 Lowes cards - $20 profit in total.  The deal also works on Lane Bryant, Marriott and Visa gift cards.

CVS - picked up six papers and paid with EB's and a gift card

Walgreens

  • 4 Right Guard Total Defense 5 Body Wash $4.49 each, BOGO sale, used two $3 off 2 coupons (printable, no longer available) and got back $4 RR (WYB 4) = $1.02 profit
  • 10 Kleenex Tissues (100 ct) $0.99, used nine $1 coupons (bought these on ebay, they're from a Spanish paper) = $0.90 or $0.09 each
  • 16 Scotch Bubble Mailers $0.39 each
  • Total was $12.16
Walgreens registers beep when you use a coupon that's higher than the value of the item (ie. $1 coupon on $0.99 item).  But if you buy multiple items and use one less coupon, you're still paying and the registers are happy = no beeps.  I went to another store after this and used up the rest of my coupons.
