Happy First Day of Spring

Finished out the Aveeno deal today.  I'd bought one bottle of lotion yesterday - $4.79 after 20% discount, $5.99 reg price, and since the system rounds up, that counted as $5 worth.  So today, I bought another two - 

  • Aveeno Baby Lotion $4.79 ($5.99 reg price, 20% discount), used $2 circular coupon and $1 coupon (2/26 SS) = $1.79 *Counts towards spend $15, get back $5 UP (Limit 2) promo 
  • Palmer "Little Beauty" chocolate bunny $0.69 ($0.88 reg price, 20% discount)
  • Used $2 UP, totalw as $0.87
Then separately, I bought another - 

  • Aveeno Baby Lotion $4.79 ($5.99 reg price, 20% discount), used $2 circular coupon and $1 coupon (2/26 SS) = $1.79 *Counts towards spend $15, get back $5 UP (Limit 2) promo  
  • 2 Plastic Storage Boxes $0.80 ($1 reg price, 20% discount)
  • Used $2 UP, total was $1.04 and I got back $5 UP for the Aveeno deal
So in total, I spent $5.37 on the Aveeno lotions and got back $5 UP so $0.37 or $0.12 each.  I was going to buy another Neosporin Essentials Trial Pack but I realized last night that these are made by J&J.  I had a terrible issue with some J&J rebates a couple years ago and its made me really hesitate to do any others.  I'll probably send away for the rebate on the one I bought yesterday and call it a day.  Although, I could buy one at Walgreens and get a rebate receipt, hmm.  Something to think about.


I was looking out into our back yard the other day and spotted something yellow way in the distance.  Da boyfriend volunteered to saunter out there with the camera and low and behold, we have daffodils!  

Definitely a nice surprise and very spring-ish.
