Waiting on Sandy

While everyone else in the store was buying batteries and bottled water, I was buying nail clippers!  Another perk of having a stockpile - no need to run out at the last minute and buy essentials - I've got them downstairs already!

CVS

  • 2 Revlon Nail Clippers $3.29 each, got back $7 EB (WYB 2, Limit 6) = $0.42 profit
  • 4 Aveeno Lotions - three at $3.89 each and one at $7.99, used $1 peelie coupon and got back $15 EB (WYB 4, Limit 1) = $3.66
  • 6 papers $12
  • Used 25% off coupon - took off $9.31, $1 EB, $3 EB, $6 EB and $10 EB, total was $9.49.  My total cost for this transaction was $7.49
Rite Aid

  • 4 RA Tissues $1.50 each, got back two $2 UP's (WYB 2, Limit 2) = $2 or $0.50 each
  • Used $6 in UP's, total was $0.49 
I didn't get the extra monthly $1 UP for buying four, but others have reported that they did get this by purchasing the 230 count boxes.  The monthly deal is good until 10/30.

    I found the Covergirl MIR tearpad at another CVS today. I can send you 2 if you need them. Do you think the UP reward will print if the total is $19.98. We know that RA doesn't quite work like CVS.

    Thanks all, we're all doing ok. Today's my first day back at work in over a week and I'm grateful for the warmth. Still no power at the house. Hopefully it comes back today or tomorrow, another storm is coming!

    Glad you, the BF & pets are ok. I bet you're wishing you still had that wood stove now! Hope you get power back asap. I'm definitely missing your posts. Take care.
