I heard about an excellent greeting card deal at Rite Aid today so I just had to go check it out. In their flyer this week is a coupon for $3/3 American Greeting cards. Well, American Greeting has a $0.99 line of greeting cards. So if you buy 3 of those and use the coupon for $3/3, you get them free! You can't beat free!
Here is my transaction:
1 Stayfree 24ct super $2.49 (originally $3.99)
1 Stayfree 24 ct super $2.49
3 American Greeting cards $2.97
Total - $7.95 - $3 (card coupon) - $1/1 Stayfree coupon - $3.99 (BOGO Stayfree coupon) + tax = $0.34
Plus, I got $1.49 in UP Rewards (similar to ECBs) to use next time!
I'll be donating the Stayfree to the homeless shelter/food pantry and the cards i'll be using for a few upcoming birthdays.

2 Stove Top Stuffings = $1.54 (I used 2 coups for $0.50/1) = $0.54
2 Colgate Toothbrushes = $5.98 (I used 2 coups for $1/1) = $3.98
1 Skintimate Shave gel = $3.49 (I used a coup for $0.55/1) = $2.94
Total - $9.95 - $2.99 in ECB's = $6.96 +tax = $8.01
I got $8.50 in ECBs to use in my next order.
Transaction #2
3 Pepsi 12pks = $10.00
Total - $10.00 - $8.50 ECBs +tax = $2.28
I got $2 in ECBs to use on my next order.

Pretzel Dippers
This would be something fun and easy to put in your children's lunch boxes.
8 oz. block cheddar cheese (I like to use mild) or whatever cheese you like
16 skinny pretzel rods
1. Cut the block of cheese into 16 cubes.
2. Let the cheese sit at room temperature for a few minutes. Insert one end of the pretzel rod into the cheese cube.
3. You can serve these with honey mustard on the side for dipping.

CVS Trip 3/17
I typically only go CVS'ing on Sundays, but today I stopped by there on my way home from work to see if they had restocked the Purex 3n1 sheets, they had not. But, I did score some super good deals from their clearance baskets! Here is what I got:
1 Axe Body Wash (marked down to $1.89) = $1.89
5 bags of Nestle Semi Sweet Morsels (marked down to $0.89) = $4.45
4 Nestle Crunch Bars (for husby's lunch) $0.99 ea (buy 2 get 1 free) = $2.97
1 Always Pantiliners (20 ct) $1.49 - $1.00/1 coup = $0.49
1 Excedrin PM (8 ct) $0.99 - $0.99/1 coup that printed from the kiosk = Free
Total = $10.30 - $9.80 (ECBs) = $0.49 OOP
I'm donating a bag of the chocolate chips and the pantiliners to the food pantry/homeless shelter.
