frugal friday {8.7}

two stops today: food lion + cvs

CVS
What I bought:
2 pkgs of Pampers @ $10 sale price each + 2 $1 coupons + $5 ecb = $6.50 each
Blink Tears @ $7.99 sale price + $1.50 coupon + $7.99 ECB = Free + $1.50 overage
Irish Spring body wash @ 4.99 + $2 coupon + $2 ECB = $0.99

Summary:
Total @ Full Retail = $38.96
Sale savings = $5.98
Coupons = $5.50
Paid out of pocket before taxes = $20.48 (used $5 off $25 and $2 ECBs)
Total Savings (after ECBs) = $26.47 (68%)
ECBs for next time: $14.99

Food Lion
One disappointing thing on this trip... the cashier was having some trouble getting a few coupons to scan so she had a couple of piles going. When she claimed to be done, I thought there were a couple she hadn't scanned, but I wasn't sure. Turns out I was right and should've spoken up (but I didn't). So, I should've gotten six jars of Beech Nut baby food for 4 cents each, but she didn't ring up two coupons so I didn't :( What's annoying is that since she took the coupons, they are wasted. Oh well.

Deals Worth Talking About:
Baby bib: $0.99 + $1 FL Home 360 coupon = free
40 wipes: $1.62 + $1.50 FL coupon = $0.12
Hand Sanitizer: on sale @ $1.29 + $1.00 FL coupon = $0.29
Lysol dual action wipes: on closeout @ $1.44 + $1 on 2 coupon = $0.94 each
Gerber baby food (3 jars): $2.37 + $1.00 FL coupon + $.75 catalina coupon = $0.21 each

Summary
Total @ Full Retail = $118.04
MVP savings = $28.88
Coupons = $16.90
Paid OOP = $72.26
Total Savings = $45.78 (39%)
