I am back from Canada, and was so excited to hit the stores today! I was not excited about shopping without rewards, however. I used up all my rewards that would expire before I got back, so I really needed my shopping trip today to put some money back in my pocket so that next week I can get the high percentage savings I am used to!!
I ended up spending only $21.94 before tax, and I earned $30 in rewards for the purchases. Here is how it worked out:
5 Stayfree - these were on sale at CVS for $2 and I had 5 $2/1 coupons, so they were all free.
2 Finesse shampoo - these were on sale at CVS for $2.99 each. I used my only remaining rewards ($3) on these, so they cost just under $3, and I made $4 in rewards.
2 Venus razors - these cost $8.49 at CVS. I used 2 $4/1 coupons, so they were only $4.49, and each one gave me back $5 in rewards.
4 Crest mouthwash. These were on sale at Rite Aid for $4.99 each. I bought 2 of the big ones and had 2 coupons to get the small ones free when you buy big ones. The great thing is that each one of them generated $4 in rewards. So I spent $10 to buy all 4, and I got back $16 in rewards! Amazing!
I also bought some stuff I need for my own household, like diapers, and earned another $18 in rewards. If you can wait for the promotions to come around, you can get rewards back to buy almost anything. So I am going into next week with $48 in store rewards to score some freebies for Upward Bound House:)
