Not a whole lot for Extra Bucks from this trip but it was still good. The Colgate, Kleenex, Nail Polish, Spices and the Cranberry stuff was all BOGO Free. With coupon matchups the tissues .69 for 2 boxes and the toothpaste, nailpolish, and mascara were all free. I also got a gallon of milk and 2 candy bars they didn't make it to the picture. My goal with my CVSing is to get milk, bread, soda, and any essentials they sell for free which is why I buy tons of toothpaste when I already have 15 tubes of it. But buying the free toothpaste makes my milk free.

I broke even on Extra Bucks and ended up with $4.99 on a money card because of a mistake in ringing me up.

We went to see the Tampa Bay Lightning practice but apparently since they decided to fire their coach they canceled practice. But all was not lost there is a nice mall in Brandon and a Target with friendly cashiers.

Target Trips (2)

Target has a promotion running for buy 4 glade holiday products and you get a $5 GC. Combine with manufacturer coupons and it's a great deal. You can find a coupon for the goody's hair items on their website. A note about the glade deal it is limited to one per transaction so find a nice cashier and ask if you can do 2 different transactions.

Spent $4.28 on GC
Savings $20
Plus $10 in GC recieved.

Bath and Body Works

Shawn and I each used one of the free Scentport/Wallflower coupons I got in my email. He bought the box for $1 and got his scentport free. I bought the 4 foaming soaps (I love these) and got the scentport free and the sleep lotion. I've found that B&BW gives out quite a few coupons and they email you some really good ones too, so make sure you give them your email when you go in.

There was nothing to great today but I had to get an ad from Publix so I did a small trip. Personally I do much better with a paper ad in my hand than I do online, but I forgot to buy the paper yesterday.

I could have done better but my hubby needed the soda now for a headache. The muffin mixes are great since they only require a 1/2 cup of milk to be added. Some of them will be donated to the food bank for holiday meals and the rest are going to be put into my stockpile.

This is how I make a tight budget stretch to it's furthest. Feel free to copy what I do and let me know when you save more $$.
