Wow...

I haven't posted in over a month. Well, the deals have been few and far between so there hasn't been much to post in that area. It's not looking to get any better either considering Ralphs has changed their double coupon policy. Ralphs will now double a coupon up to a maximum of $1 which means that a .50 coupon will be $1 but so will a .75 coupon. All coupons are $1 or above will be accepted at face value. Needless to say this is not good news. I will be boycotting Ralphs until they change their policy back and I encourage everyone to do the same.

I did get some deals at CVS today.

Colgate toothpaste is $2.99 and you get a $2 ECB back for each one (limit 5). I used 1 $1.50 coupon and 4 $1 coupons to make these better than free.

Schick Intuition Plus razors are $8.88 and you get a $6 ECB back (limit 1). This was a moneymaker when I used a $4 coupon... a profit of $1.12 to be exact.

Centrum Cardio vitamins are $9.99 and you get a $1 ECB back. I used a $3 coupon to make these $5.99 after the ECB. At face value this doesn't look like a great deal but I am sending for a cash back rebate for the original shelf price of $9.99. Total profit is $4!

I used ECBs to pay for all of this so my total OOP was $1.37.

Not much is happening at Vons this week.

Sure deoderant is free with a $1 coupon that I got in the mail.
Tava drinks are free with a $1.50 printable coupon.
Aquafresh Extreme Clean toothpaste is free with $1.50 coupon.

I have decided to make a second blog for any non-deal stuff (like my Rascal Flatts adventures and random thoughts. I haven't made it yet but I will post here when I have... just in case anyone cares to read about it.
