Target Trip

So I thought I would take a different turn today with my blog post.  Don't worry, I have a doctor's appt. on Monday, so I'm sure I will update on the baby situation then.  Still crazy to believe I am almost 32 weeks.  It is going way too fast!  Today I wanted to write about my Target trip.  Remember, I am getting back into my deal shopping :)  I started slow today and only got a few things, but I got a few great things for only a few dollars! 

Here is what I purchased:

Dove Men Body Wash-on clearance for $1.98
used $1 Target coupon + $1 Manufacturer coupon
=Free

Dove Deep Clean Body Wash- $3.79
used $1.50 Target coupon + $1 Manufacturer coupon
=$1.29

Rimmel Mascara- $2.99
used $2.00 Manufacturer coupon
=$0.99

Special Promotion:
2 Diet Pepsi skinny cans (pack of 4) $1.99 each
2 People Magazines $4.49 each
automatically took $6 off my total since I purchased 2 diet pepsis
used Buy 1, Get 1 free Diet Pepsi coupons
used 2 $2.00 People magazine coupons
=0.97 for 2 packs of Pepsi & 2 People magazines (will give one to my mom :))

Total purchase=$3.25 (not including tax)

Awesome price for 7 items, including: 2 body washes, mascara, 2 magazines, & 2 packs of Pepsi!!!  Needless to say I will be continuing my deal shopping!  Did anyone watch Extreme Couponing the other night?  Awesome, but crazy!  Who needs 75 boxes of pasta!!  They did inspire me to start couponing at grocery stores, just not to such extremes...

Thanks! I've always wanted to start deal shopping, but never know where to begin. I guess there is a lot of controversy about coupon fraud on that Extreme Couponing show. I wish they would donate 95% of their "purchases"!! Who needs 60 boxes of cereal??

I almost said outloud as I started reading this post, "Did you watch Extreme Couponing the other night?" But you mentioned it at the end. I didn't see it the other night (didn't realize it was a series and I recorded it about a month ago). I watched it and a guy bought over 2,000 boxes of Chex cereal and made a pyramid in his driveway out of them. Wanna know how much he paid for them....nadda! But he gave alot of his free purchases to food pantrys and churches.

Good deals! I read this post and then had to go to the grocery store and I got eggs for 9 cents at Kroger! I thought of you!
