Newbie brag! saved $215.14 at London Drugs *pics* + WM too
So I've only been actively couponing for about 2 months, but I live way out of town so I have to plan my LD trips carefully! I'm pretty proud of myself, though I could have pricematched better and had my list organized better. I had my stacks mostly organized in the CD case that I use for coupons, and then I had a bunch of paperclips in my pocket, and as I shopped I clipped each stack together and put it underneath the product.
I saved $215.14, and spent $79.65. I should have spent less, but grabbed the large size of swiffer cloths that was not on sale and didn't notice when it rang in $10 higher than I planned. oops! It took 45 minutes at the CS counter to ring it all through.

I also stopped in at walmart earlier in the day to grab some olay body washes - tried to do some pricematching too, which didn't work out so well. I was trying to pm formula and diaper genie refills. First the CS people told me I couldn't pm the stores I wanted to, so I had them call the manager who confirmed it was fine. THEN when I tried to use a coupon that Nestle sent for the formula, they said I couldn't use it because I had already pricematched, and the coupon says "not to be combined with any other offer." :shrug: I emailed WM this morning for clarification on that policy. Anyway I did end up getting the formula, olay, and 2 diaper genie refills for $30.18, and I did use a $5 playtex coupon on the refills since it didn't have any exclusions after being very closely scrutinized!
