A week of brags. $83 worth of treats for the dog & gifts!

[ShopoholicAnonymous]

So I have had the craziest week at work, and I have oddly (not so oddly) had shopping as my stress release...

Picture #1
Saturday we did a major shop at Zellers and had so many great deals (including our cashier not ringing in the detergent!!!!!!)
Sunday we hit up SDM for some good deals (
Total OOP: $5

Picture #2
Sunday we did some wonderful shopping - I send packages every season to family over seas and I wanted to get the young girls some pretty dresses. I found these two dresses @15$ each at Old Navy. Such adorable dresses.
Total OOP: $33

Picture #3
Wednesday Evening SDM
- 2 John Frieda @2.00 each 5.00 WUB2 (but she would only give me 4.00 off)
- 2 Nestle Bar @1.32-1.00(2) = .60
- Milk 3.99
Total OOP: $5.00

Picture #4
RCSS Wednesday Evening
- 1 girls bikini @$12
- 1 girls dress @$19
_______________________$31
- 8 bags of Purina one @4/$1 - 2(2.00 off WUB1) = +2.00
- 4 little nivea @1.14 -2.00 = .80*4 = +3.20
- 5 nivea handsoap @2.04 - 2.00 = .16

I LOVE THIS LITTLE NIVEA TRICK! I was always wondering why people would "waste" the coupon on this duh, the moola goes towards your purchases! I should have done that with the other 5 niveas !!!!
I paid for all this, less than the cost of the dress & bikini BEFORE TAXES !!!!

Total OOP: $33

Picture #5
Over the past few weeks I've been collecting the $1 body lotions at BBW and getting the free travel size items. Now I have loads of the BOGO that I will use to stock up on gifts!
Total OOP: $6.60

Thanks everyone for your help/advice!

there were 2$ tearpads around zellers and SDM.

i've been using them to get 2 pack bars of nivea soap but everyone was getting the travel size which costs 1.14-2.00 coupon = +0.86$ which goes towards your purchase - rcss tends to allow you to redeem the full face value of the coupon!

so when i bought those little ones I made money which helped me pay less for the 2 items I really wanted to get (dress & bather) than their cost before tax!!

thats great...went to RCSS today and used the Finish coupon of $6 for the starter kit, but they have them priced at 3.94 so they adjusted the coupon and no overage for me oh well no complaints I still got the starter kit for free....and they could have just said no

[busy mother]

Definitely a great week for you. Great brag.
