SDM Optimum Deals *October 19th-22nd*

[Justa Sobriquet]

The 2nd coupon link posted has a "one coupon per person" limit (stated on the face of the coupon) so you can't clear the shelves or get a discount on multiples of the same item.

This is great but I just can't see myself showing up at the cashier with 30 printable of the same coupon. Reminds me of the chocolate fiasco last year!

I actually worked one out but it was not worth it

[brennen7]

Great idea for a post. Thank you very much.. Just a quick question, isn't the Aveeno coupon $2 and not $2.50???

It is the $5 WUB any 2 Aveeno product.

However one note, the Clean And Clear coupon states one per person

Some places will let you use more then one it just depends on the store. They get their money back because the manufacture can't tell how the products were sold all they know is the store did buy that amount from them.

Unless my math is messed up, if you happened to receive an 18,500 point offer this week (until October 18), I think you could do a pretty good Dove offer: You could buy 12 each shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and deodorant, for a total of 48 items at @$2.99 and add 15 packs of Dove soap bars at $1.99. Price before coupons (or tax) is (48 X 2.99) + (15 x 1.99) = $173.37. You could redeem 50000 Optimum points for $85 and there are several different coupons for $1 off each Dove product for coupon savings of $63 (or more if you have higher value Dove coupons). Out of pocket would be $173.41 less $85.00 redemption less $63.00 coupons = $25.37. You will have spent more than $75 before coupons so you earn 18,500 points, plus you have 21 groups of 3 Dove products for a further (21 x 1500 pts = 31,500). When you add the 18,5000 points to the 31,500 points you should break even on the Optimum points. So you would get 63 assorted Dove products for $25.21 or about 40 cents each (plus tax).

Just a question... what coupon are you using for the bar soap?

[alildizzy]

The bar soap coupon I have is from a Red Plum Insert, I'm not sure of the date it might by 07/06/13, but it's got Degree on the cover.

I'm think that coupon is only valid on the 4 bar and the 2 bar is the one on sale I'm working on a break down and I will share once I figure it out.

[alildizzy]

Yes, brennen7, you are right it is for the 4 bar soap set. I used it yesterday without noticing that (just on 2 sets but I still feel bad). So that would change the price to $41.27 for 63 items, or around $.63 each.

I am interested in seeing your calculations, you are much better at it than I am. You just inspired me to give it a try.

Don't fell bad mistakes happen and that one was hard to notice... I'm sure the store will get their money back because they go by the sales store wide. Also I just noticed looking at my coupons that I had 17 $2 Deodorant Coupons thanks to you!
