1 X huggies wipes 2.99
and other stuff totaling $46.

I had 1 p&g insert coupon for $1 and another for $2

Total points earned 22,200
i used VIP 3000, 3000, 2000, 2000
personal bp 3000 for any pampers
20X wus $40

Pretty happy with this shop! If I keep going like this, my baby's diapers and wipes will be next to nothing!

I'm a bit confused as to what was actually spent. Did @joandstef spend:
1) a total spend of $46
or 2) $31.96 + other stuff totaling $46 to make it a total spend of $77.96?

I can actually see it being taken both ways so either the group who think she spent $40 or the group who think she spent $80 might be getting excited over nothing. I don't get interpretive dance much less interpretive math... :shrug:

I'm just insanely confused over here... Lmao 😂

I think OP paid $46 for the shop. Then he/she is talkin about the coupons used in that transaction.

Her pts tell me that her subtotal before coupons was $46, so $43 after coupons, which is why I said ~$40 spent, and ~$40 pts earned.

$40 cash to get $80 product

NOT $40 cash to get $40 product and $40 cash (which would make things free)

OOP $40

I don't know what is so complicated - if shopping at SDM were truly "free" the aisles would be crowded with the poor and needy. You actually have to pay money to take things out of the store.

I would love to see the credit card balances of all the people who are getting stuff for 100% "free" lol.

Whatever you spent, it was a pretty good shop. The other option is no diapers which isn't really an option, right? And you can renew the points into more diapers. :top:

Another new life costs money (you can put it off, but they eat eventually) so any savings is great.

Agree :) I calculated it out when I had my first and just barebones sdm points, buying diapers on 20x the points events and then redeeming those points for diapers worked out to every 5th box free :) if you are using bonus points, coupons, mega redemptions, etc even better. No ones place to tell you if your savings weren't good enough. If you were happy with it then that's all that matters. People on here count 1000 PC plus points as "$1" all the time when showing their savings so why all the crust over the optimum points lol. Or hell! People ALWAYS count checkout 51 as money off. And yes EVENTUALLY you will get a cheque. But you paid that $5 first. If you use your points like you would a cheque it's exactly the same thing just a "gift card" versus "cash" really :)
