I took advantage of sc johnson latest coupons & zellers sale...good timing

[maddie2008]

So I finally broke down and used my first set of printed coupons. Figured what the heck.

I used SC Johnson's latest emailed coupons.
At Zellers the Ziploc XL storage bags were on for $4.97 and used 4x$4 coupon so it made them .97 each, and the Scrubbing Bubbles Gel Discs were on sale for 2/$5 and used 4/$3 coupons so they paid me .50 each for them , also found on clearance the Garnier Fructis Hair Styling Aid for 99cents and i used a $2 coupon(not SCJ) to get both free, as well as I had to try the Ziploc steam bags since I had a coupon so i paid $1.76 for that. I was gonna price match at walmart but my store wants to see the ad and I didn't have it, so I just went to Zellers.
Actual savings on my receipt from Zellers showed $50.84

Then I went to walmart and got 4 of the Glade candles using the SCJ printed coupons(all at once) they were $4.97 and used 4x$4 coupon, plus get the $5 mail in GC.

Total for the day was $9.62

More shopping on wednesday without the grumpy husband this time(if I can't reach something, I am sure some cute stockboy will reach for me )

You got some good deals except for the "Olivieri coupons at grocery store for free pasta and sauce as well as the Juicy Jumbos(not pictured)." There is a post on thsi site somewhere from Boo, they are not valid and not to be used.

Okay, will remember that Colsgirl. Was only told link was not valid, but now I know otherwise. Thanks

good deals. how many bags are in each box of the ziploc giant bags?

[maddie2008]

There are 4 in each box of XL, but there is still an XXL which i think has 3 in it, but my store was sold out of them. Perfect for freshly laundered comforters/blankets/sheets etc...

I haven't figure out how to use the ziploc big bag Wondering how strong are those bags, i.e. how long will they last if you use them frequently.

jlh- the ziploc big bags are super thick,even have a handle at the top of the bag.
I use them to put fresh laundered blankets sheets and comforters in and seal it up. It also helps me keep my cats from getting into the blankets(which they do to hide their toys). I also put stuffed animals in them instead of just throwing them in the attic. I put my xmas garland them and put in attic. Believe it or not, my husband actually took all my purses out of the closet and put them into one of these bags. So many uses.
I have been using them since they first came out couple years ago, and still have ALL of them. Have never had one rip or damage, even pulling it out of attic. Don't think of them as you typical sandwich bag or grocery bag, they are much better quality.

Thanks for the details I guess I could move tons of my brand new stuff animals in these bags, and empty my containers for other usage Guess it is time to run to buy some
