$5 Challange- Jan 25th

Posted by Jennifer Billy on January 25, 2010

Since Emma and I were both sick today I had to make my shopping trip as quick and easy as possible. So I could have broken up my purchases to make my out of pocket cost a little lower but I still stayed under my $5. I also made some stock piling purchases that I will add.

I started with $1 Register Reward from last week.

Transaction #1

(3) A&W Root Beer 3/$4
(3) Reach Toothbrushes
(2) Pert Plus for men
Total: $14.67
Used $1.50 coupon for Pert Plus men from 1/24 SS
Used $1 off coupon for Pert plus from 1/24 SS
Used BOGO Reach toothbrush from 1/3 RP- saved $1.89
Used two $1 off coupons from 10/18 RP- saved $2
Used Walgreens in ad coupon for reach toothbrushes- saved $2.70
Used $1 Register Reward
Final Price: $4.58 ($5.42 with tax)

Got $4 in Register Rewards

Total Out Of pocket: $4.58 ($5.42 with tax)
