Results from a Mini Shopping Run to Walgreens, CVS, & Walmart

Results of today's mini shopping run:



Here's what we scored on today:

Walmart:

1 Scrubbing Bubbles One Step Kit
1 Crave Cat Treats
1 6 roll pk of bath tissue
1 Brawny trash bags

Walgreens:

4 Act II popcorn singles
1 plastic Halloween tumbler
3 Reese's Peanut Butter Pumpkins

CVS:

1 Covergirl Foundation Compact
1 Covergirl Invisible Concealer

Retail Price for all items: $34.78
Total after store sales & coupons: $6.33




Plus I got two new coupons from the CVS kiosk :)

Now - the problem I had at Walmart with the One Step Scrubbing Bubbles - they were out of the ones for the advertised sale.  But, the ones on the shelf contained the exact same items, just not the flashy yellow panel on the box.  Luckily, my cashier was able to allow the transaction at the sale price!! Thank goodness - I missed the deal last time all together and really wanted to try it out.  So, if you run into this problem, have your Walmart weekly ad handy and just ask.  Can't guarantee they will do it for everyone, but if you are just purchasing one, give it a try!

Here is the breakdown of each transaction: 

Walmart:

Scrubbing Bubbles on sale for $3.97 - $4 MNFC = FREE w/ $0.03 overage

The really funny thing today, my hubby had ran to Walmart this morning and thought he would assist me by picking up a few items of our shopping list and using coupons himself.  He came back with oil for his car and 2 O-Cel-O no scratch sponges.



O-Cel-O Sponges on sale for $0.98 ea - $1/2 PMNFC (solutions.3m.com) = $0.96

I guess I should be happy he is trying!! LOL

How has every one's shopping trips turned out today?  Do you shop on Sunday or wait til later in the week?

Happy Bargain Hunting Shoppers!
