FALL-WINTER 2023 Shopping Fun and Frustrations!!!!

For that hard to buy for couponer in your life:
A CVS receipt scarf.

Have you seen the YT video where the girl scans her card and this huge receipt starts printing so she gets her hair done, goes to the grocery store, and then goes on a date and when she finally gets back to CVS the receipt is still printing? It's pretty funny. Of course, now the printer says no coupons available, check back next year.

There are some huge mm's at Wags but I'm sure that you already know that.

Since hardly anyone ever posts an actual deal at WG that can be replicated, I doubt we know about it.

Is there a Revlon deal at CVS this week? Is it part of the 10/30? The reason that I'm asking is that I did a yellow dot item (40% off) and it didn't track. I guess that it's clearance. I wish that I would've known. If it's part of the 10/30 deal I could've used my $5 and $3 coupons much better. I saw a Revlon scenario with two 5's and a 3? Do you know where the other $5 coupon is coming from? Is the $5 Neutrogena working on Revlon? Thanks!!

Please explain this "Yellow Dot" appearance.
thanx

There's the 10//40 dq and 7/40 paper. I also got a 10/40 paper for personal care. Then there's the flash sale that goes on through Tuesday. If you buy $30 in P&G oral care you get a $10 RR but when I did the deal and spent $37 I only got $5 so I'm thinking that the dq's count against the total. There's the insane $59.99 Oral B power toothbrush deal and the 2 Crest Serum deal (each one is $26). The Serum deal came out to a $16 mm by my calculations but I was doing it in my head and they were out of stock so I could be wrong. The Oral-B toothbrush was also oos and that's another big mm. There's a 6/12 P&G oral care RR in the store but only certain items are tagged and the math sucks (for example, you've got $11.49 items and the cheapest thing that was tagged was $8.79). The lady doing the video said that you could get the $4 and $5 items but that didn't work. My deal was supposed to be a $16 mm but I got $5 instead of $10 and I didn't get the $6 so it was only a $5 mm. There's a good deal on Gain detergent. The large ones are $9.99 with a $3 dq and $5 RR wyb 2. I wish that I knew what i was doing at Wags or could go back in time 5 years. I would've totally cleaned up today but I just did so-so. Everything was free but I spent around $100 oop and I didn't want to do that. On the P&G flash sale you get a $2 RR if you spend less than $15, $5 for up to $29.99, and $10 for more than that in oral care only. The cheap Gillette shaving lotion is around a $2 mm after the dq. Colgate is free after the two $3 dq's. The expensive Crest tp in the blue box is on clearance for $3.99 and $4.49. The clearance one did not work for me to get the RR but the $3 dq did apply.

7/40 or 10/40 paper + dq's. The $59.99 Oral B tb has a $30 dq plus all of the other stuff.

They have these yellow dots on select cosmetics products and they are all 40% off. They have big signs up advertising it so I thought that it was a national promotion. I didn't know that the items counted as clearance. I think that Revlon is part of the 10/30 deal and I would've been better off buying regular priced items. Somebody posted about using two 5's + the $3 digital so I'm thinking that Neutrogena worked on Revlon? I'm totally out of the CVS game and my brain is jelly from 4 Wags trips today so about all I can do at this point is put on some jazz and chill out.

Thanks, I don't have those DQs.



Thanks for the ideas, the last few times I've spent $$ in WG, I didn't get a $/$$ cat to use.



I don't have that $30 DQ.

I think survey says WG doesn't really care if I shop there or not!



Revlon is part of the 'Spend $30, get $10' deal at CVS.

Yellow dot items are considered clearance and don't work for ecb deals.

People who have two $5's are using one from last week and one from this week. I guess 'no grace' hasn't hit their store yet. Lucky them!



Yes, an $8 item from Revlon would have been better for the ecb deal than getting a clearance item unless it's something you really want and you're doing the ecb deal a different way.

I don't want Revlon at all. I'm not even willing to pay 50 cents tax for it. I just wanted to see if I was correct about how to make both coupons work when they were higher than the cost of the item. I'm glad that I stopped at one card and didn't do clearance on all of them. If I have $8 in free Revlon that makes the 10/30 deal a 10/22 deal and much more interesting.

Wow, what did you do to make Wags so mad at you? Stay out too late last Saturday night? lol

In case you are looking for coupons, here are some I found in my Kroger affiliate, but could show up in other places. I long for the days when stores had displays filled with offers, booklets with coupons and good sales. Couponing is getting harder. You have to have a degree in mathematical gymnastics and illogical equations. You also have to master the art of reading between the lines, deciphering codes, and interpersonal communications with all cashiers and store managers.

Found the following coupons:

Ben & Jerry's pint or 8oz bag of Cookie Dough Chunks, $1/1, x 12/31/23. (limit 2 in transaction, excludes mini Cups, doggie desserts or 3 oz Dough chunks)

Cheetos Mac 'N Cheesy Ranch flavor and one additional box any flavor, $1/2,x 3/31/24

Idahoan Mashed Potatoes, buy 2 Buttery Homestyle 4 oz, get one Hidden Valley Ranch 4 oz free, max value $1.99, x 12/31/24 -- long expiration date

PediaSure Grow & Gain with fiber 4 pack, $3/1, x 12/24/23, limit 2 identical in transaction
