    Smile Bought 4 bars of soap for a total of 18 cents

    Because of my skin issues I only use one kind of soap. This is for use in the shower, hand washing in that bathroom and in the kitchen everything.

    So today I bought 4 bars for 18 cents plus tax total.

    Here is how

    Walgreen had a two pack for $1 ( strangely it was not with the soaps but the trial size stuff even though they were full size) I had a $1 RR about to expire so I used it. Free soap.

    Then the grocery store had the same two pack on sale for $.88 regularly $1.85 I had a coupon from the paper for 35 cents off the store doubled it to 70 cents off so my soap two pack was 18 cents

    So four bars of soap for 18 cents

    I also did a deodorant deal not sure if it was a good deal or not.

    Big deodorants of degree invisible for women on sale for $2.44 each buy two get a $1 off next order coupon at register. I used a 75 cent coupon which the store added 25 cents off to make it a dollar off. So if I count the RR with this purchase each deodorant was $1.44 cents.

    Using the coupon at Walgreens might have netted a better price but they were out of the degree deodorant the deal was 2 for $4 and get a $1 RR use the coupon for 75 cents off from the paper and the deodorant would be like $1.13 each.

    Thanks. I hope you find some good deals soon.

    I just keep and eye out.

    I only get coupons from the inserts my mom brings over from her paper after she has gone through them and picked the ones she wants.

    I clip interesting ones and one for things we know we will use ( like one one for the only soap I can use)

    I keep them in a coupon folder you know one of those wallet sized ones. and keep them in my purse for when I fall into/spy a deal.
