I have been trying to get started on couponing and stockpiling again. Not easy but I am determined. Last week I added 12 bottles of hubbys shampoo. He only uses Head and Shoulders. KMart had them B3G1 free. I had BOGO free coupons to match with it. Ended up with 12 bottles (only had 5 qs if I had one more would have been less) for $21.96. He should be stocked up for a while. Now to restock his soap and deodorant! I haven't had to buy him any deodorant in over a year.
