Target Toy Clearance

Sorry about the glare on the picture but you get the idea. Target is having its big January toy clearance. I had been real good about not going because we really do not need more toys but today I gave in after reading on one of my favorite messages boards that there were rumors of toys going 90 percent off!!! Anyone who knows/follows Target clearances, knows that this is unheard of! Only holidays go 90 percent off. I still had to check it out.

As my daughter and I made our way to toys I saw standing close to the toys, my favorite mark down lady!! WOOT! We moved a little quicker. I overheard her discussion over time with the manager LOL. When they were done talking, I told her that I love seeing her in the toy department. She told me where they had already been and what still needed done. I asked her about 90 percent off and she denied it. I still will check later this week. LOL

This is what I got today...

Electronic Doodle Pro 5.48

Mad Science Dinosaur kit 3.94

2 Lapdesks with stamps and such 3.74 each

Barbie with 3 puppies 4.98

Breyer Stablemates 4.98

Stormtrooper Potato head 2.74

Clipo set 4.98

Vtech smartboard 6.24

King Arthur figures 2.98

Word World Stamp kit 2.38

I also got a few shirts for 1.48 and some cereal for 1.97. So I didn't just get junk. LOL I put most of the stuff away for birthdays or namedays. I am not stupid enough to think I can hold it until Christmas. LOL

This made up a little for the lame Old Navy clearance last week I guess---although we needed pants much more than we needed toys. LOL

I told my girls that most of them are board games because when everything goes digital we won't be able to watch any TV---we will need something to do. LOL

I saved a total of 77.83 on this trip! I knew that these things would not be there when clearance went to 75 off so I snatched them up. I will go back sometime to see if there is anything left that I "need" LOL

CVS trip 12/21/08

I am slacking on my posting of deals. But honestly, I have not been venturing out too much. I did manage to make it for the last huge CVS freebie sale!! And here is what I got...

5 Listerine Cool Mint mouthwash

1 Zantac

1 Thermacare neck to arm

1 Halls Natural

1 Excedrin

2 Sally Hansen nail polish

2 L'oreal eye shadow

1 Benefiber

Total: 64.66

Coupons: 2.00

ECBs used: 60.69

oop: 2.28

ECBs earned: 64.17

Not too bad!!

Thanksgiving Shopping at CVS

I knew that CVS was having a big three day sale starting today. I also knew that chances were if I didn't make it today, stuff would be sold out or I wouldn't make it at all. So this morning the girls and I ventured out to see what we could get.

2 Phillips universal remotes 6.99 each

1 Aussie leave-in conditioner 2.99

1 Aussie hair spray 2.99

1 Bic Soliel razor 5.99

1 Schick Quantro razor/trimmer 7.99

2 Colgate total toothpaste 2.99/each

1 L'oreal lip gloss 6.99

1 Garnier Face towellettes 5.99

1 Maybelline fondation 8.99

1 Covergirl smooth powder 5.99

3 gatorade G2 1.49 each

1 Sally Hansen nail polish 3.79

Total: 76.14

Used 10.50 in coupons

30.00 in ECBs

total out of pocket: 38.70

Earned 65.16 in ECBs for next time.

So I made about 26.00 profit today and I could go back and get a few more things since I did not get the max on a few of the deals. The cashier said that I had the longest receipt she had seen in a long time. LOL If I hold it over my head it still drags the floor. LOL

Still thinking about hitting Walgreens or Rite Aid today for more free stuff but might just wait. I mean we already have enough toothpaste for the next year or more. LOL And I have more make-up than I will ever wear in my life time. LOL But it sure is fun to come home and spread everything out and say, "This was all free!!" LOL

Target Glade deal

If you have not checked out the Glade deal at Target, you might want to. If you purchase 4 holiday scents, you get a $5 gift card. But be warned, it will only do one per guest per transaction. (I found that out yesterday LOL).

I purchased 4 things a few weeks ago with some B1G1 coupons for the scented oil holders but since then my Target has been out of the holders.

I have a bunch of Glad coupons and since I go to Target a lot, I figure I could grab some each time I go. This week I bought: 4 scented oil refills (Cinnamon Gingerbread scent); 2 Vanilla Breeze refill with warmer; and 2 twin packs of Glistening Snow refills.

The scented oil refills are priced 2.50 at my Target. And I had 1.50 off 2 coupons.

I also used some B1G1 coupons on the refill packs.

And I got back 2 $5 GC (the nice cashier did 2 transactions for me).

So far I have $15 in GC and between Target and CVS, I have enough air fresheners to make an NFL locker room smell great! LOL
