Bi-Lo Run: November 10th

This morning I did a quick trip to Bi-Lo to pick up the cases of Nesquik that I had ordered. I picked up a few other things and this is the fabulous deal I got:

$50.83 before coupons; $7.93 after coupons = 84% savings!

26 pouches Nesquik
3 Coffeemate liquid creamer
2 boxes Coffeemate powdered creamer
1 Zest bodywash
4 packs Whisker Lickins


Curel deal from Target

Last week and this week I have gone to Target several times to receive a great deal that they've had with Curel lotion. On most tubes, they've had the deal of Buy 2 and get a $5 gift card (GC). I found some that are priced at $3.59 and I used my $1/1 coupon from the 10/9 SS insert. That makes them $2.59 each, so 2 together are $5.18. Then you receive the GC. So, it's kind of like paying $.18 for the lotion, but you still have to use the gift card, so we won't count it that way.

This is how I did one of my recent trips:

Every year, my husband's family does the Dirty Santa gift thingy at Xmas. I bought 4 Curel lotions for $10.79 and received my 2 $5 GCs. I used those to go towards my Dirty Santa gift (usually we aim at a $20 gift). I found a CrockPot on sale for $16 (normally $25), so my $10 went towards this.

In the end, it was like I bought the crockpot and got the lotion for free.
