diapers $3.77/pack!

A new month, a new budget. Thank heavens. Oh brother. Last month was awful- I had most of my money gone before the month even started. Oh brother.


Retails: $80.00
Total Spent: $28.40
Percent Off: 64%
plus, I have a $2 rebate coming. Factoring that in,
Total Spent: $26.40
Percent Off: 66%

How did I do it?

Huggies, jumbo pack, reg. $12.49
- on sale $8.99
- bought them in 2 transactions, 3 packs at a time so I could use 2 $5/$25 purchase Rite Aid coupons (watch the 2 videos, print the 2 coupons)
- used $3 and $2.50 coupons here or here (manufacturer coupon on Target site) or here
- used $1 Rite Aid AdPerks coupon available last month
- $13.95 for 1st transaction, $14.45 for 2nd
- $28.40 for 6 packs of diapers, plus will get a $2 rebate
- factoring that in, for 6 packs of diapers, each one will be
- $4.40 a pack! (including tax)

UPDATE: I am dumb. I saw on someone else's blog the deal scenario for getting a coupon for a FREE pack of diapers when you bought 5 from the Rite Aid rebate here. I didn't realize that it was the same coupon I had already earned last month- I thought it was a new one. If you haven't done it yet, then...

-factoring that extra pack in, for 7 packs of diapers, each one will be
- $3.77 a pack! (including tax)

compiled list from hip2save.

Money Left for the Month: $146.60

  3. If you want me to do that SCR for you give me the receipt number and stuff and I'll give you the coupon when it shows up in the mail.
