What a dissappointing week

Seriously slim to no good deals at Wags or CVS and I think I might go into withdrawal. Yikes this might make me go buy something not on sale. The good thing is that I am out of RR at WAGS. I did go the other day and got the Got2 Be deal for BOGO $5.99. I used the -$2.50 printables that were out a bit ago. Also when I got there there was a WAGS coupon taped on it for $2 off. Little did I know that this would work twice so I profited $3 on this deal. My coupon and the sale was still good for the curling iron and I also got some .99 olives with the in ad coupons. I am waiting for any hidden or not so obvious deals. Anyone...anyone????

Target=what a debacle!

I remember the days when my couponing started when everything was so easy. Not anymore. I am guessing because so many people are taking advantage of coupons and not in a good way is why most places I go to anymore scrutinize everything. To be fair, I did grab the wrong razors at first and inadvertently gave the cashier coupons that said not for trial size and didn't realize it. Anyway I took DH and DD with me which I knew would be a mistake but we were out and so we went. Plus the razor deal was ending last night. I rushed through the store to get all of this as quickly as possible so as not to aggravate DH. He is thrilled I am saving money but still thinks it is something that is inconvenient for him to partake in. But I digress. Here is the breakdown and I did 4 different transactions to get the Gillette gift cards but the cashier would not let me use them to roll each transaction. She was really nice and very patient. I was in line for 30 minutes so I let it go.

4 Gillette Razors $7.49 ea
used 4 -$4 MQ and 1 -$4 TQ home mailer
4 Gillette Body Wash $3.49 ea
used 4 -$4 MQ
FYI-The deal was to buy one of each and get $5 GC
