Cleaning out my coupons


So I was trying to organize my coupons since it is getting to be the end of the month and a lot of them are set to expire. I went to Walmart to use them on the travel size items that they have available. You are allowed to use a coupon on a travel item as long as the coupon doesnt specify a certain size restriction or say "excludes travel size". I think I did pretty well and was excited with what I got. It would have been much cheaper but I got 6 boxes of cottenelle wet wipes. They were on sale for $1.98 and I had a coupon for BOGO free so I really only paid for 3 of them and my son goes through these like crazy!


The kotex pads were the smaller packages that have 18 in them. They were $1 and I had (12) $1 coupons so these were free.


The travel size deodarent is perfect for my older 2 kids. They were $0.97 and then I used $0.75/1 coupons which made them $0.22 each.


The skintimate shaving gel bottles were actually pretty descent sized and they were $1.47. I had coupons for 1$/1 which made them come out to be $0.47 each. Not bad!!
Also the Reese's peanut butter cups were free because of coupons in the sunday paper.
Total amt spent was $22.76
Total amt saved was $84.90!!!
Yes I did make the cashier enter $85 in coupons!! It was 3am so they weren't busy and were very gracious about it! It is better to do a transaction like this when it is not a busy time of the day.
