What better way to start the new blog..

than with a couponing post.

It's such a nice day today and C was getting cranky so I decided to throw him in the stroller and take a walk to Shoppers for baby bonus week.


Here's how we did:


Pampers Cruisers-$13.99-$10.00 P&G coupon=$3.99
Playtex liners-$3.99-$1.00 coupon=$2.99
Pampers wipes- 2@$5.99ea=$11.98-2X$3.00 coupon=$5.98
Herbal Essences 2in1-2@$4.47ea=$8.94-2XFPC=$0
Diet Coke-$1.67
Gerber prunes-$0.69
Cost before coupons-$41.28
Cost after coupons-$15.32 + $2.99 tax (booo)= $18.31

I saved $25.96 oop, which is great. But it's about to get even better. I got 320 regular Optimum points and an extra 3500 points for spending $30 on baby products. On a bonus redemption day those points will be worth $10.18. Also the Pampers have GTG codes in them that are worth $0.88 for Futura and the UPCs can be mailed in for another $1.50 in Futura.

So...
Cost OOP-$18.31
Value of points and rewards-$12.56
Total cost to me-$5.75
