Shopping Report 10/1/08

I am pledging to do a better job of reporting my purchases this month, the great deals, and all the rest too. Hopefully this will not only give me a better opportunity to review my spending, but give others some in site too.

but first . . . .

Glade Deal ending soon! 10/4/08! As I originally reported HERE buy a Glade scented gel warmer and get a $2 OYNO catalina. Today these are ringing up at $1 at Giant PA, $1.57 at Acme, $1.99 at Genuardis (didn't bother there). And there are B1G1 printable coupons at Coupons.com and HERE . I have had greatly enjoyed this catalina deal!

ok now back to the 'report'

First stop Genuardis

Admittedly, I haven't been in Genuardi's for awhile. But top on hubbies Christmas list was the Iron Man DVD, and though the ad lacks details, if you spend $40 on selected items you get the DVD for free.

Also note on the bottom of the Genuardis receipt there is a code for your school/ charity to receive 10%, you can enter it yourself, or give it to the schoool/charity to do. I entered mine and the school got $.29!

I got

3 Scrubbing Bubbles Flushable Wipes @ $3.29 = $9.87

6 Glade Plugs In Oil Warmers @ $5.79 = $34.74

Total $44.61 ( I should have only gotten 2 Scrubbing Bubbles)

Giant PA! Rocking Deals!

Admittedly if you look at the Giant PA ad, it's pretty dull. And for those of us without gas stations at our store, it outright sucks.

BUT There are several deals at Giant PA to be had right now - that are worth the trip!

Giant PA HOT !!!!

Glade Scented Oil Warmers

Shelf price $1.57 (at my store, Giant prices do vary from store to store)

get $2.00 OYNO (on your next order coupon)

MAKE $.43 EACH

It gets better, there are many coupons out there for this item! Values include $1, $2 and FREE. Coupons can be found 8/3/08 Smart Source, 8/24/08 Smart Source, Oct 2008 Womans Day, Peelies, and more

I had 10 $2 coupons (to my local peeps, I did not clear the shelves) I MADE $20 in OYNO coupons, and I was also using a $2.50 off $30 coupon, so these helped me get to that amount!

I believe this goes through 10/5, but my camera phone picture didn't come out well enough to tell.
