My $2.96 Target Trip (Saved 90%)

August 18, 2010

Just in case you happened to miss me over the last two days, we made a quick trip down into West Virginia. My husband was speaking at a church there, and I tagged along. Emma was thrilled, because it meant a slumber party at Grandma & Pa’s house. 🙂

We arrived a little early, so we stopped by the local Target store. (I just happened to have my Coupon Clutch with me!) I didn’t bring my printout of this week’s Target deals, so I was going from memory.  (Scary, eh?) Here’s what I ended up with.

Merchandise Value: $30.94
Out-of-Pocket Cost: $2.96
Savings: $27.98 (90%)

What I Bought:
4 Rolaids SoftChews – $2.29 each
6 Hello Kitty Band-Aids (8-packs) – $.97 each
4 Big Soleil Razors (4-packs) – $3.99 each

Coupons Used:
-$4.00 off 2 Rolaids coupon (used 2) from 6/6 RedPlum insert
-$3.00 off 3 Band-Aid coupon (used 2) from 8/1 SmartSource insert
-Buy 1 – Get 1 FREE Bic disposable razor coupon (used 2) from 7/11 SmartSource insert
-$3.00 off Soleil coupon (used 2) from 7/11 SmartSource insert

Out-of-Pocket Cost: $2.96
Savings: $27.98 (90%)

For a totally unplanned trip, I’m pretty happy with that savings. And Emma is VERY happy with her Hello Kitty Band-Aids!  Be sure to check out all of this week’s best Target deals before you head out shopping.
