Couponing 101: Let's Talk Free


Things you can get free or get paid to take out of the store!

Walmart:

This past week Walmart had $6.00 off one Nature Made Vitamin coupons laying around in the vitamin section. I got four one day and then came back several days later and found there were still lots of coupons laying around. So I thought if no one else will use them I will! If you find these coupons at your local Walmart you can get free Nature Made Vitamins or get them cheep or get paid to take them out of the store and yes Walmart will give you money back with coupon overage!

The cheapest are the magnesium and vitamin D. The magnesium was $3.24 and the vitamin D was $3.97.

So here's what I got.

First I got these:

Multi Vitamin For Her $6.94 using a $6.00 off coupon it leaves 94 cents plus tax.

Vitamin C $7.72 using a $6.00 off coupon it leaves $1.72 plus tax.

Magnesium being $3.24 using a $6.00 off coupon they give you back around $2.76 minus taxes

D being $3.97 using a $6.00 off coupon they give you back around $2.03 minus taxes.

I got about 7 or 8 magnesium all together and 2 vitamin d's, 2 multi vitamins for her, 1 vitamin c, and used some of the extra overage on Spring Valley Evening Primrose Oil Vitamin which I take for menstrual problems. So not only did it pay for my vitamins, plus give me lots of extras, I got free Evening Primrose Oil!

Also at Walmart are the Schick ST2 razors 10 or 12 pack for $1.97. There was a $2.00 off one or $4.00 off two coupon in past Sunday inserts. Which I used, then when you open the razor bag there is a $3.00 off coupon on the same razor, so you can take that coupon and go back and buy more plus get overage toward other things!

Walgreens:

Vick's Vapo Cough Drops 99 cents each or 2 for $1.79 using $1.00 off coupon from not only this past Sunday inserts but even prior Sunday inserts I have managed to get about 9 boxes totally free! Including taxes! Because of the 2 for $1.79 I got that 21 cent overage that went to the rest of my purchase. Now it depends at Walgreens how your deal will go. Sometimes they will adjust the coupon down to the retail price 99 cents each or whatever it comes out to be and other times they will just scan the coupon as is. Just depends who you get checking you out!

Carmex travel size lotions are 99 cents. This past Sunday inserts had $1.00 off coupons for those, so you can get those free as well, there are no excluding trial or travel sizes limitations on these coupons.

This past week I found some Maybelline lip glosses on sale 2 for $3.50 or $1.99 each. Using $2.00 off coupon from past Sunday inserts I got them free plus 51 cents overage on the three I could find.

They also have Trident gum on sale for 69 cents each. Using $1.00 off 3 from past Sunday inserts makes 3 packs $1.17 with tax! (Tax may vary)

Past weeks deals:

Last week they had the Bayer Aspirin low dose 81 mg on sale for 99 cents, using $1.00 off coupon from past Sunday inserts it makes this free!

Theramax Cold Flu Nasal spray $7.99 and was given back $8 RR to use on next purchase making the nasal spray eventually free!
