My Nexxus CVS Trip!

I was THRILLED to see that I had accumulated $15 in ECBs from the 24 bottles of FREE Head and Shoulders I got last week (thanks to the Beauty Club)
That plus the $4/$20 Scanner Q made me a very happy girl!

I was so excited to see the Nexxus deal this week since they have some awesome frizz control product!
Here is what I got:

Nexxus Frizz Control Oil Treatment: $14.49
2 Travel Shampoo: $3.19 each
Minus $15 ECB
Minus $4/$20
Total: $1.86
Received: $10 ECB

Total Worth: $20.87
Total Spent: $1.86

So it ended up being a $8.14 money maker! :)
And I'm super close to another $5 ECB from the beauty club!

My Upcoming CVS Trip!

I am so excited about this weeks CVs Sales & Deals!
So excited in fact that I may even run to CVS BEFORE church tomorrow!

I was THRILLED to see that I had accumulated $15 in ECBs from the 24 bottles of FREE Head and Shoulders I got this week (thanks to the Beauty Club)
Also, tomorrow through Wednesday when you scan your Extra Care card at the red machine you will get a $4/$20 coupon!

Now it's time to use them! :)

One of the ECB deals this week is spend $20 on Nexxus hair care and receive $10 ECB.
[i am super excited about this because Nexxus has a frizz control product that is AMAZING!]

Also, When I scanned my card today I got a $1/1 any Nivea body or hand moisturizer.
They have the small travel tins for $.99. I'm not 100% positive the scanner Q will work with the travel tin, but I'm definitely going to try since the travel tin says "hand moisturizer"! :)

So I'll be getting (hopefully):

Nexxus Frizz Control Oil Treatment: $14.49
2 Travel Shampoo: $3.19 each
Nivea Travel Tin Lotion: $.99
Minus $1/1 Nivea Scanner Q
Minus $15 ECB
Minus $4/$20

So it will end up being a $8.14 money maker! :)

My Homemade NO SEW Reusable T-Shirt Grocery Bags!

As I was browsing pinterest I came across THIS AWESOME article on 10 NO SEW projects to do with old T-Shirts!
One of them was this bag that I decided to make!
It's super duper easy, and if I had a pair of scissors that actually worked I am convinced that it would have been even easier! (and my lines would have been straighter!)

I would give all the awesome instructions but I would just be regurgitating THIS tutorial. So I'll just send yu there instead. :)

I made 3 for starters. Mainly because I actually use all of my T-Shirts. But once Jonathan gets home I'm going to have him go through his shirts and hopefully I'll have some more bags to make!

These are great to use as reusable grocery bags or just an everyday tote.

24 Bottles of Head and Shoulders FREE! :)

I Was so excited to finally get a chance to go to CVS and try the Head and Shoulders deal!

So here is the deal going on now at CVS:

Head and Shoulders is Buy One Get One 50% off.
There is a Q from 7/1 P&G that is BOGO FREE up to $9.49 and when it scans it automatically takes off $9.49 regardless of how much you are actually paying for it. SO COOL!
(heads up: some CVS stores have caught on to the glitch and will just type in the price of the free item instead of scanning the Q)

So If you buy 2 H&S you will get one for $5.99 and the second will ring up for $2.99.
Making your total $8.98
Minus $9.49 BOGO Q
Makes it a $.51 Money Maker for every 2 bottles of shampoo you buy!

Since i wasnt sure if the store i went to had caught on to the coupon glitch I first went in with only 1 Q just to see how it would play out.
Yay! it worked and I got 2 bottles for FREE!
So I ran out to my car and grabbed my other 11 Qs and headed back in!

My transactions looked like this: I had to do 4 transactions per the coupons rules:

8 H&S: $5.99 each: $47.92
Minus $12 (50% off of 4)
Minus $37.96 (4 BOGO Qs @ $9.49 each)
Total: FREE! (technically a $2.04 MM but it counted toward the tax)

I ended up with 24 bottles of H&S with only paying tax! ($3)
I was SOOO excited!
Jonathan uses this shampoo-it's all he uses-and it can get pricey!
Glad I won't have to buy him any for a WHILE!

Total Worth: $149.88
Total Spent: NOTHING!
AND! I will be getting $15 in ECBs! $5 for every $50 spent on beauty items!
Score! :)

I also stopped by Target and got 2 Pantene Hair stylers. (only one is pictured) FOR FREE!

2 Pantene Stylers: $3.36 each- $6.72
Minus (2) $2/1 Target Peelie
Minus $3/2 MQ
Total: FREE plus $.28 MM.
