Extreme Couponing: Weekend Haul

I have been collecting coupons for the past 2 Sundays and pretty much been researching to prepare for the hauls I'm about to show you. Now it's time to put what I learned in action. I performed some extreme couponing at the following major drugstores: Walgreens and CVS as well as at the mega superstores: Target and Walmart. I felt pretty good with the outcome of this weekend haul.

Target & Walmart: I spent $17 for about $60 worth of stuff.
Highlight: Palmer's Cocoa Butter for $0.27-originally $2.27 & Transformers action figure for $1.99- originally $7.99, Oral B Rechargeable Toothbrush for $2.82 -originally $12.82

CVS Haul: I spent $8.15 for about $35 dollars worth of stuff.
Highlight: Getting the Glade products for $0.66 a piece. The pumkin carving tool & candy was FREE. Also the Halloween candy bag was what Baby Eden collected for FREE!


Walgreens Haul: Hands down, my favorite haul! I spent $2.38 for $35 dollars worth of stuff.
Highlight: TheraMax Nasal Spray was FREE , Huggies Wipes was$2.49, Welchs Grape Jelly was $0.75 each. The coupons and register rewards brought down my out-of-pocket cost.

*I'll break down this haul in my next post. 

I was so happy that I did well using coupons to buy groceries and household products for the my first time. I still consider myself a beginner. I'll get better as time progress. Extreme couponing is seriously addicting and it only takes one great transaction to get you hooked!
