Don't Forget Your $.49 All-Natural Eggs!

I reminded everyone about this on Saturday in my radio show notes and also on my Facebook page, but I wanted to send one final reminder that the awesome deal on eggs at Harris Teeter ends today.


The Land O Lakes Brown Cage Free Eggs are on B1G1 sale through tonight. If you combine that with this coupon (you can even print two copies) you get your eggs for only $.49 per dozen!


Thanks to Tracy at Smith Savings for pointing out this awesome deal!

FREE Zyrtec Money-maker and Cheap Coke 12-packs at CVS!

*Update- the $2.00 off coupon that I reference below is now sold out, but you can still do the deal even without a coupon.

CVS does this every few months or so and with allergy season upon us I am so happy to see it! 

This week, through Saturday night, you can get the 5-count Zyrtec for $5.99. Immediately upon paying, you receive $5.99 back in Extrabucks (attached to the end of your receipt). You can use these Extrabucks like CVS "play money" to purchase anything else in the store except lotto, alcohol, tobacco products or pharmacy drugs. Some people use them right away to buy items in a second transaction; others save the Extrabucks for the following week. They expire in about 2-3 weeks, so I personally like to use them sooner rather than later.


The great thing is that if you use a coupon on the Zyrtec (here's one for $2.00 off a 5 count), you pay only $3.99 but still get the $5.99 in Extrabucks back. How cool is that?! It turns into a money-maker for you!


Zyrtec- $5.99
Minus $2.00 off coupon
Total- $3.99 plus tax
After paying you receive $5.99 back in Extrabucks
Final Result: You MADE $2.00 in this transaction! 

Also worth noting at CVS this week is the 5 for $15 Coke 12 packs deal. Buy 5 Coke 12-packs for $15. After you pay you will receive $5.00 back in Extrabucks, thus making the price really 5 for $10. That's already a great deal.


But what if you did the Zyrtec deal above and then immediately used the Extrabucks that you earned from the Zyrtec to pay for your Coke?


Buy 5 Coke product 12-packs for $15
Minus $5.99 in Extrabucks that you earned from the Zyrtec deal
Pay $9.01 plus tax
Get back $5.00 in Extrabucks

Final Result: You got 5 Coke 12-packs for $4.01!

I love doing CVS deals! With Easter coming up, this might be a good opportunity to volunteer to bring the soda at your family gathering this year!

This week on the Delly's Deals radio show I shared some of my favorite weekly deals. Check out the Delly's Deals Facebook Page to print some great coupons to match those deals.

We did a trivia question about what company did the first coupon ever- Coca Cola! Click here to read about it and to see a picture of what the first coupon looked like! Our winner was Jennifer Gore who won a $50 gift certificate to I Am Salon and Day Spa. 

Save on staples- Harris Teeter has a great price on milk this week; only $2.97 a gallon and you can get Cage Free Eggs for only $.49 a dozen from Land O Lakes this week at Harris Teeter if you print this great coupon!

Also be sure to grab the Walgreens freebies this week (see my earlier post from this week). Get free Saline Spray and make $.75 on Colgate Pro Sensitive Relief.

Easy Walgreens Money-Makers and Freebies!

 I made $.75 purchasing these items. Total Value: $11.48!

I dropped by Walgreens this morning and grabbed two quick freebies. Both can be done without coupons but in order to make it a money-maker you will need one coupon.

The first was free Colgate Total Advanced. It is normally 3.49 but it's on sale at Walgreens through Saturday night for only $3.00. The best part is that you get a $3.00 Register Reward back after you pay, making it essentially free! For those who are unfamiliar, Register Rewards are printed out after you pay, shaped like a rectangle, and they are like money at Walgreens. They can be used to purchase anything in Walgreens except prescriptions, alcohol, tobacco, lottery or stamps. Some Harris Teeter locations will accept Register Rewards, too, although this seems to be hit or miss.

This is a Walgreens Register Reward. Don't throw it away- it's like money!

The deal gets even better if you have the $.75 off Colgate Total Advance coupon from the paper a few weeks back. If you do, you only pay $2.25 (plus tax) for the toothpaste but you still get back $3.00 in Register Rewards to spend! In this case, you end up making $.75!

The other easy deal is for Walgreens Nasal Mist Spray. I love this stuff for when I have a cold and my nose is irritated. It's non-medicated and great for cold relief. Normally is is $7.99 when not on sale. The name-brand costs $9.99. This week it's on sale for $5.00 and after you pay, you immediately get back $5.00 in Register Rewards! It doesn't get much easier than that! 

So I bought both items and paid in two separate transactions. This is what I did:


Transaction #1
Colgate Total Advanced 4 oz Toothpaste- $3.00 
minus my $.75 off coupon= 
$2.25 plus tax out of pocket
I got back: $3.00 in Register Rewards


Transaction #2
Walgreens Nasal Spray 4.25 oz- $5.00
minus my $3.00 in Register Rewards=
$2.00 plus tax out of pocket
I got back: $5.00 in Register Rewards


Total Out of Pocket: $4.25 plus tax
Total Register Rewards Remaining: $5.00!
Total Value Purchased: $11.48


Summary: Essentially I made $.75 AND got $11.48 worth of product for free!

I will be doing a drug store deals workshop this Saturday, March 10th at 1:00 or 3:00 p.m. at NE Regional Library in Wilmington. If you'd like to learn more about how to get great deals at drug stores on your medicines and other items, join me and get $2.00 off for bringing a friend. RSVP here!

Star News vs. News and Observer

Good morning! It's the first of the month and that means one thing- lots of coupons in the Sunday paper. People were up and out early, too. By the time I got there (7:45) most of the Raleigh papers were gone. I checked another gas station and they were already sold out. 


Raleigh was supposed to have all three inserts- Red Plum, P&G and Smart Source. Mine, however, did not have the Smart Source and I checked many papers. My Wilmington Star News had all three inserts in it, albeit thinner versions.


Below is a list of what coupons came in my inserts this week!


Wilmington Star News


Smart Source Insert


Dr. Scholls, Campbells Soups, Mean Green Cleaner, Freschetta Pizzas, Jergens, Curel, Ban, John Freida, Biore, John Freida Precision Foam, Tyson Anytizers, Science Diet Pet Food, Smart Balance Milk, Bailey's Creamers, Chuck E Cheese


Red Plum Insert


Paseo Bath Tissue and Facial Tissue, Emerald Nuts, Osteo-Bi Flex, Loreal Cosmetics, Loreal Paris Skincare, Zyrtec, Dole, On0Core Family Entrees, Rosina Meatballs, El Monterrey, Birds Eye, Jimmy Dean Delights, Jose Ole Taquitos, Zatarain's, Goody's, BC, All Laundry Detergent, 


Raleigh News and Observer 


Red Plum Insert


Paseo Bath Tissue and Facial Tissue, Emerald Nuts, Osteo-Bi Flex, Loreal Cosmetics, Loreal Paris Skincare, Zyrtec, Dole, OnCore Family Entrees, Rosina Meatballs, El Monterrey, Birds Eye, Jimmy Dean Delights, Jose Ole Taquitos, Zatarain's, Goody's, BC, All Laundry Detergent, Whiskas Dry Food for Cats and Whiskas Trays, Cesar Treats for Dogs, Pedigree, Maybelline Mascara, Listerine, Reach Toothbrush, Reach Floss, Bnegay, Brawny, Ball Park Angus Products, Ball ark Products, Mars Easter Candies, McCormick Perfect Pinch Seasoning Blend, Pop Tarts Mini Crisps, Pop Tarts, Ester-C, Kelloggs Cereals (any), Snuggle, Colace, Marvel Vitamins, Mrs. T's Pierogies, Baskin Robbins


There was also a P&G insert in each paper that was the same.


Overall, the coupons this week were average. I've seen better and I've seen worse, but they were still worth getting. If you can't find the Raleigh paper, the Wilmington wasn't too bad. 


Until next week.....

Also, we discussed a very interesting article regarding who uses coupons. A recent study shows that the rich are actually more likely to use coupons than the poor. What do you think? Click here for a summary of the article along with reader comments. You can read the full article if you click on the blue section. 

Upcoming Workshops: Sat. March 3rd, Oak Island Baptist Church, Oak Island NC. 1 p.m.

I will also be doing a workshop on Drug Store Deals next Saturday, March 10th at NE Regional Library at 1:00 and 3:00 p.m. This is my first Drug Store Workshop and I'm so excited to have the chance to show you how to save big bucks at the Drug Store. Drug stores work a little differently than grocery store deals, so we will go over those differences and learn how to maximize your savings!

Don't forget about your Sunday paper tomorrow! It's the first of the month so there should be great coupons, including the monthly P&G insert.
