I'm finished with undergrad now, just waiting for graduation on Saturday. I haven't been doing much lately since I don't have any finals to take. The car's out of service (I think that starter's messed up). I've just been cleaning the house because the family's coming for my graduation and my brother's graduation. I really wish the car was working, I'd be couponing every day! I'm waiting until Friday to go couponing with my mom (she'll finally be able to see me in action!). Eunice and Erica, my little cousins, are also coming over on Friday for my graduation. Hopefully Friday and Saturday will have beautiful, not too hot weather!

Here's hoping for the best!

I bought a ton of things at Walgreens on 5/30, but I may be too lazy to put it up. There are so many great things to buy at Wags this week.

• Gillette Body Wash x 4 = $16
  
• Old Spice Body Wash x 2 = $8

Used:

• BoGo Gillette Body Wash x 2 = -$8
• BoGo Old Spice Body Wash = -$4
• $4 off $20 CVS = -$4
• -$5 ECB

Total:

• Without Q's : $24
• With Q's : $3
• I got back $8 in ECB, so my grand total was a $5 MM.
  

First and last time I posted was in November of last year. Needless to say, I've couponed a whole bunch in the time span that I have been absent. Currently, I'm working on my experiment for Sociology 130. One more experiment and one more research project and I'm done!

Hopefully I'll remember to post again soon!

So, I've been couponing for about 3 or 4 months now, and I've never kept a blog before. I just wanted to post what I buy and the savings that lead up to it!

So here's my first post, my trip to CVS. I payed $.54 OOP (ignore my cute Hello Kitties in the background)

Bought:
Sally Hansen Nail Glam Salon $4.99
Sally Hansen Nail Glam Salon $4.99
Sally Hansen Nail Glam Salon $4.99
Sally Hansen Hard as Nails French Manicure $6.99
Trident Gum $1.29
Trident Gum $1.29
CVS Cotton Pads $.24
Used:
$6.99 ECB
$8.54 ECB (got adjusted in the end from $10)
$10 CVS Q (was $5 off $20 purchase, but for some reason rang up as $10 off)

Total: $24.78 before tax without ECBs and Qs
Total after all Qs: $.54
I ended up having a -$.75 subtotal and $1.29 tax, which made it $.54. The $10 ECB was adjusted to $8.54 after the CVS Q became a $10 Q, which I hastily added the gum. Either way, I may have not been able to use another $1.46 in ECB, but I gained $5 in CVS Q!
