Johnson & Johnson Buddies soaps

Awhile back there was a coupon online for $3/3 Johnson and Johnson's products. I bought 3 J&J buddies soap bars at Dillons, and the catalina machine printed me out a coupon for $3/3 J&J products. This has happened 13 times now! I went today, and bought 3, it printed out another coupon, so I gave it to Austin (he was purchasing some other things I forgot), and he used it to buy some, and it printed out another coupon for him!! I have 39 bars of J&J buddies bars and haven't paid for one of them! I love coupons! =) I "bought" dillons out of their stock today, so I'll have to wait until they're stocked up again before I can get more. Just have to say though that I honestly wouldn't have ever bought them before, because I thought "a buck for only 1 bar of soap? that's nuts!" But actually, we're hooked on them because they are SO easy for the kids to use! It's basically a bar of "kid" soap w/ a pouf built onto it, so it's great for them!
We have a linen closet upstairs and the bottom 2 shelves are "stockpile" items of things I have bought for very little or free! We have a ton of shampoo, toothpaste,deoderant,razors,soap, you name it, it's probably up there! I couldn't imagine having to pay for those items again!!

Cheap Laundry Detergent!

You can go to http://www.purexsavesgreen.com/index.html
to get a coupon for 50/1 Purex Naturals detergent.
This was included in the 10 mix 'n match this week (at Dillons), so combined w/ the 10 mix 'n match sale, And this coupon, you can get a bottle for only $1.99!!
(Remember, you must buy 10 mix 'n match items to get it for the 1.99, if you don't, it'll be 2.49 after your coupon!)

My Dillons "plan" this week (1/21 to 1/27)

I thought I'd share my "plan" for shopping at Dillons this week. They are having a Buy 10, Save $5 off your transaction sale on certain items, so I'm going to do that along w/ coupons. Here is my plan:

5 Green Giant Steamers ($1.50) 4- 50/1 cpns (doubled to 1) scuts 50/1
4 Kleenexes (60-200 ct) ( 1.59) 4- cpns 40/1 (doubled to 80 cents)
1 Fiber One Granola chewy bars ($2.59) $1/1 cpn, plus Cellfire 50/1

Total= $16.45 - $5 (for buying 10 mix'n match items) - $9.20 (coupons) = $2.25 (TOTAL)

2 Kraft Singles (16 slices) ($1.99) 1 cpn 75/2 (doubled to 1)
2 Kraft Mayo 24 oz ($2.99) 2 cpns 75/1 (doubled to 1)
2 Cheetos ($2.50) cpn $1.25/2
2 Chex Mix ($2.19) 2 cpns 50/1 (doubled to 1), scuts 60 cents/1, cellfire 60 cents/1
2 Pace Picante Sauce ($2) cpn 50/2(doubled to 1)

Total =$23.34 -$5 (for buying 10 mix 'n match items) - $9.45 (coupons) = $8.89

2 Totinos Pizza Rolls ($3.49) 2 cpns $1/1
2 Totinos Pizza rolls ($3.49) 2 cpns $1/2 plus cellfire 50 cents/1
1 Nature Valley Granola Bars ($2.59) cpn $1/1
5 Captain Crunch Cereal ($2.59) 5 cpns 50/1 (doubled to $1)

Total= $29.50 - $5 (for buying 10 mix 'n match items) - $9.50 (coupons) = $15

You can do 3 "rewards" of the $5 per transaction so I can do all this in one, and my total is going to be $26.14 plus tax
That's quite a bit out of pocket, but it's not bad considering if I didn't have my coupons, it would be $54.29 (I didn't even include the $5 that the store takes off, just my paper coupons)
So see, that's a total savings of $28.15 for using paper coupons
IT PAYS TO CLIP COUPONS!! ;)
