Saving Money at Target


The girls and I made a quick trip to Target this morning for a few good deals. Here is the breakdown:
  • Two boxes of Pampers Cruisers were $34.99 each ($69.98 for both) and one box of wipes was $1.97. I had two $2.00 off manufacturer coupons for the Cruisers, one $2.00 off Target coupon if I bought both Pampers diapers and wipes, one $0.50 off manufacturer coupon for wipes, and one $1.50 off manufacturer coupon if I bought both Pampers diapers and wipes. And, I got a $15 Target gift card for buying two boxes of Cruisers.
    • $69.98 + $1.97 = $71.95 - $2.00 - $2.00 - $2.00 - $0.50 - $1.50 - $15.00 = $48.95 (or $0.20/diaper). I usually pay around $0.16/diaper, but I literally had less than 10 diapers in the house so this was a great deal for a purchase that wasn't planned out very well.
  • Two Reach flosses were $0.92 each ($1.84 for both). I had a manufacturer coupon for $1.00 off the purchase of two.
    • $1.84 - $1.00 = $0.84 (or $0.42 each)
  • Two Head & Shoulder Shampoo's were $4.99 each ($9.98 for both). I had a Buy One Get One Free manufacturer coupon and two $1.00 off the purchase of one manufacturer coupons.
    • $9.98 - $4.99 - $1.00 - $1.00 = $2.99 (or $1.50 each)
Retail price: $83.77 + tax
After coupon price: $52.78 + tax
Savings of: $30.99

That's not a bad savings for an unplanned trip. Honestly, I was only going for the diapers, but I decided to skim through my coupons before heading to the store to see what others items I could purchase for my stock pile while I was there. Money saved & mission complete!
