Ten Dollars at Target

There is some concern at that I am just “hoarding” at this point, but you say hoarding, I say stocking up. The truth is, I am buying things for the game of couponing, but I make it a point to ask myself with every purchase: is this something I will actually use. One thing I’ve noticed through my increased consumerism is that there are a lot of products out there that you don’t really need and can easily live without, but they sure are nice to have. My latest Target trip last week included some of them, such as the bathroom wipes, which make it 100x easier to keep the bathroom clean. So there.

I paid $10, used $10 in coupons  and got:

Ortega Taco Shells (On sale $1.50- $1 mfg coupon = Paid $.50)

Old El Paso Taco Seasoning (Reg price $.69- $.50 coupon = Paid $.19)

Scrubbing Bubbles bathroom wipes (On sale $2.50 – $.55 coupon = Paid $1.95)

Bengay (Reg price $4.89 – $5 coupon = MADE $.11)

Presidente Feta (On sale $3.50 – $1.25 coupon = Paid $2.25)

Cascade dishwasher detergent sample pack (Reg price $1.09 – $1 coupon = paid $.09)

2 Temptations cat treats (On sale $1.50 – $1/2 coupon = Paid $1 each)

5 Campbells Soups (On sale $1 – $1/5 coupon = Paid $.80 each)

The internets are telling me those Cascade sample packs are under $1 each at Walmart, and it’s possible I bought some more coupons off ebay and will go let Walmart pay me to buy them soon.
