I was an expert in Atlanta and the South but now happily reside in Columbia, Missouri!

Whether you are a seasoned couponer in a new area OR a beginner- I know I can help walk you through what to do and help you start saving big! Starting over has made me realize how newbies to coupons feel and made me walk a grocery store aisle or two in a beginner's shoes again!

Drugstore 101: Baby Steps!

I'm putting together a webinar about working the drugstores and our Avery Cubs Coupon Club is going to go over the drugstores details at our meeting next week. Since working drugstores deals are probably the most asked questions, I thought I would share a quick, easy deal that I did today.

At Walgreens, Infusium Hair Care is $5.99 and you receive a $2 Register Reward. I had my $5 off coupon from becoming a fan on Facebook for 1 Infusium product. I paid a total of $1.35 for the 8 ounce Leave In Treatment and got my $2 Register Reward.
My next transaction I bought my daughter's Valentine's Day cards for her class. They were $2.99 so I used my $2 Register Rewards and paid $1.17 total.
Between the 2 transactions, I paid $2.52 and got a hair product and Valentine's Day cards for one class. Both items were well under the cost of the cards alone!

So don't feel like you have to start out with these elaborate, detailed deals to work the drugstores. Baby steps on things you need and can use to start with will get you comfortable, not overwhelmed and prepare you to really hit the drugstore deals in no time with a vengeance!
