Charmin toilet paper 9 count- $4.99

When I got to CVS I scanned my card in the little coupon checker thing and a coupon for $.50/2 Pretzel M&M's came out. This is great because Chris and I are snackers and we love our M&M's. THEN at checkout there was a deal on the Pretzel M&M's for Buy 2, get 1 free!!! So I got 3 for $1.28.

Anywho, they were also all out of the Crest toothpastes that were on sale, so I'll have to go back later on this week to get them.

While I was looking for the toothpastes there was an Aquafresh "travel size" (I say "travel" because it was actually quite large) on clearance from $1.70 to $.49 so I snatched it up!

The Purex in itself is a fantastic deal and I would definitely recommend doing them if you have this coupon.

So here's how my deals went:

CVS:

Purex before sales and coupons- $7.99 each

Aquafresh toothpaste before sale- $1.70

M&M's before sale and coupon- $.89 each

= $20.35 before savings and discounts

Total after: $6.65

Total savings: $13.70

Walgreens:

Everything at Walgreens went as posted above, however I had a $.25 coupon of Charmin toilet paper, but I'd need a filler anyways (which are a little more that $.25) so it wasn't worth using it!
Here are my savings:

Herbal Essence before savings and coupons: $2.99 each
Pilot Pens: $1.99 each
Charmin sale price: $4.99
=$12.96 before savings
After savings: $7.90
Total savings: $5.06


Also, these totals are WITH tax, so my total spent before tax was: $10.74!
Good day :)
