Ever since Ryan's mom (Happy Birthday!!) introduced me to the world of coupons, I've been dying to get that really good deal. I've been working on holding on to coupons and checking out sales yielding small successes here and there. CVS seems to be the place to really get some good deals, but their products are not exactly items that we frequently need. I've had my eye on the Dove Skin Vitalizer thing, but it just didn't seem right to spend $13 to try a product for fun.
CVS is having an unadvertised sale according to Southern Savers and there's now a $3.50 coupon. Here's how the pros do it (bear in mind I am no pro, just having fun saving the dolla dolla bills):
Total before sales and coupons: $13.90
Total out of pocket: $0.54
Total savings: 96%
Now that's a deal that makes sense.
In other news, I have officially been "promoted" at Target. Now don't get too excited. It's a lateral move, but still a step in the right direction. I will be in charge of the cosmetics section of the store. The new position has been referred to as Cosmetics Team Captain - me being the only person on the cosmetics team. I'll take it! The key fact to note is that this change in position basically guarantees I am no longer a seasonal employee. Thank God!

Yeah! Yeah! We KNEW Target was going to recognize a rare diamond when they found you! Congrats! Keep on trying with the coupon stuff; I have my ups and downs but am really have some major "ups" lately! Spent something like $33 at CVS; passed my coupons; came down to $17.98 and I got $12 ECB's back! One of my best trips ever! Love you, Maudie
