Here is our loot:
The total price (before taxes, and sale prices): $246.78.
We paid: $71.36.
We paid: $71.36.
That's a 71% savings.
How'd we do it? Haha! Well, we separated our merchandise into 3 purchases, utilized two $10 register reward we recieved with our Protor and Gamble Products on 2 of the transactions, and bought a ton of Christmas clearance items. We don't get that high of savings all the time when we shop -- our average is between 20%-40% savings on our purchases -- but with the Christmas clearance, great sales, coupons, and the two $10 register rewards we really made a great deal!
Most of the Christmas items were .50 cents each! We got lots of cards, wrapping paper, and gift bags & singing gift boxes.
Thank you Proctor & Gamble!
We could have saved even more on this purchase had we been able to take advantage of Olay's rebates, but the other deal seeking mom's in Utah stole our thunder and bought out all the qualifying items that would make the purchase a good deal. This time we let go of the money making Olay deal in hopes that we can still use it later on, before those Olay rebates expire.
We also watched the broadcast of the New Year's festivities at the House of Blues in Boston, and shared out very first New Years Kiss. *tender*
Happy New year everyone.
