How I got 50 Products for $14.57
I tracked what I bought and how much I paid out for the month of November.
1 Lysol Wipes
1 Pampers
1 Renuzit
1 LSS Inv Dry Orchard
1 Crest Toothpaste
1 Oral-B brush
1 Crest Toothpaste
2 Halls Defense
1 Huggies Jumbo
1 Clorox Wipes
1 Bounty Basic 8 rolls paper towels
1 Herbal Essences
2 Total Advance 4oz
1 Colgate 360 brush
2 boxes of Rice Krispies
4 Kleenex boxes
1 Cottonelle 4 pack Toilet Paper
2 Cotonnelle wipes
1 Secret Deoderant
1 OSpice Deodorant
1 Nyquil Sinus
1 Gil Fusion Proglide
For all of that, I paid a total of $9.93 in four different purchases. In total, I used $81.47 worth of coupons and UPR to pay for these purchases. I wish I would have tracked the retail value of everything, but I did not.
What I thought was even more intriguing, was after I combined November and December totals. In addition to what I got in November above, I also purchased the following in December:
1 Gil Fsn Progld
1 Colgate
1 Dty Moore Beefstew
2 Blistex
4 Airwick Candles
2 Skittles
2 Milky Way
1 Clearsil Wash
1 Motrin PM
2 Cheerios
2 Bandaids
1 VapoRub
1 BabyRub
But for all of that I paid only $4.64.
So in November and December, I paid a total of $14.57 to get everything you see above, and used a total of $138.57 coupons.
