You can play the drugstore game, and really get into it. Rolling your ECBs and UP Rewards, doing money maker deals, and stockpiling a lot of stuff, some of which you don’t need and can donate.
Or, if you have little kids and don’t have the time to stay up with all the deal scenarios (and can’t get to the store early in the morning before all the deal items are sold out!) – you can do little deals here and there to get what you need. You might pay slightly more in the long run, but overall you are still saving.
This week, I knew my stockpile on shampoo was running low. I saw there was a deal on Finesse shampoo for only $.99 after ECB rewards. I used the $2 ECB to pay for all my other products. I ended up spending less than $4 for everything pictured!
