Drug stores don't always make for best deal...learning as I go.

So, I needed powder and eyeliner desperately. CVS had B1G1 half-off so I figured that would make a good deal. I had $1 off coupons for both products as well. So, I left feeling pretty good only spending $4.12 for each. That was until I went to Target and realized that regular price those same products are only $4.97 each, less my (2) $1 off coupons=$3.97 each. And, that is before a sale. So, I could have gotten these items much cheaper at Target by holding my coupons for a sale.

So, I have learned cosmetics might not be the best buy at the drugstore unless those items are BOGO Free and you are able to use a BOGO free coupon!!!

Full List of June Online Coupons from Coupons.com, Redplum, and Smartsource

Southern Savers has the full list of coupons from their site. To save ink...only print off coupons that are high value, hard to find, or things you know you will really use. Other than that wait and see if an awesome deal pops up on an item before you print the matching coupon. Just speaking from my first month experience. I got a little printer happy, and then ended up throwing away a large number of coupons I had printed (and my ink and paper money with it.)
