Coupon Use: Store Sale and Manufacturers Coupon Combination

I will show you how to use Coupons in several ways. This is Store Sale - Rite Aid has a sale on-going for this item Pantene Shampoo/Conditioner. Regular Price is $4.99 each and Manufacturers Coupon.

Remember when I mentioned that your mindset is that you are shopping for what your family will use for a year, not for at this moment. At this moment, I have like a dozen shampoos and conditioners in my stockpile. There is a high value coupon $5/3 and it is on sale, perfect time to purchase.

Lesson 5 - Circulars

Above is an example of a Manufacturers Coupon. Thing to check: date, bar codes, number of items to be bought = 3, size = excluded 6.7 oz and trial size.

It states, LIMIT OF 4 LIKE COUPONS PER HOUSEHOLD PER DAY. When you shop, you can only use 4 of these coupons at one purchase transaction. Want more, come back or ask someone to purchase for you.

On Lesson 5, we discussed Circulars. In the picture below, Rite Aid circular shows this deal 3 For $10 less Manufacturers Coupon $5/3 = 3 for $5.

Depending on the size and consumption of your family, you should plan to stock-up. For this shopping, each shampoo/conditioner is $1.66.  

Without the coupons, this will cost me $14.97. I saved $9.97 for waiting for a store sale and using a Manufacturers coupon.

Savings: $9.97

The savings adds up as you coupon for different items that you purchase for your self/family.

Another way of doing this is if you missed out on the $5/3 coupon, you may print a $2/2 coupon. CLICK HERE.

This means $2 off 2 Shampoos/Conditioner from this link
So if you buy 6 pcs and the sale is 3 For $10 = you pay $20
You can use 3 of the $2/2 = less $6
Your cost will be $14 for 6
$2.33 each

You do not get as much value as having the $5/3 coupon but still let you purchase the product way less of its $4.99 regular price.
