My First Time

I'm relatively new to couponing, started at the end of March, and although I'm not as good as most of you I'm getting the hang of it. Its a bit tough for me though considering I have to drive 45 miles to get great deals lol. So anyway I went to Walgreens to see if ours had the pull-ups deal (which they didn't) I decided to pick up a few things since I was in town, I went Walgreens, Target and CVS. So now on to the brag….

I got:
3 packs of Charmin
3 boxes of U by Kotex
1 roll of Scotch tape
4 Dawn dish detergents
1 Revlon colorstay aqua mineral makeup
1 Almay makeup remover pads 15 ct.

Walgreens
1-3 Transactions
1 box of U by Kotex, on sale $3.99
*used $1 mf coupon
Total bf Qs: 11.97
OOP: $9.72 w/tax and $9 RR

Trans 4
3 pks. of Charmin, on sale $2.99
1 roll of Scotch Tape, on sale .39
Total bf Qs and RR: $$9.36
OOP: $ .39

CVS:
(Everything I went for was out of stock and my ECBs were about to expire so I had to compromise and who doesn't need free dish detergent!?!)

4 bottles of Dawn, on sale .99
Total before ECB: $3.96
OOP: $0

Target:
Almay makeup remover, $1.47
*Used $1 IP
Revlon makeup, clearanced $3.58
*Used $2 revlon makeup Target Q
Before Qs: $5.05
OOP: $2.05

Total for todays trip would have been: $30.34 bf tax
OOP: $12.16

I'm not sure if its great but I was thrilled considering the makeup itself was $11.99 before clearance.
