1. Pepsi

Pepsi deals always require stocking up to save. Look for offers like $5 off $20 or $10 off $25 in the Target app. I don’t like to pay over $2.50 for a 12-pack or $5.00 for a 24-pack.

2. Vaseline

The best coupons for Vaseline brand are often found in the Sunday paper. Look for the RetailMeNot coupon insert that comes out most Sundays.

Vaseline coupons are often worth up to $2.00 off one item. Take the coupon to Target and stack with a Buy 4, Get $5 gift card promo or $5 off $15 offer in the Target app. Final prices are often less than $1.00 per bottle.

3. Nexxus stylers

Nexxus stylers retail for around $12 but frequently go on clearance for half that price. Find coupons in the RetailMeNot coupon insert in the Sunday newspaper, in the Target app or Fetch Rewards app. Coupon value is often $2.00 off one or $3.00 off two. I like to pay under $3.00 per item.
