Walgreens & CVS – Did you Save Money This Week? Are You Prepared for Disaster?

Walgreens had another Friday Only $10 off $30 purchase coupon so I was pretty motivated to go. I had found a couple of things I needed/wanted, but I didn't really think I'd have $30 worth of merchandise. Then my husband reminded me that the "Disaster Prep no tax" incentive was still in place.

I bought:

2 packs-Duracell AA batteries for $8.99 each and used 2 $1.00 coupons
2 packs Bandaids on sale for 2/$5 and used 2 $1.00 coupons
1 tube Neosporin on sale for $4.99 and used a $1.00 coupon
2 Excedrin Migraine 24s on sale for 1.99 each and used 2 $2.00 coupons (ended up being FREE!)
2 bags Chex Party mix on sale for $.99 each and used $1.00 off 2 coupon
1 box Dried Apricots for $1.00
1 box Dried Pineapple for $1.00

I paid $.35 in sales tax, used my $10. off $30 purchase coupon for a total cost of $14.43 (total savings of $22.59)

Supplies for our Emergency Preparedness Kit:
1 pack batteries
1 pack bandaids
Neosporin
1 bottle Excedrin
