75% Clearance Cold and Flu at CVS!

Be on the lookout for clearance allergy, sinus, and cold and flu items at your CVS! I was able to spot many items both CVS brand and brand names 25-75% off! I noticed a lot of them did not expire until winter 2013 too! I picked up this CVS brand twin pack of cold and flu syrup for $2.34! Perfect for this summer cold I have now! ;) and perfect for this upcoming winter! No coupons needed, but if you have some CVS Extra Care Bucks you can use those too!

Home Depot Cheapies!

I can have some fun in Home Depot. I needed some more wood stain for a crazy project I'm working on, and ended up venturing down the cleaning supplies aisle. Scored 3 twin-pack boxes of toilet bowl cleaners for $0.92 total! Cheaper than dolla tree and the Wahhhhll-Maht! They were on clearance for $0.83 from $3.49 and had $0.55 cent peelie coupons stuck on each! Why am I so excited about toilet bowl cleaner drop fizzies? Umm... I dont know. I think I have a couponing  problem. But, I live in an ooooold apartment and these things help with the old pipes and the water stains!!! Wee. 

And, I've gotten much more magical deals. I've just yet to post! ;)

Laundry Dayyys!

It doesn't take much to excite me. About a week ago I went to Lowes to look for something. I can't even remember what now. But, I always end up going down the household cleaner aisle. Once in a blue moon, I'll find something I need that's on "markdown". And yes, why the heck does Lowes mark things down?

Well, I SCORED three bottles of Method 32 load Water Lily fabric softener at 1.48 each on clearance! No coupons used! They normally were 8.99 there... and I've seen them at Target from about 8 - 10$! Three bottles for $5 with tax! Wooo, and it smells wonderful too! And, I love coupons, but anytime I can score a sweet deal on some laundry essentials I try and stock up! So, if you're ever perusing Lowes or Home Depot, check out their household cleaner aisle! 

Retail Therapy: Thrifty Style!

I LOVE shopping! I hit up TJ Maxx after work today to find some treasures! I absolutely love decorating my first apartment! I am not a fan of "cookie cutter" decor schemes, so I've had a blast decorating with items from thrift stores, antique stores, yard sales, boutiques, and even a few things from the side of the road! ;)

In efforts to maintain my couponing/thriftiness journal, here's what I scored for deals at TJ Maxx!

I spent a total of ~$17 dollars on fun goodies! I was able to get a super cute polka-dot laptop case for $8.99! That was my biggest purchase. I also scored some Martha Stewart stationary (30 & 70 cents, yeah!), scrapbooking tools, hair treatments, decorative plate, dog collar & accessories, and two gifts for friends-- all clearance! My favorite finds were three giant size Yankee Candles! They were on clearance because they were melted to where the wick wasn't exposed. I have candle warmers, so thought, SWEET! They were $2 each! And smell... fabulous! ;) Keepin it 23 and thrifty!
