95% OFF - I love this!!

I very recently (a couple days ago) discovered a wonderful blog - Centsible Shopper, http://centsibleshopper.blogspot.com/. Thanks to her postings, Centsible Shopper: Walgreens clearance deals and Centsible Shopper: Walgreens Deals: December 30 to January 5, this evening I purchased $74.70 in product for an end cost of $0.42. Yes, that's 42 CENTS!!

Here's how I did it:
Product Reg. Price Sale Price Mfg. Coupon
Easy Saver Rebates Paid
Rx Essentials
$14.99 $14.99 $5.00 $3.00 $14.99 -$8.00
Rx Essentials – BOGOF $14.99 $0.00 $5.00 $3.00 $0.00 -$8.00
Post-It Products (6 items) -had 3 coupons, each $3/2
$18.24 $18.24 $9.00
$0.00 $0.00 $9.24
L'Oreal Couleur Experte Hair Color $18.99 $8.49 $0.00 $3.00 $0.00 $5.49
Garnier Nutrisse Multi-Lights Highlighting Kit $7.49 $3.19 $0.00 $1.50 $0.00 $1.69
TOTALS
$74.70 $44.91 $16.00 $10.50 $14.99 $0.42

I subscribed for a few months to a website that would put together weekly lists of Walgreens' specials, what coupons were out there, what rebates you could combine, etc. I never got this sort of value out of it. The difference? Centsible Shopper listed only the exceptional deals, including links to printable coupons (as opposed to noting a coupon in the Sunday newspaper 2 months ago that I might or might not have) and links to active rebates.

THANK YOU, CENTSIBLE!!
