When I looked at the CVS ad this morning nothing sparked my attention, so I headed out to Target and scored some pretty good deals.

Lisa's Shopping Tip

When I first reviewed the ad, I was most interested in getting the DVD for my little rascals as an Easter present. I always try to get the most out of the money I spend so I scoured the ad some more and found the Gillette Gift Card offer. I search the GS Alphabetical Coupon Index and found that there were some awesome coupons that I could pair with the sale. I knew if I was able to get 2 $5 gift cards I could get the DVD for FREE. Here is the breakdown of the DVD and razor deal.

TRANSACTION #1

4 Gillette Razors @ 7.99 = 31.96

- $18 Manufacture Coupons and Store Coupon (remember you can stack MQ and SQ)

Total OOP $13.96

Received $10 in Gift Cards

TRANSACTION #2

1 DVD @ $10.00

- $10.00 in Gift Cards

Total Out of Pocket $0.00

So because I had 2 transactions and rolled the "rewards" from the first into the second I was able to get more for the money I spent.
