Elizabeth Target 5/30 spent $6.17

I had to do two transactions because the Target light bulb coupon, Dove hair coupon and Band-Aid coupon can only be used once per transaction.

Transaction #1:

$2.00 - GE Reveal Light Bulbs
- $1.50/1 Target coupon printable
- $1/1 from 4/18 SS insert (made it free plus overage)

$2.79 - Dove Shampoo
- $1/1 Target printable
- $1/1 printable (made it $0.79)

$1.69 - Band-Aid Kid's 25 ct
- $0.75/1 Target printable
- $0.50/1 from 4/25 SS insert (made it $0.44)

Total before coupons: $7.01

Total after coupons: $0.75

Savings of 90%

Transaction #2:

(2) $5.00 - Finish Quantamatic Starter Kit (dishwasher soap with 24 wash cycles)
- $3/1 printable (made it $2.00)

$2.00 - GE Reveal Light Bulbs
- $1.50/1 Target coupon printable
- $1/1 from 4/18 SS insert (made it free plus overage)

$2.79 - Dove Shampoo
- $1/1 Target printable
- $1/1 printable (made it $0.79)

$1.69 - Band-Aid Kid's 25 ct
- $0.75/1 Target printable
- $0.50/1 from 4/25 SS insert (made it $0.44)

$0.99 - Dove + Men Travel Size Soap
- $1/1 from April All You magazine

(3) $1.12 - Olay Bar Soap (Travel section)
- (3) $1/1 from 5/2 P&G insert (made them $0.12 each)

(2) $3.48 - Venus Embrace Razor (clearance)
- $2/1 from 5/2 P&G insert (only had one left but still a great deal)
- I also had a coupon from the 5/2 P&G insert for a free $5 gift card when you buy two. Even though I could not use the gift card on this transaction, if you factor it in, I made $0.04 on this deal.

Total before coupons: $30.08

Total after coupons: $10.42

If you factor in the $5 gift card, I spent $5.42.

After both transactions (including gift card), I spent $6.17, which is a savings of 83%.

Thank you Denise! Yeah, Target is great - if only Walmart would jump on the store coupon train we could probably get even better deals there!
