Grocery and Drugstore Deals for July 27 - Aug 1

There are lots of great deals this week, so look over those Sunday sale fliers and break out your coupons. Here's a brief overview of some of the bargains you should be looking for:

• CVS - Don't miss the school supplies this week, and don't pay anything at the register for them by using your extra bucks from last week. You can get free 2-pk pens, binder clips, composition books, erasers, push pins, index card cases, pencil cases, stapler,and 2 pk sticky notes. But hurry - those deals are only good through Tuesday. You can get free 10-pk of CVS tampons, .13¢ Colgate toothpaste, and .99¢ Aussie shampoo or conditioner through the end of the week.

• Rite Aid - You can get school supplies on the cheap here, too, with .25¢ 1-subject notebooks and 10-cnt pencils. And while you are there, pick up Suave shampoo for .39¢, .50¢ Kotex products, Air Wick air freshener spray for .37¢ and a $1.88 box of laundry detergent.

• Kroger's - Kroger's has a special $4 off 4 mix-and-match P&G products promotion going this week. Combine your manufacturer's coupons with the eSaver coupons and sale prices to make a profit on Aussie shampoo. You can also get Tide laundry detergent for $3.53 and BIC pens for just pennies.

• Walgreens - Personally, I don't shop at Walgreens because they make it difficult for super shoppers to get super deals, but my ex sister-in-law loves them! So, here's for you, Amy... free Clairol haircolor, free Goodies hair accessories, $4.99 Conair blowdryer after $10 Register Rewards, free Scotch bubble mailers, free diabetes blood sugar monitor, free Mars candy bars (use 2 coupons), Hunts tomato sauce .39¢, .25¢ Starbucks frappucino, and Ajax cleanser .33¢. They also have back-to-school specials starting at .20¢ on supplies.
  

• Publix - Use two coupons with your Publix BOGO specials to pick up Lawry's 30 Minute Marinade for .43¢, Dial hand soap .49¢, and Yoplait Go-Gurt for .70¢. Combine two coupons for Alexia Natural Crunch Snacks with the BOGO and a manufacturer's rebate to get 2 bags at a $2 profit. Don't forget the Land O' Lakes butter with olive oil - this is the last week to get a full rebate on the purchase price. Use the manufacturer's coupon and make a .55¢ profit. If you do your shopping today, you can also pick up the .1¢ mystery coupon item.

My schedule is very full this week. I will make a point to pick up all my deals, but it may be the end of the week before I can give you the low-down on the savings. Until then - happy shopping and good savings to you!
