It's Baaaaaaack!

Remember the Purex deal I posted about scoring last month?  Well, it's baaaaaaack!  Rite Aid has Purex B1G2 FREE, and those Purex coupons reset a few days after the last deal, so I had a brand new stash of those to use too.

I got 12 bottles of Purex detergent, 3 bags of Purex detergent packs, 4 bottles of Nivea shave gel/foam, Tic Tacs & a small lego set (both not pictured because the kids grabbed them before I could snap the picture!).

Here's the breakdown:
Lego set     $1.59
Tic Tacs     $1.19
(4) Nivea shave     $6  ($1.50 each)
15 Purex detergent  $32.45  ($6.49 each, B1G2 FREE)
-------------------------------
Total before coupons = $43.70

Coupons used:
(2) $1 Rite Aid Up rewards
(5) $1.50/2 Purex
(5) 50c Purex
(2) $3/2 Nivea

Total after coupons = $24.88
Original retail value = $119.56

If I had planned on shopping, then I would have had my newly printed out game coupons with me, which would have allowed me to get the games for FREE!  Hurry & print yours out before they're gone!  If you don't need the games for someone on your list, consider donating them to Toys for Tots or another charitable program in your area.
