Before I begin posting the deals starting 10/24, I figured I should update my totals from this week of which deals I got. If you're new to Couponing for Charity, here's the background. This was my plan, and below reflects only what I'll be donating. I do keep some deals for my family. I hope you'll consider joining me in my quest of freebies for those less fortunate.
CVS:
- 1 Schick razor ($8.49, got $5ECB, used $4MC=$.51MM)
- 1 Mentos gum (bought 2 at $1.79 each; B1G1 deal; used 2 $1MC=$.11MM each)
WALGREENS:

TOTAL SPENT THIS WEEK: $1.34
TOTAL PRODUCTS TO DONATE TO DATE: 1 lotion, 6 toothpaste, 2 heat wraps, 7 lip balms, 2 body wash, 1 shaving gel, 2 razors, 1 lipstick, 1 multi-purpose solution, 1 candle, 6 first aid kits, 2 deodorants, 2 travel wash detergent packs, 1 cough drops, 2 pantyhose, 1 gum, 3 soups, 2 hand soaps, 2 tuna
TOTAL VALUE OF PRODUCTS: $126.15
TOTAL SPENT: -$2.90 (that's negative nearly three bucks)
So, I actually splurged and spent some money this week because I'm preparing a stash to donate to Second Harvest. I realize I haven't covered my tax, but I'm willing to take a little hit for charity. Normally, I'd be spending close to $10 to donate 10 cans of food. With couponing, I can donate more with less. Having fun yet?
