Today, my mom and I had a little couponing/freebie experiment and I got all of the stuff you see above for only about $11.50! Normally, that would have cost over $70.
Here's a break down:
The first aid kits were only 44 cents total after coupon (great for carrying in your purse)
The toothpaste was only 7 cents.
The lighters were FREE with coupon.
And how did I score $66 worth of Bath and Body Works products for $11?
3 coupons for FREE 2oz bottles of their new lotion, 'Into the Wild'. One redeemed by me, two redeemed by my daughters.
Then I had a coupon that would give me a free item worth up to $5, with ANY purchase. So I bought a little bottle of their new lotion scent, which was on sale for $1 instead of $3.50. Then for my FREE item, I got a $5 bottle of lotion (bottom middle of pic)
After that purchase, they gave me a coupon for a free item up to $12, with any $10 purchase, so I turned right around and used it! The 2oz bottles of their new scent were on sale for $1 each instead of the usual $3.50. I bought ten of those, bringing my total for that transaction to $10, and allowing me to get a FREE Signature Collection item (middle of photo). So I got the $12 bottle of body cream for free.
Yup, all that awesome B&BW lotion for 11 bucks!
To top it all off, it was all technically completely free. I paid for it with a $25 American Express card that I got for free, bwahahahaa! Zero money out of pocket. Yup, happy camper here, lol.
Here's what my mom got:
She used the same coupons. Got one free bottle of their new lotion. Bought another bottle of it for $1 and got a free $5 bottle in a different scent. Then instead of getting 10 little bottles like I did, for $10, she got 3 of the $5 bottles, that were on sale 3/$10. So that made her transaction $10, and she got herself a free big Signature Collection lotion for it. Overall, she also spent only $11 at Bath and Body works, and just 51 cents for her other items.
It was a GREAT day and we LOVE our memberships to That Free Thing!!!
