But before I get to Herbal Essences Shampoo, I wanted to mention their "Buy 1 Get 1 Free" offer on Purex (2 for $6.99). It wasn't the best deal I've ever gotten on Purex, but some of the containers had 20% extra. Adding in my $4 off CVS purchase of $20 or more, I got 120 ounces (76 loads) for $5.59 (compare that to 100 ounces at Publix for $7.69).
Back to the shampoo: Well remember I told you all to get the CVS card because it gives you sale prices and it also triggers valuable coupons too.
Anyway I had a manufacturer’s coupon that took $2 off when I bought 2 bottles of shampoo. Next, CVS is currently running a special on Herbal Essences Shampoo for $2.99 (regularly $4.69), you also get a CVS coupon for $1 Extra Bucks coupon for future purchase. I used existing extra bucks coupons from prior purchases, which will be replaced by the extra bucks coupons from the shampoo that I will use at a later date. The final price for 2 bottles of shampoo with these coupons was $1.99.
But that was before I applied my "$4 off a purchase of $20 or more" CVS coupon that I received for the Coca-Cola products deal I posted last week. My total purchases were just over $20, so my $4 coupon took another 20% off. That took the 2 shampoo bottles down to $1.58, or $0.79 each! (By the way: since my total BEFORE coupons and discounts was over $20.00, I received another "$4 off a purchase of $20 or more" CVS coupon to set up my next deal).
Here are my calculations:
| Shampoo and conditioner: | 2 x $2.99 each = | $5.98 |
| Manufacturers coupon: | ($2.00) | |
| CVS Extra Bucks coupon: | ($2.00) | |
| Prorated $4 coupon: | (0.40) | |
| Subtotal for 2: | $1.58 |
My final cost came out to be a $.79 a bottle!!
