Scenario Sunday: for the week of 11/16-11/22

CVS: If you don’t do any other deals this week, the Duracell batteries deal is DEFINITELY worth it! Stock up now for the holidays or for your emergency stockpile.

Here are my scenarios for the week:

SCENARIO #1:
Buy L’Oreal Age Perfect Pro-Calcium Sheer tint moisturizer – $15.99
Buy Vaseline body lotion – $5.99
Buy Zantrex-3 – $4.99

Use $3/15 CVS skincare CRT, use $1 L’Oreal moisturizer manufacturer’s coupon, use $1.50 Vaseline lotion coupon. Spend $21.47, get $22.98.

SCENARIO #2:
Buy 2 Duracell battery packs – $5.99/each
Buy 4 Glade candle holders – 4/$10

Use $5/2 CVS Duracell battery tear pad, two .75/1 Duracell battery coupons, $1 Glade candle CRT, and 2 $1.50/2 Glade candles manufacturer’s coupons. Spend $11.48, get $5 ECB.

**I will complete 4 more transactions where I buy the batteries (you can only use the CVS tear pad coupon once per transaction). I will spend $29.64 in ECBs and earn $45. So I will make $15 in ECB stocking up on batteries.

**I will do the Duracell deal on my other card also, but I don’t have any more tear pad coupons (I traded for the 5 I did get), so I will just use manufacturer’s coupons. I will spend $54.64 and get $45 in ECB. So, it’s like getting 11 packages of batteries (I will have to get a small package as a filler to get over $60) for $9.64. I bought my Duracell coupons on eBay. I got 20 for $1.99 shipped.

**Another deal this week is the Gold Emblem (CVS brand) spices. They are BOGO free Sunday and Monday. Their spices include things such as chicken bouillon cubes, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoning salt, parsley, and black pepper. I have used all of these and they work great. You get two spices for $.99 during the BOGO sale.

KROGER – See the scenario I posted last week to get 30 items for about $12. I will try to put together another one today.

RANDALLS –
There is a Super Coupon in today’s paper for 3 pop tarts for $3. You can combine this with the $1/2 Pop Tarts manufacturer’s coupon that was in last week’s paper and get 3 boxes of Pop Tarts for $2. I am going to try to come up with a scenario so that I can get over $50 and use a $10 off $50 and get the $10 Home for the Holidays catalina back.

WALGREENS
I will be buying the Claritin – $18.99, the 3/$1 Scotch tape, and the Butterball chicken broth (.39/each). I will use a $5 RR, a $3 printable Claritin coupon.

I will spend $13.16 and get a $5 RR back.
