I've been reading several frugal blogs for a little while now and several of them recommend shopping at CVS, Walgreens and Rite Aid. They all come out with some great deals! I'm making it my mission to figure out these places and how their deals work. I don't know of a CVS all that close to my house so I don't look at their ads but have been checking out the Walgreens and Rite Aid ads recently. I've read where some frugal bloggers hardly ever pay much of anything for toiletry type stuff (toothpaste, toothbrushes, makeup, shampoo/conditioner, soap, feminine products, etc.). I've seen where one woman has said that she hasn't paid for any toiletries for about 3 years. This is amazing to me!
When the kids go back to school I'll probably focus on finding drugstore deals more often. For now I'll go when I can...and since Rite Aid is near our library (which we frequent often!), I seem to be finding myself there a little more often and the cashier is remembering us--good or bad...I'm not sure!? LOL! So, at Rite Aid today I got a great deal! In their ad for this week, they have Stayfree maxi pads buy one, get one free. In Sunday's coupon inserts there was a coupon for the same deal--buy one, get one free. I wasn't sure how this would work since the sale was BOGO and so was the coupon. Rite Aid allows you to get their sale AND use the BOGO coupon. I had 2 coupons for this because I had picked up an extra paper on Sunday and got 4 packages for FREE!
Do you shop at the local drugstores? What kind of deals do you get on toiletry items? I've also read where they have some good food prices (with coupons) but haven't seen anything I'm willing to buy yet...maybe soon though!?
