Holy Cow!!! Like I said, I need to go shopping with you! I'm envious!!


Ok I have a question. On the 3 oyno, I have 5 coupons for the colgate. I know I need to spend $10 to get the coupon. Does the $10 go by the shelf price or sale price? Or does it go towards the price after coupons?

And if so, is the soft soap hand soap included in the deal or just the body wash?

LOL Most of the work goes on behind the scenes - gotta plan plan plan. I have all my transactions planned out exactly, with coupons clipped together and put into pockets of a pocket photo album. Each transaction is in order, and has all the coupons needed in each pocked that would normally hold one picture.

I start by typing up the products included in the sale with their shelf prices. Then I see what coupons I have and type the price AFTER coupon before the item. So it would look like this:

FREE Colgate Luminous (2.79 shelf)
29 cents Softsoap hand soap (99 shelf)
etc.

Then I try to figure out what items, going by shelf price, will get me to the required spending amount. So if I need to spend 10$ I'll just keep trying combos until I find what works. I type them up as I figure them out. Then I add the price I'll pay after sales and coupons (the price I typed up before the item).

So say I wanted just softsoap and toothpaste and I have 3 of each coupon. I could do 3 toothpaste = 8.37 and then I need 1.63 to get to 10$. So 2 sotfsoap hand soaps will do that.

So my scenerio would be

1st transaction:
FREE 3 Colgate Luminous (2.79 shelf)
58 cents 2 Softsoap hand soap (.99 shelf)
58 cents OOP
get back 3$ oyno

Then I'd go on to the next one. I don't try to figure in tax because that's just too much to try and figure out as far as what's taxed and what's not. And then the OYNO coupons sometimes take tax off...and it's just too much like work LOL


To actually answer your questions though:
10$ is by shelf price. Everything I've tried in the Colgate/Palmolive deal works by shelf price. The 10$ if BEFORE coupons. So 5 toothpastes would work, and then use five 75c mqs and pay 0 (not counting tax) but still get the 3$ oyno.

All this in included:
Colgate toothpaste (including kid's)
Colgate toothbrushes (including kid's)
Palmolive Dishwashing Soap (including Pure+Clear)
Irish Spring bar soap or body wash
Softsoap liquid hand or body wash
Mennen men's and ladies(sic) speed stick
Suavitel fabric softener or dryer sheets (my store doesn't carry these)
Ajax dish liquid

I've only been able to do one transaction so far (sigh), but I got 2 colgate (2 for 3) and 2 ladies speedstick 24/7 (2 for 4) and it worked great!! My store was out of the .99 softsoap. Thanks for all your help neekyme!!!!
