Bullseye Bargains

There are tons of coupons stacks available right now for Target. If you're new to this a "stack" is using a manufacturer coupon and target coupon together for one item. I put the stacks together that I might want to use - if the price is right - and headed off to Target. 

$2 total stack for A1

$3 total stack/2 lunchables with fruit

$2 total stack Snackwell's popcorn (dying to try these!)

$2 total stack for Newtons Fruit Thins 

$3 total stack/2 Ritz Crackerfuls


$5 total stack for Nivea Lotion

$6 total stack for Nivea Cellulite Lotion

$4.50 total stack/2 Pantene

$3 total stack for Nivea lotion

$1 off Shout = Free travel shout wipes



So here is what I came home with.             


Breakdown:

Ritz Crackerfuls 
$2.40 each
$3 stack = $1.80 for 2

SnackWell's
$2.79
$2 stack = .79

Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce
$1.25
$1 MQ = .25

Charmin Wipes (we were out)
$2.99
$1 MQ = $1.99

Bertolli pasta sauce (all out - how did that happen?)
$1.99 each
$1/2 TQ = $2.98 for 2

Shout Wipes
.97
$1 MQ = Free

Up&Up Liners (adding to stockpile)
.89
.75 TQ = .14

Retail cost = $17.67
Total cost after coupons = $7.95

There are several other great deals using the stacks that I have but I like to wait until the product is on sale for maximum savings. If it doesn't go on sale and the coupon is going to expire I have to decide if it is worth it or if I should let it pass. For example, the $4.50 Pantene stack is a great deal if you use Pantene but I already have a full stockpile of shampoo/conditioner so I'm not going to use it. If you want them just let me know, I'll send them your way.

  2. Wow you did great! But the Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce said $1/3. Did you buy 3?

  3. Yowza! I didn't notice the "three" and I am a stickler for reading the details on coupons. It went past the cashier and the computer with no problems also!
