Just a little example

So I wanted to show you all this because when you first start out you may just want to start small to get use to how it works.
So here is what I got:

* 2 Banana Boat Baby Sunblocks
* 2 starbucks cold coffees


only 4 items. I spent $10.02 on these items. I spent less on the whole purchase than ONE sunblock is itself. So the sunblock was buy one get one FREE. So I bought 2. I also had a coupon for $2 off of one. That means for 2 sunblocks that cost $10.99/each I got both for $8.99. Then the coffees I had 2 coupons for $1 off each 1. So from being $2.59 each they went down to $1.59... then I used doublers on those 2 $1 off that means they were .59/each! I saved $18.79 this trip 65%!

Just in case you didn't know...on the BOGO promos...you can use TWO coupons, even though you're getting one free. So not sure if you only had one coupon, but if you had two, just remember you can use two even though it's buy one get one free, so you could have gotten both of the sunblocks for $6.99. You probably already know this though! :) Great job!
