Target's deals $8.11 out of pocket for 4 Transactions on 7-31-13

Hey everyone.  I'm sorry I'm a bit behind on my posting.  A few little life issues got in my way.  I wanted to share some great deals that I did at Target on 7/31/13.  As you know we had a ton of coupons expiring & I really didn't want them to go to waste so off to Target I ran after my little guy went on the school bus.  I ended up going to 2 different stores because my local one was wiped out of clearance etc.

There are 4 different transactions in this blog because the 2nd store decided to make up their own coupon policy that day.  This is why it is so very important for you to make sure you are carrying that corporate policy on you when you shop with coupons.  I broke my own rule & did not have them on me :(

My 1st trip was small as I mentioned not much left in the store.  But, I still did really well.

Breakdown:
Clairol Herbal Essence Shampoo $2.49 each, bought 2 & used the $5/2 "any" Clairol item = Free
Covergirl Mascara on Clearance for $3.12 - used $1.50 manufacturer coupon & Target mobile coupon $1.00 off any Covergirl product = $.62c
(I do not know what the extra .05c  Target coupon on my receipt is from, but they took an additional .05c off on my reciept)
Total out of pocket $.58c (saved $8.63 this trip)

The 2nd trip was to 1 store but I had to do 3 separate transactions.
Transaction 1 Breakdown:
Tide to go Pen on clearance for $2.05 - used $1 off any Tide product mobile coupon (forgot to give her my .50c off one as I was a bit of a mess when she made me break down my transaction, after ringing it all in)
GE 60W Lightbulbs $4.39 - used the $2.00 off Target coupon
Right Guard body wash $3.49 - used $1.50 manu coupon & $2.00 Target coupon = Free
Clairol Herbal Essence body Wash $2.99 each - used $5/2 product coupon - $1.00 for both
Venus Razor $5.99 - used $5.00 off manu coupon & $3.00 Target coupon = giving me $2.01 overage
2 Bayer chewables $2.24 each - used 2 $2 manufacturer's coupons
Mead portfolio $1.00 each purchased 2 - used $1/2 target coupon & $1/2 manufacturer coupon = Free
Total out of pocket for this was $3.06 (saved $25.50 this trip)


Transaction #2 was an interesting one as she had to give me back a coupon because the system would not let me have a "Free" transaction:
Febreeze $2.99 each purchased 2 - used 1 .50c Target coupon (tried to use 2 but this is one she had to give me back) & $3/2 Febreeze products
Venus razor $5.99 - used $5 manu coupon & $3 Target coupon = give me $2.01 overage
Total out of pocket was $.50c (saved $11.50 this trip)


Transaction #3:
Venus razor $5.99 - used $5 manu coupon & $3 Target coupon = giving me $2.01 overage
Playtex $6.99 each, $5 gift card if you purchase 2 x 2 is $13.98 - used 2 $3 manu coupons & 2 $1 Target coupons = making these $5.98 plus the $5 GC back
Paid $3.97 out of pocket & got $5 (saved $21.00 this trip)


My total out of pocket for all 4 transactions was $8.11 & I got the $5 GC back
