The Target inventory checker showed level bars in stock at the Melrose Park location, which coincided nicely with a planned visit to Oak Park! Crummy Target inventory checked lied – not only zero bars, neither FirstBorn nor I could find any of the Greenworks for the gift card promotion. I mean, it’s not like I am in desperate need of cleaning supplies, even if I were clean.
But luckily my mom needed groceries, so another Jewel to wipe out shelf clear stock up on clearance hair color – this store had both the Clairol and L’Oreal! super woot! Used the overage for ice cream and bananas. probably other stuff, only not as nutritious…
So far I’m up to about 215 in stamps, but I’ve probably had to put out about $15. ugh
Silly question…I understand getting the overage for the hair color with the clearance price, but what do you do with all of that product? I was at my jewel today and saw a bunch of the hair colors you’re talking about, but…is there something I’m missing? You also mentioned P&G overage? I’m doing something way wrong here. My typical trip would be to buy one tide and two downy unstoppables. Use three $2 off coupons and pay with a $15 cat plus cash and get another cat back. So where am I going wrong? Oh…and I saw garnier hair color clearances for $1.18ish. There’s a $2 coupon out for that.
I’ll speak in general here because people handle the products differently – some people sell to friends or at flea markets or on eBay or Amazon (probably Craig’s List as well) or donate to women’s shelters. The point is that you are getting some significant overage that allows you to stock up on items for which we don’t typically find coupons.
The P&G overage is because of high value coupons, paired with sale prices and, in this case, that $5/$50 coupon (if you go up that high).
You are NOT doing anything wrong – you are getting Tide and/or Downy on the very cheap and that’s something you don’t normally find with Tide. Everyone’s scenario will be different, depending on their likes and needs – you are doing great!
Hey!
My emails are getting bounced back. I tried to send you email from your contact. Am I doing something wrong?
Fixed. Thanks for letting me know – wonder if that’s why I haven’t heard back from Brad Pitt…
