Weekend Recap - Extreme Couponing Style

Happy Monday friends!  Yeah, I know, I know - it's been a few days since my last post but things were just beyond my control over that.  Can you forgive me? ;)  I'm really, really hoping that once school starts back up that I am going to start having a lot more time than normal - wish me luck - HA!

Anyway, we spent a lot of time around the house working this weekend.  We are still just trying to get our home back in order and back to the way we want it to be.  So we are replanting flower bushes in the front yard, bark, etc... But, while the hubby and my kiddos were doing all the hard manual labor in the heat - I was enjoying the nice cool air conditioning and did some major couponing this weekend at Wal-Greens!  WOOT WOOT!!!  Check it out:

All of this was $140.11 RETAIL and I only paid $31.60!!!

The crayons were $1 with a $1 rebate so they were "FREE"

Keri Lotion was Buy one at $5.99 each and get $5 back to make it .99 cents - however I had a $2 off coupon - which made it $1.01 overage and made it a MONEY MAKER!!! 

The toothpaste was but 2 for $6 - and get $4 back - plus I had a $1 off coupon - so that made them each 50 cents after everything.  The other items were just filler items.  All of the ink pens were on sale for 29 cents each and I got them all free and only paid 16 cents tax for 3 sets because I used the $1 back from the crayons!! 

Anyway, that's my weekend - how was yours?  Did you do anything fun and exciting or any extreme couponing??? Hee hee hee

Have a great day! I have to run before I'm late.  Thanks for stopping by to say hello and I will catch up on your blogs something throughout the day.

Lots of love and hugs,
