A Deal a Week: The Beginning
I may not always post the details, but one of the things I am going to try to do in 2009 is make sure I get at least one amazing deal a week. I can remember years past when I got dozens of free Milton Bradley games or massive boxes of Ziploc reusable containers for $.19 a box. Deals like that used to be easy to find.
Now days you have to search a little harder.
I went ahead and started this week. I’ll call this my first great deal of 2009.
At CVS all Nature’s Bounty vitamins and supplements are Buy One Get One Free (BOGO). On top of that, CVS will give you $3 in what they call Extra Bucks (EB) to spend on a future purchase.
I signed up at the Nature’s Bounty website for their newsletter and they gave me a printable coupon for $2. I also found an additional $2 printable coupon elsewhere.
I found bottles of Potassium Gluconate 595 Mg Caplets at my local CVS for $4.89. I picked up two bottles, used a $2 coupon for each of them and ended up paying $.89 for the two bottles, since one was free. I also received the $3EB.
Essentially, I made $3.11.
I take the Potassium when I have had to take a diuretic or am dehydrated. It also helps when I have a headache or when my high-protein diet causes a potassium shortage.
