Walmart Deals

I found some great deals today on Toilet Paper, Paper Towel and Chapstick that I wanted share.

3X Bounty = $7.98 PM Loblaws $4.88 *Coupon for $1.25 = $3.63each

3X Charmin = $8.98 PM Loblaws $4.88 *Coupon for $1.25 = $3.63each

Subtotal = $21.78

HST = $2.83

Total Spent = $24.61

Total Saved = $32.88

BUT did you notice that on the picture of the Bounty Paper Towels there are MORE coupons inside!  I opened them up when I got home and was VERY happy when I saw these ....

and the expiration date on them is September 2013.  So really I made money on this deal :)  If you don't have the same coupons I have you may also have the $1.00 Coupons for Bounty and Charmin and if you don't I still recommend you go and get the Bounty, it is $4.88 but you make that plus some with the coupons.

Next I wanted to check to see if our Walmart had any Nivea Chapstick because I had read online about a coupon that I had lots of getting me the chapstick for free and I was so pleased to find them.

18X Nivea Chapstick = $1.98 *Coupon for $2.00 =  - $0.02each

* The Coupon I had was a tear pad for Nivea Pure&Natural

Subtotal = -$0.36
