Sorry to everyone for my abrupt absence. I have had a lot of trouble lately even just accessing a computer ever since my laptop crashed in October. I’ve basically been stuck in a computer lab trying to do my homework with the few hours I have until the lab closed. Not only that, pretty much all of my CVS ECB and Walgreens RR expired since I had no free time to roll them lately since I always have to run over to the computer labs!

I apologize again! I’m going to try and update regularly from now on because when it comes down to it, I still really want to help people!

To look on the bright side, I get to start all over again. So hopefully new coupon users will find it easier getting in to the swing of things since I’ll be starting over with them. =)

Until I finally get a new computer though, I can’t 100% guarantee my updates to be on schedule. For those that have offered to help me, here it is.

Thanks to everyone for their support!

A few weeks ago, I made my very first purchase at Drugstore.com. Considering its such a large site with many positive reviews, it seemed safe enough and I went ahead with my order.

I purchased 3 Burt’s Bees Toners and 1 Burt’s Bees chapstick. The toners are absolutely FABULOUS. My boyfriend and his family has pretty stubborn acne and this is the only toner that actually takes away all the dirt. We even tested more expensive toners and popular toners but in the end, the Burt’s Bees toner was still getting rid of dirt even after the other toners stopped! I’ll show proof of this later!

Anyways, we received the shipment last week  I thought the packaging seemed a little weak considering they were all glass bottles but everything seemed fine so I quickly dismissed it. However,  it turns out that one of the toner’s cap was completely broken to the point where hardly any toner was left in the bottle.

Here is the evidence:

Judging by the looks of it, I don’t think that crack occurred during shipment. It looks like it was actually torn and perhaps shipping made it worse?

Regardless, all the presents for the sister that were RIGHT under the box of toners are completely ruined. I e-mailed Drugstore.com earlier today. We’ll see if they even respond! I’ll update this post once they do. If they don’t, then please take this post as a precaution before you order from them!

Update: They finally took care of things. After sending several e-mails back and forth, Drugstore.com was kind enough to completely reship my order free of cost. That means, I got my whole order sent to me again. This was a huge surprise considering I only asked them to resend the one bottle that broke.

I definitely recommend Drugstore.com for their customer service. They were completely nice overall. The only thing was, the whole process took a bit of time, which may discourage people, but it was worth it in the end. =)

Sorry for my lack of freebies post! To make up for it, here they are a day early! =)

FREE Sample of Enfamil (baby formula) HERE

FREE Enfamil Breastfeeding Support Kit
I ordered this a few weeks ago for my roommate and it came with lots of samples & nursing stuff. I highly recommend!

Free Venon Energy Drink when you buy one
I know this one is random but I thought some mommies could use a little boost during their hectic days! Plus, they were giving these out for free today on campus and they were pretty good so I thought I’d share. If you’ve ever had an AMP energy drink, they taste similiar.

PlanningFamily
My roommate actually told me about this site. She said they send out diaper coupons & formula samples pretty often. Their site is also pretty neat. They have articles of top baby names from every year, due date calendars, and a lot more. It seems worth it to sign up just for the coupons though!

Quality Health
This is a HUGE site about all the different ways you can improve your health. I first found it when I was researching Alzheimer’s disease for my grandmother but they have everything you can possibily imagine. I”ve been a member for 3 years now and they do send pretty good samples – not that often though but often enough. This page is offering deals and samples just for families so I thought it would be useful. This page is just for general samples.

CVS Circular Ad 8/16 – 8/22 Update

CVS Tampons are $1.89 and earns $1.89 ECB= FREE

Confirmed in Southern California and Nationwide.

Areas Uncomfirmed: Northern California, Florida, Santa Barbara, and Nevada. These areas currently all have different ADs, thats why they’re unconfirmed.

---

Sobe is currently listed as $1.99 in ALL of the ads but it has been ringing up as $1.59 in Southern California and Nationwide. Use the B1G1 Sobe Coupon to make Sobe COMPLETELY free this week! Just pay $.10 for CRV.

---

The Ice Breakers gum deal for the California Ads have been known to not print ECBs for some flavors even though they’re all marked. This isn’t consistent since I bought the 2 flavors last night and they both produced ECB so YMMV. Just make sure to check before you leave the store.

Next time you drop by CVS, remember to check the Benefiber section for the Benefiber with  Calcium thats pictured above. They are marked at the clearance price of $2.92 and since Benefiber produces $3 ECB!! Not only that, use this $2 coupon off Benefiber to make this a $2 moneymaker!

The $2.92 price only shows when its actually scanned. The price sticker on the shelf should read about $9.99.
