I've been asked, "How do you use coupons?" "Where do you find them?" "Why do you use coupons?"
Well let me show you...
Today I went to Target because I had a few prescriptions (3) to pick up. Well only two were ready so I only got to use 2 of my coupons. The coupons I'm speaking of were in the Target Sunday ad (which you can pick up at customer service). The coupon is for a $10 gift card when you have a prescription filled or transferred. So I paid $19 for 2 and they gave me 2 $10 gift cards. Then I went shopping for the rest...
My first transaction-
Ups Wipes $2.24 (-$1 printed Target coupon)
Finish Detergent $2.50 (-$.50 Target coupon from newspaper)
2 Starburst Sour Jelly Beans $4.98 (Just b/c I love them)
Excedrin 50ct. $5.99 (-$3 printed Target coupon, -$1 coupon from newspaper)

2 Cars (b/c Evan had to have them) $2.00

Plus I got another gift card for $5.00 because I bought 2 Pantene products!!!
