The day after Thanksgiving is typically one of the busiest shopping days of the year. And if you are brave enough to stand in line outside your favorite retailer and prepared to shop til you drop, you can really rack up some good bargains that day. I have never been that kind of shopper however.
One retailer I do like to visit for Black Friday deals is CVS. They actually have a 3 day sale starting on Thanksgiving morning. And if you can get there, it is worth it. Last year I had company coming and was cooking for our first Thanksgiving in our new house so I didn't go. However the two years prior I was there first thing and got a few bargains for myself as well as Christmas presents for others like a digital photo frame that with Extra Care Bucks, I spent nothing on. This year my focus is going to be on some of the money makers they have. (Read here for more on the CVS Extra Care Bucks program and how CVS pays you to shop!)
Listerine Pocket Packs will be on sale for $2.99 and for each one you buy, you earn $2.99 in ECB. If you use the $1/1 coupon that was found in the 9/26 Red Plum insert, you not only got the item for free after ECB, you made $1! And those Listerine Pocket Packs will make good stocking stuffers for my family! (limit 2)
Another hot money maker is the Herbal Essence Shampoo and Conditioner. They are on sale for $3.99 each and you earn a $3.99 ECB for every one you purchase (limit 2). There is a $2/1 Clairol Family of Products coupon in the 10/31 P&G inserts. Now your cashier may not want to take this coupon for the Herbal Essence, but Herbal Essence is made by Clairol so it should be accepted. With the coupon and the ECB, you make $2 for every one you buy!
Another great stocking stuffer for my man will be the Gillette deodorant. On sale for $4 with an ECB of $4 given, you can use the $2/1 Gillette deodorant coupon in the 10/31 P&G to make $2! (limit 1)
You can also get the Renpure Organics Shampoo or Conditioner for $4.99, earn $4.99 back in ECB and use the Renpure Mail-In Rebate to get your money back. Forms have been found on the necks of the products! Must be mailed in within 30 days of purchase!
With the ECB I earn from these deals, i want a rice cooker for myself! Those are on sale for $18.88 and give back a $10 ECB!
Walgreens also holds a 3 day sale starting on Thanksgiving morning. Now I have been less enchanted with Walgreens since they did away with their rebate program. However, other shoppers tell me they get some great deals at the retailer, so I am willing to give them another shot!
So far I don't see any deals that really excite me. There is the Herbal Essence Shampoo and conditioner on sale for $2.49 each. You will receive $1.50 back in Register Rewards. Register Rewards can be used like cash on your next transaction. With the $2/1 Clairol Family of products coupon from 10/31 P&G, you can make $1.01 (minus tax) on each. These do have a limit of one Register Reward received per person, per transaction.
