Free Clairol Hair Color = $15.00 Profit!

Last week I posted about getting FREE Tampax Radiant at Rite Aid and CVS here, noting that it resulted in $11.97 towards the Proctor & Gamble mail in rebate. Today I completed the requirement to spend $50.00 for the rebate by purchasing Clairol hair color at Rite Aid. This scenario worked well for me because I have a Gold (20%) Wellness discount. If you don't, you can still do it, but will pay some out of pocket.

I bought 5 boxes of Clairol Nice & Easy hair color - Reg. price $7.99
With discount - $6.39 each
Total = $31.95

This qualified me for the $10.00 Up Reward that you get when you spend $30.00 on Clairol products this week.

Then I found a box of Clairol Natural Instincts in the clearance section for $4.49, which I added to my transaction. I needed a total of 6 boxes to use the following coupons:

Save $5.00 when you buy 2 Clairol Hair Color from the 4/15 Smart Source insert (3 of those)

Save $4.00 when you buy 2 Clairol Hair Color from the Rite Aid flyer (in-ad) (3 of those)

So my transaction looked like this:  $31.95 + $4.49 = $36.44

Minus

$15.00 in manufacturer's coupons

$12.00 in store coupons 

Coupons = $27.00

$36.44 - $27.00 = $9.44 total out of pocket

Get back $10.00 UP Reward!

Lastly, I picked up a FREE box of Always Infinity Radiant pads that I posted about here.

This gave me a receipt with purchases of P&G products totalling $40.43. Added to my receipts of $11.97 for Tampax for a total of $52.40, I qualified for the $15.00 rebate without spending anything but tax!

Kellogg's Gas Card Reward Program Ends

The popular rebate that Kelloggs had been offering to get back a $10.00 prepaid debit card when you send in UPC's from 10 of their "healthy" cereals has ended prematurely. The program was advertised to last until April 30, 2012 or "while supplies last". It has been so popular that Kelloggs ran out of cards to give out. Click here for more information.  Requests that were postmarked prior to April 2, 2012 will be fulfilled.

Giant - Meat and Spaghetti Sauce Deal

Here is another good deal going on at Giant this week:  Buy 2 Bertolli Pasta Sauce jars (15-24 oz) and save $3.00 instantly off your Fresh Meat purchase.

The cheapest Bertolli pasta sauces are $2.50 each and there was a coupon in the Smart Source insert of 3/4/12 for $1.50 off 2 jars. The last time I went shopping I used the hand scanner and saw that it had given me a coupon for 50 cents off one jar of Bertolli sauce!

Be on the lookout for this No Beer Purchased Required (NBPR) rebate form that I found in Giant this week with the St. Patrick's Day items: Save $5.00 by mail off meat with a minimum meat purchase of $5.01 between 2/1/12 and 3/31/12.

Here is how I combined the two deals:

I bought:

1 - 3 lb. Corned Beef Brisket - $5.28

2 - Bertolli Spagetti Sauce - $5.00

Total: $10.28

Minus:

$1.50 insert coupon

$ .50 scanner coupon
$3.00 instant savings

Total: $5.28

That makes my out of pocket expense 28 cents after rebate!
