How Much Free Can You Handle?

This week I will show you how you can get shampoo, conditioner, razors, shave gel, deodorant, tampons, and hair bands for FREE.

I have news for you, I never pay full price for any health and beauty products. I actually never pay more than half price for shampoo, conditioner, styling products, deodorant, razors, toothpaste, or any make-up carried by a drugstore. I usually get all of these products for pennies on the dollar.

This week I will show you how you can get shampoo, conditioner, razors, shave gel, deodorant, tampons, and hair bands for FREE. We will start our FREEBIE Game with Walgreens where you can score a few things for free after register rewards. Register Rewards are coupons that will print out with your receipt and can be used at Walgreens like cash. There are items on sale each week that you can buy and then be reimbursed with register rewards.

An 8-pack of Perfection Tampons for $1.50, get $1.50 in Register Reward; Buy 2 packs of Scunci Hair Elastics for $3.00, Get $3.00 in Register Reward; Buy 2 Irish Spring Men’s Deodorant for $6.00, Use two $1 coupons from the Smart Source Insert in the paper from July 24, Pay $4.00, Get $4 in Register Rewards.

Have you ever scanned your CVS Extra Care Card at their coupon kiosk? You can get FREE shampoo and conditioner at CVS this week when you scan your card. When you scan your card a coupon will print for $2 off your purchase of two haircare products. CVS is having a sale on Alberto VO5 Shampoo and conditioner. You can get a large bottle for only $0.82 cents. You can also look through the travel section for a shampoo and conditioner under $1 or get the VO5. Either way, you will get two bottles totally FREE.

CVS has other great freebies this week too. Just like Walgreens, CVS offers a reward program called Extra Bucks that will print on the bottom of your receipt. These coupons can be used like cash on your next purchase. You buy the items that offer the Extra Care Bucks and are reimbursed with Extra Care Bucks at the end of your transaction. Feel free to make multiple transactions to reduce your out-of-pocket money for your products.

If you are not brand loyal, you have just scored a fabulous collection of health and beauty supplies for FREE or store cash. Use your store cash to build your health and beauty supplies, buy your newspapers, or to get things that do not usually go on sale like milk. I do my best to reduce my out-of-pocket expenses by performing multiple transactions.

The stores are very nice about allowing you to complete multiple transactions so you can use the printed store coupons that have just printed immediately. Do not be embarrassed or ashamed to walk out of the store with your gold mine! Happy Couponing!
