It is day 1 of the 30 day challenge and we have encountered the first obstacle. We have been fighting a cold and three of the four of us have had it so far. Though I had medication on hand when this whole thing started it wasn't enough to completely cover three of us over multiple days. We love the Vicks Humidifier in our home and have found the cough/vapor medication to be really helpful. We ran out of the liquid medication for the humidifier two days ago and last night used the last medicated pad for the small vaporizer. Yikes!! Thankfully I have been clipping coupons for a while now. I pulled them out and found 2 P & G coupons for $1 off 1 Vicks product. I sent them with my husband this morning and he is planning to purchase the medication on his way home from work. This will be our first savings in the 30 days. The best scenario is to plan ahead so that you can stack coupons for the best possible savings and have on hand what is needed with sickness strikes. I have listed an example below under planning ahead.
Planning ahead: $1.00 Dayquil/Nyquil
I read in a coupon forum that 9/12 - 9/18 Walgreens is gong to have Dayquil and Nyquil 2 for $10. They are also offering $5 in register rewards when you buy 2. In the P&G insert last Sunday there were coupons for $1.50 off 1 Dayquil and $1.50 off 1 Nyquil. This comes down to: Buy 2 Pay $7 get $5 register rewards, making them $1 each. Register rewards are a reward offered on certain products at Walgreens. They print at the end of your transaction and can be used on a purchase like cash on another visit.
