THE CLEARANCE SECTION(S)!!
Clearance sections of grocery stores are wonderful sources for great deals (especially when using coupons). Superstore, Shoppers Drug Mart and Wal-Mart, always have some great stuff, and quite often they are just doing a product turnover or they just need the room.
Superstore and Wal-Mart have several different clearance sections. There is always one or two in housewares, pharmacy area (occasionally one in the beauty part too), toys, baby stuff, clothes, grocery (produce area usually), meat (perfect if you are stocking the freezer), and my personal favorite; general grocery (laundry/cleaning/etc). Shoppers always has a shelf at the very back of the store that holds their clearance stuff, but ask at your store, Devon actually has 2 areas.
Yesterday armed with some coupons that expire this week, I hit up Wal-Mart and the general grocery clearance aisle. I was able to grab a bunch of stuff we regularily use for a fraction of its retail cost.
- 6 Glade fabric refreshers @ $1.98 ea, used 3 B1G1 coupons. (reg price $5.97)
- 1 Greenworks combo cleaner (largest size) with bonus dishsoap @ $4.00, used Save.ca $1.50 coupon (reg price $5.97)
- 1 Clorox 2 stain fighter @ $5.97 (on sale), used Websaver $2.00 off
- 2 Arm and Hammer whitening toothpaste @ 0.99 ea, used save $1.00 WUB 2 (reg price $2.37 ea)
- 3 Gillete foamy shave cream (mini size) @ 1.27 ea, used save $5.00 WUB 3 Gillete (from June 1 brandsaver) for overage
- 2 Febreeze Ait Effects @ $3.00, used P&G B1G1 free (reg price $3.97 ea)
- 1 Oasis Nutrisource juice @ $2.97, used Go Coupons save $0.75. (**sidenote, this juice was litlerally $1.50 cheaper before coupons at walmart. Weird)
-Also purchased bagels, granola bars, 2 1L juices for the 'Things', a new toothbrush for Thing 1, and a couple cans of tomatoes etc.
Grand total was 29 items for $30.46. Nice! Clearance works, and requires an extra 2 mins each trip to cheack each section!
