A new coupon secret, buy the Chicago Tribune. It has 3 xs the coupons as the Herald and Review. Seriously, if you have not gotten it today- go to Walgreens (the only place I know of that carries it in town), and buy one for $2.50. Go crazy- buy 2! Then you can use your pert plus coupons (2-$2.00 coupons) and covergirl (b1 g1) at CVS and immediately get your money back b/c you will get all of your stuff for FREE!

haha...."not pictured"...wonder why the cherry coke couldn't make the photo shoot? I love u.
thats funny wick! i was thinking exactly the same thing. =) so are you the one that bought out all the chicago tribune so when i went to 3 different walgreens there were none!! =( lol nice round, i went to walgreens today and cvs as well. good deals to be had. did u do the back to school rebate with the pert? a great add on~!
Is the Trib cheaper through home delivery? I live in NW IN and the problem I find is that the store papers don't have the coupons in them? Only home delivery ones?
Thanks for sharing your trip! It always helps to see others' scenerios :) I continue to amaze my husband with great deals too :)
