Couponing adventure - Week #1

I may have overworked my brain cells, but I saved some money!  Best deals of the week:

• Transformers toy for 1.99.  Retail was 6.99 at Walmart less $5.00 coupon found on facebook.  Christmas toy for my nephew...check!
• Carmex jar for 29 cents. Retail at Kroger was 99 cents. Less 35 cent coupon from facebook, doubled. 
• Prevacid 24 ct for FREE. Retail was 18.99 less 4.00 online coupon less mail-in rebate up to 18.00 of the balance. Rebate takes 6-8 weeks, but so what. I have to buy that stuff anyway :)  
• Walgreens - buy one get one free Purex and 2 for $4 Clorox wipes less coupons - all for $8.00.  I liked that trip.
• Total actual savings from coupons, and savings cards this week:  about $39.00
• Total leftover from budget:  $0

In addition to my new couponing tactics, I have reopened my eBay store. Actually not the store; I'm just listing items for sell again, but it's close enough, right?  Let's hope all these items sell quick and for top price! :)
