The following is a list of household items that I will NEVER buy again! Or, for some of them, I will pay no more than a very small percentage of the retail cost. Of course, these are items my family and I use practically every day. Stick with me, and I will show you how I obtain these items using coupons and sales for FREE or next to FREE. Walgreens is my store of choice when shopping for these deals.
NEVER pay full or even reduced retail prices for the following Brand Name items. They can be obtained FREE by using coupons, store sales, and store incentive plans. Of course, you do have to pay the tax.
- shampoo
- conditioner
- styling products
- toothpaste
- toothbrushes
- mouthwash
- floss
- body wash for him and for her
- soap
- shaving cream
- razors
- air fresheners / deodorizers
- tin foil
- chap stick
- makeup
- toilet paper
- paper towels
- wet wipes for the bathroom
- many cleaning products such as Windex. However, I am on a mission to use only homemade, “green” cleaning products and have stopped purchasing even these free or super-cheap items.
- BBQ sauce/ salad dressings
Are you a couponer/ bargain hunter? Do you have a stockpile of household essentials that you obtained for next to nothing? I’d love to hear from you!
Are you interested to learn how I do this? Stick around! I’ll be posting deal scenarios as I come across them, so you too can start saving major money!
