Today’s $5 off $25 haul … and $5 of $30 next week?

My husband and I went to Dollar General to use the $5 off $25 digital coupon combined with other coupons for some retail therapy today.  We ended up just getting one scenario as my some items wer low in stock.

I did get an awesome deal though.  My total was over $27 before all digital coupons and after I added my phone number to the key pad, the total went down to only $7.80 +tax!  Plus, the Mt Dew single beverage is giving me $1.99 back from Ibotta!

These are the rebate shopping apps that I use:

Above is my $5 off $25 haul (not shown are the Sunday paper $3 and the daily paper $1.50).

  • Mt Dew Major Melon $1.99
  • (2) Nivea Lotion Vanilla $3.65 each ($7.15)
  • (2) Colgate Optic White Stain Toothpaste $3 each ($6)
  • Schick Razors $4
  • Oral B soft toothbrush Indicator 2-pack $3

You can glean from that post to put together your own Saturday scenarios.

  • $5 off $25 Saturday digital coupon
  • $3 off Nivea lotion digital
  • $2 off Nivea lotion digital
  • $4 off 2 select Colgate toothpaste digital
  • $3 off select Schick razor digital
  • $2 off manual Oral B toothbrush digital

$7.64 + tax

Final total $5.65 for 9 items!  

When submitting my receipt to Ibotta, I noticed that the coupon on the receipt for next week is $5 off $30 instead of $5 off $25.

The receipt does say, “Sign up and save $5 off $25 this Saturday exclusively with DG Digital Coupons.”  I am wondering if this is higher amount is due to the upcoming clearance event, or if this is going to be the new normal for receipt coupons.

Anyway, we will just have to wait and see.

Happy shopping!
