    I’m loving the Revlon beauty tool deal at Target. I used the initial coupons for $2 off any tool and every time I get my free beauty tool, more catalinas print out. I’ve lost count on how many catalinas and tools I’ve gotten. But the catalina is for $5 off 2 tools and a $2 off 1 tool.

    I took advantage of the Giant deal twice, which was nice. My free glasses came in and I love them. I also used my $10 off coupon at Amazon for diapers. And thanks for the Staples sales for tape, batteries and paper. My rewards came in for ink so I put that toward the purchase.

    I keep track of the coupons I use but not the stores sales, since some of the stores make this very challenging to calculate (there’s no total on the receipt).
