CVS Hang Tag for Renpure Organics

I noticed a hang tag while browsing CVS. It's in the Hair Care aisle. It's for the Renpure Organics line which sounded enticing to me since I want to start using more organic products. You have to mail in your original receipt & they will reimburse you for up to $6.99. The cost at CVS is $6.99 so you'll only have to pay for tax! If you are already at CVS, you may see if it's available at your store. I'm not sure if it would be in all stores, so don't make a trip out just for this.

Aveeno Ageless Vitality

Aveeno Ageless Vitality has some new products out that seems interesting. I think i would like to try it out, but I've found on the internet that they are around $40, which is too expensive for a Fru-Gal like me. So I've found a few coupons & rebates you can use that would be this Fru-Gal approved.

1) go to www.target.com/coupon to search for the $5 off coupon (it's under the Beauty link). This is a Target coupon.

2) go to www.coupons.com to search for the $5 off coupon (it's under the Personal Care link). This is a Manufacturer's Coupon (MC).

3) Go to the Aveeno site & print out your $20 rebate form. It's valid from 5/17 - 7/15.

4) Go out to Target with both coupons (Target & MC) to purchase your item. Target stacks one Target coupon with one MC coupon, making it $10 off. You'll spend about $30 OOP. Then mail out your rebate form making your total OOP to approximately $10!

You might want to hold out & wait for a sale at Target since the coupons doesn't expire until end of June, making your OOP even less.
