Drug store items

Where do you shop and who has the best prices?

I think Target and Harmon do well. I'm also looking for some coupons.

I bought the sunday paper and cut out coupons and now I can't find them!Chat Icon

Re: Drug store items

I feel like Target has lower prices than most other drug stores on a more frequent basis.

I would than say Walgreens - but thats only with a coupon and/or if its on sale.

Duane Reade is the biggest rip off of them all...they are ALWAYS $1-$2 more on each item...than again this could be because they are located in the city Chat Icon

Re: Drug store items

oo...walmart.

I have a feeling I'll get sucked in if I go there.

I need 10 items and I'm looking for the best prices.

Anyone have a link online to find coupons or ads that show the stuff on sale?

Re: Drug store items

Check the prices on drugstore.com, they ship REALLY fast and you earn 10% back on everything you buy in the form of drugstore dollars and get to redeem them quarterly.

Re: Drug store items

I get most of my drug store items at Target and Harmon (in the Bed, Bath & Beyond near me).

every now and them I pick up a few things at Walmart (it's close to my job) or CVS.

eta: I think Harmon has the best prices, especially when I use the $5 off B,B&B coupon! but they don't have everything I need there.

Re: Drug store items

I find Walmart and Harmon have the best prices. Target is the next place.

I don't shop for those things online so I can't say about drugstore.com

Re: Drug store items

Don't know if you know but Harmon takes BBB coupons..I also have a couple of extra $5 off ones for there if you'd like..they are pretty comparable to Target...I just love that store, though!!

The CouponMom website has a database of the drugstores and what's on sale where. It also references recent coupons and tells you how much the item will be if you have the coupon.

For example, this week CVS has the Schick Intuition razors on sale for $4.99. There was also a $4 coupon, so the final price is $0.99. This is the kind of info it gives.

Re: Drug store items

i don't buy much at drugstores, but when i do, it's cvs (with extracare coupons) or walmart.

I usually buy deodorant, toothpaste, soap, Tums, tampons, and shampoo in bulk at BJs (they take manufacturers coupons)

I saw that in the paper and wondered what I did with the coupon. I'm in severe cost saving mode right now so I'm a coupon queen.

thanks

Re: Drug store items

I mostly get stuff like that at Target Chat Icon


I have given up on Walmart! Chat Icon LONG LINES that take forever and the store is always disorganized IMO! I just feel like they don't do a good job at managing large crowds and it drives me nuts! (at least this is the situation at the walmart where I usually go to... for whatever reason near my in-laws the walmart is sparkling clean and the total opposite of my local one!)

Re: Drug store items

I ended up at Harmon and CVS.

Did very well on most stuff.

had a 20% coupon for Harmon and got DH a new electric trimmer. Went to CVS with my $4.00 coupon and they had the intuition razor for $8.99 and I got $4.00 in CVS bucks. Got that razor and two cartridges for $.99. Cool!

Oh and they were out of any more so I got a raincheck for next time when I will get that again for $4.00. Love that.

Toothpaste at Harmon was 2 for $4.47 and I had a $.50 coupon.

CVS was smoking crack for the price they wanted for toothpaste. It pays to shop around. I bought the sunday paper again and got some more coupons.

Paper items and drug store items can be soooo expensive. I'm crazy not to take advantage of the coupons and circular sales.

I also heard that Waldbaums had triple coupons.

Re: Drug store items

I think Target has really good prices on drug store stuff. All my face wash/lotion, etc. comes from there.
