Target Shopping Trip (79% Savings!)

I made a run to Target today and was able to snatch up several of this week's deals. I really wanted to do the Scrubbing Bubbles deal, but I didn't have the right coupons with me. Shame on me!

I was so lucky to have my FAVORITE cashier there today...she makes my shopping experience so much easier & faster. The Benadryl coupons along with the Arm & Hammer coupons BEEP because of the overage and I always hate explaining how to either override or price modify to cashiers. In general, I have not found that experience to be a rewarding one....let's just say no cashier has ever thanked for my helpfulness!

Here's how I did:
