I was sooo surprised to see they had the Johnson's Naturals included in the sale! The other good deal that I saw in the ad was for the Desitin (same deal as the Johnson's). Neither of my Rite Aid's had them in stock, so I have to go back on Thursday when they're stocking to get some. Can't beat free Desitin! :)

Science Diet dog food is on sale for $5 a bag, which is a great price in itself. They are regularly $9.99 (I think). Anyways, I had 5 $5/1 coupons from the 1/9 SS insert. We walked out of Petsmart with $50 worth of dog food for absolutely FREE! We did paid $2.19 in tax, but that was it. :)

I've found that you can decorate a room for much cheaper while still using quality stuff if you build it slowly by shopping clearance sales. I can't wait to see it all put together! :)

All of the Valentine's Day stuff is currently 50% off (besides some of the candy, which is 30%), but I'm waiting until it gets to 75% at least before I start really buying things. I just didn't want them to run out of the mailboxes and wrapping paper before it gets to 75%. :) Also, I'm really anticipating them marking down some of the value packages that they have clearanced for 15% right now.
