Budget Friendly Beauty - I can save you more than 50%

I don't know about you guys but times are tough financially for me and my little family. Its just my husband and I with our 4 cats and 2 dogs. Things have gotten so tight I'm dying my own hair and going without everything but food and gas. So pinching every penny here.

But I have good news for you! During my financial struggles I have discovered a way to say 50% or more on  cosmetics!!!

I've been shopping all my beauty essentials at Target and recently picked up couponing to save some much needed money.

So these are my must haves I buy at Target:

  • Foundation - Revlon Colorstay
  • Powder - Neutrogena
  • Mascara - Rimmel
Revlon color stay foundation is $9.99 today i only paid $4.99
Neutogena Compact Powder is $11 my last purchase was $7
Rimmel Mascara is 7$ and my last purchase was $3
Revlon Color stay nail polish is $5 and my last purchase was $2

I've gotten a ton of these great deals for basically every brand for more than 50% off!

Here's how to do it:

  1. Newspaper Coupons - if you don't subscribe ask someone you know to save their coupons for you almost everyone just throws them away
  2. Internet Coupons - if you didn't find anything in the paper check the web
  3. Target Coupons- Go to target.com and click their link for their coupons
  4. Check your target add for some great sales
  5. Find Target coupons to stack with your coupons and pair them with a sale for a great deal! Often you can get such a great deal by stacking the coupons that no sale is needed!
Okay and if you're like me when I first started couponing and saying what do I mean by stack the coupon says only one per product.

STACK- means you can use ONE MANUFACTURERS COUPON with ONE STORE COUPON on ONE PRODUCT!

EXAMPLE: 
Today I bought a Revlon Colorstay foundation orginally $9.99
I used a manufacturers coupon from the news paper for $2 + a Target Coupon for $3
FINAL PRICE = $4.99

Because one is a MANUFACTURERS and one is a STORE COUPON, you can use both =)

And I find all kinds of great deals all the time!

***** If you would like me to post these great deals I would be more than happy too but I'm not sure how much traffic this blog gets. Please leave me a comment and let me know if this would be useful to you and I will get right on it =) *****
