CVS Deals October 26-November 1

Free Max Factor at Kmart!

I have been holding on to these B1G1 coupons for awhile just hoping for a good way to use them. Well this is it!! Kmart is offering Max Factor makeup B1G1.

I had 3 coupons from 9/07 Red Plum for B1G1 (buy one get one free) Max Factor Lip products. I also had 2 coupons from this past Sunday (10/19) RP for B1G1 Max Factor face products.

I have never used Max Factor before and good gravy it is expensive!! I thought that the computer had failed to ring the sale when the cashier said my total was 42.00 before coupons. Nope it rang correctly. Before sale and coupons I got 76.90 worth of makeup today! Plus I purchased one jug of Hawaiian Punch (on sale for 2.00/gallon). My total after tax was 4.87. Now THAT's a deal!
