Finding unlikely deals just sitting on the shelves


So, I do a little shopping now and then, I admit it.  Usually I can find a good deal or two.  Sometimes even on items I don't go through that quickly.  Not that I am a huge Ramen noodle fan, but I do eat it on occasion.  So, finding an entire case of it for 10 cents a piece, I was happy.  Nothing huge in the score area, but it will do in a pinch.  Ramen is a staple in the army.  We take it just about anywhere we travel, so I have become accustomed to it.  Not a bad, quick snack for a dime.  Thanks for missing the mark-down Rite-Aid.

The other thing I just ran into was this:


Now, I have been known to grab a tear pad or two in my travels.  About a month ago I came across a tear pad for .50/1 Colgate MaxWhite.  There were only a couple left on the pad and I haven't seen these very often.  While looking through my binder the other day I realized they were about to expire and was a little sad about that, since I hate wasting coupons.  Again, the clearance fairies answered my prayers.  CVS has this on clearance for .82 each.  So, it's not the .20 I paid for the Crest products the other day, but with a shelf life good until next October, I'm good.
