BRU/TRU Clearance Alert

BRU trip

Reader Alicja had a great trip to Babies R Us!  She scored a ton of stuff on clearance- everything pictured for $20!

She got:

Bounty Napkins $1.98- used .25 coupon
Tampax Pearl $3.98- used $2 coupon
2 Seventh Generation Fabric Softener $1.98- used (2) $1/1 coupons
Venus Razor $2.98- used $2 off coupon
5 Lubriderm Lotion $1.98 each- used (5) $2 coupons
2 Pantene $1.98- used $3/2 coupon
3 Kiss My Face Shampoo for kids $1.98- used $2/1 coupons
5 Seventh Generation Laundry Detergent $1.98 each- used (5) $1/1 coupons
3 Seventh Generation Dish Soap/ Cleaner/ and Dishwasher Soap $1.98 each- used (3) $1/1 coupon
2 Clean and Clear Acne Control kits $3.98- used (2) $5 coupons
Neutrogena Healthy Skin $5.98

The grand total was $20 and she gets a $5 rebate from Seventh Generation! I found many of these same items for similar prices at both of my stores so if a TRU or BRU is convenient for you, you might check it out! (You can also try calling and asking so you don’t waste a trip!)

Remember clearance does vary considerably from store to store but I suspect many of you might get lucky and find the Seventh Generation.  My Babies R Us store has two locations- a special clearance area and an area in the back near the diapers with cleaning and health and beauty products.

If you scored as well let us know what you found!

    Where did she get the Kiss My Face coupons? My BRU had Oral Pulsar toothbrushes for $1.98, they were originally $10.98. With the $2 coupon on Sunday would be completely free.

    Last week I got some of the 7th Generation on clearance at TRU. I didn’t have my coupons with me of course I forgot but still a steal at 1.98. I live in SC.

    Jennifer you can find the majority of them by going direct to the website of each of the brands.

    Tabetha – I got some of the Pulsars too…but that was on my THIRD tripe to BRU, not the one I took the picture of LOL

    I was actually most excited about the tampons because I can never seem to find a good deal on the good ones – wish they had more.

    The Lubriderm, Kiss My Face, & Clean and Clear coupons I got off the mfr websites. I went to BRU, made a list of the goodies that they had, came home and searched the net for coupons, then went back. I love my husband he even helped!

    I went to my local TRU to buy more of the Seventh Generation dishwashing soap and bleach. I also looked for the Pull Ups (after Charlene posted her shopping trip). I only saw 1 pack of Pull ups on clearance (Jumbo pack) but I decided to ask and I was so excited when the they brought out 3 more packs! I couldn’t find more Pull Ups coupons in my bag, so I asked them if I can put them on hold. The cashier said I can go ahead and purchase them, bring in my coupons later, and they would price adjust it for me!

    I got some Method toilet bowl cleaner for .98 and Method abrasive scrub for .98 as well. (NO Q’s needed, if you have any Method you could come out ahead!) They had Aveeno face lotion down to 5.98 as well, I think that would be good if you had the coupon with that. I got two Lubriderm for free with coupons from an ALL YOU mag. I got 2 Seventh Generation liquid dishwasher deterg, 2 boxes of the little individual dishwasher packs, and two boxes of powder dishwasher detergent, all for .98 after Q’s and 4 baby laundry detergents!!! Also FYI, my store had Olay body wash for 1.98 and some Simply Green all purpose cleaners for 1.48. Mine had the Kiss my face for cheap too, maybe I’ll print some coupons and go back for those!! Thanks for all the tips you guys!

    I got the Seventh Generation fabric softener and 2 dishsoaps for .98 each. That’s all they had left (well, I left 2 more dishsoaps). I also got liquid Children’s Advil for .98. (It doesn’t expire for another year . . .I always check the exp. dates for clearance medications) and some children’s vitamins for .98 (expire in 3 months). It was pretty slim pickin’s at my TRU.

    I too got a great deal on 7th generation products at BRU. It took some hunting around before I found a BRU/TRU that had a good selection but once I did I scored big. I got 6 detergents for FREE (they were 1.98 and there were coupons for $2off detergents hanging on the dish soaps). I also scored dishsoap, all-purpose cleaner, and glass cleaner for .98 after coupons. Plus I’m going to submit my $5 rebate. Oh, last thing, none of these items were marked as 1.98 on the tags but I price checked them and many of the items were on clearance…so be sure to check the price even if you think they are regular price…you may be surprised!
