The Weekly Drugstore Makeup Sales (9/30 - 10/6)

Hey lovelies! Sorry this is late, but it's my parents 51st wedding anniversary today (Happy Anniversary, Mom and Dad!) and I've been running around getting things ready for the big celebration tonight. Fifty one years is an amazing accomplishment and, as many of you know, both of my parents had some health issues earlier this year so this celebration means so very much to all of us, in many different ways. Thanks again for your patience and enjoy your Sunday evening, everyone!

PRINTABLE BEAUTY COUPONS
NOTE: If you're going to use any of these coupons this week at your local drugstores, remember that you can combine them with rewards deals for even better savings (coupons are deducted AFTER you have met the rewards threshold, not before). And as of September 1st, Dollar Tree now accepts manufacturer's coupons. Yes, it's true.

  • $2 off any Monistat product when you buy any 1 Monistat product (I know a lot of you use Monistat Anti-Chafing Gel as primer so I thought I'd mention this one)
  • $2.50 off 2 Simple products (NOTE: this becomes a $3.50 off 2 product coupon when you watch a brief video. Look for the little green box with the "+$1.50" on it and click there)

CVS shoppers: Wet n Wild fans: ALL WnW cosmetics are BOGOFREE this week. Yep, you heard me: buy 1 get 1 FREE and there's no limit specified in the ad, so haul away! Also, this week's ad includes photos of the L'Oreal Project Runway Collection, which I'm assuming that means it's probably in most, if not all, locations by now. And there are also two sales to go along with it (spend $10 on any L'Oreal lip or nail cosmetics get $3 Extra Bucks and all L'Oreal face and eye cosmetics are BOGO1/2OFF).  And the famous PF sale is back on again this week: spend $10 on any Physicians Formula Cosmetics get $7 Extra Bucks (and remember: this applies to products that are $9.99, so don't worry if you don't hit $10 exactly). Extra Care members, don't forget that you can DOUBLE your Quarterly Extra Bucks just by clicking here.

Rite Aid shoppers: There are so many crazy deals going on this week at Rite Aid that I can't begin to give you a best-of (EcoTools, Prestige, Sinful Colors, Jesse's Girl, Wet n Wild and more). So please take a moment to scan through everything below because I don't want you to miss anything. Oh! I do want to mention three extra-special deals though: first, a lot of you expressed interest in the new Chameleon nail colors I reviewed here, and this week when you spend $9 on any Chameleon, CQ, Petites or Color Fever polishes (or Parfums de Coeur Imposter body spray), you'll get $4 back in +UP. There's a gorgeous very fall-appropriate duochrome by Color Fever called Rustic Dream that I highly recommend if you need ideas. I know that several of you don't have access to full Jesse's Girl displays at your Rite Aids (certain stores carry a full wall display while others just seem to get small counter displays or nail polish only) so this will be more exciting to some of you than others: this week when you spend $15 on any JG cosmetics or nail color, you'll get $10 back in +UP Rewards (limit 2, which means you can do this twice). If you wanted some of those Jesse's Girl Julie G. nail polishes like the one I swatched here, now is the week for a haul.  Also, the October Video Values coupons, which are now live, include a $10 off coupon for the SensatioNail starter kit. This kit is also on sale this week for $59.99 with $10 back in +UP Rewards, so if you use that Video Values coupon, you'll shave $20 off your final price after rewards.

Walgreens shoppers: Since Walgreens recently rolled out their new Balance Rewards Card (click here for the details), I want to remind you that the weekly sales are now only good if you have a Balance Rewards Card. In other words: no card, no sales. I will mark the sales that include extra Balance Rewards Points in green below. The October Coupon Booklet is now available in-store, and there's a $1 off any L'Oreal Project Runway coupon that you can use in conjunction with the BOGO1/2OFF L'Oreal eye, lip or nail sale going on this week (buy 3 items and you get 500 points, by the way). And remember, if you're looking for the e.l.f. Villainous Villains Collection, don't forget to consult the interactive sightings map here.

  1. Hi G, in your note where is says in parenthesis, "(coupons are deducted AFTER you have met the rewards threshold, not after)." Did you mean "before" instead of "after" in the lower case?

    1. Hi Suzy--thanks for catching that! I just fixed it and I definitely mean "not before" in lower case. :)

    1. When I was at CVS earlier, the Spoiled and Fergie nail polishes were not part of the sale, unfortunately.

      Delete
    2. The Fergie polishes were BOGO free at my CVS (and the display was basically wiped out.)

    ReplyDelete
  12. Dang, I wish the CVS stores here carried WNW. They used to have a few things sometimes but now they don't!

    I don't know how I feel about the new Balance Rewards thing. It's new so I'll give it some time, I guess.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Hi G, I just wanted to say thank you for taking time every single week to do these drugstore sale posts! It's amazing how much money you have saved me lol. I'm writing this to you from the hospital right now because I have been really sick all week, and everytime I see a new blogpost from you it really cheers me up! With that being said I just hope you know you are appreciated and thanks again for saving us all money!

    ReplyDelete

  16. Congratulations to your parents! What a wonderful occasion to be able to celebrate.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Happy Anniversary to your parents, G.! It's amazing and wonderful to share your life with someone for that long in this day and age. Love like that -through thick and thin- is very rare. My hubby and I aren't far behind them, tho; we'll be celebrating our 40th on the 28th of this month!

  18. am I the only one that finds wags new system stupid and yet another way to confuse us from saving? First it was the "hidden sales" and now this....ugh, I'm sick of wags

    ReplyDelete
  19. My Rite Aid apparently isn't having the +UP Rewards on any of the nail polish listed (Sinful Colors, Jesse's Girl, Chameleon, etc). I went there today to get one of the new Sinful magnetics and I didn't get any rewards. Sucks because I wanted to use the UP Reward to get one of the new SH Lustre Shines. I guess this isn't a national deal. :(

    ReplyDelete
  20. 18,616 days together at the least. Beautiful.

    ReplyDelete
  21. My Rite-Aid (near Atlanta) doesn't have the Sinful Colors, Jesse's Girl, or Chameleon/Petites/Color Fever/CQ +UP nail polish deals (and the workers say they haven't heard anything about it, either). I tried locating them in the online version of the weekly ad on riteaid.com, but wasn't able to find it even after checking several other states' ads as well. Do you know where the sales are, so I can show my store manager a copy of the ad?

    ReplyDelete
  22. Here's a Rite Aid coupon good for $2 off Revlon Super Lustrous lipstick (limited to the first 10,000)
    https://www.facebook.com/riteaid/app_229223087093677

    ReplyDelete
  23. My Rite Aid isnt having the deal with the polishes either :( I wonder why not?

    ReplyDelete
  24. Ugh, I live in South Florida and none of the CVS stores anywhere near me carry WnW. SO UPSET! But I have a Harmon Face Values by me and their WnW selection is 20% off right now, and all of their cosmetic prices are already 10% lower than that of other major drugstores.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Agh, I'm in New York City and after checking circulars from every part of the city, I don't think ANY of our CVS locations have the WnW BOGOFREE sale going on >_< I had been planning to make a huge haul, too... oh well, I'll just wait for Rite Aid's 40% off sales!

    ReplyDelete
  26. i also went to one of my local rite aids today (NW Ohio) hoping to take advantage of some of the nail polish deals (petites, CQ, jesse's, etc.) & was surprised to find none of the sales/ rewards in effect here either...nothing in the add, no signs, employees looked at me like i was nuts when i asked, etc. sorry others have had the same experience but at least it makes me feel less nuts! it's the first time i've ever had something listed here not be in effect at one of my local stores so it's a bit perplexing. i SOOOO appreciate (& make good use of...thank you for all your work!) this weekly listing so hope this is a one-time anomoly. still odd though. was this sale in the add some places? (since not online either?)

    ReplyDelete
  27. I'm so disappointed because I went to target's coupon site and they had a coupon that said "$3 off Designer cosmetic item" with a picture of sonia kashuk products next to it. I printed out the coupon assuming I could use it towards a sonia kashuk product, but it turns out it's only for Jemma Kid, NP Set, or Pixi! How misleading! =(
