HIGHLIGHTS, TIDBITS AND NEWS

POST-CHRISTMAS REMINDER: I probably don't have to remind you of this, but just in case! The day after Christmas you'll be able to find most holiday makeup and fragrance sets for 50% off at all three drugstore chains. This is a great time to pick up some things you may have had your eye on this season, but remember that if you wait another week or two, the price reductions usually increase to 75% off. The danger of waiting is that the things you want may not be in stock by then, but it's always fun come back in a week or two to see what you can snag for 75% off.

CVS shoppers: A few noteworthy deals this week: BOGOFREE all MUA Makeup Academy products, 40% off all Revlon nail polishes (excludes clearance), spend $14 on any Physicians Formula cosmetics get $10 Extra Bucks, and lots of holiday beauty sets 40% off this week (details below). The CVS Beauty Clearance Sale is still going on (the master list is HERE, and be sure to check the comments section of the master list for newer sightings. Thanks so much to those of you who continue to share your sightings with us--I really appreciate it!).

Rite Aid shoppers: 40% off all Maybelline cosmetics this week! Also, now through 12/24, take 25% off your entire in-store purchase with THIS COUPON (when you click that link, you can choose to print or text the coupon to your phone). You CAN use this coupon on sale and clearance items, but please note that you will get the lowest discount between the two (sale/clearance price OR 25% off, NOT both). This is your last week to grab the Video Values coupons for December--click the little red box in the upper right corner that says "show all offers" to view all of the coupons for this month (remember that these are store coupons, which means you can stack them with any manufacturer's coupons you may have, for even more savings). 

Walgreens shoppers: The Walgreens 12 Days of Beauty Event is going on now through 12/24. There is a different in-store deal for each day of this event (CLICK HERE to view the full calender of events). The Walgreens beauty clearance sale is still underway--click here for pics and info (I'm still getting comments and tips from several of you who have been spotting even more things on clearance lately, so be sure to roam through your store for orange clearance tags). The December Coupon Book is still available (free and available in stores) and there are some nice cosmetic coupons this month. Click HERE for a full listing of December's coupons (don't forget that you can stack those coupons with any manufacturer's coupons you may have, for even more savings). 

DRUGSTORE BEAUTY SALES FOR WEEK OF 12/21 - 12/27

The following sale info has been obtained from national circulars. I do my best to recap sales that are happening in ALL regions of the United States, but certain sales vary from region to region. Also, you may live in an area that does not run national sales. If you do not see these sales in your area, check with your local store manager for more details.
