Clearance combined with coupon plus rebate

It looks like the year is getting off to a good start money saving-wise. First, I went to Bed, Bath & Beyond and found a 3-piece set (tumbler, soap dish, liquid dispenser) for the guest bathroom on the 50% off clearance rack, and I also had a choice between using a 20% off coupon or a $5 off coupon. The 20% off would have yielded $3.10 worth of savings, so I used the $5 coupon instead. Cost before savings: $30.97. Cost after savings: $10.47 for a savings of $20.50.

Gas prices are low everywhere right now, but I still utilized my BJ’s Wholesale Club membership. Regular unleaded would have cost $1.959/gal. @ 11+ gallons/gas. Cost: $19.66. Would have cost $21.90. Saved $2.24.

Bought house slippers at $13.99. Instant rebate of $2 was applied, thereby making the price $11.99.

Today’s total savings: $24.74.
