That’s what this toothbrush display at the Algonquin Meijer seemed to say. Nothing says “a couponer’s been here” like a $1 toothbrush sale when there are .75 coupons available! As you know, Colgate Wave toothbrushes are on sale this week at Meijer for $1. The .75 coupon from the 1/6 SS2 insert drops these to a cheap .25. And, not surprisingly, the display at my Meijer has been cleaned out.
But look to the right of the sale toothbrushes. The Colgate Triple Action toothbrushes are on sale for $1.04. And there were plenty of them on the rack, even though the .75 coupon is good on these too.
Guess people will pay .25 for a toothbrush… and not four pennies more! Ha!
Note: If you do this deal, you may spot .99 Colgate Plus and Extra Clean toothbrushes too. The .75 coupon excludes these, so you cannot use it on those two varieties. But the Triple Action is not excluded!

My guess is that no one blogged about the other toothbrushes so no one thought to look for them.

If the toothbrush is regularly $1.04, why hurry? $1.88 on sale for $1.00 is one of those “hold for the right time to use the coupon” things. And I agree – if it’s not blogged… unless you follow Jill, you don’t necessarily how to do your own deals!

25 cents for a toothbrush? HIGHWAY ROBBERY! I’m holding out for FREE!
Okay, I actually do have so many free toothbrushes in the basement that between my stockpile and the two freebies we get each year at our dental appointments, if I change my toothbrush every 3 months, I won’t run out of free toothbrushes until about 2016! :)

I got a chuckle at the same Algonquin Meijer today. The Purex gel packs on the 2 shelves marked with the sale tags were totally empty, while the alternating shelves with the exact product and the regular price tag were still full!
Same product same sale!! Open your eyes and use your brain folks!
