Last week, I told you how I've been fascinated lately with the online deals available on
"everyday essentials". I just love the convenience of shopping online
with the items delivered right to my door. It's one less thing to think
about and so much more convenient.
So I decided again this
week to compare prices at a brick-and-mortar store with what is
available online. Since my store of choice is usually Target, and I get their sale circular delivered to my door, I am once again comparing the price of an item I would normally purchase at Target with the price at Amazon.
Vitafusion Multivites are on sale at Target this week. The sales circular features the 70 ct. size for $5.50 ($.08 per vitamin).
Compare that to the price available right now at Amazon. Get Vitafusion Multi-vite, Gummy Vitamins For Adults, 150-Count
for as low as $8.15 ($.05 per vitamin) when you order using Subscribe and Save.
Amazon
currently has this item priced at $10.19 ($.07 per vitamin). Even without the Subscribe and Save discount, Amazon beats the Target sale price.
Check out
using the Subscribe and Save option to save 5-20%. With a 20% discount, the final price is $8.15, or $.05 per vitamin, shipped to your door.
Here's another example:
In today's sales circular, Target advertises Scott 1000 sheet bath tissue (15-pk.) for $9.99 ($.67 per roll).
Right now at Amazon, you can get Scott 1000 Bath Tissue, 1000 Sheet Rolls (20 Rolls)
for as low as $.52 per roll shipped to your door.
Amazon currently has this item priced at $14.86. Clip the available $1.50 off coupon located below the product description. You must be logged in to view the coupon. This brings the price to $13.36 ($.67 per roll).
Check out
using the Subscribe and Save option to save 5-20%. With a 20% discount, the final price is $10.39, or $.52 per roll shipped to your door.
And just one more example:
Target has Nice 'n Easy on sale this week for $5.99. Get Clairol Nice 'N Easy Hair Color
for as low as $3.75 shipped to your door at Amazon.
Amazon currently has this item priced at $7.19. Clip the available $2.00 off coupon located below the product description. You must be logged in to view the coupon. This brings the price to $5.19.
Check out
using the Subscribe and Save option to save 5-20%. With a 20% discount, the final price is $3.75.
More and more I am finding that I would rather skip the trip and just click.
