Thank you for this!!! I just picked up 9 shave gels (just paid $1.06 total for tax) to donate to a really great cause.

I am loving this shaving cream deal! I was planning a trip to Target Friday so I hope they have some left still! We go through about 1 can a month between the hubby and myself and then I share extras with my family 🙂
Cassidy says
I just love these posts! I guess I’m kinda snoopy but I love to see what good deals other couponers get! Thanks!
Monica says
Has anyone tried a mens shaving cream to shave their legs with? Wondering if I should pick this up for myself or not.
Gretchen says
Yes, I’ve used it a lot when I don’t have women’s shaving cream and liked it fine. 🙂
Monica says
Great! Going to make that purchase then! =)
Luba says
How big is the package of ground beef? I usually buy ground chicken or turkey because they are more economical but would like to try that ground beef. 🙂
Gretchen says
It’s 1 lb of ground beef.
Luba says
Thank you, Gretchen, and great job on the good deals. 🙂
Jen says
Ok, I have to ask, what do you do with the enormous quantity of shaving gel that you buy? I have laughed about it, but I am so curious! My husband and I go through maybe 1 every two months or so??
Monica says
Same here! It takes me about two months to go through one can! And my husban has an electric shaver so he doesn’t use shaving cream.
Gretchen says
My between me and my husband, we go through about 2 cans a month. However, I DO have a lot of shaving cream in my stockpile (a whole shelf full!) and so I’ve been giving it away when I have friends over. People get so excited when I let them “shop” at my house for free. I also make up gift bags with stuff like shaving cream, shampoo, lotions, etc and give them as wedding gifts because I know my husband and I would have loved to receive stuff like this when we were starting out and had nothing in our cabinets and hardly any money. It’s fun to share my freebies! 🙂
Jen says
That’s great! I love the wedding gift idea!
Meredith says
It’s a great craft for kids too. Kids love messing their hands around it in. I even did shaving cream on the window once. It was actually easy to clean up believe it or not. Look up shaving cream crafts, you’ll be surprised.
Em says
donate it to a school…it is a great desk cleaner. Kids can also write their sight words, spelling words, math problems, etc in it first and then wipe clean!
Anne says
@jen, my husband goes through one every 2 weeks! I stocked up when our Kroger had the buy 5, save $5 and got 11. I went three times so I wouldn’t be a shelf clearer, but free is a lot better than the $2.50 I used to pay 🙂
Angel says
Great deals!

Our Laura’s ground beef is almost $7 a pound. I just can’t bring myself to spend that much on meat. This area is high on meat (Chicken goes on sale for $3 a lb here!) and high on dairy (a gallon of milk is well over $4). My daughter and I eat a lot more meatless meals now than we ever have. Thank goodness she isn’t picky and loves beans and peanut butter!
Gretchen says
Do you have a Target close by? It should be this price at all Target stores.
Anne says
The Target prices on MSM are less expensive than my area’s Target. I think it does depend on region. That shave gel is $2.49 at my store (Seattle area).
Samantha says
She could get an extra $1 back from Ibotta on her ground beef purchase if she has an iPhone or iPad and downloads the app
Jen says
Oh I forgot about the Ibotta app, I think there was a coupon in the Cartwheel app too for ground beef
Jen says
The Cartwheel app coupons can be stacked with the mobile Target coupons and manuf. coupons as well as an FYI.
