Shopgirl

I have been sick with an awful cold and ear infection all week. This was the first time I had been sick this fall, and I quickly discovered I hadn’t replenished my cold medicine supply. So even though it it probably my least favorite type of shopping, I knew it was time to go shopping for over the counter medicine. I found some good deals at drugstore.com. If you have never shopped at drugstore.com before you can take $5 off $30 or $10 off $50, and you get free shipping on all orders over $25. This first time customer discount is a great way to save while stocking up on your cold medicine for fall and winter. Drugstore.com also does not charge sales tax, so there is another instant savings for you as well.

I may be an expert in a lot of things when it comes to shopping, but I have always been intimidated by the cold medicine aisle. There are so many choices, so how will I know what works? That is also why I like drugstore.com, because I can read user reviews and ratings before I buy. I personally love that I don’t have to go digging through the aisles at my local drug store any more. I can find great prices and research the medicines without driving to the store.

Here are some great values I picked up this week, and remember with the $5-$10 coupon you get an even better value.

First up, I needed something to help prevent colds this year. I have always felt like Airborne has done a good job at keeping me healthy. Airborne was on sale for $4.49 (A $3.00 savings from my local drugstore).

My husband’s favorite cold medicine has always been Dayquil and Nyquil. Drugstore.com’s price is pretty much the same as my local drug store $11.99 for the 2, but the sales tax savings is great, and it helped me get to my minimum order for a discount code or free shipping.

They also had great prices on cold relief supplies I needed like vapor rub and cough drops.

So if like me, you need stock up your cold medicine supply before illness hits this winter, check out drugstore.com and you will save yourself time and money!
