Default Crest Advance Whitestrips 14 Pack- a good deal?

Ok, I cannot remember a great price on the Crest Advanced Whitestrips that I have gotten in the past, so can someone help me to see if this is a good deal?

Wags has a 14 pack of Crest Advance Whitestrips shelf price of: $45.99
  • Wags has an in-ad coupon for $6 off
  • Sept P&G has a q for $10 off a 14 pack
  • Wags also has a $5 RR that prints out in addition to all this
Which, finally makes the total $24.99. ** I was able to find packs that had a free tube of Crest Whitening toothpaste in the package also, which makes it a bit of a perk too!**

Good deal or not?

Sounds good for a 14 day supply. But, have you checked ebay for strips? You can usually get a 14 day supply for about $20. If you use them on a regular basis, you might want to check that out .

Went to Kroger today with my mom and we both downloaded the ten dollar P&G e-saver coupon onto our Kroger cards. Then we used the ten dollar off coupon from the P&G sunday paper. From what I have read on here you can use both a e-saver coupon along with a manu. coupon. The strips were $41.75 and after both coupons they were $21.75. Definitely the cheapest deal I have found on them. Hope this helps!

Default Don't want to offend anyone, but it's just my honest opinion....

I find them a complete waste of money since you can get better results by using plain peroxide from the drug store. Take a swig without swallowing it of course and swish it around your mouth for a minute or two. Instead of just getting the front teeth white, you get the entire mouth. Now, you'll definitely want to brush afterwards because the taste is something left to be desired but it's so much cheaper in the long run. I got a sample from WalMart not long ago and right when I put them on my teeth, I recognized the taste and realized that they've just put peroxide on a handy little strip. Bubbles up just like it too.

Hope this helps maybe a little...

Every so often you can find the trial whitestrip packs for 4.99 -6.99 on sale. The $5 q works on those. I got several packs at Wegmans a while back. They were incomfortable, so we never got them again. We also use Peroxide and Baking Soda instead.

They hurt my teeth, the best thing to use to whiten your teeth is Burnf toast and honey. Works really well. Burn toast an scrape off the burnt part into a bowl add honey, mix and apply. Two mins and you are good to go.

I found the 4 packs (2 Days) on clearence at target for around $4.28, and used the $5 off coupon. There was also a $7 off coupon inside. I stocked up and now have 8 boxes.

Someone just sent me an e-mail about all of the amazing things that hydrogen peroxide, baking soda and vinegar does for mere pennies.
