One of the things I like about saving money with coupons is it allows me to splurge in other areas of my life. Save money on groceries, buy a special health and beauty product I’m interested in. That being said, I just found a rebate for one of my favorite hair care splurges, Mira hair oil. It’s a natural oil that you put in your hair to help your hair grow longer, thicker, and healthier. (And yes, it has really worked for me.)
To get your Mira hair oil rebate, go to http://www.growhairoil.com and click on the post that says “Receive a $10 Amazon Gift Card for Purchasing Mira Hair Oil Via GrowHairOil.com!” You can submit for a $10 Amazon.com e-gift card simply for purchasing through their website. Not a bad deal!

Some stores offer a discount if the item you buy scans in at the wrong price. If you notice an error after you’ve made your purchase, take it to the customer service desk. Even if the difference is only a few cents higher, it is worth the effort if the store will give you the product for free or at a large discount.

I always get a little giddy when I see an item ring up incorrectly because I know I’ll be able to get it for free! It’s a fun way to save money when you least expect it. I estimate I’ve received over $50 in free merchandise over the years thanks to scan-right guarantees. One caveat: Some stores won’t honor the scan-right guarantee on clearance items, especially since clearance prices aren’t always updated in the pricing system right away. Even so, it doesn’t hurt to ask if the guarantee applies.
Here are a few stores that offer scan-right guarantees:
- Kroger (my personal favorite)
- Hyvee
- Walmart (only some stores; be sure to ask)
- Food Lion
- Lowe’s Foods
Most stores will have the scan-right guarantee posted by the register if they do have it. Also, regardless of the store, scan-right guarantees are not valid on cigarettes or alcohol.
