In Praise of Olay Regenerist: Good Value + Coupons

Over the Christmas holidays I started dipping into my Mom’s supply of Olay Regenerist Night Recovery Moisturizing Treatment (the purple jar.) After sampling the “purloined” good, I have to say, this stuff is good. If you want to know about anti-aging products and good skin, go to a senior for advice. The seniors know. My mom is 80 years young and she looks amazing. When I researched Oil of Olay, I found it was top-rated by consumer reports. ShopSmart, published by Consumer Reports, tested creams from the least to the most expensive. They found that Oil of Olay’s Regenerist three part system for $57 ranked the highest. Amazing, huh, the lowest priced cream was the most effective one. In second place was Lancome Paris Renergie, which sells for $176 for the two piece system. That’s quite an amazing price differential! And I cringe to confess, that I have bought an approx. $100.00 tube of StriVectin-SD.

Memories of those high cost cremes linger in my head like the ghost of splurges past. Last night, I saw an ad for Regenerist on TV with a coupon promotion. My eyes widened with interest. The thought of savings after the Christmas wallet purge is always most welcome. The advertisement had a website URL in it for a $5.00 off coupon on the product. My greedy shopping appetite was peaked. There’s nothing like the combination of quality + cost savings. I was excited, until I tried to access the URL. There was nothing on the URL! No coupon no nutt’in. That’s not budget-friendly. So of course, I had to call out the search dogs via Google and start searching. I found this $15.00 gift card coupon instead which is really a rebate, but no matter, I was going to buy some Olay Regenerist anyway. Once I find the savings, I have to pass them on. Click here to utilize this coupon. If anti-aging products are on your list of New Year’s resolutions, this is a good one. You must purchase by Jan. 14th, and submit your receipts by Jan 28th to reap the savings. Meantime, the good folks at P and G fixed the original URL for the coupon for $5.00 off advertised in the commercial. Here is the link to the $5.00 off coupon.

This coupon is good for the US with a link to a coupon good in Canada. Sorry, nothing yet has come across my radar for Europe. This post is all about passing along the savings, in case you also like Olay or want to try it. With both coupons you can save on the purchase of the product and try Olay at a discount. And frankly, it’s not that expensive (most creams are under $30.00 at the drugstore.) Word to the FTC, this is not a paid post or commercial for Olay, just some savings I have found which may be of use to my readers. I mean, if I have to go into another new year, why look another year old? Who needs wrinkles? Not me! I want to age like Dorian Gray.:)
