One Megacoolmama…

Walgreens finds 8-9

This is a deal that I got at my local Walgreens yesterday.  I planned out my trip around things I would use and things that were on sale AND had a coupon (in most instances).  I ended up getting about $45 worth of merchandise for about $4!  Megacool!  You can do it to!  This is how:

First transaction:

• Gillette Fusion Power Razor (on sale for $9.99, $4 off coupon in the July 31 P & G insert, AND $4 Register Reward)
• Crayola 24 ct. crayons (on sale for $1 AND $1 Register Reward)
• (2) Expo 2-pk. black dry erase markers (on sale for $.99 a piece AND used $2 off any 2 packs Expo markers found here)
• (2) Colgate Total Gum Defense 4 oz. toothpastes (used (2) $1.50 off one Colgate Total Gum Defense coupons, on sale for $3.49 a piece, AND $4 Register Reward) (NOTE:  the coupon I used is no longer available to print, but you can still go on the Colgate website and print off a coupon and look in your July 24 SmartSource insert for another $.50 off one Colgate toothpaste- this will still give you the Register Rewards and a good deal on toothpaste!)
• Paid around $10 out of pocket

Second transaction:

• (4) travel-sized Degree women’s deodorants at $.99 a piece AND $1 of 1 Degree deodorant found in the July 31 RedPlum insert, AND $4 Register Reward)
• (2) boxes of Skinny Cow Milk Chocolate Dreamy Clusters (I prefer Dark Chocolate, but my husband will eat these for snacks) with Walgreens August savings booklet coupon (found right at the front of the store) of $1 off 2, AND (2) manufacturer’s coupons for $1 off each box of Skinny Cow candy (one was a peelie from a box of Skinny Cow fudge bars and the other is from the July 31 RedPlum insert)
• Keri lotion on sale for $5.99 AND $5 Register Rewards
• Used $9 of Register Rewards from first transaction
• Paid about $3.50 out of pocket AND had $9 Register Rewards remaining!

All together:  AROUND $4 FOR ABOUT $45 WORTH OF PRODUCTS!  MEGACOOL!

Note:  Register Rewards are what the cash register spits out after your purchase that you can use toward your next purchase in the store.  It’s like FREE money!  Honestly, you can end up getting a lot of things for free if you play your cards right! 

Good luck!
