Walgreens Trip

Ok, so I just returned from Walgreens and here is what I got:

#1) Buy Excedrin Menstrual Care @ $2.50
Use $2/1 Q
(Pay 50¢ ~ Get $2 Excedrin RR Back!)
Triaminic products $5 ea
Use (1) $1.50/1 Triaminic
(Makes it $4.25 each~ Get $5 RR wyb 2)
(Pay $10.16 ~ Get $7 RR Back!)

#2) Buy Gillette Fusion Razor @$8.99
Use $4/1 Q
(Get $4 RR Back!)
+ Sunday Newspaper @ $1.00
+Tressame Daily Clense Shampoo @$3.34
Use $4/1 Q + $5 Triaminic RR+$2 Excedrin RR
(Pay $3.47 ~ Get $4 RR Back!)

#3) Buy Excedrin Menstrual Care @ $2.50
Use $2/1 Q
(Pay 50¢ ~ Get $2 Excedrin RR Back!)
+ Goody Ouchless Elastics 27 pk @ $2.99
(~Get $2.00 RR Back!)
+3 Sunday Newspapers @ $3.00
Use $2/1 Q + $4 RR Gillette
(pay $ 3.00 ~Get $2.00 RR Back +2 RR Goodys!)

#4) Buy Tressame Deep Cleaning Conditioner @ $3.34
+1 Newspaper @1.00
Use the $2RR+$2RR
(Pay $.65)

Total Spent-$17.28
Total Saved-$46.36

I could have done better but I was missing a few coupons. If you have two Triaminic coupons you could have saved an additional $1.50 on transaction #1. I also needed the shampoo and conditioner so that cost extra money. Overall I was pretty happy. If I would have went in and only bought the shampoo, conditioner, and the 5 newspapers I would have spent $12.30. So for an extra $4.98 I got 2 bottles of Excedrin, 2 bottles of Triaminic, 1 pack of ponytail holders, and a Fusion power razor. Not bad. Also as a side note the Sunday paper is only $1.00 at Walgreens as opposed to the $1.50 it costs at the gas station or out of the machine. So since I bought 5 it saved me $2.50.

  1. Oh yeah and I encountered 0 beeps from the register. Those of you who use register rewards know what I am talking about.

  2. You can make those razors last forever if you "sharpen" them on denim before or after you use them.

  3. I went to walgreens as well.. they were out of excedrin... so i did not get that awesome deal.. I was really looking forward to that money maker.. :( But I did buy the pony tails, then got 2.00 register rewards and then bought the 24 pack of aquafina water. I spent 5.31 and saved 7.00... I went to walgreens last week and did awesome, but i do not have my reciept for that..
