Walgreen's again

Total Out-of-Pocket: $4.39
Total RR & Gift Card Paid Out: $23.91 ($20 was RR)
Total RR received: $20 ($30 in my possession)

The best deal at Walgreen's is to buy three Robitussin and use $3 off coupons, per Robitussin. In the end, you will owe $2.97, and you'll be given $10 back.

My transactions today were very similar to yesterdays.
______________________

Transaction ONE:
For this transaction, I wanted to use a$10 RR and receive $10 RR back. I also had a few other things I wanted to buy and not pay any cash for it.

- 3 Robitussin, $3.99 each = 11.97
- Used three $3 off coupons (link to coupon in previous entry)
= $2.97 and would give me $10 RR back.
* I needed to find stuff for $7.03 to take up the rest of the $10 RR that I was using to pay for it.

This is what I got along with it:

- 3 Kleenex, $1.29 each = 3.87
- Used (3) $0.50 MFcoupons
- Used Walgreen's $0.89 off coupons (though she rang it up wrong)
= $1.17 ($0.39 per kleenex)

- Round brush, $4.99
- Huge Hershey Bar, $1 (had to buy it to get total to $10)

I gave them the $10 RR.

They gave me a penny and another $10 RR for buying all that stuff.

Transaction TWO: I used my $10 RR that I had just received to pay for this next deal.
**There are coupon links for these in the previous entry. There are some newspaper coupons as well. I think they were in the 7/20 and 8/10 inserts.

2 Action Scubbing Bubbles Kits - 3.79 each= 7.58 (used two $2.75 coupons)
1 Scrubbing Bubbles Mega Shower Cleaner - 3.79 (used $1 off coupon)
2 Scrubbing Bubbles toilet gel - 3.79 each = 7.58 (used $1 off coupons)
2 Shout Wipes - 2.49 each = 4.98 (used two $0.75 off coupons)
2 Scarecrow figurines - $1 total
= $14.93 (after coupons)

Paid with my $10 RR
Paid $3.91 on my giftcard
Paid $1.43 in cash

Earned $10 RR back

**The cheapest way to do this deal is to buy all cleaning stuff that is $2.49 each. So buy seven of those. But I really wanted some good cleaning stuff, and so I chose some of the more expensive ones. If I didn't have my giftcard, I would have paid $4.93 for all of that - and that's pretty good!

Oh, and I had to buy the scarecrow figurines because they told me I had to have one more item than coupons. I was having a hard time finding something for $0.25, so I found stuff for $0.50 each.

Transaction THREE

- 3 Robitussin, $3.99 each = 11.97
- Used three $3 off coupons (link to coupon in previous entry)
= $2.97

Paid it in cash
Was given $10 RR

Now I have $30 in RR. Tomorrow I will probably go back (I'll be in town already) and see if they still have some left, and I'll probably buy six or nine more. I didn't want to empty any store of them, so I've been taking it a little bit slow:-)

I didn't know if I'd have time to do this deal (the Robitussin specifically) today but I was really hoping I could. Unfortunately we weren't going anywhere near a Walgreens and we try to conserve gasoline. So, it's my top priority for places to go tomorrow.
I hope it works out for me tomorrow! You sure got a lot of stuff for a super deal!

Glad to see we are the same page with the Robi deal. Gotta love $10 RR for only $2.97 OOP, WTG!
