I bought five papers and 2 of the 5 had a Huggies ad with a $2 coupon. The other three had an article/ad for a varicose veins study. It was on the second to the last page, on the right.

Overstock.com

If you've never shopped overstock.com before, I highly recommend it. I have bought a lot of things from them- everything from bedding to books.

I purchased THIS Memory Foam topper a couple of years ago and we LOOOOVE it. It is still a great price, you can't beat 85% off!!

This site has great customer service and super fast shipping. Check it out. :)

Oh, and, If you use Ebates, you can get 4% cashback. Link through EBates HERE.

Black Friday deals. How'd you do?

So how many of you went out and braved the stores today? Where'd you go? What'd ya get?

I made out pretty good. My Mom came up and watched the kids so I could go out shopping. I went to Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Toys-R-Us, Target, Walgreens, Lowes and Rite Aid. (In that order)

Wal-Mart
I hit Wally-world around 9am, and it was after the first herd ran through so I was pleasantly surprised to find the parking lot only about half full. I found all the toy items I was looking for and a few pair of pjs- none of the other clothes I wanted were in stock. Luckily, before I left my house this morning I remembered that I could lower my oop by buying the Adams collars for overage. :) As I was browsing, I had a list and found several things quickly, but couldn't find the two things I wanted for my son. I looked and looked. Finally I spotted one item sitting by its lonesome on the top of a huge stack of dolls (snagged it!) and after asking an employee about the other item and looking around, I found one in a return cart. So I got the last of each item! *whew*
~So here's what I got:
7 Adams collars $.97/ea
-$3/1 Adams product
1 Corelle dinnerware set $18
4 pj sets $3/ea
2 DVDs $2/ea
1 Playskool Choo Choo Train $9
1 Fisher Price wonderball thingee $9
1 Dress-up trunk $19
1 Pyrex 2qt pan $2
1 Pyrex pie pan $2
Total pre-coupon: 99.42
Total oop: $78.42

KMart:
KMart was dead too. Ok, well, it was way busier than KMart EVER is! But still dead. The toy items I was looking for were gone, but I did get the clothes I wanted.

2 pair pants for my daughter 3/$10
1 long-sleeved shirt for my daughter 3/$10
3 Wonderkids clothing items for my son 3/$10
1 pajama set for my son $5.49
1 Christmas dress for my daughter $7.79
4 Long-sleeved t's for me $3.99/ea {Which I hate the fit and am returning}
1 Winter coat for my daughter $24.99
Total oop: $81.28
{-$17.60 for the return}
Grand total (after return): $63.68

Toys-R-Us
Wow. Toys-R-Us was a MADHOUSE and I got there around 11am. I can't imagine what it must have been like at midnight when they opened. I guess that's why some woman at my TRU got TRAMPLED!!! (go HERE for story) I found two items out of five. I wanted to get my mitts on one of the Little Einstein rockets for $9.99 that was normally over $45. Unfortunately that was not meant to be.

1 Doctor kit $5.99
1 Clipo Explorestation $14.99
Total oop: $22.97

Target
I mostly went to see if they had the Little Einsteins item to price match (didn't know if they had it or would pm it, but it couldn't hurt to try). They didn't have it and really didn't have any "have to have it" deals. So I bought paper I needed and was on my way.

1 ream 750-sheets paper $5.59
Total oop: $6.01
-Used $5 gc
Total cash paid: $1.01

Walgreens
After all this money flying out of my wallet (which, my very stingy wallet was VERY un-used to! LOL!!) I had to see some SUPER deals so I went to my beloved Walgreens. :) I had already shopped yesterday for all the BF deals and a bunch of toys. Yesterday I spent about $24 (all tax) which means I saved approximately $240, plus the savings on the sales price.

Today I got
2 Dove deos $3.99 <--Earn $4rr wyb 1
-$1/1 mq (when I bought Dove, it printed another $1/1 mq!)
2 Nivea shave gels #2.49 <-- Earn $2.50rr wyb 1

-$1/1 mqx6
Total oop: $9 (tax basically)
-I have left $21 rr's - been rolling around a bunch and spending them on Christmas gifts, Fluctuated between $91 and $21 over the last week. :)

Lowes
Went for a shelving unit. To store all my grocery overage in my garage. LOL We also needed an air filter for our house.
Here's a tip for you Lowes shoppers. Any time you plan on shopping at Lowes, run by the post office. Pick up a "moving " envelope. You know, it's the envelope you get to change your address. Inside the envelope, there are coupons. There is ALWAYS a 10% off your total purchase coupon for Lowes in there.

1 Shelving unit $44.98
2 Storage bins 2/$5.98
1 House Air Filter $8.87
-10% off total purchase q
Total oop $58.95

Rite Aid
Alright. I've been trying to track down the MP3 players that are $29.99 with a $10scr. These are regularly priced at $50. Unfortunately my regular store HAD 8 to 10 of these a few weeks ago ...until they got shoplifted. The manager was telling me he has been ordering them for weeks and has been unable to get them in. RATS!! This is a SUPER deal!! You pay $29.99, use a $5/25 coupon, and get $10 scr back. Making this $15. !! *sigh*
I also want to mention that I was playing by the rules regarding the razor purchase. Some of the razors were labeled "1 per customer" I shopped RA yesterday and only got one of each type. I did the same at the first store today. (Some weren't labeled, so I got a couple of those). But when I got to the second store, here was a woman shelf-clearing the razors. She bought all the disposables and all the women's intuitions (she didn't see an endcap of sale items, so I was able to get three). I watched her check out and the cashier didn't care that she got them all. So I figured what the heck, I'll take the men's ones that are left. Sinking to her level? Perhaps, but I did need them for my gift baskets!

First store (not my regular store, looking to see if they had the MP3s- they didn't)
2 Schick Intuition razors $1.99/ea
-$2/1 mq
2 Schick Men's Titanium razors $1.99/ea

Holy Black Friday Amazon deals Batman!



Amazon is pulling out all the stops!! Seriously, go and browse to see all the amazing deals.

Just to name a few, there's, Real Simple Magazine subscription for $5 - (there are actually a whole slew of magazines that are $5 right now- Southern Living, People, Cosmo, Popular Science, Smart Money- so if you have gift subscriptions in mind- I'd jump over there today and browse around.)



Or how about a Kitchenaid mixer for under $200 with free shipping? No problem!


Perhaps someone you know has cookware on their Santa wish list. If so, I HIGHLY recommend Calphalon. I am a bit of a Calphalon snob, ever since buying my first piece at Linens-N-Things (where I worked- thank heavens for that 25% discount!) I have not turned back. If you want to give it a try, this set is nearly 60% off!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

I hope you all have a wonderful thanksgiving.

I am partiularly thankful this year to have found such a wonderful group of people in couponing. A lot of you guys have come to my rescue when I've been in search of things- and I am truly grateful for that! I have also made some very good friends since I started this blog, and I am adding that to my thankful list.

Enjoy your day!!

Walgreens Thanksgiving sales

Finally! Sorry for the delay in getting this up. I've been doing some recon to try to figure out if certain q's work for certain deals. :)

I will be at Walgreens at 9am when the doors open to get my deals, then head over to Rite Aid. :) Then I will have the rest of the day to spend with my family and be thankful.

**Please remember the Rules of Walgreens:
1. You can only get one rr for a deal per transaction. If you buy two Nivea shave gels, you will only get one rr.
2. If you use an rr from a deal to pay for another of the exact same deal, you will not get a new rr. (Buying a Nivea shave gel, and using your $2.50rr from your first Nivea purchase will result in you NOT getting a new rr printed)
3. Manufacturer coupons cannot outnumber items. (RR's are considered manufacturer coupons, that's why there are gift bags on these transactions- it's the cheapest fill this week) Walgreens coupons do not count against your coupon total.

Here's the BEST deals (in my humble opinion)

Thursday only:
Snuggie $9.99 <> earn $2rr wyb one

Super deal on wipes at Target

There's a $1/1 Up&Up wipes (excluding trial) Target printable HERE. The price of these varies, but today I found the 48ct Toddler flushable wipes for $.97 (on price cut). These are regularly $1.27, so when the Target q is scanned, the register automatically adjusts it to $.97. No beeps, no drama.

I got ten packs of wipes, three Glade tins and 4 Glade refills for $3.15 and got a $5 gift card back! (Although, looking at the receipt, I *think* the cashier accidentally scanned an extra target $1q. It's impossible to tell- their receipts are so convoluted!)

Other wipes were priced from $1.27, $1.57, etc.

Rite Aid

I took my own advice and ran to Rite Aid to get some of the free items. I also had two GOS certificates form the last time around to use (yay!) so I made some profit.

Here's what I did
Transaction 1
1 Benevia 7.99
1 Colon Cleanse 17.99
1 Wonderful Pistachios 2.50
1 Bottled Water .50
1 Root Beer 1.49

Used:
$5/25
1 $1/1 Wonderful mq
1 $5/1 Benevia ip

paid with $20 GOS certificate

Total oop: $.47
Total scrs earned: $25.98
Total toward Winter GOS: $31.47

(I also shop for my grandparents, so I use their address for rebates as well)
Transaction 2
1 Benevia 7.99
1 Colon Cleanse 17.99
2 Wonderful Pistachios 2.50/ea
1 Angel Soft tp .99

Used:
$5/25
2 $1/1 Wonderful mq
1 $5/1 Benevia ip
1 $.50/1 Angel Soft mq

paid with $20 GOS certificate

Total oop: $.51
Total scrs earned: $25.98
Total toward Winter GOS: $33.01

Rite Aid

Rite Aid is different from Walgreens or CVS in that they use a Mail-In-Rebate system, Called Single Check Rebates, or SCRs- so often, you'll pay oop up front to get started, then you'll start getting the checks. :) Real checks that you can take to the bank. I got one for over $150 this month!

This is the time to get started. They just started their Gift Of Savings program, and it's good through the next month+. Basically, when you spend $100, you get a $20 gift certificate you can use in the store. This money is PRE-coupon, PRE-Rebate! So that means, you can get a bunch of free after rebate stuff, moneymakers even, and it counts!

For example:
From today through Wednesday, do this:

Buy:
1 Benevia $7.99 (weekly deal)
1 Colon Cleanse $17.99 (only good through Wednesday!)
Total: $25.98

Use:
$5/25 from HERE
$5 Benevia ip HERE (must register)

=$15.98 oop

But, you'll receive back $25.98 in rebates for those two items, making $10. AND you'll earn $25.98 toward your Gift of Savings. So "spend" another $74.02 and get back an additional $20 gift certificate.

There are other denominations as well:
Spend $25-50, get a $5 certificate
Spend $51-100, get a $10 certificate
Spend over $100, get a $20 certificate.

It's VERY easy to get the $100, buying moneymakers and freebies like above- so they're giving you an additional $20 to spend in their store.

Beginning Thursday, there are some great deals! Check it out...

Target Scrubbing Bubbles deal updated

So I originally posteed abot this deal HERE. I was originally unable to make it work because of the order I handed over the q's at the BAD Target when I posted, but I wanted to let you all know that when I went to the GOOD Target, it worked great. I bought 12 Scrubbing Bubbles- and they all had the $2/2 peelies! (there were tons and tons left too- so no shelf-clearing ;) )

I did the deal in fours- three transactions, and it worked exactly as I said. The cashier was in AWE! LOL!! Young guy, of course. He asked me all sorts of coupon questions and told me if he ever ran into me at Publix he was going to ask me to shop for him. :)

Then, today I put on my big girl britches and went BACK to the BAD Target to try to do the deal (handing the q's in the correct order this time). This store has the Scrubbing Bubbles cheaper, so it was more of a MM. I had two $1.50/2 Target q's left- good for one more deal. I figured if they gave me a hard time I'd just take my q's and go. They didn't! I found a young guy cashier (love them) and he didn't even question it!

I needed California Baby Callendula Cream and it is $11.99 (*gasp*), but with the gift cards I had- I only had to pay $.70 oop. The rest was bought by SC Johnson.

Oh, and since I still haven't gathered my q's for the SC Johnson rebate, I'll use these, making this even MORE of a mm!

FLip deals

I may be behind the 8-ball here, but I found a few deals using FLips.

If you're using the FLips at Publix:

$1/1 Ore-Ida FLip (good on ANY)
Use on the $1.09 Easy Fries
=$.09/ea!!


If you're actually shopping at Food Lion, there are a few good deals using FLips.

Mrs.Smith pies are bogo @ 5.49. There was a $1/1 in the 9/27 or 11/15 SS and there is a $1/1 FLip, buy one and use one of each, pay $.75 plus tax for a Mrs Smith pie! We love the Dutch Apple, so I'll be stocking up on those!!

Then there's a new $2/$5 Deli/Bakery FLip. If you are in need of these items- it's pretty cheap- here's a scenario for you:
Buy
1 Food Lion Pumpkin or Sweet Potato pie @ $3.99 (regular price/pre-MVP)
{-$1.99 MVP }
1/4 lb Virginia Ham @$1.37 (regular price/pre-MVP)
{-$ .37 MVP}
= $5.36 pre MVP
=$3 after MVP card is scanned

Use
$2/$5 deli/bakery FLip

Grand Total $1.00 + tax

Black Friday drugstore deals

I am so excited about the Black Friday deals at Walgreens and Rite Aid!! I am working on a list of freebies and mm's and I'll post them with some scenarios for you guys, but my computer is in the shop and I'm on the laptop AGAIN, so bear with me!!

:)

I can tell you that I will be shopping at Walgreens on Thanksgiving morning, first thing. I have Snuggies on my Christmas list for my gift bags and they're $7.99 after rr's!

A printable for FRUIT!

Go HERE for a printable $1/1 coupon for Driscoll's berries. These don't expire until April 2010!!

Thanks again Thrifty Mama!

Free admission for children to the GA Aquarium

If you're in the Atlanta area, you may be interested to know that your kids can get in free to the GA Aquarium on Saturday!

These tickets are so expensive (regular $26 for kids), so a day where your kids can get in free to the Georgia Aquarium is quite a deal. This Saturday, November 21st, from 10am to 4pm, children 12 and under can receive FREE Admission to the Georgia Aquarium!

Just bring your child dressed as a little princess or prince for Princess Day and they get in FREE! There will be fun giveaways, activities, parades, arts and crafts, photo opportunities with some of the Disney Princesses and more free fun going on Saturday as well! See more details on this event HERE

Thanks Thrifty Mama!!

A few Kroger deals

Apparently there's a huge meat sale going on at Kroger right now (be sure to print and take your $.50/1 ground beef coupon - details HERE)

But in addition, a few moneymakers:

Go to cellfire and load the new coupons, specifically the $1/2 Purina cat/dog treats and the $4/1 Scotch fur fighter.

Some Kroger stores have the Fur Fighter on sale for $5.99. Use the $4/1 mq from 11/8 RP and the $4 cellfire q comes off at the end, giving you $2.01 overage.

The Purina Natural Sensations cat treats are supposed to be at Kroger stores, if they have those, grab two bags and use your "free" coupons from 9/27 SS and get $1 overage from the cellfire coupon, comes off at the bottom.

Be sure to pick up a few items to absorb the overage.

Good printable q's!

Some good printables currently available...

$1.50/1 Wet Ones HERE

$2/1 Viva Paper Towels 2-pk or larger HERE

Kellogg's printables HERE

$1/1 Ritz Crackers HERE

$1/1 Kellogg's/Keebler item (this is a mq that states Redeem at Save-a-Lot, so if your Publix considers them a competitor, you can use it there) HERE

Scrubbing Bubbles MM at Target

Now this will be a definite YMMV, and finding a good cashier. You will also have to hand over the q's in a specific order or it won't work.

Here's what you need:
4) $.75/1 Scrubbing Bubbles mq 11/1 SS
2) $1.50/2 Scrubbing Bubbles Target q 11/15 SS
1) Free GC wyb 4 Scrubbing Bubbles Target q 11/1 SS (regional)

Buy 4 Scrubbing Bubbles cans, currently on sale for $2.34/ea
= $9.36 +tax

Hand over the $5 gift card coupon FIRST!! This will prompt the register to scan a gc and give it to you.

Then hand over the manuq's. No beeps, no problems.
Then hand over the Target q's. These will beep "item not found", but if you have a good cashier, they'll push it through.

=#3.36+tax and earn $5 gc

I tried this today at the SUCKY store to see what would happen and I made the mistake of handing over the gift card coupon last. All q's went through fine, but when it got to that one and beeped "item not found" there was no way to push it through. I went round and round with the manager and finally he agreed to take the two $1.50 ones off and just do the $5 gc one. But had they scanned that one first, it would have gone through fine.

Good Luck!!!

ETA: There is also a $2/2 peelie for this as well. I had some left from some I bought at Publix a month-ish ago- use two of those instead of 4 $.75/1 mq's and reduce your oop by $1.

Great deal on My Little Pony

If you've got a little girl to buy for at Christmas-time, run over to Toys-R-Us! They have My Little Pony's on sale this week, Buy 2, Get 1 free. They start @ $6.49.

If you go here

you can print a coupon for $5 off a $20 My Little Pony purchase.

Get 6 $6.49 ponies
Pay 4x$6.49 = $25.96 +tax
-$5 coupon
= $21+tax for 6 ponies.

= darn good deal.

You can print two coupons per computer, so if you wanted to get pricier items, or more ponies, you can use more than one coupon

So if you spent $40 on ponies, you could use two coupons and get $10 off, etc. I did this deal the lasst time they were on sale a month-ish ago and may have to go out and do it again if I can get there without my daughter in tow. These make great stocking stuffers.

Swagbucks

With all these great deals at Amazon, and the nudge from Stacey as a reminder - I want to remind everyone to sign up for Swagbucks, if you haven't already!

Instead of paying Google, Yahoo, MSN or dogpile to search for you, get paid for your own searching! I downloaded the toolbar and I earn between 1-5 bucks per day just by typing in my searches into the swagbucks toolbar.

A $5 Amazon gift card is 45 swagbucks, so if you average 5sb per day, you can earn a $5 gift card in a week. That may not seem like a lot, but consider that right now, you're not earning a single penny for your searching. :)

Those bucks will add up and then you can make these great deals really super since you will have free money to put toward them!

There are lots of other items to choose from as well including $5 in paypal money which can be transferred right into your bank account. So yes, truly get PAID CASH for searching.

Check it out!

Search & Win

FINALLY!

I FINALLY found some Glade tins in stock at Target while I was running around looking for Alphabet Pals today.

I don't have the receipts in front of me, but my final was something like...

10 Glade Holiday tins
15 Glade oil Holiday refills
2 Glade Holiday jar candles (this cost more, but I liked the gingerbread scent and I needed another item b/c they were out of holiday refills)
4 Leapfrog Alphabet Pals

Total oop: >$4
With a $5 gift card remaining :) I would have gotten another two $5 gift cards, but unfortunately the last store had 4 tins and no holiday refills. I got the french vanilla refills free wyb the tins, hoping it would generate the gift card, since Glade states this scent is a holiday scent, but it didn't. :( I still got them free, but it wasn't as big of a mm as it could have been.

The deal for the Glade is good through 12/26 supposedly, but I have been unable to find ANY tins in stock. Basically, there are a million coupons out for Glade products, insert q's, blinkies, home mailers, etc.

The best scenario is as follows:

Buy
2 Glade Holiday tins $2.50/ea
-(2) $1.50/1 mq
3 Glade Holiday oil refills $2.50/ea
-(2) buy-one-holder-get-one-refill free mq
-(1) buy-two-refills-get-one-refill free mq
= $2 oop total

Earn $5 gc wyb 3 Glade Holiday products. = $3 profit

A new idea for Publix

For those of you who have, less-than-friendly Publix stores, or get nervous bringing your total close to zero, try this...

Drop in Publix sometime and get a $25 gift card.

Then, the next shopping trip you make, add another $25 gift card to your purchase. Have the cashier ring it first and then your other items.
Let's pretend that after all your items and overage, your total is $.52 (not including the gift card). If you purchase a gift card, your total is actually $25.52, but when you use the FIRST gift card to pay for $25, making your total $.52. Then you have your new $25 gift card for your next purchase, there won't be any nervousness on the part of the cashier, since your total was $25+ and not under a dollar.

You can keep rolling them like this as long as you like.

For those who like to think that us couponers are "getting something for free" "practically stealing" "probably doing something illegal" etc, this makes them think you're spending more than you really are and will help keep you in good graces.

This also helps prevent the need for manager override since the coupon amount won't go into the tax.

A GREAT deal on the best cooking magazine out there!

And I'm not biased at all! ;)

In 1998, I was an Editorial Intern for Cooking Light Magazine, and it sparked my love for cooking. Not only does this magazine have the best food articles and recipes, but also has some pretty great healthy articles as well.

I highly recommend it, especially for a whopping $5!!

Amazon has this great deal through 11/13.

Click on the below link to sign up now!




There are some other great deals available right now as well, so you can use the Amazon link on my page to check them out. :) If you're looking for another great resource for coupons, check out Good Housekeeping- they've started having monthly manufacturer's coupons in the mag, and it's under $5 right now too!! It's listed as $7.97, but you get an instant $3 savings when you add it to your cart- making it $4.97 for a full year!!

So I didn't have the flu. I had Fifth Disease, which is a childhood illness, which one would think I was immune to since my daughter had it four years ago, and I didn't. Guess not. So now, fever, pukies, headache, joint pain, all gone, but now I have a lovely head to toe rash. joy.

At least I feel better!!!

Thanks for all the well wishes. :)

Kroger triples deals 11/04

I went down to Nashville with both kids in tow and used all kinds of bribery (and a few threats) to keep my four-year old from meandering off. (She did this the last time she accompanied me to Publix, and we had to search for her, call her name over the intercom...it was scary). Anyway, she was pretty good, since we were there for 2 hours (not only was it triples, but also senior day, so it was PACKED!!!), she certainly wasn't at a loss for attention from all the little old ladies and grandpas. :)

Anyway, I was thrilled to get all the things I wanted. Nothing was out of stock (yet) and I picked up a few other things as well. I didn't get to Publix so I plan on going back Monday and get some more triples items while I'm down there. :) (the non-mega things)

I had miscalculated tax (I'm not feeling well, so my brain is a little fuzzy) so I went under on three of four orders and had to add random things from the checkout- gum and a magazine). The fourth order I had picked up some batteries which were on the cardboard display marked $2.00. They rang up $5.99. I went ahead and paid for the transaction and took it to CS, and had a fun convo with the guy working. He told me, oh, I don't think those are included. I said, well, if they're not, I'm not sure why they're on the display. That's the only price on the entire display. (In my head I was thinking, I certainly can't GUESS how much they are). Anyway, so he reimbursed me the difference of $3.99+tax. Technically, they're supposed to give it to you free if it rings up wrong, but he seemed to be in a bad mood and I was ready to go, so no biggie.

Moneymakers at Wags

Well. I looked at the ad for this week and didn't see a thing I wanted. It's nice to be wrong sometimes. I went in to my favorite Wags today to look for the Almay and my favorite cashier told me about a Lubriderm deal going on for the entire MONTH!! I don't know about you guys, but Lubriderm is one of the best lotions that we can use in my house because we all have sensitive skin. This is one of the best deals I've seen in ages!

First, go to your pharmacy and ask for the "new diabetes booklet". If they hand you one with a pear on the front, that's not it. It's more recent than that and is yellow/green and has a small booklet stapled outside the large magazine. The small booklet says $60 in savings. All Wags q's!

Buy 3 Lubriderm lotions @ $3.79/ea
=$11.37

Use 3 $2/1 mq from 10/11 RP or printable HERE
Use $1/1 Wagsq from the new Diabetes booklet found at pharmacy (will automatically multiply by three)
=-$9.00

Total oop: $2.37+tax
Earn $8rr
Profit: $5ish

Then, I stumbled across this deal. It will be YMMV, since you're using two Wags q's from different places, but I tried it today and the register will take them, but your cashier may not. As if we need more Theraflu! ;) Always hand your manufacturer's coupons FIRST!

2 Theraflu Sugar-Free 6-packs $5.00 (weekly sale)
=$10.00

Use
$3/2 mq from 10/25 SS
$2/1 Wagsq from Healthy Savings booklet =$4
$2/1 Wagsq from diabetes booklet (specifically for Sugar-free) =$4
=$11.00

Total oop: Profit $1.00, so get something to eat the overage.
Earn $3rr
**Profit: $4

I am LOVING Walgreens lately!!

Overage at Walgreens

There are not a lot of good deals this week at Wags, but here's a moneymaker that is still working in most stores as of today.

If you're in need of something like diapers or toilet paper, this will give you overage to apply right there. And you don't need any coupons other than what is in every store!

Almay make-up is advertised as Buy One Get One 50%, but many products are actually ringing up bogo.
If you buy two Almay One Coat Mascara (4oz size) at $6.99/ea
These ring up $6.99 and $0.00
Have the cashier scan the $4/1 Wags coupon from the November booklet found in store. This will multiply times however many you purchase, in this case, two, taking off $8.
Result -$1.01.
If you buy ten, that's $5 in overage you can put toward a necessity. The grat part is that the Wags coupons don't "count" so this can also be a filler for rolling your rr's.

Deals like this usually are "corrected" by Walgreens system before the week is out, so if you want to do this, I suggest going as soon as possible. I'm headed out now myself to get some.

If you want to test it before you buy, ask the cashier if they can ring up two and subtotal to see what the second one rings up as. (They can't price check it b/c that will show $6.99 for the one, they have to ring up two). Then you'll know for sure before you do the whole transaction.

Good Luck!
