Walgreens Thanksgiving Day

Allright. *Cracks Knuckles* Here we go. :D

This is a HUGE ad. I am not going to post all the deals and match-ups, as you can get those from many sites, but I will give you some ideas for transactions. I hope you all have at least one $5/1 rr from either the KidsEEze or the Sinex. If you do, here are some ideas for you.

I also wanted to point out that there is a new MIR for Olay/Venus/Secret/Covergirl/Herbal Essences/Pantene/Clairol that the Olay and Secret items will qualify for. Buy $50 and get $20 back. That's practically free money!

(This is one of those times I hate living in a state with a nearly 10% sales tax. ugh.)

Then you can keep rolling into and between any of the freebies using whatever coupons you have and tossing in things you want to build your rr's and get things you need/want.

I suggest the toys that are all 50% off! :) I am also hoping to get DH the Paper Drums. lol. He has been begging for a drumset (yes, my husband. Not my son. ) so this is as close as he can get.

Free Wisk at Walgreens

Work in free detergent at Wags this week. ;)

Once you buy your Sinex deal (posted about previously), you will spend $2+tax and get back
$5rr.

Then, turn around and buy
1 Wisk detergent $6.99
1 filler

Use the
$2/1 Wisk mq
$5 rr from Sinex

Earn $2 rr

Then do your sinex transaction again, using a small fill and the rr from wisk transaction.

Repeat until coupons are gone. :)

Did I say it as going to be a slow week at Rite Aid? No, not me!

Walgreens Week of 10/31

Wow! Has it really been over two weeks since my last post?

Gosh, sorry! Things have been a little nuts.

So there are a few items at wags this week that might be worth a trip in. I need the cough syrup (too bad I don't have the q's), and the MM on the Sinex is always good ;)

So here's an idea, for those like me starting without any rr's, and without the Zarbee's q...

Trans 1
Buy
2 Sinex 20ct 2/$10
=$10

Use
2 $4/1 Sinex mq 10.10.10 P&G

=$2 oop

Earn $5 RR

Trans 2
Buy
1 Zarbees Cough $5.99
1 filler $.34
=$6.33 +tax

Use
$5 rr from trans 1

=$1.xx +tax

Earn $6 RR

**OR**
If you have the Zarbee's coupon, maybe you could do this:

Trans 2
Buy
1 Zarbee's $5.99
2 Sinex 2/$10 (ROLLING!)
1 filler $.34
=$16.33

Use
$3/1 Zarbees
2x $4/1 Sinex
$5 rr from Trans 1
= -$16

=$.34

earn $6 rr (Zarbees), $5 rr (Sinex... normally this wouldn't work, but it's reported to be rolling)

For those lucky enough to have multiple zarbees q's, rinse and repeat using the Sinex rr, saving the zarbees rr's. (lucky dogs!)

:D

There are also multiple P&G deals. I haven't figured out the BEST way to do one yet, but I'm still looking. I'll get back to you when I find a good one. I suspect it will be using those $5/Olay wyb Secret q's. Awesome q's.
