Yep, gonna finish this year off big with lots of Walgreens posts--haha!!

This was a necessary trip since I forgot toilet paper yesterday. Of course, I stopped at the Dollar Tree again to see if there were any KC Star left--nope! Oh well!! I had big plans for lots of transactions, but, alas, left the checkbook at home. No biggie--going back tomorrow with my friend Diana to show her the ropes!! YAY!

First transaction:
Febreez 25% off $2.46 [it's cheaper at Dillons this week--$1.49], but it rounded out my deal.
used MQ $1/1 from a mailer
Tide Stain release $3.99
used MQ $1/1 from mailer
Bounce Dryer Bars $3.99
Used $2.50/1 from vocalpoint mailer
OOP = $5.94 and since I spent $10 [$10.44 to be exact] in certain items, received $2 RR

Second Transaction:
Huggies wipes [my filler--a cheap item that you do not have a MQ for] $2.99
- Walgreens Q $1/1 = $1.99
2 olay 2pack bars, BOGO 50% off $2.99/1
- 2 $2/1 MQ from January p&g insert = $.48 [12cents per bar]
Charmin 9count $4.49 sale
- MQ $1/1 from mailer = $3.49
Used the $2 RR because I had a filler [which I chose a more expensive filler because it was a NEED].
And spent $3.96 OOP.

According to the receipts, I saved $18.33. This isn't completely accurate because the stuff is sometimes cheaper elsewhere, BUT I still saved and got GOOD stuff. Lookin forward to ANOTHER trip Thursday!! LOL~

Wahoo for making money at Walgreen's!!!!!
I had this all typed out and then my busy busy 14month old Elizabeth eraased it, so this will just be short and sweet......
FIRST, i went to DollarTree to pick up a couple extra Sunday papers for a $1. Then I snagged the $4/1 sinex product out of the p&g insert.
The best deal would be to have 4 of those coupons and grab 4 of the $5 box of Dayquil Sinex. When you buy $15 of certain sinex/vicks stuff you get $5 RR, or buy $20 and get $10. You would only spend $4 OOP and receive $10 RR, MAKING $6!!!! I didn't foresee the box of dayquil sinex being included, so I didn't buy enough papers, but I got 2 boxes of them, a sinex spray for $6 and a babyvaporub for $4 with $1 MQ and the 3 $4/1 MQs, paying $7 OOP, and still making $3!! YAY!! There are all sorts of combos to make money with this. I plan on getting more papers if I can and even scanning the recycling dumpster for anyone on top of the game and already throwing out this sunday's paper.
I also want to get in on the pantene and herbal essence and aussie deals--none free, but good deals when you go thru it like we do!!
Just me........off to fight some sinus junk.....
