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.....

Don't miss it!!

Shannon at www.thegroceryweekly.blogspot.com wanted to make sure we didn't miss the coupon in the first section of the KC Star today!
Thanks, Shannon! It would've gone into the recycling without another thought if I hadn't seen your post!
