Walgreens Deals 4/19-4/25

Walgreen's savings system can be a bit tricky. If you are not familiar with how to use their multiple programs in a way that maximizes savings, then check out one of my favorite blogs. They have special sections explaining how the Walgreen's programs work.

I made two trips to Walgreens this week and this is what I bought:

Mitchum Deodorant $2.99, Earn $2 RR, had .75¢ coupons.
1- deodorant $2.99
1- coupon (.75¢)
Earned $2 RR
Total- .24¢ each
(I actually purchased a few of these, but rang them up in separate transactions so that I could get the $2 RR for each deodorant.)

Chapstick Naturals $1.99, Earn $2 RR
1- chapstick $1.99

Dr. Pepper/Sunkist/7Up/A&W/Ginger Ale 3/$11, Earn $5 RR

(I have 2 $2 RR left over from the Mitchum purchases. And while I wouldn't have a problem with doing 5 transactions in one day... I actually didn't this time. I actually bought these on two different days.)

Total OOP $11.03

I used my $18 Rebate Gift Card to pay for Transactions 6 & 7... so I didn't have to pay out of my "cash".

Plus I just added $10 in rebate money to my next rebate gift card.

So... this week took a bit of juggling, but I ended up with a lot of stuff for hardly anything OOP. I've restocked my soda, have some new make-up to try out, and extra deodorant on hand.
