Walgreens deal, again

I went to a couple more Walgreens and did the Almay deal I posted about 3 more times! I love making money by buying items, don't you?! Also, I did the following:

Krunchers potato chips are on sale for 3/$4. I used 3 $1/1 from 2/27SS to get 3 for $1.

Purex crystals laundy cleaners are $4.99 with $2RR. Use with the $2/1 from 3/13RP to get this for $1.

Buy 4 Reach toothbrushes, the crystal clean ones, and get a $4RR. They are on sale with the in-ad coupon for $.99. So, free. Also, use with the $1/1 from 10/10 RP to MAKE $4. I have been to 3 Walgreens, however, and can not find 4 in one store:( I will try one more later today.

Walgreens deals

Here are some Walgreens deals:

1. Almay products are on sale from $5.59-12. You get back a $5 RR for buying one. So, even with no coupons, you could get some make-up for cheap. However, I of course had coupons. First, there is a Walgreens Spring beauty book that has a $2 off Almay coupon. I also had a $2/1 from the 3/6SS, which could be stacked with the beauty one. So, I did 3 transactions. I bought mascara for $5.59. I used the 2 coupons, which made it $1.59. I then got back a $5RR. I MADE $3.41 on each order!

2. Tena bladder control pads are $9.99 with a $9.99RR. At my Walgreens, they had some packs that were on clearance for $6.49. I decided to try them and see if I would get a RR still(glad I tried, too, because they worked!). I also had a $1.50/1 from 1/2SS. I paid $5.48 and got back a $10 RR on each of my 3 orders! Again, I MADE $4.52!

3. Snickers egg candy is on sale for 2/$1. I used the $1/2 any Mar's product from 3/20RP to get 2 for free!

So, total for today, I MADE $23.79!

I also went to Jewel. No great deals, except they had some Revlon nail polish on clearance for $.99. I used a $1/1 from 3/6 SS to get one for free.

Some Walgreens and Jewel deals

Walgreens

Right Guard body wash and deodorant is BOGO free. In the 3/13 SS there is a coupon for BOGO free Right Guard. So, buy 2 for free!

Jewel

Deal one:
Propel zero water is on sale for $.49 when you buy 10($.99 if not). There is a $1/2 coupon in the 2/13SS. I only had 4 coupons, so...I bought

9 Propel
1 Kraft cheese slices( also included in the buy 10 get $.50 off each item)
I had 4 $1/2Propels and 1 $.55 Kraft from 2/13SS
My total was $2.04 for it all(which is really the price of one cheese and then I got the water for free, in my head!)

Deal two:
Ice Cream!
There is a spend $12 get $4 deal on certain items listed in the Jewel ad.
I got
1 package Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches-$6.49/$3.99
1 package Hagan Daaz mini ice cream cones-$5.99/$4
I had a $3 off any frozen food purchase(thanks to my sister-in-law!) and $1/1 Skinny Cow from Dominick's frozen food book.
My total was $4.34 and I got back a $4catalina. Almost free ice cream!!(you could do this deal with no coupons and still do okay. Your total would be around $8 and you would get back $4, so $4 for 2 packages)

Also included is the Nestle Lil drumsticks. I think those were the same price as the Hagan Daaz(but we are not such big fans of those here).

Un-happy Dominick's deal

So, I did the fruit snack deal which I posted about previously again. I had 2 $1/2 coupons left and used those with the $1.50o/3 from the catalina coupon machine. So, in 2 transactions, I made $.50. I also learned some new things about Dominick's. First, they only take one catalina of the same dollar amount in each order. Wish I had known about that. I saved my $3 catalinas until the end, and bought some fruits. I went to pay with my 6 catalinas and was told this policy. At least I can use them at Jewel or WalMart, since I rarely go to Dominick's.

I also had an issue with them on a coupon. The Trident Vitality gum is on sale BOGO free. I had a coupon from this week's paper for BOGO free gum. So, I should have got both for free. Not so. After calling over the manager and still getting no where, I decided just not to get the gum. I had to leave to pick up my little one, so it was not worth it.

Dominick's and CVS deal

If you or your family use/like Betty Crocker fruit snacks, Dominick's has a great deal going on now. Buy 3, you get a $1cat, buy 4 and get a $2cat, buy 5 or more, get $3cat. Their fruit snacks are on sale for $.99 when you buy 4(or more). So....

Transaction 2:
I bought 5 Fruit by the Foot for $.99 each. I used 2 $1/2 from the back of the Totino's pizza roll box. My total was $3.35 and I got back a $3 catalina. 5 boxes for $.35.

After checking out, I received a catalina coupon for $1.50/3 boxes. So, I am going to go back today or tomorrow and do it again. This time, however, I will use a $1.50 and a $1 coupon and make $.50 on each deal. Yeah for Dominicks this week!

Not much good at the drug stores this week. CVS has Revlon nail polish at $3.99 with $3ECB. Use the $1/1 coupon from this week to make it free. OR, scan your card at the scanner, get a $3 Revlon coupon, and make $2 like I did!! I also had a raincheck for 3 Airwick AquaMist's(at $5.99) and 1 Finish dishwashing pod($3). My total would have been $21 with $10ECB. I also had 3 $4/1 Airwick and 1 $2.25/1 Finish. So, I MADE $3.25 .
