Walgreens Coloring Books

Walgreens has super cute coloring books/puzzles for 2 for $1 or 59 cents a piece. The puzzles were a bit junky, but the coloring books were cute. I picked up two Cars ones for $1.07. They are similar to the ones sold in the Target $1 spot. Located in the center aisle endcap.

Couponing Craziness!!

I have been super-couponing lately. And I love it!! Let me share with you some of my deals:

Target

• Huggies diapers: on sale for $8.50 each, minus $1.50 Target coupon, minus $2 manufacturer's coupon = $5 each
• Up&Up baby wash: on sale for $1, minus $.50 Target coup = $.50 final price, PLUS the wash had a $.75 off coupon for Up&Up wipes, which I needed, so it was pretty much FREE plus another $.25 off the wipes
• Johnson's Buddies bars of soap for kids: $.97 each, minus $1 manufacturer's coupon = FREE
• Connect 4 game: marked down to $10.09, minus $4 Hasbro coupon, minus $3 Target coupon = $3.09 final price (a birthday present for Luke!)
• Kid's Crest toothpaste: on sale for $1.49, minus $1 Target coupon, minus $.75 manufacturer's coupon = FREE and then some (they gave me the overage, which isn't a common occurrence)

Walgreens

• Colgate Sensitive toothpaste: on sale for $3.99, minus $1 manufacturer's coup = I paid $2.99 + tax, BUT I got a "Register Reward" for $4 off my next purchase, which I immediately used in my next transaction!
• SpiderMan toothbrush: normally $2.99, on clearance for $.75 - bought it for Luke's Easter basket figuring that the $1 coup I used on the Colgate made it pretty much free
• Reese's Dark PB Cups: on sale for $.49 - I tried to use a $.75 off coup (hoping for overage), but the cashier said I couldn't get it for free, but that he'd give it to me for $.01 (weird) BUT he gave me back my manufacturer's coupon, which I promptly took to WalMart (see below) = $.01 for the candy bar

WalMart

• Reese's Dark PB Cups: $.55, minus aforementioned $.75 coupon (adjusted down to $.55) = FREE
• Hungy, Hungry Hippos travel sized game: $5.24, minus $4 Hasbro coupon = $1.24 (Luke's Easter basket!)
• Colgate Whitening: $1, minus $1 coupon = FREE
• Reach Floss: $.97, less $1 coupon = FREE, plus $.03 overage
• Suave antiperspirant: $.97, less $.50 coupon = $.49

Wowza!!! And I have some more great couponing stories to share!!

Walgreens GREAT buy tonight

Okay, I took the little one and headed to Wags tonight. Couponing at Walgreens makes me a little nervous because, well, I am slightly intimidated by their cashiers as they sometimes give ya grief about the coupons. I took Benn on purpose because I hoped that having the sweetest, cutest little boy in my cart smiling, saying hello and waving to the cashiers would make them nicer to deal with! My evil plan must have worked as tonight was a good night for couponing! I had no problems scoring this terrific, totally legitimate deal: all the items pictured below cost me a total of $1.45 + tax!!!

Oscar Mayer bacon: normally $3.99 each, on sale Buy1Get1Free, used 2 coupons for $1.50 off = $.495 each

OreIda fries: on sale for $.99 each, used a coupon for $1.50 off two = $.24 each

Planters Trail mix: on sale for $1.99 each, used 2 coups for $1.50 off, used another WalGreens coupon for $.50 off each = FREE + $.02 overage

GRAND TOTAL = $1.45 + tax

Walgreen Freebie's

I thought it may be fun to share pictures of coupon findings! Anyone have any they want to share? I love looking at pictures of this stuff.
Here I have Connor checking out my Walgreen freebies.

• 1 Gillette Fusion Razor, on sale for $8.99, used a $4 coupon (9/27 RP), and got a $6RR. $1 profit
• Herbal Essences conditioner, on sale for $2.99, used $1 coupon (9/13 RP or 8/23 RP), got a $2 RR. Free.
• Vaseline Lotion, $6.99, received $7 RR. Free
• Chapstick Effects, $2.99 received a $3 RR. Free
• Halls Refresh, on sale for $1, used 75 cent coupon (9/27 SS) received $1 RR.
• Oral B toothbrush, on sale for $3, used 75 coupon (9/27 PG), received a $3 RR. Profit 75 cents.

Of course there is sales tax on all of that.

I know there are PLENTY of other blogs out there with this exact info, but isn't it fun to see Connor checking out the merchandise? Send me any pictures you have of your finds!

On side notes, on Sunday the Oral-B RR wasn't printing, so the manager gave me a $3 giftcard. Today, the razor $6 RR wasn't printing, so he gave me a gift card for that. Upon closer inspection, I was only suppose to get the $6 RR if I bought the "MVP" razor, so technically I wasn't suppose to get this. Oops.
