Whoo! SCORE!!! My trip to WAGS (Walgreens)!!
First of all, lets discuss Walgreens. Walgreens offers "Register Rewards". They give you, the customer, a coupon or "reward" to spend on whatever (with somethings limited) in the store. They also allow you to "triple stack". They accept Walgreens coupons (store coupons). Then they allow you to use a Manufacturer coupon WITH the Wags coupon. THEN (if you have them) they allow you to use your RR with that. Now let me warn you about something, you MUST have the same or more numbers of items that you do coupons. Now to make sure your RR prints, make sure that whatever you buy ALWAYS rings up "SALE" on the Register. Also you need to present your coupons in THIS order:
1. Walgreens/Store Coupons
2. Manufacturer
3. Register Rewards
I use Money Saving Mom for her breakdown of the best deals at Walgreens. Right now, Halloween candy is on 70% off clearance so I bought M&M's as a "filler". A GREAT thing about WAGS, is that you can "roll" your RR and coupons over and over. (instead of like CVS where you are limited). So although it says limit 1, you can do more in more than one transaction.
So one of my transactions were:
Gillette Deoderant $4
Gillette Body Wash $4
Herbal Esscences Shampoo $3.50
Herbal Esscences styler $3.50
Blistex 2.49
Fun Size M&M clearance .84
Vicks Dayquil (2) 4.50 each
Total 27.33
I used 1 Buy 1 Gillette deoderant, get 1body wash free coupon (4.00)
Used a coupon for $1.00 off of the deoderant
Cpn BOGO for Herbal Esscences and another for $1.50 off
Used 2 coupons for $1.50 each off of Vicks Dayquil
Paid 2.97 (after tax) OOP
Received $6.50 back in Register Rewards that I used towards my next purchases. See when you start shopping like this, you realize that you will NEVER EVER pay for anything Health and Beauty wise. This is why it is helpful to buy multiple newspapers (I buy 4) for coupons and plan your attack!!
I kept doing things like this over and over. I would reuse my RR's and "roll them over" into the next transaction. This is how I saved $170.68 and spent $19.92 OOP with $5 left in RR!!!!!!!
Good luck and let me know if you have any questions.

I posted a few days ago about my trip to Walgreens and CVS. Doing some research I decided that I needed to go back to Walgreens and then to Target! Here is what I did:
WALGREENS TRIP 12/20/07
3 Nice & Easy color glaze priced $8.99/clearanced $3.59 (as I mentioned in THIS post if you spend $20 in P& G products you get $10 in RR. This is included in the sale and I got credit of $26.97 (full price) instead of $10.77 (sale price))
4 Mom's best oatmeal normally priced $1, sale .69
1 Degree Deoderant (dh needed it and had no coupon!) price $3.99
1 Celestial candy cane tea (wanted it for me) price $3.99
Total $15.76
Minus manf coupons for Nice & Easy $2 off EACH box for a total of $6
Minus $1/1 Mom's best oatmeal I had 4 of these. You can get the coupon HERE. So I made $1.24 on this deal.
My total is now $10.52 with the male cashier giggling and saying "Wow they are paying you to buy this stuff!)
THEN I hand him $10 in RR from THIS shopping trip. With the Cashier saying "MORE coupons??" As he giggled, he said "Your total is .52!! As he was finishing the transaction, he said, "I am NOT going to even tell you what just printed AGAIN!! I said, "Yep I know. You are about to give me $10 MORE back in RR! He laughed and said, "That is UNBELIEVABLE!" The cosmetics lady, said I can believe it and once you become a parent you will believe it.
NOW onto Target! My only regret is that we don't have a Super Target. There I bought 9 pkgs of travel Huggies Wipes and 2 large containers of Huggies Wipes. I do not have anybabies anymore, but I do keep wipes on hand. I also put the travel wipes in my Handbags that I make for my diaper bags. The larger wipes I am putting with my deal at CVS on diapers for baby shower gifts (I have 4 friends having babies)!!
My total would have been $13.51 (w/o tax), but I used:
2 $3/2 coupon from HERE for the 9 travel sizes (*WARNING* The 2 Travel Sizes are .97 and less than the $3 (and my Target would NOT adjust!), so I actually bought 3 instead of 2 to bring the total to $3 so I could use the coupons, but still got them for free. It is just that Target will NOT allow the overage and I had issues, I thought I would save the hassle for you!)
I then used 2 .75 manf coupons on the larger containers, plus a store $3/2 to make the bigger ones .28 for both!!
Hope this helps you! I would love to hear comments or questions from you! Take care!

My Walgreens/CVS trips yesterday!
Well after finding out that Walgreens had a one day coupon for $5 off of $20, I decided to make a list and go. Another thing I realized is that Walgreens is caving to the pressure of CVS's tacktics and are mimicking their incentives to get shoppers in the store. They are now offering Register rewards, which are the same as the CVS bucks but you don't have to register for their shoppers card. Unlike CVS, your totals are NOT accumulative. You need to purchase the minimum in ONE shopping order!
I plotted and planned my trip and here is what I did:
Post cereals are 5/$10. Since I had a $1/2 coupon I bought 6. I got a register reward for $3. So I bought 6 boxes for $6.
I found out about many of my deals and sales through Slick Deals. If you go into the search box and type in CVS or Walgreens, you can pull up the deals listed in Hot Deals section.
There is a Procter and Gamble sale right now if you buy $20 worth you get $10 back in RR. Well there is a selection of LARGE shampoos that are normally $6.99. Some reports are that there are coupons on these products but I didn't see any! If you carefully check with these labels:
Herbal Essence (LARGE size) shampoo and conditioners
Nice Easy Root Touch ups
Nice Easy Color glaze
Pantene (LARGE size) shampoo and conditioners
Nice Easy gray solution
Infusium shampoo and conditioners
Head & Shoulders (LARGE size)
There are MANY of them on clearance. I saw where there were some for $1.79 but they were gone. I picked up 3 large bottles of Infusium shampoo that was marked down from $3.59 from $6.99. IF I would have paid full price it would have been over the $20 and that is what the register read. YOU GET CREDIT FOR THE REGULAR PRICE AND NOT THE SALE PRICE. So I paid about $11 for 3 bottles of shampoo and got $10 back in RR. BTW this deal lasts until 12/29.
Coke products are $4/11. Not a great deal but they are offering $3 off in RR, which is $4/9.
I got $17 back in RR. I also had a coupon with me for $10 off on the Entertainment book. I was questioning whether or not to get it. My dh said it was a good deal and I made it a better deal. It was $25. I used the $10 off to knock it down to $15. I used $14 in RR and paid OOP $1.66!!!! THAT is a good deal and worth it's weight in gold just in the Kroger coupons!!!!!
**WARNING** I had seen on slickdeals that people were taking their RR and putting them on American Express gift cards to use elsewhere. Tried it!! Register BOOTED me out and didn't work! Thought I would save the hassle factor for ya!
BTW, dh was with me during this time. He was laughing as we were leaving Walgreens. I asked him why. He said, I wonder first of all how many shampoo bottles you have, lol. Then he said, I wonder how long it will take these stores to realize that people like you are playing this game and learning how to buy things for nothing! I told him there were MANY others like me, RIGHT Friends, lol!?
Now onto CVS:
They had a Buy $20 worth of Gilette products and get $10 in EB's. WARNING: I tried to use a $1 coupon on a $1.79 container of Gillete shaving foam. It was considered a TRIAL size and didn't give me credit!
Here is how that transaction went down:
Bought 2 Gillette Fusion Razors at 9.99 each
bought 1 can Gillete foam $3.79 (due to the refund she gave me credit for an extra $1 coupon so I got $2 off of the foam)
used $5 off of $15 coupon
used $2 off of $10 coupon
used $9 (actually got credit for $10) manf coupons
Total oop $3 and got $10 eb's back
Bought Shick Quattro mens razor at 7.99 minus $4 manf coupon got $4 back in EB's FREE
Bought Shick disposable razors at 5.99 used $1 off of 1 coupon and got $3 back in EB's paid 1.99
They also had a soda deal (kids and dh loves it and we will go on detox after Christmas, lol) that if you bought 4 cases of Pepsi you got a free 12 pk of Pepsi max (dh's favorite!). We bought 5 cases of pepsi (got one free) and 2 bags of candy (for a reason) and total was $13.24. Used $13 in EB's and paid OOP .24!!!!!!
I still have $10 left in RR from Walgreens and $10 in Eb's with a $5 off of $20 purchase at CVS. Debating on what to use them on......hmmmm!!!!!
My next adventure! BTW if you search on Slick deals under CVS you can get the scans for next weeks sale. Looks pretty good too, although some of it is a 3 day sale! Good luck and be inspired!
