Ok...Here is a scenario for Walgreens (3/20/11 - 3/26/11)! You should be able to get $62.28 worth of merchandise (sale priced) for $11.30 OOP. That is a savings of 82%.
Go HERE for INTRO TO WALGREENS.....
Reminder: All totals are PRE-TAX. Actual OOP may vary depending on your sales tax rate.
You do not have to do all transactions in one day...keep it simple and start slow to avoid getting overwhelmed. As long as the transactions are done in order, you can spread them out over the week.

Great job!
ReplyDeleteI printed your 2nd scenario off to buy these things for my family and I was so stupid, I failed to make sure the cashier rang up the coupon for the hunts tomato paste past the first transaction, also my store was sold out of the reach toothbrushes, but I was able to get 2 packs of 2 reach toothbrushes for $1.09 each and use my $1 off coupons, I got the last pack of tena and the celadrin was sold out so I was unable to complete transactions 8 & 9.
ReplyDeleteHere is how mine rang out, not as good as your pricing because of my flubs, but i've only been couponing for about 2 weeks, so i'm still learning, lol.
Trans #1 $.37 because I had a $2 RR going in.
Trans #2 $4.99 because I couldn't find the spring beauty guide for that $2 coupon, was found later on, lol
Trans #3 $4.57 I changed from the Always and got the Schick Intuition Refill using a $2q and got a $3 RR from it.
Trans #4 $1.91 found the spring beauty guide
Trans #5 $2.10 I had previously used the $2 rr from the plackers
Trans #6 see Trans #10
Trans #7 $6.20
Trans 8 & 9 were not purchased due to sold out items.
Trans #6 and 10 were combined because they quit giving me the rr for the Almay products and my daughter had her heart set on the makeup since I rarely buy her any. Total was $9.88
My total Walgreens trip was $32.96 which still isn't bad for all that I was able to buy. That total includes my daughters final purchase of some nail polish using my $5 rr she just couldn't stand me bringing it home, lol.
I will be checking in to see what your future scenarios are as I had a ball trying to use this one and adapt it for my family.

I am really interested in all this couponing stuff. My cousin has started and it's really working for her but she really will not give the details on how it works and she lives 4 hours from me!! Would someone be kind enough to tell me how this works? I live in a small community where there is not many stores to choose from. I will send you my email if you are willing to talk with me. Please help!
