Walgreens Scenario 3/27/11


So...not the greatest week at Walgreens, but you are still able to pick up a few things for your stockpile and have a little Wags Fun!  This week's scenario is for $6.29 OOP and $1 RR left over for $43.28 sale priced merchandise.  That is a savings of 85%!

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.


Here we go.....

***You may try to use additional $1/2 Mars coupons to lower your OOP, but it may 'beep' because it will exceed the amount of the candy.  I will test this and update if it works.

CVS Scenario 3/27/11

Here is the scenario I came up with for the week of 3/27/11 for CVS.  You will pay $2.92 OOP and get $60.44 in merchandise and End with $4.50 in ECB!  That is 95% Savings!

Reminders for CVS...
  • You MUST have a CVS ExtraCare card (free in-store) in order to get the sale prices and Extra Care Bucks (ECB) back. 
  • ECBs print at the end/bottom of your receipt
  • See NOTES section below

NOTES:
  1. If you don't have the $5/1 Physicians Formula Printable from my previous post, there is a $1/1 coupon in the 02-27-11 SS. This will increase your OOP by $8.00 (due to 2 Physicians Formulas in the scenario), so still a FABULOUS deal for around $11 OOP or 80% Savings!
  2. Also, if you get the $6/1 Physicians Formula CVS coupon (printing from the Red Scanner Machine in-store), you will have to add items to the scenario to cover the overage. Not everyone has or will get these coupons (I do not), so I did not include them.

You used WHAT for WHAT??

I thought we could have some FUN!

Now that I am couponing and have a stockpile of items, I have notice that I have been creative with some of the products...using them for things other than what they are intended for.

This week I am posting about Purex Crystals.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE!!!  Did I mention I loved these?  So...now that I am stocked up and LOVE the smell - I started using them everywhere:
  • In the bottom of the diaper pail
  • In the bottom of the garbage can
  • In an old sock in my underwear/sock drawer
  • Want to try them in the car, too!
I would love to hear from all of you!  Share what you have used for what.  We can all learn from each others creativity.  I know of some that have shared with me already...so let's see those comments!

Happy Saving!
