So, here is the deal I got today with some mistakes.
(1) Vaseline Sheer Infusion Lotion $6.99-$1.50 coupon=$5.49 received $7 RR
(1) Oral-B Advantage Toothbrush $3.00 received $3 RR
(1) Chapstick Fresh Effects $2.99 received $3 RR
(1) Gillete Fusion Razor $8.99-$4.00 coupon=$4.99
(1) Gillette Venus Razor $7.99-$2.00 coupon=$5.99 received $4.00 RR
(1) Herbal Essence Shampoo $2.99-$1.00 coupon=$1.99 received $2.00RR
(1) 80ct Bounce $3.99-$1.00 coupon=$2.99
The original total was $39.14. Would you pay almost $40 for this?!? I hope not. I realize Walgreens is expensive if you don't know the deals. So, this how I ended:
$39.14-$5/$25 Walgreens Coupon-$9.50 in manufactured coupons-$5.54 in gift cards=$19.10
That still sounds like a lot, but I received $19 in Registered Rewards (RR) to use on my next trip, so I actually paid $0.10. Not bad but could have been better.
Did make some mistakes. I thought I had a $1.00 coupon for the tooth brush. I had $4 in registered rewards from a previous time, that I couldn't find, which would have meant less out of pocket. And on the Gillette Fusion Razor if I was paying better attention I would have gotten $6RR on it if I would have gotten the MVP. I would have had $14.10 out of pocket and $25 in RR.
This probably sounds as clear as mud. I'll try to think of a better way to present it next time.
