Walgreens – Pepsi

Went a bit crazzzzzzy with the pepsi @ Walgreens over the last 2 weeks…

We dont know where to put it all…

That’s like a tower of 14 12-packs… plus there are 3 IN the fridge and 5 at work (my boss gave me $20 for drinks)…

Over all I spent $40 of my own money and got $30 in RR…. we rolled them last night using the blink tears, lip gloss, zicam, and joint juice freebies… and I still have $20 in RR left…

Sad thing is I am thinking about getting another 7 cases ($21 with $10RR back…) Tough to Pass on…

Walgreens and Rite Aid 1.31.10

So… I was out of town for tues-fri of last week so I had to catch up on my shopping Sunday…

Rite Aid had my favorite laundry detergent – GAIN’s Apple Mango Tango – on sale for $4.99 down from $8.99… So I used one of my 3 $20 Gift of Savings certificates to stock up…. heck yes!

Might get more… i can’t decide 😦

Anyways… Everything in the picture was bought for $17.77 out of pocket… including tax!! I added all the savings, and without factoring in sale prices the total value of the mechandise was $120.67

So I paid 14.7% of the retail value… AND will be getting back $9.99 in RA Rebates… woot! That’s like paying 6.5% of retail… or just paying the TAX…

The door in the background is closed… Andrew was sleeping! What a suprise to wake up to candy!! We went out for more later last night… bought an additional:

2 joint juices
2 blink tears
5 lip glosses
2 newspapers
12 toblerones
2 reeses

And paid: $6.35 + lost $10 in RR
For: $126.51 in merchandise… or 5.02%

X-mas Wreath

 

After seeing this post about a X-mas wreath made from ornaments I decided I had to make my own….

What it took:

1 glue gun @ $2.99 – Michaels
3 glue sticks @ $2.99 -40% – Michaels
1 Red Ribbon @ $2.99 – Michaels
3 packs of 18 red balls each @ $12 – Walmart
3 packs of 16 red&gold balls @ $16 – Walgreens (did not pay retail for these)
1 Wire hanger @ $2.00 for 10 – Walmart
1 Wreath Holder @ $1.00 – Dollar Tree (REALLY sturdy!!)
————————————-
Probably ~$40.00

 

 

 

Not the best deal since you can buy this wreath from Pier 1 for $60

 

 

But I had a TON of fun making it… my baby thinks I’m super creative… and I miss crafting some days… these projects help!

Gold Star Ornaments @ Pier 1 for $1 each

So it is kind of difficult to tell, but the gold star on the upper right part of this image is the ornament i picked up at pier 1 wednesday(12.2.09).

I bought 8 for $1.00 each = $8.00+tax
I am super excited to see them on my tree… which I should be buying tomorrow if everything goes smoothly with Andrew’s work tomorrow…

Wonder what I will be buying tonight…. 🙂

Conair Clipper @ Rite Aid

Bought the Conair Clipper for Andrew yesterday…

Had his hair cut on Sunday, for like $18, and we had been thinking about just buying our own clipper already!

Pretty Awesome deal:

Clipper: $26.99
Tax: $1.89
——————
Total: $28.88
-Minus $5.00 off $25.00 @ rite aid
-Minus $5.00 off manu from coupons.com
—————–
Total: $18.88 paid with GC
PLUS there is a $6.00 rebate on this item – November
PLUS spending $25 qualifies for a $5.00 rebate – Gift of Savings

Like Paying $7.88

Look at all the combs and stuff it comes with!!!
I saw it later last night @ Kmart… for $29.99!

Niiiiiiiice

Rite Aid w/ Gift Cards

Can you believe everything in this picture cost $20+tax?!?

Rite Aid is quite possibly one of the biggest rip-offs if you do not come prepared!

I had two prescriptions filled there on my lunch break for $60 (4 months supply @15 per month – I miss my moms insurance). Rite Aid will give you $50 in GC to refill 2 prescriptions with them… It’s a one time deal supposedly but still, one of the best prescription deals out there!

So here is the break down:

Toothpaste $2.69
5 packs of gum $5.00
Nail polish $8.00
Nivea cream $0.99
St. Ives Scrub $3.89
——————-
Total $20.57
Minus $5 off $20
Minus $5 off nail polish
Minus $2 off gum
Minus $1.5 off St. Ives
Minus $1 off crest
——————————-
$6.07 –> paid with GC
And the toothpaste qualifies for $2.69 rebate from Rite Aid

Like paying: $3.38

Nice!

Note: All the Rite Aid coupons came from watching ads on the rite aid webpage… They could easily be combined with manufacture coupons for even better deals!
