♥ Questions...

I've had some questions on my couponing and have been asked to lay it all out there on how I do it so here it goes:

I'll just do Walgreen's for this week...

In the Wags ad they have Dove Men's Body Wash on sale for $5.99 and then you can get a Register Reward (RR) for 5.99 so it ends up being free! So here's what I'll do...

Buy 1 Dove Men's Body Wash for $5.99
Use 1 Dove Coupon HERE for $1.50
I'll pay Out of Pocket (OOP) $4.49
I'll get back the RR of $5.99
Making a profit of $1.50

Buy 2 Wet Ones 2 for $4.00
Use 2 coupons for HERE for $0.75 each
I'll pay OOP $2.50
I'll get back the RR for $1.00
I'll end up paying $0.75 each for them in the end

Buy 1 Gillette Fusion Razor or Venus for $8.99
Use 1 coupon from the Sunday paper for $4.00
I'll pay OOP $4.99
I'll get back the RR for $4.00
I'll end up paying $0.99 for it in the end

Buy 2 Theraflu Cold Medicine on sale for $5.00 each
Use 2 coupons from HERE for $2.00 off each
I'll pay OOP $6.00
I'll get back the RR for $5.00 (you have to buy 2 to get it)
I'll end up paying $1.00 in the end

Buy 2 Kotex pads, liners or tampons on sale for $3.00 each get a RR for $3.00
Use coupons from HERE or your Sunday paper
I plan on using one from my Sunday paper $1.50 off of 2
Then in the Feb Walgreens Coupon Book found by their ad's in the store there is a coupon for Kotex that I'm hoping will work? for an extra $2.00 (we'll see)
I'll pay OOP $4.50 for both and if the coupon from the booklet works OOP $2.50
I'll get the RR for $3.00 back
I'll end up paying $1.50 for both or if the other coupon works then making $0.50?

My Wags is awesome and they'll let me do separate orders. I try not too if they're busy or I'll let someone go ahead of me but usually they're never busy!

Here's what my transactions will look like today:

Transaction #1:
Buy 2 Lidsay Olives with w/in ad coupon they're $.99
Use coupon for HERE
OOP $0.49 each

Dove Men's care Body Was $5.99
coupon -$1.50
OOP $4.49

Buy 2 Wet Ones $2.00 each
Use coupon's -$1.50
OOP $2.50

Total OOP $7.97
but I have a RR from last week for $7.00 so I'll use that
paying in the end $0.97!
And I'll get $6.99 back from RR (5.99 from Dove Wash and $1.00 from the Wet Ones)

Transaction #2:
Buy 2 Kotex $6.00
Coupon -1.50
& (hopefully) $2.00 coupon
OOP $2.50

Buy 1 Gillette Fusion Razor $8.99
Use $4.00 coupon
OOP $4.99

Buy 2 Theraflu Cold Meds $10.00
use 2 $2.00 coupons -$4.00
OOP $6.00

Buy 3 - 2 liter soda's (I needed a filler) for $4.00
OOP $4.00

Total OOP $17.49
but again I have an $8.00 RR and $2.00 RR from last week plus I'll use the $5.99 RR from the first trans and the $1.00 RR from the first trans...
TOTAL OOP $0.50

Plus I'm going to get back a $2.00 RR from the Soda, $3.00 RR from the Kotex, $4.00 RR from the razor and a $5.00 RR from the Theraflu = $14.00 in RR for next week!

I hope that makes sense???
