Walgreen's Report

 So first the sad news: the Springville store I hit was out of the $.79 Ajax dish liquid. Just another reminder that if you go late in the sale, supplies might be out. The Campbell's soup that I wanted was also out. :( Here is what I did get:

(2) Huggies Diapers
1 Pediacare children's cold medicine
(2) Nature's Bounty Acidophilus
1 Gold Bond Body Wash 12.5oz
1 Got 2 B Hair Product
(3) clearance Christmas Peep
(2) Clearance Christmas bracelets

Total Retail Value: $61.10 (before tax)
Total Paid: $20.46 (before tax)
1/3 of Retail... I'll take it! :)
In case you don't know, at both Walgreen's and Rite Aid, you need to have "filler" items when using your Register Rewards. I like to look on the Clearance endcaps, usually located near the back of the store. Your filler should be something less than .50 each unless there is another item on sale that you need. Just shoot for less than a dollar per filler. You want to maximize your savings. With the Rewards, you need at least one item per Rewards voucher, so that's where the fillers come in. Also, the total amount cannot be less than the dollar amount of the Rewards; another place where fillers come in. :)
This trip involved a total of 6 transactions. Well worth the efforts!

  1. What does that mean, a "filler?" Could you explain that in one of your posts, please? And, good job!, especially on the diapers! $20 for sixty bucks worth of stuff?! Woot Woot!!!
