Walgreens Money Making Trip

So, I ventured out to Walgreens during lunch today and ended up making money on my trip!

 

1st Transaction…

Zantac 150 $8.99

$5 printable coupon

$9 RR back

 

Halls Refreshers $1.00

.50 coupon from tear pad (but did see .35 cpn in paper)

$1 RR back

 

OOP = $5.26

RR earned = $10.00

$$ “made” = $4.74

 

2nd Transaction

3 x Quilted Northern TP 9 roll $3.99 ea (sale)

3 x $1 man cpn from paper (or you can try the printable one)

 

Chapstick $2.99

$3 RR back

 

Total (after coupons) = $11.96

Used $9 RR from above

OOP = $4.12

RR earned = $3

$$ “spent” = $1.12

 

All in all I don’t think I did too bad.  I spent $9.38 OOP of ended up with $4 RR when I left (since I earned and used the $9 RR in the same trip).  When you add up the OOP and RR left, I spent $5.38 but I ended up with a lot of TP!  I have $4 RR from today and $7 from a previous trip, so I still have $11 RR to spend. 

 

To go along with my six month stock up goal on all non perishables I think I might go back and get some more TP.

 

4 x Quilted Northern TP 9 Roll $3.99 ea = $15.96

2 x $1 printable coupons = ($2.00)

Total = $13.96

Tax 7.75% = $1.24

Total = $15.20

RR = $11.00

OOP = $4.20

 

Next… my list of what I want to stock up on and my “guesstimates” on how much I think I’ll need to last me six months.  I might have to add a few shelves in the garage or at the VERY top of our linen closets to pack all this stuff in the house!
