Series: What's FREE Week of 10/18

This week I scored many freebies after coupons, and other freebies after gift card. The pictures above show my Target run and one of many Walgreens deals this week. The first picture is from the Target deal, and total I spent $2.11 OOP (out of pocket). I transferred a prescription to Target, so I got a $10 gift card which I used for my purchases. Some of the items were on clearance, the Fabreeze, Chex Mix and Renu were free after coupons, and it was .90 for each of the Nature Valley bags... great deal!

Walgreens has been hot for deals this past month, and all I paid for the items in the second picture was 55 cents! Because some of the items were moneymakers, meaning that they were freebies after register rewards and I had a coupon on top of that, the overage went to pay for the soups that were only about 30 cents a piece after coupons anyways.

Ragu and Skippy Walgreens Deal

This past month at Walgreens has been filled with amazing deals, insane freebies, and many moneymakers. I found another amazing deal that you just don't want to miss this week!

For those who already coupon, this deal is going to be very good for you...but those who haven't started yet can still make a good deal (and maybe an incentive to start getting the Sunday paper!).

The Deal: Buy 8 participating products and receive $8 in register rewards. I chose to stock up on Ragu pasta sauce and peanut butter, and these were also good prices plus I had coupons!

Both the Ragu and Skippy are 3 for $5. Purchase 8 (any combination) for a total of $13.32 plus tax. If you coupon, you should have $1.25 off 3 Ragu and if you get 6 of them you can use 2 coupons. Many of you may also have skippy coupons, you can use that to sweeten the deal even more!

The Results: 6 jars of Ragu Pasta sauce and 2 jars of Skippy Peanut Butter for a total of $2.11 OOP (out of pocket, after the register reward) meaning these were just over a quarter a piece!

Enjoy stockpiling your pantry for less!

WAGS is HOT this week!

I don't know how many people have noticed, but Walgreen's is HOT this week. There are so many free items, and even more moneymakers than I've seen before, that I have probably visited Walgreens about 10 or more times this week already. Because the register rewards do not "roll" the same way that CVS's ECB's do, you have to make more trips and do more transactions. You also can't use more that one RR per purchase, another reason for the many trips and many transactions. Despite all of this, there are so many great deals it is worth it this week! Everything in this picture was completely free, I made money on it actually, but because of tax, the extra money is zeroed out.

Don't worry there is still time to get your freebies this week. Whether you already coupon, just started, or don't use them at all, you can get this deals!

What's FREE?

• Chapstick Fresh Effects: Cost $2.99 with a $2.99 register reward print out
• Robitussin To Go: Cost $2.49 with a $2.49 register reward, there is a $1 off coupon from last week's paper for a money maker if you have coupons
• Herbal Essence Products: Cost $2.99 with a $2 register reward. If you coupon you can use a $1/off 1 coupon to make it free, otherwise it is .99 for you!
• Halls Refresh: Cost $1, with a $1 RR print out. If you coupon you can use the .75/1 coupon for a money maker
• Vaseline Sheer Infusion Lotion: Cost $6.99, get $6.99 RR- there is a $1.50 printable, see http://hip2save.blogspot.com/2009/09/walgreens-deals-927-103.html for the link
• Dentek Floss: Cost $2, get $2 RR
• Oral B Advantage toothbrush: Cost $3, get $3 RR
  

Go and get your deals! Let me know how you did, and if you are new to the Wags game, tell me how I can help! I suggest picking one item, purchasing it, and then using the RR to purchase the next item.

Get your Coupons for FREE!

How did I maximize my trip to Walgreens today in order to get another Sunday paper with coupons for free?

Our local paper was having a delivery deal this past month, so I now get my paper delivered each week for just over a dollar, well under the selling price in our area. his allows me to check out the coupons and decide if I want to purchase another paper that week. Before going to Walgreens today, I checked the weekly ad to see what money makers I could find to help me purchase an extra paper for free.

This week at Walgreens there are several money makers in addition to free products. Walgreens uses a register reward program (RR) making many items free or nearly free after reward. If you roll them each week you can spend very little out of pocket (OOP).

The picture above shows all the products I got for free, including the newspaper because I was going to make $1.50 extra on the products, that allowed me to cover the cost of the paper. I walked in with $5 in RR's, and walked out spending $1.55 OOP and $6.50 is RR's. Translation? All of the above products + newspaper entirely FREE.

CVS and WAGS freebies/moneymakers!

This week there are several freebies and moneymakers at CVS and Walgreens. I got a few of them and will be going back for more!

CVS:

*Softsoap Body Scub 4.99, recieve 4.99 ECB. Use -.75/1 coupon for a moneymaker
*Colgate toothbrush or toothpaste 3.49, receive 3.49 ECB, usee -.75/1 coupon for moneymaker

Walgreens:

*Scrunci Hair rubberbands are $2.00 and receive a $2 RR to use on next purchase
*Colgate toothbrush (not pictured), $3.49, receive 3.50 RR to use on next purchase, use a -.75/1 coupon for a moneymaker!

WAGS Colgate Money Maker

At Walgreen's this week, Colgate was $3.49 and get a Register Reward for $3.49. I used a -.75 off coupon, so I ended up making money on this deal. Free toothpaste, plus a little extra, can't beat it! I can't believe I used to actually PAY for toothpaste!

Quick, Easy Deal

On my way to pick up my puppy, Molly this morning I stopped at Walgreens. Here's my deal:

-2 newspapers @ 93cents each

-1 Reynolds Wrap foil @ $1.39, on sale for 89cents with WAGS coupon

Used:

Reynolds MF coupon for $1 off

WAGS foil coupon

Total OOP: $1.96

I love a good deal!

Wags Freebies!

This month at Walgreens there are several freebies, even some money makers! You can not only get these items for free, but with getting an extra 10% bonus when you put your rebate on a giftcard, it makes for great deals!

*Walgreens Multi Purpose No Rub Solution rebate $1.99

*Garnier Fructis Wonder Waves shampoo/conditioner or stylers...rebate up to $4.99.

I am going to to for the Revlon makeup later once they are restocked. Go get yours!

Quick WAGS Run

During my lunch today I ran over to Walgreens and got a few things for nothing! I love a great deal on stuff I need.

2 Puffs boxes @ $0.89
3 Wrigley gum packs @ $2.78
1 Carefree pantyliners pack @ $1.39

WAGS Coupons: $1.40
WAGS Savings: $1.89
MF Coupons: $2.49

Total Savings $5.78

OOP: $2.58

Orajel Money Maker

At Walgreens this month, Orajel is a free after rebate. Now normally I buy most of the free after rebate items since I just pay with my giftcard, but I usually don't mind the ones I wont use. This is something I wouldn't use, so I had passed it up. HOWEVER.....in the paper there was a coupon for $1 off, and a mail in rebate. Thus, making it a pretty big money maker for buying a product that will be free anyways!

The Deal:
1 Orajel produt @ $8.49

Used $1 off coupon

OOP: $8.06 (on a giftcard) for now....profit soon!
Wags Rebate will be for $8.49 (.43 money maker)
MIR(Mail in rebate) will probably be just for $7.49 I am guessing since I only bought 1 item and they will see the coupon.

So for buying a product I will pocket between $7.95-8.95. Not bad :)

WAGS Deal Week of 1/11-17

This was a very good week at Walgreens for me. Pictured above you will find FREE equal, FREE tea, $0.50 a piece cough drops, $0.58 makeup (Clearanced for 1.58, used $1 off coupon) and paper towels for about $0.80 each and had to use kleenex packs for fillers.

Walgreens Steal- Go get yours!

I heard about a good deal at Walgreens this week on boxes of turtles with coupons I had. I also had a $2 RR (register reward) from last week's trip that was seriously burning a hole in my pocket, so I decided to go grab the deal and throw these in the Christmas present stash. I mean who doesn't love a box of yummy turtles? The cashier was a younger girl, who completely thought I was crazy with my 6 coupons and 6 items to match...but oh well.

Deal:

2 boxes of DelMet's with Nestle Chocolate Turtles 7oz @ 2/$5
1 blistex tube @2.19
3 holiday pencils @ .39 each

Used:
-.70 blistex wags coupon and -.25 blistex mfc
2 -1.50/delmet's turtles
-.78 wags holiday pencils coupon
-2.00 Wags register reward

OOP: $1.56
Savings: $9.71

Walgreen's Keeps Paying Me...

I am starting to get addicted to that feeling of watching the coupons go in, the total go down, and then walking out the door with bags full of stuff for literally pennies to nothing. It's an amazing feeling! Here is my great deal at Walgreen's tonight.

4 boxes Kraft Mac'n'cheese @1.49/box (for the nights supportiveheels has to feed herself)

2 Glade Scented Gel Plug In's @ 1.99 each

1 Glade scented gel refills @ 1.99

1 Glade 2 in 1 candle @ 1.99

2 Colgate Total Maxfresh toothpaste @ 2.99 each

3 Pantene products (shampoo, condition, hairspray) @ $4 each

Coupons Used:

*Wagreens mac'n'cheese for .69 so -2.58

*Walgreens Colgate coupon -4.00

*2 Colgate manf. coupons .75 each -1.50

*used 2 BOGO Glade plug in coupons (i think this will be based on your cashier!)- so got BOTH free! -3.98

*-1.00 glade candle manf. coupon

*-0.55 glade refills manf. coupon

*Used a $10RR from last week

Total OOP: $5.45, received $2 RR for next purchase and will get $4 back in rebates.... to make this deal a money maker of $0.65. *EDIT* I now realized after filling out the rebates online, that the Pantene qualifies for $5 rebate, so I actually made $5.65 on that deal!

ALL of that stuff in that picture was free and they paid me almost a dollar to take it! WOW..... I am kinda loving Walgreen's right now!

I save $34.28 today! I would have paid to record the cashier's face when she kept watching it drop down from almost $40... she was shocked, and very impressed!

Another Wags Success!

I got all this for $5.48 plus a $10 RR! Profit of almost $5.

This week was a bit crazy, and I lost my motivation for the deals. I knew they were out there and knew they were good, but a busy schedule, tiredness, and lack of motivation kept me from pursuing. I am left with $6 ECB's from my last CVS transaction on Monday night and am happy with that to start for next week. My last trip to Walgreen's granted me $10 in RR's (Register Rewards-- good towards your next purchase) and with all the good deals and some good coupons, I drug myself there today and refound my motivation! I scored really well!

Transaction #1

3 Progresso Light Soups (used wagreens 3/$4, -1.10 on 3 manf. and a -.50 manf.)
1 Visine (used -2.00 manf. and -1.00 sept. easy saver coupon)
