Walgreens Trip

I did two small Walgreens transactions last week. There were a few things I didn't get; They were either out (Campbell's), I didn't have right coupon (Just for Men), or I didn't need it (Dentek).

Transaction #1
Dove Hairspray $4
Betty Crocker Frosting $1 x2
Walgreens Multi-vitamin 100 ct. $3

-$.50 BC frosting x2
-$1.50 Dove
- $5 RR from previous purchase
=$1.89 and got back $7 in RRs ($3RR vitamins and $4RR Dove)

Transaction #2
Walgreens Multi-vitamin 100 ct. $3
Walgreens foil $.59 (after store coupon) x3
Kotex U Pads $3.49
Reeses Dark PB Cups $.39 (after store coupon) x3
Ducolax $10
Betty Crocker Warm Delight Brownie Bowl $1

-$.55 Reeses x3
-$4 Ducolax
-$.75 BC Warm Delight
-$1 Kotex
-$4 RR from 1st transaction
=$10.09 plus $15.50 in RRs ($10RR Ducolax, $2.50RR Kotex, $3RR Vitamins)

I spent $11.98 out of pocket earned $22.50 in RRs (I have $18.50RRs left). The big "money makers" were the Ducolax ($4) and the Dove hairspray ($1.50).

In case you are wondering why I didn't use the $3RR from the first transaction on the second one, I wanted to get more vitamins and if I would have used that RR then the new one would not print. With a couple exceptions you cannot roll RRs on the same deal.
