1 Robitusson=$2.49

I will repeat transaction #2. I will end this week with $14.50 in RR for next week and I will have spent $1.47 out of pocket and gotten all of the above. I guess I am a little excited about this week!

Now there is another POSSIBLE transaction
3 Thereaflu $4 each= $12
Use (3) $2/1 printable
Use $2 off walgreen's coupon (health booklet)

Pay tax

This is a POSSIBLE transaction because it wasn't listed in our ad, so it might have information in the store, or it just might not be in our region.

Rite Aid

I am so excited about Rite Aid this week it really isn't funny! Even though the out of pocket is quite a bit, $45.66 PLUS tax, you can make $28.03. That is right folks you will get it all back! I am lovin' it! So even though there are products that I don't really need, I do know a few people with dentures and other places that will accept donations, so I will pretty much be getting all of the following. Also I got this weeks match ups from here. I usually look at this blog every week and it always has some good ideas, but this week she has outdone herself, or maybe it was Rite Aid, probably both!

These of deals use the $5/$20 coupon from adperks

Deal #1

Okay it has actually been decided that I will NOT be doing scenario #4 because I am getting a ton of free chapstick, cough drops and robitussin from Walgreens. So I will only be getting $25 in profit, but not bad!

ALSO remember this is your last week to qualify for the FALL SAVINGS! Even if you started this week and you did all 4 scenarios you would have $85.12 towards the fall for savings and you would only need $14.88 (you could grab an Airwicks I motion thing (12.98) which is 50% off and use a $6 off coupon meaning you pay $.49 and then grab something worth $2 and then you would qualify for the $20 gift card and you would have spent around $48 plus tax. Bottom line you spent $48 (plus tax) got $100 worth of product AND got $73.66 back in rebates AND a $20 gift card ($93.66 back total))

Albertsons

All right I will admit that I am waiting until after Sunday just in case there are doubler coupons (though even without them these are some really good deals!)

Potatoes 5 lb bag for $.99

Buy 8

Quaker Chewy Granola bars $1
Buy 2
Use $1/2 (in Utah they aren't allowed to use this coupon I am going to try it, I got mine from redplum.com)
OR use $.75/2 from the newspaper
Bottom line=$.50 a box

Wonka Halloween Candy fun size $2

Bottom line= $.40

So for everything I should be able to pay $35.93 plus tax on the non food items. I will report back after I do the shopping to let you know how it goes!

Also if there are doublers then I would probably use them on the Wonka candy and the all detergent (though I guess it really doesn't matter it will just end up taking $3 off my total)

Rite Aid

I am actually thinking of not going this week, YIKES, I know. If I do go I will just be getting some Kotex pads. If you aren't in need of anything and live closer to a Rite Aid than I do you can check out Dealseekingmom.com to find out how you can make a few bucks this week.

Fred Meyer

So this week at Fred Meyer I bought the following:

Sour Cream and Cottage Cheese $.99

Arm and Hammer Laundry Detergent 2/$7
Used $2.99 in ad coupon
Used $1/2 from armandhammer.com
Final price: $2.49

Breyers Ice Cream 2/$5 (I am addicted!)

Organic baby peeled Carrots 5 for $5

Also Fred Meyer has Buy One Get One Free on some DVDs, I found Little Women, Persuasion, Annie, and Driving Miss. Daisy. They also had Sleepless in Seattle, so if you are looking for Christmas presents or birthday these are a great buy. Each DVD mentioned was $9.99, so I got four DVDs for $19.98.

Walgreens

So this week at Walgreens isn't as exciting as last week, so I am just going to do monthly RR deals from last week. I am also going to be checking out the prices on Dove because they have a buy 8 get $10 RR and I have a TON of dove coupons, so I will post back when I find out the best way to do the Dove deal! If you found a great Walgreens deal let us know!
