Sharing my deal-finding adventures in the land of no CVS

Friday is a Good Day!!!

Such a great day to go to Wags and Rite Aid!!!!! Here's what I'm excited about:

Walgreens - Today (Friday) is Friends & Family day! That means 15% off of everything! Why am I excited? Because that means that even if you don't have coupons, there are several moneymakers! Any item that is free after RR is a $$$maker today! I picked up the Dove men's bodywash, Joint Juice, 3 Musketeers and Huggies today. Make sure to bring a printout of this coupon or be a papersaver and get it on your cellphone (text HEART to 21525) and checkout at either the cosmetics dept or photo dept (they are the only registers with the employee 15% button).

Check out Common Sense with Money's very detailed post on the deals for today only.

Rite Aid - Did I mention how much I love double-dip rebates? I do! Today is the start to a new Olay rebate and the P&G Rite Aid gift card deal is going on until tomorrow (Saturday). Here's what I bought:

Transaction #1:
1 Venus Embrace razor $7.99
1 Olay bodywash $7.49 (they also have more expensive ones, doesn't matter!)
1 Olay lotion $5.99 (just make sure whichever lotion you choose is lower in price than the bodywash because it is a BOGO50%)
1 Carefree Ultra $1.99 (bonus if this has a $1 peelie on it = $$$maker!)

=$23.47
-$3 (BOGO 50% off of the Olay lotion)
=$20.47

Use these coupons:

-$5/$20 RA VV (Video Value) Q
-$7.49 free Olay bodywash wyb Venus razor Q from 2/7 P&G
-$2 Venus Q (2/7 P&G)
-$1 Olay lotion Q (2/7 P&G or was it the January one?)
-$2 Carefree VVQ

=$2.98 + tax (better if you have the carefree peelie)

Do Transaction #1 again and you'll end up with $36.96 towards your P&G RA giftcard and you'll get the Olay $15 rebate as well! = $14.04 moneymaker!

I would add another $13.04 of P&G products to get to the $15 giftcard vs. the $5 that you are already eligible for.

Here's an easy transaction to add:

1 Pampers $8.99
2 Febreze $5.99 ea. (look for the ones with the bonus magic erasers!)

=$20.97

-$5/$20 RAQ
-$1.50 Pampers MQ (2/7 P&G)
-$5.99 BOGO Febreze MQ (Jan P&G)
-$1 Febreze MQ (2/7 P&G for the one you are not getting free)

=$7.48 +tax, but you'll get $2 SCR for Pampers and $2 SCR for the Febreze and you'll get a $15 giftcard rather than just a $5 one. Plus, I love Febreze and Magic Erasers!
