More Free Pop!


Today I just received 2 coupons in the mail for free 12-packs of Coke. How in the world did I score more free pop? I entered the codes on mycokerewards.com from my other free soda that I got at Safeway earlier and then redeemed my points for the free 12-pack coupons. I will be saving them until there is another BOGO offer and thus doubling my free pop!

Here's How I Did


Rough day at Walgreens yesterday - partly my fault, partly the cashier's issues. All said and done here's how I did:


After rebates = $14.22


Three transactions with my $10/$30 coupons:

6 packs of Huggies = 240 diapers

9 packages of Hersheys = 3 free movie tickets

2 titanium razors

3 Chex mix

1 cold sore treatment (finishing up May's Free Rebate items - anyone need this?)

4 padded mailing envelopes - it saves me a ton of money to have these around the house.


Not bad, since that many diapers costs $40.99 @ Costco, but man was I having issues with coupons and everything ringing up okay. Not the smoothest day, but we're stocked up on diapers!

Free Panty Time!

The time to use your coupon for a free Jockey panty from Macy's is finally here! Head to Macy's between 5/31-6/6 to get a pair.

Chocolate & Movies Anyone?

Life Under Construction has a great idea for the Walgreens coupon today - since today and tomorrow are the only days that the May ESR and June ESR catalogs overlap you can take advantage of coupons/rebates from both. Here's her idea:

Buy 9 bags of Hershey's miniatures (the ones that are specially marked w/ movie points on them)

Use the $1/2 coupon from the June booklet to make these $1.50 each = $13.50 (so you'll still need $16.50 worth of other merchandaise to use your $10/$30 coupon).

Send in for the $5 May ESR rebate.

Send in your points to earn 3 free movie tickets from Hershey's!

So you spend $8.50 for 3 movie tickets and lots of chocolate to bring to the movies!

Get Your Free Salad Dressing (5/30-6/1)


Here's a weird one for you - Wishbone is offering a free bottle of their Bountifuls dressing, but only via rebate with a purchase between 5/30-6/1. I have a coupon (this will cover my stamp and envelope) from an earlier paper, so I will be taking advantage of this slightly random offer. I've found this dressing at Albertsons so I'll be purchasing it today when I go pick up my $1 All that finally came in!

Diapers Deal!


Go to Walgreens tomorrow (5/30), buy 3 packs of Huggies diapers and a filler item that is over $1.53. Ask for 2 receipts. Use your $10 off coupon and then send in for this $5 rebate. Then head over to Caregivers Marketplace and sign up so that you can start sending in your receipts for cash back!

$10 Off a $30 Purchase @ Walgreens!

I guess Walgreens is finally trying to step it up and compete w/ CVS! Now if the RR would ever be good again... So here is the link to the $10/$30 purchase coupon good for tomorrow (5/30) only. Here is what I would suggest using it on:

  • Any of the May or June Free After Rebate Stuff (buy it and have it put on a Walgreens gift card for an extra 10% back - pays for tax- and then use this for all the upcoming deals and pay no $ oop - out of pocket-)
  • Some of the current manuf. rebates:

Ensure - go here and click free sample to print off a coupon for $3 off a 6-pack - then send in for the full rebate here) yes, this is gluten-free!

Buy an All You magazine at Wal-Mart and use the Tums for Kids rebate form and free Adidas deodorant coupon.

Optive eye drops - rebate form here.

Tums QuikPak - read about this free-bate here.

  • Free chex mix and free excedrin (see earlier posts)

Remember that you can submit your Walgreens rebates online and thus, don't need to send in your receipts, but manu. rebates need the original receipt so only do one of these purchases per receipt.
