Walgreens--Buy more to pay less!

--Yes, I skipped a week, but I had to make sure to at least get to Walgreens because my Register Rewards are going to expire.


I got my deals from http://savingslifestyle.com/ which used to be Mommy Snacks.

Here's the details.  My retail was $39.87, but I paid $3.98 which is a savings of 90%.  I received $7 in RR which means I was paid $3 to take $39.87 of stuff out of the store.

I ran into the situation again that I had more coupons than items.  That's a no-no at both Wags and CVS.  My total was $7.40, but I still had $6 in RR.  Soooooo, I added two packs of Mike's favorite gum for $2.60 which meant I now owed $10 BUT then I could give them my $6 in RR.  I always think its a hoot that sometimes I have to spend more to pay less!
