Scenario Sunday: Walgreens Scenario for the week of 1/4-1/10

This is actually a great Walgreens week, but I didn’t have a chance to do the ad/coupon match-ups. If you want to check those out, check out Nickels-N-Dimes or HCW.

Just a heads up that the Garnier Fructis is free with the Easysaver coupon and the $1 manufacturer’s coupon from today’s inserts. The Reynolds foil is free with the in ad coupon and the $1 coupon from the 12-14 inserts. With both deals, you will want to give the manufacturer’s coupon BEFORE the Walgreens coupons to avoid beepage.

Here’s the scenario I’ve come up with for the week. I have 2 $5 RR I need to roll.

TRANSACTION #1: I recently discovered that I LOVE Theraflu warming liquids, so I’m going to start with that.

Buy 2 Theraflu warming liquids – 2/$10, earn $5 RR
Use 2 $2 blinkies (found at CVS)
Use $5 RR

Spend $1, earn $5 RR

TRANSACTION #2:
Buy 4 Kellogg’s cereals, 4/$10 earn $3 RR
Buy 2 Special K and 2 Frosted Mini Wheats
Use 2 Kelloggs Frosted Mini-Wheats or All-Bran Cereal, any 11.4 oz.+ $1 (1-25-09) from 12-14 RP insert
Use 2 Kelloggs Special K or Smart Start Cereal, any 11.4 oz.+ $1 (1-25-09) from 12-14 RP insert

Buy 1 box Electrasol tablets – $3.49 ($1.50 MIR from monthly Easysaver catalog)
Use $2.50/1 Electrasol from 12-14 inserts

Buy 1 Revlon Matte eyeshadow – $4.99 (free after rebate from monthly Easysaver catalog)
Use $2/1 Revlon Color Cosmetic Product, Any – 09-14-08 SS

Buy 1 Reynolds foil – .99 w/ in ad coupon
$1/1 Reynolds Wrap Aluminum Foil, Any Excluding 25 Sq. Ft. – 12-14-08 SS
(Give the manufacturer’s coupon first to avoid beepage)

Buy 2 Garnier Fructis – $2.99
Use $2 in ad coupon
Use $1 manufacturer’s coupon (use this first to avoid beepage)

Buy 2 Hunts tomato sauce – .33/each with in ad coupon – these are “fillers” so I can use 2 $5 RR

Use 2 $5 RR

Total OOP = .62, earn $3 RR and $6.49 in rebates

TRANSACTION #3:
Buy 3 Quaker Oatmeal – $1.99 w/ in ad coupon
Buy 1 Hunt’s tomato sauce – .33/each w/ in ad coupon (this is a filler so I can use the $3 RR)
Use in ad coupon
Use 3 $1 printable manufacturer’s coupon

Use $3 RR from cereal

Total OOP = .30

So, you get $39.42 in merchandise for $1.92 OOP and get $6.49 in Walgreens rebates
