Be on the look-out for great clearance deals in the baby section. The sale typically starts in late December and extends through February. Some areas have already started marking items down to 30% -50% off. Here are some items to watch for:

*Graco Pack and Plays (specifically the Emelia and Melbourne designs)
*Baby mattresses
*Baby monitors
*Boppy pillows and covers
*baby monitors
*car seats

In my stores, as the holiday decor clears out, they are putting out value boxes of Pampers and Huggies. Based on my experience from previous years, by February, they will start to clearance these (they usually start out at 15%, then go to 30%…there are rarely any left in my store after that point)

The Walgreens Robitussin/Dimetapp deal just got HOTTER

I previously posted information about the Robitussin/Dimetapp RR deal at Walgreens this week here and here.

The deal is even BETTER because it overlaps with a few other catalina deals: (This information came from Common Sense with Money)
*Get $5 RR when you buy three Wyeth products (ends 12/31)
*Get $5 RR when you buy $10 in Wyeth products (ends 1/31)
*Get $10 RR when you spend $20 (ends 1/31)

The Robitussin/Dimetapp is on sale for $4/each this week (I believe the regular price is $5.99). Print five of the $2 off coupons (the links are posted here). Then, if you can get your hands on five bottles, you will spend $10 out of pocket after coupons, but you will get $20 in RR (if you buy them before 12/31). After 12/31, you will get $15 in RR.

Since the $15 overlap will continue through January, if your store is out of Robitussin/Dimetapp, ask for rainchecks for the $4 price!

It’s a great time to stock up on cough syrup! 🙂

Scenario Sunday: Walgreens scenarios for the week of 12/28

It will be hard to get anything for low OOP this week at Walgreens unless you already have RR to roll into a deal or have a gift card with a balance.

If you want low OOP, the easiest thing to start with is the Gillette Fusion razor:

$8.99, earns $3 RR
Use $4 Fusion coupon from 11/30 P&G or 12/28 P&G
Spend $4.99 (I will use a $5 RR from the Claritin deal this week and add a small filler), earn $3 RR

Then, I will do the Johnson deal:
Buy $10 or more, Get $3 RR
Desitin Ointment, Johnson’s Baby Oil, Shampoo or Powder – 2/ $6
Johnson’s Baby Wash or Lotion – $5
Care Bear Wipes – $5
Walgreen’s Pediatric Electrolyte solution – $3

I will buy 2 Johnsons shampoo products and a Johnsons lotion – $11
I will use the $3/3 Johnsons printable
I will use my $3 RR from the Gillette deal
Spend $5, earn $3 RR

The Robitussin deal isn’t a bad one if you need cough syrup. You will spend a little bit up front if you don’t have any RR or a gift card balance, but you also get a $10 RR back:

Buy $20, Get $10 RR – Buy $10, Get $5 RR
Robitussin or Dimetapp – $4

Buy 5 Robitussin/Dimetapp
Use 5 $2 Robitussin/Dimetapp printables
Spend $10, get $10 (or spend less if you have RR to roll into the deal)

Here are a few of the deals:
Claritin – $14.99, get $5 RR
Use $3 printable from Claritin.com

Mucinex – $9.99/each – get $5 RR when you buy 2

If you haven’t done it already, today is the last day to take advantage of the Energizer deal with the sale prices. In case you missed it last week, it is still on sale for $7.99 (through 12/27).

Some people are reporting they have found $2 peelies on them. There is a $5 Easysaver rebate this month (#20, I believe) and the $5 manufacturer’s rebate, so it ends up being an $8.01 moneymaker if you have the coupons I mentioned. You can see a picture of it here on my blog.
