Hiya! So this morning, after running to CVS, I swung by two of the closest Walgreens near me. They were unfortunately out of the Dove Men+Care shampoo & conditioner which was crucial item because I was trying take advantage of the Points Booster! Hopefully I can score these deals at some point this week. Here is what I had planned: 
Picture

(2) Tresemme Shampoo/Cond $3.99 = $7.98
Earn 2,000 wyb 2
(2) -$2/1 Tresemme MQ
Total: $3.98

(1) Ban Cooling Cloths $3.99
-$3.99 Ban Free product MQ
Total: Free

(2) Dove Men+Care Shampoo/Cond $4.79 BOGO 50% = $7.18
Earn 2,000 wyb 2
(2) -$2.50/1 Dove Men MQ
Total: $2.18

(1)Morton Epsom Lotion $6
Earn $6 RR wyb 1
Total: $6

                                                                    Total before coupons: $25.15 
                                                                    Scan points booster
                                                                    Total after coupons: $12.16
                                                                    Use $8.99 in RR & points - Pay $3.17 oop
                                                                    Earn 9,000 points and $6 RR!

I might have to re-plan since the cashier at Walgreens mentioned not receiving another shipment until Friday. By then, the Points Booster offer would have expired. :(

Hello frugal friends! I would say my most favorite item to save on is a good quality razor (free make-up is always a score too!). This week at Walgreens, I redeemed my $5 Happy Cash I earned from last week's sales! In order to redeem your Happy Cash, you must spend $30. So here is a great scenario I conjured up to meet that $30 mark. Only one transaction was completed and I had a total of $7 in Register Rewards and $5 Happy Cash!

Transaction:
(1) Vaprino A-D Anti-Diarrheal 12 pk $5
*Buy 1, Earn $5 RR
-$1/1 Vaprino MQ printable (No longer available to print!)
Total: $4, earn $5 RR, essentially a $1 money maker! :)

(1)Schick Hydro Refill $14.49 
(1)Schick Hydro 5 Razor System $11.99 ($5.99)
*BOGO 50% off
*Spend $20, earn 5,000 Balance Rewards Points
-$10/1 Schick Razor System AND Refill MQ (SS 03/23 insert)
Total: $10.48, earn 5,000 points, essentially $2.74 each!

(4) Almay Softies Eyeshadows @ $4.99 each
*BOGO 50% off = $14.96
-$2/1 Almay Cosmetics Walgreens in store coupon (deducts $8)
(2) -$5/2 Almay Cosmetics MQ printable (No longer available) 
MQ adjusted down to $7 (Walgreens gives no overage)
Total: FREE

(1) Pencil @ $0.19 (Clearance/Filler Item)

Total before coupons: $40.65
Total after coupons: $14.65
Used $5/$30 Happy Cash = $9.65
Used $7 in RRs - Paid $2.99 out of pocket
Earned $5 RR and 5,000 points = $10 for next week!

Thanks for reading and have a great week! :)

Hello Walgreens shoppers! I decided not to upload a video last week due to how the deals were and I spent about $14 out of pocket. Just didn't think it was Youtube worthy. Last week, I did earn 10,000 Rewards Points from the Points Booster promo last week! I only did one transaction and used 10,000 points.

I am taking advantage of the Happy Cash promotion Walgreens is holding this week!

Transaction 1:
(3) Sure Deodorant $1.49 = $4.47
(3)-$1/1 Sure MQ (03/16 SS)
Total: $1.47

(2) Brut Deodorant $1.49 = $2.98
(2)-$1/1 Brut MQ (03/16 SS)
Total: $0.98

(2) Colgate Maxfresh $2.50 = $5.00
*$2 RR when you buy 2
(2)-$1/1 Colgate Toothpaste (03/09 SS)
Total: $3.00

(2) Bic Silky Tough Razors $3.99 = $5.98
*BOGO 50% off
(2) $3/1 Bic Disposables (03/09 SS)
Total: FREE

(2) Bic Sensitive Razors $4.49 = $6.73
*BOGO 50% off
(2) $3/1 Bic Disposables (03/09 SS)
Total: $0.73

(1) Shotz Natural Energy $5.00
*$5 RR when you buy 1
Total: $5, essentially free after RR

Total before coupons: $30.31
Total after coupons: $11.31
Used 10,000 points - Paid $1.54 out of pocket
Earned $5 RR (Shotz), $5 Happy Cash, $2 RR (Colgate)

So essentially this trip was a slight money maker since I walked in with $10 in points, paid $1.54, and left with $12 in RRs/Happy Cash!

I'm not quite sure what I think about Walgreens. Their sales have been kind of lacking and I always seem to spend more than what I would like. They can have some awesome BOGO deals though!

I had 3,000 points on my Walgreens Rewards card and completed two transactions:

Transaction #1: 3,000 points
(2) Garnier Fructis Shampoo/Conditoner @ $3.00 each
(FYI: There seems to be a lot of confusion on this deal, see Wild for Wags post on the dealio: Wild for Wags)
(2) -$2/1 Garnier Fructis shampoo/conditioner RP 03/02
Paid $2.16 - Earned 2,000 points (Manager entered manually)

Transaction #2: 5,000 points to spend
(2) Nivea Shave gels @ $3.49 each - BOGO Free!
-$2/2 Nivea Shave gel RP 02/09/14
Total: $1.49

(4) Almay Softies Eyeshadow @ $4.99 each - BOGO 50% off!
(4) - $1/1 Almay cosmetics (peelie) or SS 02/02/14
(4) -$2/1 Almay cosmetics Wags in store coupon (deducted $8)
Total: $2.96, $0.74 each!

(1) Kellogg's Breakfast Shake $1.49
*Buy 1, Earn $1.149 RR

Total: $19.94
Total after coupons: $6.24
Used 5,000 points - Paid $1.63 out of pocket
Earned $1.49 RR for next week!

Hopefully there will be some kind of money maker deals coming soon cause these current RR deals are lame. 

Thanks for reading!
