Walgreens 1/23 thru 1/29

Hello Frugal Friends!  It's another week of savings with some money making opportunities again at Wags.  Here's my list for this week:

Omega Smart Fish Oil is on sale for $10 each, with a $10 MIR making these FREE.  You can turn this one into a MM by printing off the $2 off coupon here.  This coupon is a .pdf so you can print as many as you have addresses to mail in rebates for.  You also may want to save this coupon to your computer, it doesn't expire until 12/31/2012!  We are sure to see another MM or FREEBIE on this product before the coupon expires. 

There's a really great RR promo running right now on "digestive health" products.  Products included are Maalox, Gas-X, Ex-Lax, Benefiber or Prevacid.  Spend $20 on product, get a $5 RR or Spend $30 on product, get a $10 RR.  These products are all on sale this week, all are 25% off with the exception of Prevacid which is on sale for $20.  There's many ways you can work this to get to the $30 threshold, and what you get will greatly depend on how many coupons you have available to use and what your store has in stock.  The regular price of these products vary by store also, so the 25% off will be different at various store locations, as I witnessed first hand this morning.  Here's the two really great coupons that match up to this deal and makes it a MM:  $5 off Maalox from the 1/9 SS and $4 off Gas-X Prevention from the 12/12 SS.  If I were you I would bring along all of your available coupons for these two products so that if your store has low stock of one product you can mix and match.  You must get to the $30 threshold AFTER the sale price in order for the RR to print.  Just about anyway you work this with these high value coupons you have yourself a MM. 

Vicks drops are .99 each or 2/$1.79.  Use the $1.00 off ANY Vicks product coupons from the 1/16 PG to get these FREE.  If you are lucky you will gain a few cents in overage with these - I wasn't so lucky, but FREE is always good too!  These little boxes of Vicks drops are usually up by the main registers. 

My frugal friends with small kids tell me that the deal on diapers this week is a pretty good one if you need them.  Huggies jumbo packs are on sale for $8.99 each with a $2 RR in return.  If you use the $2 off coupon in the 1/23 SS your jumbo packages will be $4.99 each after coupons and RR's.   **See the comments to this post for more info regarding this Huggies promo**

Lastly, if you are looking for a filler item to roll some RR's, might I suggest Kit Kat candy bars?  These are .49 each this week after the in-ad coupon.   Since I have no plans to head to Jewel anytime soon I needed to do some rolling and Kit Kat happen to be my favorite candy bar - how convenient!  :)

Walgreens 11/7 thru 11/13

I am a little late with posting my Wags list this week....here's what I picked up.

Neuragen nerve pain relief is on sale for $19.99 with a $19.99 MIR.  Use the $10 off coupon from the 10/24 RP or the $5 off printable at Smartsource.com to turn this into a $5 or $10 MM after MIR.  Make sure you only ring one in each transaction so you get a MIR form for each one you purchase.  (I only have 3 addresses to send rebates to so if you need one of the $10 coupons I have TWO extras to share with the first frugal friends to leave me messages).

Similasan Kids Cough or Cold & Mucus Relief is on sale for $5.99 with a $5.99 MIR making these FREE.  There's a $1.00 off printable at the Similasan website here which turns this into a $1 MM (minus postage costs).  There's also a $1.00 off manufacturer coupon inside each package, so after your first purchase you can open it up and use that coupon for your second purchase. 

Schick disposable razors are $5.99 with a $3 RR.  Use the $3 off coupon from Smartsource.com to grab these for FREE after RR.

Reach 55 yd. floss and Crystal Clean toothbrushes are both .99 with the in-ad coupon from the flyer.  Use the $1.00 off coupons from here stacked with the store coupon to grab both floss and brushes for FREE (scan the manufacturer coupon first).  (Note: there's TWO coupons, one for floss and one for toothbrushes)

RevitaLens solution is on sale for $3.99 with a $4 RR making these FREE.  There's no current coupons that I could find to turn these into a MM, but I used this as a "filler" item to roll my RR's from last week.  Doing that gives you a FREE item and extends the expiration date of your RR a little longer. 

Trial size pouches of Purina One dog food are $1.99 each, use the $2.00 off ANY Purina One dog food coupon from the 10/17 SS to grab these with .01 overage.  These little pouches usually have coupons inside to make this deal even better!  This coupon expires 11/17 so you will want to use these soon.

Lastly, in the November ALL YOU magazine there's a coupon for $5 off ANY $10 Wet 'n Wild purchase (page 22).  Wags has Wet 'n Wild nail polish, lip balm and lip stick for .99 each.  Grab 11 of these in any combination and pay just $5.89.  These make great stocking stuffers.  There's a load of fun colors in the nail polish so you should be able to find something for every girly-girl on your shopping list! 

I am not so sure I like these new MIR's that Wags is doing.  I don't like having to remember to get it in the mail, put out money for postage and wait for my rebate.  I do, however, like the fact that I don't end up with tons of RR's that I have to figure out how to spend.  What do you think of them?
