If you are going to Walgreens soon, you might want to check out this post over at Hip 2 Save. It can't hurt to have these coupons with you if you are headed there anyway. I struck out at "my" Walgreens this afternoon for these products, but maybe you will get lucky. If you find these, leave us a comment with the store that you spotted them at!
Garnier Fructis - Clearanced to $1.09
California Kitchen Pizza - Clearanced to $2.00

Printable Unilever Coupons
**UPDATE - This link has been running extremely slow. It does eventually load so give it time. The site is probably on overload with many visitors!**
My frugal friend Beth gave me a "heads up" on these great Unilever coupons. Go here to print Skippy, Bertoli, Q-tips, I Can't Believe It's Not Butter and Dove Men+Care coupons. These may work well with your Jewel shopping this week for the Unilever Catalina Promo.

Paying it forward
You may have noticed recently that I have added some icons (to this site) for things like Coupons.com and Upromise.com. I would like to try to improve this site and have some great ideas for helping make your shopping trips easier, but I do not have the technical know-how to make these things happen without professional assistance.
In order to help build a fund to make these changes, I have signed up for a commission based program for these and a few other external links. I signed up to hopefully "earn" a little pocket change to make these improvements happen. I would love to see some of these ideas put to good use. What I DO NOT want to do is turn this site into an advertisement board - I will only join onto commissionable links that are useful to us and related to the content here.
I am hoping that anytime you need to print from Coupons.com you will do so through the links here rather than elsewhere. Signing up for their e-mail newsletter is also a commissionable task (hint, hint). :-)
Upromise is a wonderful program and is very low maintenance once you are signed up - there's no better time than right now to get started!
Thanks for "paying it forward" and using these links - I hope to return the favor by making changes so that this is your "go-to" site for all things frugal!

.75 Softsoap Coupon - Use @ Wags 5/2-5/8
Here's a link to a coupon for .75 off any Softsoap brand body wash. You can use this @ Wags this week for cheap body wash. Softsoap is on sale for $2.99 with a $2 RR in return. Using this coupon makes the Softsoap .24 after sale and RR.
I have read reports that the Softsoap RR is rolling as of today. If you want to give this a try, go for it! Rolling usually only lasts a day or so until Catalina realizes that it's rolling and puts an end to it. Remember, if you are going to roll the RR and use the manufacturer coupon you will need a "filler" because of that silly rule at Wags with the # of Q's used.

Changes Coming to Wags
There has been talk for about 6 months (or longer) now that Walgreens is going to be upgrading their registers. There have been reports on CW that these new registers have started to pop up in certain areas. One of the store managers at "my" Wags has commented to me about the new system and how it works with coupons. The register will match the coupons to the items on the receipt, similar to how Target receipts print out.
It seems as if there are some "bugs" that will need to be worked out on the new registers so I am going to recommend that you watch your receipts very carefully if you encounter a store with these new registers. It has been reported that, when using manufacturer and store coupons together, the register is not recording the manufacturer coupon. It would be a good idea to have a close estimate on what your total should be before you check out so you can be sure things worked out the way they should before you pay.
I have also read reports that it is difficult to apply any additional coupons after the cashier totals the transaction (using RR's after knowing your total).
Just my guess, but I think the new register system will mean the end of overage with coupons at Walgreens. The only way we will know for sure is reading information from other shopper's posts and trial and error on our part. If you have an experience with one of the new registers please send me a note - I would love to get some info on how they are working.
Stay tuned for additional info as I get it...

5/2/10 Walgreens Shopping Trip
Walgreens seems a bit "slow" this week; here's a few good deals that I took advantage of @ Wags today. Not an overall MM but still some deals on stuff that we use.
I know you are probably thinking - "what's with all the body wash this woman buys!!" Seriously, we go through a lot of body wash in our house. I don't know why that is because there's only 2 adults here that use it. Whenever I see a body wash deal I am all over it - as far as I am concerned I can't ever have enough stockpiled!
Here's how I worked two transactions to get everything in the photo for $1.83.
Transaction #1:
2 Nivea shower gel @ $4.79 each = $9.58
1 Nivea body wash @ 5.59
3 Puffs with Lotion @ 1.99 each = $5.97
2 Sure deodorant @ 2/$5
1 Irish Spring body wash @ 2.99
TOTAL: $29.13
Tax: $1.63
Minus Coupons:
2 $4.00 off Nivea body wash 5/2 RP
1 B1G1F ($4.79) Nivea body wash May ALL YOU
2 $1.50 off Sure deodorant
1 $1.00 Irish Spring (received from my neighbor, looked to be from a magazine or home mailer)
$1.00 off Puffs with Lotion from Vocalpoint (home mailer)
2 $.50 off Puffs with Lotion from Vocalpoint (home mailer)
$3.00 off for Puffs (Wags in-ad store coupon)
$2.00 off for Sure (Wags in-ad store coupon)
TOTAL coupons : $23.79
Paid $6.97 OOP and received back $7 RR's ($2 for Irish Spring & $5 for Nivea)
Transaction #2:
1 Nivea body wash @ $5.59
1 Men's Nivea body wash @ 4.79
1 Nivea shower gel @ 4.79
3 Puffs with Lotion @ $1.99 each = $5.97
TOTAL: $21.14
Tax: $1.22
Minus Coupons:
2 $4.00 off Nivea body wash 5/2 RP
1 $3.00 off Men's Nivea body wash 5/2 RP
3 .50 off Puffs with Lotion from Vocalpoint (home mailer)
$3.00 off for Puffs (Wags in-ad store coupon)
TOTAL coupons : $15.50
Paid $ 6.86 OOP and received back $5 RR for Nivea
Total OOP for both transactions = $13.83 and received back $12.00 in RR's.
The Nivea deal can be worked many different ways - the sale is "Spend $15 on participating Nivea products and get $5 RR". The Nivea products are also on sale for 20% off this week. I had a few extra $4 off Nivea body wash coupons that I shared with my favorite cashier, Rodie. It pays to have all those extra coupon inserts for the weeks that the deals are really good. I like to share my coupon wealth! :)

10 Pairs of Ladies Sunglasses for $16.78 Shipped
I ordered this lot of sunglasses for a total of $16.78 which includes shipping. The site lists the actual retail value of these at $199.99. I can't wait to get them and see what kind of quality they are. My order stated that they won't ship until 5/12 so I will have to wait a little while to find out!
Graveyardmall is a liquidation/closeout site where there are deals on everything from sunglasses to automotive to lighting fixtures. Have you ever ordered from them? Stay tuned and I will report back on my purchase when it arrives.

Jewel 'YourBucks' Pilot Program
Today I received this e-mail from Catalina regarding the Jewel 'YourBucks' program:
To our Valued Customers,
On Wednesday, May 5th, we will be discontinuing the "YourBucks" pilot program. We thank you for your participation in this test promotion and hope that you enjoyed the many special offers.
Catalina Marketing will be evaluating the "YourBucks" program before making any decisions about future activity. If you would like to provide any comments or suggestions on this program, please go online at tv.catalinamarketing.com with your feedback. You can add your comments in the customer service section of the website.
Again, thanks for your participation in the "YourBucks" program!
Bummer!! I had really hoped it would continue beyond the proposed end date. If you enjoyed FREE Activia, Suave, Oscar Meyer, Tidy Cat and other great deals through 'YourBucks' I hope you will provide feedback as suggested above so that maybe they will continue to offer it.
I did see over at CW that some other stores (Shop Rite) are rolling out similar programs but none in my area. I will keep you posted if I see any good ones at stores nearby.
