Walgreens deals and ideas

Starbucks icecream is BOGOF = 2/$4.79
I found a coupon in my stash for $2 off Starbucks icecream.
Total price with $2 coupon comes to 2/$2.79 or $1.40 each!!! That's a steal!
Also, if you are a Facebook member, there are free coupons floating around. They are issuing 800 coupons every hour and they go QUICK. I tried several times today to get one and never caught it.

Keebler products are 4/$10 and earns $5 RRs when you buy $10 worth (got that??!!)
Here is a $1/2 printable (print 2 copies)
With 2 coupons the price comes to 4/$8 and you earn $5 RRs.

Buy $10 worth of Covergirl products and earn $3 RRs.
Use the $1 coupon from the 7/5 P&G insert and check your stash for other coupons.
Total price varies based on your purchase and coupons.

I will definitely be heading to Walgreens for my Starbucks icecream. I hear Caramel Macchiato calling my name.

Walgreens steal - 6/18/09

2 - 12packs of 7up - $5.50
1 - 12pack of A&W - $2.75
1 - 12pack of Sunkist - $2.75
2 - Scotch tape pop up dispensers - $1
2 - Scotch tape pop up refills - $1

Subtotal with tax: $13.78
Minus $1 7Up coupon
Minus $1 7 Up coupon
Minus $1 RR (
Minus $10 RR (received when I purchased my new blow dryer)

Total out of pocket: $0.78 (the state tax amount)

Earned: $2 RR

My Walgreens tip of the day: ALWAYS check their little clearance section. In my store it is located on an end cap near the make up. I found the tape dispensers and refills for $0.50 each, they had rulers for $0.50 each, pocket folders for $0.50 each, children's laxatives for $1.49 each, store brand ibuprofen for $3, and so much more! These make great filler products so you can make the best of your RR's.

Walgreens 6/17 scenario

I've got $11 RR to use by 6/18.

Dr. Pepper, 7Up, A&W, Canada Dry, Sunkist, and Hawaiian Punch are on sale for 4/$11 and earned $2 RR. I've got 2 coupons for $1 off of "Cherry 7Up Antioxidant or any flavor 7Up" 12 pack. So I'll get

2 7Ups, 1 Sunkist, and 1A&W @ $11
Less 2 $1 coupons
Total = $9

And I'll pick up something for around $2. Maybe a book or toy for my daughter.

Total out of pocket: TBD
RR's earned: $2

Walgreens

After flipping through the Walgreens book that I received in my Sunday circular, I decided they have some pretty awesome deals. They also have a "Register Rewards" (referenced as RR from now on) that is just like the CVS ECB program. Since CVS has been so crappy lately, I might give Walgreens a whirl to see what I can come up with.
