Walgreens


Nothing like last year's great candy deals, but I was going to buy candy anyway so I consider it lucky to have gotten this deal.

This week Wags has snack/fun sized Hershey's, Mars, and Nestle candy on sale for $1.99 with in-ad coupon (regularly priced $2.99).

Yesterday I went in a Walgreens where my son was participating in a Cross Country meet, and they were practically cleaned out of candy. I got a bag of Health and Reese's PB cups. So today I went to the new store where I have been having pretty good luck, apparently not too many coupon/deal shoppers shop there (yet).

They had this Theramax Cold Nasal Spray stuff for $7.99, free after RR, which I got since I was planning to spend at least $8.00 anyway on the candy.
Paid $8.55, and got back $8.00 RR (Sort of a waste of .55, since we probably won't use this, but oh well.)

$2.99 Candy x 9
-9.00 in-ad coupon
-6.00 $1/1 Hershey's IP 
-1.50/3 (insert? q) (A nice lady shopping at the same time, not knowing I had $1/1 coupons in my pocket, offered me this coupon and I didn't want to reject her niceness, so I accepted the coupon gratefully and bought three more bags of candy. Can't have too much candy, I always say!)
= $10.41 + tax

Averaged out to about $1.15 a bag, which I was happy with.

I see now there was a better deal at CVS. Why didn't I know that? There were (5) CVS stores where I was at yesterday. Not to mention I still have ECBs to spend/roll.  Argh.

The Wal's

Walgreens

Previously when I bought those littler bags of Brach's candies, I didn't know there was a monthly deal on these larger bags for $1.00 each after RR.
I bought a couple of bags a couple of weeks ago, then a couple more a week or so ago (I don't think I posted that shop because it was a Fail). Tomorrow is the last day they are on sale for that price so I went ahead today and stocked up on a few more bags.

Since I was going to buy the candy anyway, they have a sale this week on Wags Ultra Thin Pads 18ct. only, Free after $2.00 RR.
So I bought the Pads, paid $2.14, got $2.00 RR

The candy was 2/$3.00, used $2.00 RR and paid $1.09 cash, got $1.00 RR

Spent $1.00 RR on 2/$1.00 Arizona Teas, paid .03 tax

Total $3.26 for package of Pads, 2 bags candy, and 2 Arizona Tea

I did the pad/candy/tea deal three times (wanted to do 5, but they only had 3 pads in stock), then I bought 10 Arizona teas in addition because my family likes them.

Walmart


Found a Walmart with the Crest Complete trial size toothpastes for .97, so I used the $2.00 q's from (insert?) for overage to purchase some items I needed: spray adhesive and paint roller things.

I bought the spray adhesive and (4) toothpastes (as limited by the coupon) and paid .40 oop. My son bought the paint roller things and (4) toothpastes and got .10 back.
