Money Maker at Walgreens for Friday and Saturday


Would you believe I MADE $12.61 by buying this stuff??? On days like today I feel like I am shoplifting-but it is legal! Here is how I did it:

*the olives with the .99 coupon from the ad and milk were just fillers to make my order more than $40 and the rest were FAR items:

Chemistry Shampoo or Conditioner or Treatment--prices up to $7.99
Use $3/1 coupon from August EasySaver booklet
Get full rebate from September EasySaver booklet
Free plus $3 overage after coupon and rebate


Buy 1 Nivea for Men Body Wash at $4.99
Use $1/1 coupon from the 7/20 SmartSource
Free plus $1 overage after coupon and rebate

Buy 1 L'oreal RevitaLift Anti-Wrinkle Concentrate at $16.49
Use $3/1 coupon from the 7/20 SmartSource
Free plus $3 overage after coupon and rebate

Buy 1 Crest Pro-Health toothpaste at $3.79
Use $0.75/1 coupon from the 8/3 P&G
Free plus overage after coupon and rebate

Buy 1 Revlon Nail Color at $4.79
Use $2/1 coupon from the 8/24 SmartSource
Free plus $2 overage after coupon and rebate

Walgreens Acid Controller Complete $7.99
FAR

You could also buy the other FAR items which my Walgreens didn't have in stock:

Excedrin Express Gels $3.99
FAR

LypSyl Stick $1.99
FAR

Pitcher Filter Replacemement $6.99
FAR

Good on Friday & Saturday only Spend $40 get $10 off. If FAR items bought later in the month you would still make some $ and get a bunch of FREE stuff but it wouldn't be such an incredible money maker.

Hello, I have been "lurking" your blog since finding it on the MOMS group you posted to.
Tonight I was telling my husband about this particular blog and that you got basically paid for getting stuff... He works in retail and is wondering how you are getting cash back on the items. He says most coupons will say "no cash value" or such on them...

You are inspiring me to make some huge changes in how we spend money :) Thank you for sharing your blog!

OK, so this one was a little more confusing to me, but that's ok, I'm getting it slowly but surely. Yes we have a Safeway, but no more Albertsons. Only Lucky's and Raleys. But I don't go by them very often. We have a Walgreens down the road. Our Winco won't take Internet coupons. Today I ttok back my other 2 Avent bottles and got 4 Dr. Brown bottled BPA free and got $8 back. How did that happen. I went when they had a buy3 get one free on Dr. Browns and I had a 15% off coupon on the Dr. Browns. Sweet, huh?? THanks for the help. BTY, Patrick loves it!! We need lot's more Safeway deals -k- P.S. How are you feeling. Any sickness?
