Walgreens 3/8-3/14

Today my list was a lot longer than what I was able to bring home, owing to the fact that I don't shop on Sunday, so a lot of what I wanted was gone by the time I got to Walgreens this morning. Luckily, we have two Walgreens, so when the Provo Walgreens turned up empty, I headed over to Orem's where I hit jackpot on the most important portion of my shopping list—diapers. Sure, there were a lot of other things I wanted to get that they were out of, but my understanding is that this is the best diaper deal in the history of couponing... at least, that's what it sounds like on all the couponing blogs I read, so that was my main goal. Anyway, here's my shopping trip of the day!


Grand Total: $10.50; Grand Savings: $66.33

Transaction 1: Total: $4.68; Total Savings: $32.47

• 3 Huggies Jumbo packs. On sale for $10 each. $5 internet printables. (You can print two per computer.) RR: buy $25 of participating products (which Huggies jumbo packs are part of) and get $10 in RR. So, $30 - $15 - $10 = Total for three: $5
• Skintimate Shave Gel. Price: $1.99. RR: $1. Total: $0.99

I also had a RR from a previous shopping trip for $3.50, which helped pay for this. (It counts as a MC in the savings.) You have to have more items than coupons, so because I had three Huggies, I had to throw something else in there without a coupon. I was getting the Skintimate anyway, because I'm almost out and it was cheap, so I put it on this transaction.
