My Favorite Deals This Week @ Walgreens

Here are the deals that I just can't pass up this week (and neither should you)!

Walgreen
Mars and Dove Candy Bars - $.39

Post Cereal - $1.75

Soft Soap Body Wash - 2 for $6, plus you get $4 Register Rewards

Starbucks Frapuccinos - 4 for $5, plus you get $1 Register Rewards

Old El Paso 12pk Taco Shells - $1

Hamburger Helper - $1 (there have recently been coupons in the paper for $.75 off of 3)


Dole Fruit Crisps - $1 (A few weeks ago, there was a $.50 coupon in the paper)

Duncan Hienz Brownie Mix - $1

Lunchables 2 for $3, plus you get $1 Register Rewards

Finish Power Tabs - $3.49, plus you get $1.50 Register Rewards (and if you've been saving your coupons, you probably have the $.75 coupon tucked away)

Gillette, Old Spice and Zest Body Wash (mix and match) - 3 for $10, plus you get $3 Register Rewards (There are also multiple coupons. In this weeks paper there is a Gillette Body Wash $2 coupon. In recent papers there have also been $1 off 2 Old Spice Products, Buy 1 Get 1 Free Old Spice Body Wash, and $1 off Zest Body Wash coupons)

Gillette Fusion Pro Glide Razor - $9.89 plus you get $5 Register Rewards

There is also an in ad coupon for $3 off Goodys or BC Powders. You can combine this with the $1 manufacturer coupon in this Sundays paper.


* Register Rewards are coupons that print after you paid and are good off your next order. You can only do 1 of each type of register rewards per transaction. For example you can do the Finish, Gillette/Old Spice/Zest Body Wash and Gillette Fusion Pro Glide all in the same transaction, but if you bought 2 of the Finish Power Tabs, you would want to do two transactions to get both Register Rewards.

How would I make the most of this?

Transaction #1
2 Old Spice Body Wash's $6.66 -B1G1 Coupon = $3.33
1 Gillette Deoderant and 1 Gillette Body Wash $7.33 - B1 Deo. G1 BW = 4.00
2 Soft Soap Body Wash's $6

Total Before Taxes $13.33 and you get $7 Register Rewards.

Transaction #2
1 Gillette Body Wash $3.33 - $2.00 coupon in this Sundays Paper = $1.33
2 Old Spice Body Wash's $6.66 - $1 off 2 products coupon = $5.66
1 Finish Power Tab $3.49 - $.75 coupon = $2.74

Total Before Taxes $9.73, and you get another $4.50 Register Rewards

Transaction #3
3 Hamburger Helpers $3 - $.75 coupon = $2.25
1 Dole Fruit Crisp $1 - $.50 coupon = $.50
2 Lunchables $3
4 Starbucks Frappucinos $5
1 Old El Paso Taco Shells $1

Total Before Taxes is $11.75, use the $11.50 in Register Rewards from the previous two transactions and you pay $.25 plus taxes, AND you just got another $2 Register Rewards.

Transaction #4 (the Final One!)
1 Duncan Heinze Brownie Mix - $1
3 Mars Candy Bars - $1.17

Total Before Taxes $2.17, use the $2 Register Rewards and your total is $.17 plus taxes.

This would make your total spent: $23.48 plus taxes!

For that $23.48 you got:

8 Body Washes (4 Old Spice, 2 Gillette, 2 Softsoap)
1 Deoderant
1 Finish Power Tabs
3 Hamburger Helpers
2 Lunchables
4 Frappuccinos
1 Dole Fruit Crisp
1 Old El Paso pack of Taco Shells
1 Box of Brownie Mix
3 Candy Bars.

What would you do?

Parents and Nutritional Idealogy

Last night I was reading an article in one of my parenting forums. The article itself was innocent enough, dispelling the myth that caffine stunts growth. The comments however, annoyed the crap out of me. “I don't see the point of giving child soda…..They are pretty horrible for you. So why give it to my daughter? There are plenty of other options out there than soda. Caffeine free or not, they don't need all that sugar. The sugar alternatives are just as bad. Their little bodies are developing so fast, why not give them beverages that encourage a healthy mind and body.” “What amazes me, in reading some of these community answers is how much artificial sugar parents are giving their children. Diet soda is no more healthy than regular soda, it doesn't contain sugar but it does contain chemically made ingredients such as aspartame or Nutra Sweet which the FDA says to consume in moderation because long term side effects need to be evaluated. Its unfortunate that even Pedia...

The Project

The project is simple. Write the maker of a product every day for a year. Do not ask them specifically for coupons as I did in the Coupon Mania post. Do not write regarding any particular product more than twice in a year. Do not write any particular parent company more than four time is a month (or once a week). Be honest in what you write, give feed back, ask questions. (NOTE: While I have these categorized by parent company, I never wrote to any parent company more than one time in a day.)
