Super Easy Walgreen's Scenario for Beginners


I had a $2 RR that was going to expire this week, so I needed an easy scenario to use it up.  This is a great scenario for beginner's because you can do it with little or no RR saved up and spend very little oop.  The transactions are simple and really help you get your feet wet.  My totals do not include sales tax. Here is what I did:

Trans. #1

Purchased 4 Reach Crystal toothbrushes @ $1.59/ea (Troup/Loop was well stocked)
Purchased 1 Royal gelatin @ $.69
Total:  $7.05
 - used 4 $1/1 ANY Reach printable (you can print 2 per computer, so hit up your friends/family!)
    (thanks to Wild for Wags for the link!)
 - used in ad Q for gelatin (takes off $.49)
 - used $2 RR from Huggies*
Total spent:  $.56
RR recieved:  $4 from Reach (monthly deal)

*If you are just beginning and have no RR, then you would pay $2.56 oop and receive $4 RR.

Trans. #2

Purchased 2 Irish Spring deodorant @ 2/$6
Purchased 1 Royal gelatin @ $.69
Total: $6.69
 - used 2 $1/1 Irish Spring printable (have to enter sweepstakes)
