I shopped at a couple different Walgreens this week, but my last trip was my favorite trip. While I was at Walgreens yesterday, I ran into someone that reads my blog! It was a pleasure to meet you Tracy & seriously, you made my day! 😀 I was at the end of my shopping trip for the day, so I did two quick transactions & here’s how they turned out:

Transaction #1

  • 4 Crayola Pop Art Pixies $5.99 ea. (part of the 4 day sale, ends today 12/11), Used 4 $4.00/1 coupons from HERE. Note: You may still be able to print these, Crayola seems to have been periodically resetting these coupons, so if you haven’t had a chance to print these, check back now! Second Note: If you’re into Target, these are actually a better deal there through today 12/11. Buy 2 & Get a $5.00 Gift Card. Price Matching with the Walgreens ad would make them $3.98 total, Get back $5.00 Target Gift Card, a profit of $1.02. Now, having said that, this is very much ymmv. For some people, the Price Matching has worked like a breeze, for other people, their Targets have refused to give them the Gift Card with the Price Match. I personally have not had much luck with Target period in the last few months (and I only have one store to choose from), so I chose to go with Walgreens and use up some Register Rewards I had from previous weeks.
  • 6 Hallmark Tissue Papers 3/$1.00, Used Walgreens 3/$1 in-ad coupon, Got $5.00 RR
  • Used $9.00 in previous RRs
  • Final Cost $0.96, Got back $5.00 RR (Jingle Cash) & $5.00 in Super Jingle Cash

Transaction #2

  • 2 Hallmark Color Studio Wrapping Paper BOGO @ $1.99 Used $0.50/1 Walgreens coupon from HERE (at my store, they rang up $1.99 & 0, so the coupon took off $0.50 1x, not 2x)
  • 5 Hallmark Tissue Papers 3/$1.00, Used Walgreens 3/$1 in-ad coupon, Got back $5.00 RR (for purchasing 6 total Hallmarks, I bought the 5th tissue paper to make the math come out right for the RR I used)
  • Used $3.00 in previous RR
  • Final Cost $0.17 and got back $5.00 RR
UPDATE: The Hallmark wrapping paper & tissue paper is now a dead deal from what I’ve been hearing. 🙁

    I went into Walgreens yesterday to get 6 packages of Hallmark tissue paper and I used the in-ad coupon and I had expected to get the $5 RR back, but I didn’t. I was pretty sure that I had read somewhere that the tissue paper was triggering the RR, but I wanted to go home and check first. Is there anyway for me to go back to the store and get the RR or am I just out of luck with this one?

    I love it when you post your week in reviews. I didn’t know about the Crayola Pop Art Pixies but thanks to your post we managed to score 6. That’s 6 Christmas gifts and we got PAID to take them. Woo hoo! Thank you, thank you!
