My first trip to Walgreens this week was actually to my nearest Wags to try out the Almay Deal. At that store, the prices came up BOGO Half Off. I went to my other location, crossing my fingers that it was BOGO FREE. And indeed it was, what an awesome deal!

11/3 Trip Transaction #2
So, I went out to my car, put my bags up and checked my receipt. At that point, I realized the Almay Sale had taken off BOGO FREE instead of half off, so I went back inside.

11/6 Trip
Today, I made a classic mistake I thought would be good to point out. It is so easy to do, I know good & well not to do this, yet I still make this blunder on occasion. I just take it as lesson learned and move on.
- Herbal Essences Shampoo & Hairspray, Used FREE Shampoo Q, and Used Free Styling product wyb Shampoo Q, Got Back $2.00 RR
- Pantene 2 trial size shampoos $1.19 ea, Used $1.00/2 Q (Ok, here’s where I made my mistake, I know this rule so well, but it just never even occurred to me the goof I was making, I guess I was too focused on Almay LOL-Anyway, my mistake was that I had already gotten a Register Reward for the Herbal Essence Deal above, so it didn’t print a Register Reward beings it was the same deal. While you can get more than one RR in a single transaction, you can’t get 2 RRs for the same deal. If I had done this in a separate transaction, I would have gotten back a $2.00 RR)
