Arctic blast shopping: Walgreens

Photo.jpgWhile I was running the Cuturelle/pur Absorb rolls at Walgreens yesterday, I notice lots of lots of Holiday gift sets at 75% off!  Saw AXE sets, which started me thinking … I checked, but sadly, the AXE gift set coupons were all expired.  However, there is a January AXE promotion where you get 2,000 points for every two products AND it’s on a B1G1 50% off sale this week AND the 1/26 rp had lots of coupons.  Since I was there anyway (more Culturelle) … I grabbed clearance body wash and spray to test what would happen.

What happens is that the clearance items ring up B1G1 50% off, too!  So you buy as many sets of two clearance as you can find, then use either the $2/2 or $1 coupons.  I’m in the high rent district, so my products were $3.79 (body spray) and $2.99 (shower gel).  Used $14 in mfr coupon and two $10 RRs (the $2/2 only counted as one coupon, so I had some wiggle room), bringing the total down to $2.51 high tax and 56¢ product.  Obviously you can make some good money on this if your stores have lower clearance prices…

I made 14,000 in regular points plus 1,700 additional points from the Winter Beauty promotion.  Remember do not use points to pay for these, since you won’t earn new points.  But since I used points to buy Culturelle and then used those $10 RRs, I was good to go.
