shopping for free

Wait, isn’t that what we’re supposed to do?  Anyway, here’s some deal tripping from today:

Walmart has the Purina cat food boxes for $2.98, so free after the coupon in today’s red plum.  Since this is a manufacturer’s coupon, the buyer is expected to pay tax – – except for me, I guess. Both cashier and supervisor said “don’t worry about it.”  sorry rachel, but you know i’m lucky…  I did not see this product at Jewel.

Jewel has the good ‘n natural bars, too, so if you can’t find them at CVS or Walgreens (or if you just don’t want to bother), head over to Jewel, where I found the cranberry/almond and peanut butter flavors for $1.19.  And since the FREE coupon from the 1/6 rp2 goes up to $1.50…

Walgreens is back to flipping Register Rewards this week.  The Estroven Nighttime and Mangodrin are both on sale for $10 with a $10 RR.  Start off that roll with the $10 RR from  the Brainstrong deals of two weeks ago.  Note, each of these items is low tax (I paid 18¢ each), so your actual OOP will be insignificant.  There is a $2 Estroven coupon in the Walgreen Vitamin and Supplement book, but it specifically says multipurpose Estroven (the yellow box).  Frankly?  Those registers are a pain when you’re buying the exact same product as on the coupon, so I didn’t even bother.  Sometimes it’s easier to just flip between one product and the next without worrying about filler items.  Again, I don’t think it will fly and I’d rather have them think I was an honest couponer.

The Lipton tea is $1 with a $1 Register Reward.  I splurged and bought THREE, using one of my $3 RRs from the engergy shots of two weeks ago.  This was the RR that spun off on one side of that transaction, so it’s not like I actually paid for it.  And we were thirsty.  No coupons out there.

    • Since you are buying two items, use the RR for the one to buy the other. In this case, I used the Brainstrong RR to buy the Mangodrin, then flipped it back for the Estroven Nighttime.

  1. The 2.00 Estroven coupon works perfectly. Use the 2.00 coupon, put a Tea $1 and a nice toilet bowl tablet $1 with a $10 rr from one of the other deals to roll nicely!
