Tweaking the 4/15 Wags roll

Bear with me here, folks, ’cause there’s a lot of variables to include for each transaction.  I’m going to spell out each roll now and then add pictures tomorrow of each roll, showing what I’m buying, what coupons I’m using and what RRs are generated

1.  Nasal Ease is $9.  Use the $5 coupon from 3/11 rp.  Pay $4 and get back $9 RR.  I actually paid $4.16 with tax.

2.  Similasan is $6.  Use the $1.50 from 4/1 ss.  Pay $4.50 get back $6 RR.
Colgate Sensitive toothpaste is $3.99. Use the $1 from 4/15 ss (the one with Band-Aids on the cover). Pay $2.99, get back $2 RR.
Since the Similasan coupon screwed up the numbers, find a $1.50 item to use as filler. I’ve listed some possibles at the bottom of the post.  In this picture I used the oatmeal.
You are now at $8.99, so use the $9 RR from transaction 1 (Nasal Ease), have the cashier mark down the RR by a penny and you’re finished with Transaction 2. You have gotten back $8 in RRs.  I paid 42¢ in tax.

3. Nasal Ease at $9 less $5 coupon. Pay $4 get a $9 RR.
Pepsi Next 20 oz bottles are .99 with a .99 RR. No coupons available.
Purex Ultra packs detergent is BOGO at $5.99. Use two $1 coupons from 3/11 rp and pay $3.99. No RRs generated here.  I paid $1.98.
Add one cheap filler for an RR from transaction 2 to attach to. Pay $8.98 (plus whatever filler you use) and get back $9.99 in RRs.  I used Hunts tomato sauce as filler.

Transactions 2 and 3 roll back and forth, but each time you finish transaction 3, you end up with the .99 Pepsi RR as a bonus.  This week the Pepsi Next was generating a FREE 1.25L Diet Coke cat – – wouldn’t it be a hoot if it continued? boo-hiss!

If you are looking for $1.50 fillers for transaction 2, I’d suggest the food stuff on sale with in-ad coupons: Hunts tomato sauce is 3/$1, Quaker Oats is 2/$3, Chicken of the Sea solid white tuna is 4/$5…you see, you are already paying high tax on the soap, Pepsi and toothpaste, so why not throw in some low tax stuff?

  1. pepsi is NOT producing coups any more, tried it on the 12 pack and the 2 liter, don’t believe i read anywhere about it producing on the 20oz. could be wrong tho. was hoping it would but w/e it wasn’t an expensive trial with the coups i used. fyi – thnx for pointing me in the right direction on which insert to look in from a post in cw land. 🙂

  2. Here is my plan —
    Trans #1
    Buy – Nasal Ease 9.00 , get 9.00RR
    Buy – Goody Hair 1.99 , get 1.00RR
    _____
    Total 10.99
    – 5.00 Nasal ease coupon
    ————
    PAY 5.99 plus tax

    Trans #2
    Buy – Similasan Allergy Relief 6.00 , get 6.00 RR
    Buy – 2 Purex Ultra Pacs 5.99 (b1g1 @5.99)
    Buy – Aqua Fresh pump 2.00
    Buy – Pepsi Next .99 , get .99 RR
    —————–
    14.98
    – 1.50 Similsan coupon
    – 1.00 Purex coupon
    – 1.00 Purex coupon
    – 1.00 Aqua Fresh April book ivc
    – 1.00 RR (Goody 1.00 rr from trans #1)
    – 9.00 RR (Nasal Ease 9.00 rr from trans #1)

    TRANS # 3
    Buy – Nasal Ease 9.00 , get 9.00 RR
    Buy – Goody Hair 1.99 , get 1.00 RR
    Buy – (filler) Taffy .10
    ————-
    11.09
    – 5.00 Nasal Ease coupon
    – 6.00 RR ( Similasan 6.00rr from trans # 2)
    ————–
    PAY .09 plus tax

    Repeat transaction # 2 and # 3 over and over and over and over ———— you will have the .99 rr left over .

    What do ya think?????

      • I will use the ivc from the April book for the Aqua Fresh Kids, not the 1.00 manufacture coupon, So, this will work, right??? Goody hair things good for donations, garage sale and Granddaughter and her dolls too!

  3. How many RR’s should I be saving to roll for next week? I guess I’ll end up with at least a bunch of $.99 if not more…
    Looking forward to the future posts!
