I hit a few Wags today in my search for MM deals. At each I was buying 2 Osteo Bi-Flex 30 caplet size on sale for $9.99 with a $1 RR. There was an unadvertised BOGO on it so I used 2 $6/1 coupons from 3/6r ($5/1 in 2/13s gets it free). Added an Almay remover and a Plackers to use up the overage. I found four toothbrushes at one Wags, about 18 of the Snickers Easter eggs ($1/2 3/20r) for free and I was able to score a few more of the Beauty Books. Total OOP was about $8 (I seem to have lost some receipts) and I earned $52 in RRs (30 from Almay; 6 from Osteo Bi-Flex; 12 from Plackers and 4 from Reach).
I think this is a sweet deal to run with any combination of products; you can always use the overage on Plackers, since you get the $2 back anyway. Toothbrushes have turned into the dodos of the deal-world – ain’t gonna find any.
aw come on!! i just got back from Wags!!
some of us work y’ah know…
so I guess that means Steve in Wheaton was not able to get more today….?
I’d use the overage on the Method hand soap I like…and it gives a $2RR too!!
i”m gettin’ tired from all the shoppin’ and I haven’t picked up my Almay from Wheaton yet! boy oh boy! gonna’ need a massage and facial soon to repair the damage
Steve can’t get in any more of the Osteo, so that’s why I was hitting all the Wags I could find. Since it’s not a good deal without the BOGO and the BOGO is unadvertised (duh) you stand a pretty good chance of finding products on the shelf. I like your idea of the Method hand soap, so maybe when I get more coupons I’ll use that as a filler. I mean, I’ll be out of teeth before I’m out of Plackers.
Just wanted to tell the Derangedme Reader World that I LOVE THIS WEBSITE!!! I LOVE THE WHEATON WAGS! I LOVE STEVE AT WAGS, even though I bareley saw him, I LOVE PHILIPE AND THERESA THE BA/ EFFICIENT CASHIERS AT THE WHEATON WAGS. I LOVE THE $500.00 IN RR I GOT BECAUSE I STUMBLED ALONG AND FOUND THIS WEBSITE AND TOOK YOUR ADVICE. <3
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
DITTO to the above comment! I did have Steve ring up the majority of my order – HE IS SUCH A SWEETIE ! He multitasks like no one I have ever seen – handles phone calls – customer questions – employee questions – and never skipped a beat while ring up my order! Steve, you are the MAN! All the employees are just wonderful too, and did a very quick and efficient job, when Steve needed to step away. LOVED walking out of the Wheaton store with SO MANY RR’s. So glad my daughter found & shared the GODDESS with me! Not only does she share such incredible deals (thank you, thank you, thank you!), but she has a great sense of humor – Love the site! Wonder if Steve will have a hand in the new store going up on Whirli & 75th in Naperville, or the Goddess can make the magic work there?
Darn it! Wish I knew about this Osteo BiFlex, I happen to buy one the other night, because the hubby wanted it, and only bought one! OH well, at least I now know and I will have to go and stock up for him! Thanks for the info!
Well, let’s see now… You have the receipt, right? So if your husband hasn’t opened it yet, you could return it and buy two. If he HAS opened it, buy two and return the unopened one. If you got a $1 RR, then bring it with and offer to turn it in. Mgr probably won’t accept it, but will appreciate your gesture. This is how you lull them into a false sense of security. heheheheh
Thanks for the idea. I am surprised I didn’t think of that myself, that is totally something I would do. Well, after I read this I ran out and “bought” 8 more, so I definitely have enough to make a return!
