My Army of Mini-Doves

UPDATE on Dove Deal at WAG's - it looks like corporate caught on and the small size Dove deodorants I bought are no longer working for the RR deal. I'm not sure about the soap though. Looks like this deal won't work the rest of the month. Maybe regular size Dove will be on sale at one point and it will still be a good deal later in the month. Fingers crossed!

Song of the Day - Queen - Don't Stop Me Now

TOTAL MARCH PROFIT $38.28

Walgreens, oh wonderful, Walgreens! We had so much fun today, didn't we dear Walgreens?

Store 1 - picked up a box of Blink eye drops plus the stuff below, but it turned out to be the wrong size. The manager voided the original transaction and then I re-bought this stuff. He let me keep the second $3.50 RR for Colgate. :)

• Wal-Zyr $3.99 - mega saver price until 3/28, will get back $4.39 ($3.99 + 10%, ESR #14) = $0.40 profit
• Colgate Max Toothpaste $3.29, used $0.50 coupon (2/22 SS) and got back $3.50 RR = $0.71 profit
• Used $2 RR, total was $5.01, overall profit was $4.38 (including second $3.50 RR)

Store 2 - had picked up 2 clearanced Nice & Easy hair colors and was using a $5 coupon (3/1 P&G). The cashier told me I couldn't use the N&E coupon (the register was beeping), so I took the coupon back and asked him to take the hair color off the order. I realized later what happened - he scanned my N&E coupon, dropped the couple coupons I had given him and then tried to scan the N&E coupon again! I wasn't watching, so I didn't realize this until later. He didn't scan my $1.50 Vaseline coupon, but I came out ahead using that $5 coupon anyway.
