I used a gift card to pay for the OOP cost on each transaction. I normally wouldn't "pay" for shampoo or conditioner, but I have discovered that I really love John Frieda! Plus the profit from buying one Dulcolax covered the cost of all nine bottles of JF. I've cleaned out a great deal of my sham/cond stockpile lately because all of a sudden, my hair just doesn't like Garnier products anymore, and of course, that's what I had the most of. They make my hair so greasy! I've never had this problem with Garnier before, but it seems like every once and a while, my hair can't stand a brand of sham/cond anymore and I have to switch it up. Does that happen to anyone else?

Woohoo! I need to find some more of those Freida q's myself. I depleted the few I had gotten via trades at Target and Wags yesterday (my local inserts didn't have them, boo!). My hair hates Garnier too. I think it's those "fruit waxes" *shrug* They don't carry the Radiant Red at my Targets so I'm hoping to score some more at Wags while they're still giving RR's. So, you can pay for gift cards at Wags using RR's? Good to know...
Awesome job! I may have to do that one; I'm a fan of JF myself. As for the shampoo tolerance issue I've found that I have to stop using a brand if I used it too much- but not permanently. Kind of the way Mac 'n Cheese and Pizza don't taste so good towards the end of college when you're sick of them, but then come around again once you've layed off them awhile.
I've heard from a stylist that you should change your products regularly.
Jen,
I used to love Garnier, but I guess my hair got sick of it.
Annathy,
I tried it last year from a Walgreens sale and got myself hooked.
Jennifer,
That makes sense. I like to switch them up anyway, so its fine with me.
