Walgreens
- Pilot Erasable Frixion Gel Pens (2 pk) or highlighters (3 pk) $1.19 each, buy 3 and use $1 WAG coupon (monthly coupon booklet, will take off $3 automatically) and submit for $4.50 rebate (WYB 3, on back of package) = $3.93 profit
- Total was $0.82 - paid with gift card
At another store I bought three more Pilot highlighters, plus I tried to buy a $10 TGIF gift card using a $10 RR. Everything went through but then the register beeped and said I was owed a $9.18 refund. The cashier called over the manager, who said it was either because Walgreens' or TGIF's computer system wasn't working and couldn't activate the gift card. They took the gift card off the order and gave me $9.18 on a Walgreens gift card. Weird, but fine by me!

Would it be better to buy the Pilot pens 1 by 1 since they give a $1 RR this week? Are they the same ones for the rebate? That way you would pay $.57 OOP and get back the $4.50 as a rebate (hope I have that right)s
Sarah,
There's no RR on the pens/highlighters. There's a $1 coupon in the monthly coupon book that makes them cheap, so it doesn't matter if you buy them all at once. The coupon will take off $1 for each one.
Got it :) I just I just glanced over that part too quickly. Is the rebate form on the pens? I am going to have to get in on this one!
Yup, its right on the back. :)
The candy has to be 10oz or larger for the movie tickets!
stone family,
Oh no! I'll have to check my bags tonight when I get home to see if I got the right size. See what happens when I improvise a deal at the store? lol Oh well, there are worse items to buy by mistake than pb cups!
frugalsuz: I found 10 oz bags of easter pnb cups at Kroger on clearance...maybe you could find them at a local grocery store. Spent $9 and will qualify for the tix.
At any rate, I'm glad you posted about this, because I had not seen any info on the rebate...thanks!
Deb,
Ooh good idea, I'll have to check my supermarket soon. Thanks for the tip!
