Almost Totally Free Diapers

Rite Aid - my card
  • Advil $3.59 ($4.49 reg price, 20% Wellness), used freebie coupon (home mailer, cashier took off $4.49) = $0.90 profit
  • 2 Tugaboos $0.79 each ($0.99 reg price, 20% Wellness), used two $1 coupons (found inside package) = $0.42 profit
  • 4 Aussie Sham/Cond/Stylers $2.99 each, used two $1 off 2 coupons (10/10 P&G) and got back four $2 UPs = $1.96
  • Huggies Jumbo Pack Little Snugglers Diapers $8.99, used $2.50 coupon and got back $3 UP = $3.49
  • Used $5 off $25 coupon ten $1 UP's, total was $0.62, overall profit $0.38
Then on DBF's card, we got:
  • Cottonelle Wipes $2.69 ($2.99 reg price, 10% Wellness), used freebie coupon (home mailer, cashier took off $2.99) = $0.30 profit
  • 2 Tugaboos $0.89 each ($0.99 reg price, 10% Wellness), used two $1 coupons (found inside package) = $0.79*
  • 4 Aussie Sham/Cond/Stylers $2.99 each, used two $1 off 2 coupons (10/10 P&G) and got back four $2 UPs = $1.96
  • Huggies Jumbo Pack Little Movers Diapers $8.99, used $2.50 coupon and got back $3 UP = $3.49
  • Used $5 off $25 coupon ten $1 UP's, total was $2.43
*When the cashier rang me up, she manually entered in the Tugaboos coupons for the price of the items. No problem. My total was a bit higher than I thought it should be, so before we left, I checked it and realized she rang in the second coupon as an item - see the Merchandise non-taxable $0.89 line? I showed it to her and she argued with me for a bit until the manager saw and came over. They gave me $0.89 in cash to make up for it, no apologies or anything. But I just realized I should have been given another $0.89. The $0.89 they gave me just voided out the $0.89 item she rang up, so the coupon was never applied to the order. Oh well, at least its not a big chunk of change, just annoying. This cashier has managed to mess up every order I've done with her. And each time its in a different way!

Didn't you get the $2 Clairol Family coupons in the P&G insert to use toward the Herbal Essence/Aussie +Ups? It would be a moneymaker!

Yup, I'm holding on to that bad boy for Black Friday. :)
