2/$8 Ringing oddly on H&S

Be aware that the first Head & Shoulders rings up at $1.71 so if you use the B1G1 coupon the cashier will likely enter that amount.But if you ask nicely and share a coupon s/he may just take off $3.40 (half the price for 2 w/disc.). It worked for me!

The $2 RR is printing though! Looks like it's triggered by quantity!

Buy (2) $6.80 w/disc.   -B1G1F MQ

Get $2 RR (like paying $1.40 each!)

Remember, the coupon is good today only (7/5 P&G)

Irish Spring RR triggered by quantity!

Yes!! I was very excited to find out today that the Irish Spring Register Reward works with the associate discount!

Buy 2/$5 Irish Spring body wash or depodorant ($4.25 with the discount)

Use 2 $.50 off coupons from last week's SS for body wash or $1 off for deodorant

Get $4 RR

$.10 for body wash or $.90 Money Maker for deodorant (plus tax of course)

Get paid to answer surveys!

There are new openings available as survey takers for PineCone Research. I personally receive surveys a couple to a few times a week and most are under 5 minutes in length, plus you will receive compensation in the form of $3 (cash, MasterCard debit, or PayPal). I got to try and keep a nice product once so far and it was easy.

In my opinion, this is the best company to take surveys for because they compensate the best and enter you in monthly sweepstakes. Check it out! 

Get ready for $1 Cottonelle 12 packs 7/31 only!

Grab at least a couple Cottonelle printable coupons from their website--you will need an even number. You will need one computer per coupon that you want to print since it only allows one per household, but keep in mind there was a $.75 off coupon in SS a couple weeks back.

There is an ongoing Cottonelle RR deal advertised in some stores but primarily on CouponNetwork.com so verify online to make sure your local store is included. The deal is buy 2 Cottonelle 12 packs get $3.50 in RR, buy 3 get $4.50 and is triggered by quantity so you can take advantage of it in combination with your discount.

On 7/31 buy: (2) $5.00 Cottonelle 12 packs ($4.25 w/disc.)
Use: (2) $.50 printable coupon
and $1 off August monthly coupon (code: 5614) takes off $2*
Prints: $3.50 RR

$2 plus tax for 2 packs after RR and coupons!

If you have the newspaper coupons, it's $1.50 for 2!

*Coupons from the monthly coupon booklet usually take off the full amount, but occasionally the discount is taken off the coupon.  When the $1 off Cottonelle coupon was available last May it took off $1 per 12 pack.

Scunci RR triggered by $ amount -YMMV

For those that have not tried it out yet, the 2/$3 Scunci 18ct hair binder get $3 RR is triggered by $ amount, not quantity.

If this doesn't make sense to you, unfortunately, it means that when you buy the Scunci with the associate discount you will *not* get the Register Reward but you should without the discount. If the manager at the store you're shopping at does not know about RR being triggered by dollar amount or is simply a cool manager, he/she will print it off anyways upon request. However, even if you email Catalina asking for your Register Reward they will not send it based on how it is programmed. Good luck!

This weeks Money Makers and Freebies....

*W razor: pay $3.19 get $4 RR
*Infusium: pay $4.09 after $1 coupon from SS 7/10 get $4 RR
*Evenflow Nursing Pads: Pay $3.75 after $.50 coupon inside top of box get $4 RR

Nooo! Precise $5 is *gone*!

Our lovely Precise overage scenarios are no more :(, the $5 coupon has been replaced with a $2 coupon on the Precise site. Still, if you have back pain especially from muscle tension this stuff works wonders.

Stay tuned next week for a possible *crossing fingers* money maker on Carefree Actifresh (hint, go to the Carefree site and print some $.50 off coupons after registering.)

**UPDATE: That was one crazy week and my store ran out! Sorry, count on a quick update next time.

Cottonelle Deal may not print *Updated*

Some of you may have been gearing up to buy cottonelle:

CouponNetwork.com says you should receive $3.50 RR wyb 2 or $4.50 wyb 3 (login to check if it is valid for your area) but wildforwags.com is reporting that this may be hit or miss.  It did not print for me in MN.  Maybe they will fix this, as it should not be affected by the Walgreens discount.

I will update as I get feedback from Catalina.

***I emailed Catalina and they are mailing me my $3.50 RR! Also, it is printing at one of my Wags so I don't know if it is fixed or if it was simply working the whole time at that location.  Just make sure you double check rumored Register Rewards on Coupon Network---not all of them will be listed, but it makes it less of a gamble ;)

The scoop on Wags coupons

Before you head out to score some monster deals, you will need to know how Walgreens coupons come off.

As a general rule, you the discount gets taken off after the coupon. So, on a $10 non-Walgreens brand item with a $1 coupon, you pay $7.65 instead of $7.50 as you might expect. On Walgreens brand item at $10 with a $1 coupon you would pay $7.20 instead of the expected $7.00.
Another way to look at it is that the discount gets taken off the item and the coupon. So, for the $10 non-Walgreens item the item is reduced to $8.50 with the discount and the coupon is reduced to $.85. On a Wags item at $10 with the $1 coupon, the item would be reduced to $8.00 and the coupon would be reduced to $.80. This has been the case with the Infant Care booklet and in-ad coupons for me so far.

But this is only the general rule! So far, I have found that coupons from the monthly coupon booklet (Instant value coupons or IVC's) do not follow this rule--you get the full value off!

Free Collage!

Get a free collage with code FREEBIE1 and another with code FREEBIE through the nineteenth.

Tip: In my experience, this work as great filler items but your cashier will likely ring it faster than you can instruct them to add it to your transaction.  Tell the cashier you intend to use it as a filler before they even grab it.  Otherwise, they will begin ringing without your discount and will not be able to go back and add it!
