Free Mentos and Skintimate/Edge Moneymaker at Walgreens

by Mercedes on March 30, 2009

Check the candy section of your local Walgreens store.  Mentos Gum is reported to be on Megasaver (special monthly sale price) at Walgreens this month.  They are on sale 2/$2.  Use the $1/1 coupon from 3/1 SS insert to get FREE Gum!  Don’t forget to check the tags at your local store for this special sale price.  Since it’s a monthly sale price it runs the length of the Easy Saver period and should end on 4/24.

Also, check your store for clearance Skintimate and Edge shave gels.  Some of the Skintimate can be found for as low as $1.79 and they still produce a $3RR, to make it a $1.21 moneymaker.

Happy Savings!

Enjoy!

So it seems that the $3 RR is printing no matter what type of Skintimate or Edge you buy? I thought it was only for the specific cream shave and energy varieties. This is great, though! I saw lots clearanced at my store last night, but didn’t buy them b/c they weren’t the “right” kind.

I went to my local walgreens…got the mentos that were marked 2/$2. The way they ring up is $1.49 for the first one and .51 for the second…I had 2 $1 OFF coupons..It took the first $1 coupon but it woundn’t take the 2nd $1 coupon because she said the other gum was marked .51 cents…I said but how could that matter…they were marked 2/$2 and I had $2 in coupons….Was that right???

Based on what I know of how the walgreens register works, that shoul not have happened. Were those the only two things in your order? Or did you have something else and were also using a RR to pay for that?

I had several things and I was not using register rewards…Also I tried to buy a reduced price skintamate and it did not print a rr..The manager then rang up the one that was on the display with the rr and it still didn’t print rr…he ended up giving me the money I would get from the register reward…UGHHHH

So I went yesterday and got the chapstick and the skintimate gel to get the RRs. When I checked out, the cashier split up my items because she had noticed that all of the RRs don’t always print when they are combined in the same transaction. With the way she did it, i got all of my RRs. I went today and tried again, but this time, there was a different cashier. I split the items up and told her I wanted different transactions and why, and she said that it wouldn’t matter if I put them all on one. She did this and I didn’t get my $3 RR. She called the manager to fix it and he said that the Skintimate was not in the ad, so he would not honor the deal. I showed him my reciept from the day before and the RR that printed, and he basically told me oh well, I just got lucky then. I ended up not getting the RR and put back everything I was going to buy. Did I do something wrong on my end?

Hi Chelsea, no you didn’t. Chances are the machine was not on or not working. You did right by not feeling pressured to buy those items. The skintimate had a tag at my store, may want to point that out to your manager if your store has the tags too.

Our store did not have tags on that item, but I got the RRs for the other items, so I know the machine was on. I’m just really unhappy with the manager. This is the second time I’ve had problems with him and he is totally unwilling to right the situation.

I bought an Edge shaving cream that was marked on clearance today because I read they still produced the $3 RR. Sadly mine didn’t print one. I’ll just have to return it now.

The $3RR on Skintimate does NOT seem to be working anymore; maybe it really was just a weekly deal?
