Scored again today! Went to a Wags I don't normally shop at (my car was in the garage, and the Wags was next door). Found Tootsie Roll pops (7 pack) for $0.32 each, and was just looking around. Couldn't find any of the other deals, but needed toilet paper, so picked up a Charmin Basic marked at $3.49. Imagine my surprise when I found it rang up at $1.09 ( a 9 pack)! Cashier let me go get more, so I took the other 3 packs (of course, another customer says "What did you do, take them all?"). Picked my car up, went to a Wags 3 miles away where they had 10 more packs. I admit, I did take all of them (hey, with a husband and 2 teenagers, this stuff disappears quite quickly), when a nice old lady asked if there were any more. I gladly gave her 2 packs (that was all she wanted), and we ran into each other for 15 minutes, where I pointed out the other clearance deals....last bottle of Snuggle at $1.39, and store brand oreos and fig newtons (the single box size) for $0.25 each, and wafer cookies at $0.60. Went to the last Wags by my house for the 1 pack of Charmin left and Gain ($2.29 less $1.00 coupon). At least we are set for a while!

I didn't have time to debate the issue since I was running late to pick up the kiddos from daycare so I asked the cashier to void the candles on that transaction. (I guess I don't understand, Walgreens would get reimbursed for the $2 right?!?! I had other items to purchase so it wasn't like I was asking for money returned to me) I found the Fabreeze candles on clearance but the cashier REFUSED to take the $2 coupon since it exceeded the value of the item.

I was very excited to find a bottle of the 7th Generation soap since we need to use free soap for my little guy! I also still found packages of the photo stamps on clearance for $7.19 at my store and Walgreens contact solution was on clearance for 82 cents. Thanks for posting this.

Today on the mentos gum, I bought 5 packs but she'd only let me use three $.55 coupons...I'm still not too sure about that one! I found quite a few of the items and also some Arizona Green Tea that was marked down to $.40 a bottle (bigger than single serve, but not as big as the gallon jugs). They also had some of the Scrubbing Bubbles toilet gels on clearance for like $1.02, but they were already out. It was a good trip, though!
