Target & Walgreens Shopping Trips

My parents and 6 of my siblings are coming down this weekend to celebrate my Dad’s birthday together.  My parents are headed out on their anniversary trip next week too, so 5 of my brothers will be staying with us for the next week.

Needless to say, with 8 additional people coming I had some serious shopping to do yesterday!     I spent the entire day shopping and prepping for their visit – while I did a major shopping trip to Sam’s and Aldi I decided not to post those trips or include them in our shopping totals for this month.

I did manage to score some great deals at Target and Walgreens yesterday though!  ;)

Last Weeks Walgreens Trip

I haven’t shopped at Walgreens in F.O.R.E.V.E.R. so I am a little out of practice, but I wanted to drop by last week and grab some free tape and Chocolate Peeps.    I thought my total seemed rather high to be getting all 5 items free, but looking at my receipt now I see that the cashier didn’t scan one of my coupons leaving my subtotal at $0.99 instead of $0.00.  Oh, well!

Please note that these deals are from last weeks deals.   See all of this weeks Walgreens Deals for the current sale and coupon match up!

Walgreens Trip #2

I went in last Saturday night wanting to score some more $0.50 Quaker Oats only to find 1 box left on the shelf.   I asked the cashier if I could get a rain check, and when the manager came to write me one she told me she had more in the back and asked how many I wanted.   I have had trouble with this manager in the past, but when she asked how many I wanted and I ended up walking out of there with 10 boxes of oatmeal for less than $6.00 total.   I plan to donate some of these to our church pantry.

Stay tuned…Target & Sam’s trip coming up!

Quick Wal-Mart Trip

I remembered last night why I rarely shop at Wal-Mart anymore.  I spent a little or $30 and came out with two lousy bags of groceries.   That, my friends, is why I shop the sales and use coupons at Kroger.   It IS cheaper!

Kroger & Walgreens Trip ~ 11.9.10

I have not made a trip to Walgreens in forever! While there weren’t any Register Reward deals to tempt me this week, I just couldn’t resist adding some more FREE toothbrushes to our steadily growing stash.   It’s always nice to have extra toothbrushes for those overnight guests who forgot theirs at home!  :)

3 – Reach Crystal Clear Toothbrushes @ 1.79 ea = 5.37

Used 3 – $1/1 MQs

-$1.60 Wags in-ad Q

= 0.77 + 0.37 tax

I handed over the MQs first then had the cashier scan their in-ad Q which was a mistake because the register realized I would have gotten overage so it only took off for 2 of the toothbrushes.  I didn’t even think about it since it’s just habit to use coupons in that order at Walgreens.  Oh, well!

With the holidays rapidly approaching, meaning that staples will be going up in price, I decided to get in on all of the can food deals that Kroger has as part of their Mega Saving Event.   These deals end tonight.

While shopping I noticed that Walgreens has Dry Idea Deodorant on Mega Saver BOGO Free until the end of September.    Well, I still had a few BOGO Coupons left from a few weeks ago when I was unable to use them.    When I got up to the cosmetic check out counter {and my favorite cashier} I told her all about what happened a few weeks ago and told her about Walgreens New Corporate Coupon Policy {which she had yet to even hear of…a week after it was posted on Walgreens site!}, and that it was fine if she wanted to call the manager.

I whipped out the coupon policy that I print out and waited for the manager.   She came over and my cashier explained what I was wanting to do with my coupons, the manager huffed and said that it was against Walgreens Corporate Policy, but I showed her the policy I printed online and her entire demeanor changed.  She took the policy and was back in less than five minutes apologizing and telling me it was perfectly fine for me to use my coupons.

I have to admit, I felt rather avenged holding that policy in my hands and showing her proof that I could use a BOGO Coupon with their BOGO Sale.  She would not have left me use those coupons had I not had the policy with me…so make sure to print Walgreens Corporate Coupon Policy out and carry it with you when you shop.  You never know when you’ll need it! :)
