I had to run back and keep on getting filler items because the cashier refused the manufacturer coupons I had. Then on the third run I decided to have the store manager intervene. He gladly took the $1.50 Mr. Clean coupon. I was told by the cashier that she didn't want to manual enter any coupons in but the Store Manager did. My good fortune. Was trying to do the Pure & Natural diaper deal but there was none in stock. Trying tomorrow.

I told myself over and over again to spend close to $25 in the first transaction since I had the $5/$25. But I just kept adding things to my shopping list because of the $10 +UP reward. You don't ever wanna have them adjust it down. That's just losing money. That way mom got yet another lipstick. Can't beat it for $0.31. This one will replace the lipstick that was left behind in the car on a hot day. On the Swiffer WetJet box is a MIR guarantee. I get to try a product and see if I like it...yay!!! No money lost, just gained.

Was all ready to use my 10% shopping pass but the cashier adviced against it. She said although the diapers were regular price, it would be considered on sale since there was +UP rewards on it. Would have been another $4 savings. But I listened to the cashier. And then when I went to use my +up rewards to pay she said there was a limit to how many I could use. Why did I listen to her in the first place...ms. trying to know it all. Still happy that I walked out with $20 +up reward for next shopping adventure.

I mistakenly used my $4 ECBs first before all the other coupons so the price I had to pay got deducted from the tax.

Less than $0.50 for everything, I'm okay with that.

Walgreens doesn't have too many good deals. Also I am starting not to like having many filler items because the number of items being purchased is less than the number of coupons I use. Well I got Jell-O pudding to make a pie. Use two packets of Jell-O. Make it according to the instructions on the box. Pour it into a ready made graham cracker pie crust. Refrigerate for a few hours to let it set. Then eat and ENJOY!!!

Lots of cleaning products were on sale, including the moneymaker Gain dish liquid (after coupons). I got the scent mango tango. I now have a stock of Purex laundry sheets which I have yet to try. You get something free from Kelloggs after collecting five different codes from different flavored Poptarts. I make an effort to get the travel size Sensodyne toothpaste because after coupon it only cost $0.09. THE BEAUTY OF FRUGAL SHOPPING WITH THE HELP OF COUPONS.

My mom actually did transaction since she works at Wal*mart. She also gets 10% employee discount (excluding food). She is kind of getting better at using the coupons I give her. Usually I have to write what the original price of the item is and what the total of all the things would be about. Yay!!!
