The cashier refused the $5/1 Applied Nutrition Supplements coupon in the June Walgreens Book. There is a booklet of coupons in the Applied Nutrition Calcium.

I had a goof up when I buying the Listerine Mouthwash. The Listerine Whitening Plus Restoring Mouthwash rang up at $7.49. I didn't make sure of the price when I grabbed it off the shelf. When I exchanged it for the Listerine Original Mouthwash, I got back $3.26 and a $2 RR also printed out. The manager handed it to me since the product was placed incorrectly on the shelf. Luckily I didn't use any register rewards to lower my OOP because that would have been a bigger hassle when it came to doing the exchange.

We stopped at the store around lunch time. Decided to grab some sandwiches and did a little bit of browsing. Grabbed more of the Gillette Body Wash. I just realized that I used a $3 RR from the last time I bought two Old Spice Body Washes and one Gillette Body Wash and I still received another $3 RR.

I came back to the store to get diapers. I finished my stock of W Diapers. I had to rering the transaction a few times because I wasn't comfortable with my OOP. This made me realize that the candy deal had to be both the same to get the sale price of 2/$6. Otherwise it was ringing anywhere from $3.99-$4.59 depending on the candy you got. And the end the cashier even shorted me $0.15 and when I asked for it back she said I must have dropped it. I gotta admit I was trying to balance checking out and making sure Asha didn't jump out of the cart. After looking around I still couldn't find it. I still think she didn't give the correct change. I don't care if it was $0.15 or $15, money is money.

Thanks to browsing totallytarget.com, I was able to find another coupon for the Dove Men+Care deodorant. It printed out with a picture of a Dove Body Wash but the wording says on any one Dove Product. Since last time I got $3 register rewards substituted from Huggies, I went back to the same store and used it to buy more Dove Men+Care Deodorants. I had to do some quick thinking because the B1G1 50% off body wash threw me off. It wasn't advertised anywhere. For the softsoap I got a register reward printed compliments of Colgate. Now I have to figure out if I can buy the Colgate Proclinical Toothpaste, will the register reward print out or not. I bought $37 worth of merchandise for $4.22 and ended with $7 RR.

I just realized that the Free Breathe Right Strips took off the whole value of the coupon and not the price it rang up for. Also since the deals have not been too good, this was my only trip of the week just to make sure none of the +UP rewards expired. I don't know why I do this but when you go shopping late in the afternoon on a Saturday the associates are already setting up for the coming week and all the sale tags are pulled off making it hard to figure out what's all on sale.

The shelves were being stocked just as I walked by the skin care aisle. I asked the associate if there were any Noxzema shavers and she pulled out four and handed it to me. But in the next fifteen minutes the shelves were all cleared out again. The cashier at the cosmetic counter was telling me how shoppers kept on calling or coming by to get a hold of the razor. Hot item this week :) Some ladies actually started fusing over the item and I gave up one. It wouldn't be the end of the world if you missed out on a deal. I bought $34 worth of merchandise for $5.18 and ended up with $15 RR.
