What a day yesterday

I had such a good time shopping.

First, I went to Food Lion for water. I bought 6 packs. The first 3 for $3, got the coupon. Bought 3 more, got the coupon. FREE water! I may go "buy" some more today.

*****************************

Then I went to Walgreens after hearing the Nyquil RR was rolling. This time I bought 2 SWIRL. In the ad, it says the swirl are excluded from the sale price. I did buy them, but they did not ring up $5 here. They were $5.99. (some people say theirs rang up at $5, but not here) The RR still printed. This is YMMV (your mileage may vary) because the RR SHOULD still print, but if it doesn't for some reason (machine problems, etc) they COULD use that as an excuse not to give it to you. Anyway, my trip went: (IVC is the coupon book in the store. They put one out every month. It stands for Instant Value Coupon, and you CAN use a manufacturer's coupon with it)

3 Dulcolax- 6.99 each = $20.97
2 Nyquil Swirl- 5.99 each =11.98
1 Colgate= 2.99
2 coloring books .29 each = .58 (fillers)

2 $8 Dulcolax coupons
1 $3 Dulcolax coupon
1 $1 Colgate coupon
1 $1.50 Nyquil coupon
Nyquil IVC $2 x 2= -$4
Dulcolax IVC $2 x 3 = -$6
1 $5 RR from previous Nyquil

subtotal .02
tax $2.19

got $5 RR and $2 RR

I may go back and get more Nyquil today, too. At least if we get sick, we'll sleep good.

4 Gain dishwashing liquid .97 each, used $1 coupons ( free with .12 overage)
8 Yakisoba Japanese noodles .48 each, used .50 coupons (free with .16 overage)
