PERFECT DEAL AT WAGS!!!


Winner, Winner Chicken Dinner......
Softsoap Body Wash coupon for a free bottle just keeps spitting out!!

Today I ended up buying 25 softsoap body washes, 14 chapsticks ,13 skintimates and various fillers(clorox, easter candy,sunday papers, tea,baking soda)-I went to 5 different Wags- all close to my house-
Transaction 1-
1. soft soap body wash 3.99
2. 1 chapstick true shimmer 1.99
3. 1 skintimate shaving gel 2.29
4. Dawn soap REG price 1.99
on sale w/wags Q .99
5. reynold's foil REG price 1.59
on sale w/wags q .89
= 11.85
use $1 soft soap body wash coupon from today's inserts
$1 foil Q
.50 Dawn Q
WAGS Q (1.00 off Dawn and .70 off foil)
7.27 + tax- I used a $6 RR about to expire
OOP1.78
RECEIVED:
$3.99 Q for free softsoap
$2.00 RR for chapstick
$3.00 RR for skintimate
After this I started to roll my RR's
I would buy a Bodywash and skintimate-pay with free bodywash Q and $2RR from the chapstick deal pay very little oop...around 50 cents and get back another Q for a free bodywash and $3 RR...THIS IS THE TRANSACTION THAT MADE THAT LIGHT BULB GO BRIGHT OVER MY HEAD!
Then I would buy another bodywash and a chapstick and a filler over $1.01....after I got all my candy and clorox and tea, I started buying the rest of my Sunday papers for 1/2 price! I would pay for this transaction with the free bodywash Q and the $3 RR for the skintimate- OOP under a buck!
RINSE AND REPEAT as many times as your back and feet allow!!
I bought $199.42 worth of merchandise for $19.61 OOP for an overall cost of $12.61...that super duper spreadsheet figures this all out. My
OOP would've been $4 less, but the no sugar added Blue Bell Vanilla ice cream was calling out my name.
I decided to call it a day around 7:00pm-I will see if it still works manana! I can't believe that WAGS is doing this on purpose.
My picture has all my deals for today minus my 6-12 packs of diet pepsi I scored today at Target! I had a great frugal day!
