Walgreens 12/6

This went really well for my 1st transaction of the week at Walgreens. I wanted to get my total over $25 so I could get the "Super Jingle Cash" $5 coupon, good next week. I've been doing my research and was really anxious to see if the deals work. I got my total actually to $27.56 (I guess I could've left off the free candy (after Qs of course, or the Carmex, but I wanted a little cushion.  I had read that your total needed to be $25 after Walgreens Qs, but this is not the case! Just make sure your total is $25 before coupons! I spent $9 in RRs and $1.15 cash OOP and got back $5super jingle cash for next week, $2.50JC for crest, and $3 rebate slip for the cortaid! (So, my net spending was a negative $0.35!) Not bad!

Here's what I did
1. 2 Cortaids @$3ea.(bought 2 cuz I had a good coupon) $6
2. Scotch scissors $7.99-this is a great deal-they are beautiful-in-ad Q for $2.99
3. Crest $3.49
4. Carmex $1.50
5. 6 Nutcracker snickers Xmas candy @3/$1=$2

I'm trying to be careful about how many JC's I'm tying up in SJC- cuz we can't "re-spend" them this week. We have to wait until 12/12-12/18.
