I headed out yesterday morning like I often do to get some shopping done while there’s still a small chance of there still being stuff left in stock.  (Yesterday, this was perhaps not successful, as I couldn’t find a single Contour now that they’re giving $10 RR each, but it’s a nice idea anyway.)  I went to Walgreens and then got stuck at Kroger for much too long, but ended up with an incredibly awesome haul that I didn’t get a chance to take a picture of. (It was somewhere between 75-80% savings, I am estimating, and I had a hard time keeping all of the groceries in the cart while walking around because it was overflowing… for less than $37.)  Anyway, my husband called while I was at Kroger and gave me the vague impression that I should come home, so I skipped the other two drugstores when I was finally done in there.  I was surprised because he never rushes me when I’m out shopping.  Anyway, I pulled into the driveway to see my parents car sitting there.  They arrived about twenty minutes after I left, but they didn’t want him to call and tell me they were there. They never come over on Sundays and they have almost never come over without warning.  (It’s a 90 minute drive from their house.) So that was fun! I would have come home if they’d called though! :)

Total Spent: $8.14 (4.38, 2.63, 1.13)
Total RR Used: $61 (10, 5, 5, 5, 3, 10, 6, 2, 8, 7)
Total OOP: $69.14
Total RR Received: $77 (5, 8, 10, 6, 7, 5, 5, 8, 7, 6, 10)
Total Cost: $7.86 profit

I missed one RR while compiling those numbers and couldn’t figure out how I could possibly have made $17.86 profit, but while I was searching for the missing $10 RR (it’s difficult to separate regular manufacturer coupons on the Walgreens receipts from RR coupons) I noticed that the cashier apparently scanned my $10 Aviva coupon and entered it as $14.99.  I would have stopped her if I’d noticed it yesterday.  But hey, an extra $5 is nice.

Would sure like to find some Contours in stock this week.

What do you do with this stuff? Might try the Joint Juice and I’ll probably keep the Advil–wish I didn’t ever need that. :)  I’ll probably sell the rest.  I am pretty sure that I will end up chucking the Scalpicin in the clearance bin of a yard sale before long though. ;)
