Reader Dawn had an awesome week at Walgreens and Walmart.  She spent a total of $18 for everything in both photos!

Even better, several of the items purchase she got for next to nothing and intends to donate them to various charities.  Yeah Dawn!

Here is what she got:

Walmart $16.56

2 Frechetta Pizzas
2 Avery Mailing Labels
9 Olay Body Wash
9 Travel size secret deodorant (This was the deal I mentioned here)
2 Coffee Creamers
1 Butter
1 Flour
1 Brown Sugar
1 Raspberry Ice
30 Mentos Gum (Dawn how on Earth did you get so many coupons?)
2 Pringles
bananas
2 Comet Shower Cleaners
6 Renuzit

Walgreens was a total of $6 for all 9 boxes of Sinex and then she has one $5 Register Reward left- so a net of $1.

You can see the Walgreens deals here.

    Kim- you can check the link in the post. It is next to the deodorant because the deal is with a Secret coupon actually.

    I want to know how did you get walmart to accept so many coupons for the mentos cause I’ve been having problems with them even letting me get 10 same items with 10 coupons for those items.

    Tara they have a limit of 45 coupons and then a manager has to come over to approve. I have never heard of 10 coupons but literally every Walmart store seems to make up its own policies on a whim.

    yeah, I’ve been fighting it for a few months now, but it’s not going anywhere. Like the other day I was buying 12 bottles of the similac formula deal. They were priced at $3.84 at Walmart and I had 12 $3/1 coupons and they wouldn’t let me use them cause they didn’t have a “watermark” even though they were printed off coupons.com…I dunno it’s just probably my walmart, lol. I’ve been yelled at and told I’m not allowed to use 10 or 15 coupons there before.

    Our Walmart has now made up it’s own rule about internet/printable coupons. It’s 1 (yes, ONE) like coupon per day! I can have more than one printable, but only ONE of each kind. My mother-in-law’s store won’t take printables at all. They told me I could use as many glossy/newspaper type coupons at a time, but are trying to stop accepting printables all together. I offered them my driver’s license & told them that they could copy it & keep it on file–and if the coupons came back as fakes, they could prosecute. –they accepted my coupons that day. It’s a good thing, because I would have voided the whole transaction & left –and it was a BIG order. 🙂

    I’ve started taking ALL my business elsewhere–where they don’t treat me like a criminal when I use coupons!
