Walgreens and Schnucks

I haven't been couponing as much lately, due to a variety of reasons. I decided tonight that I would pull some deals together and although I am still working without a camera, I wanted to share what I was able to get for free or next to nothing.

My first stop was at Walgreens.
8 bottles of Garnier hair products. I made $0.08 cents on them. I don't need any more shampoo and hair products, but I'll take them if they are giving them away.
3 bags of Russell Stover sugar free candy. $1.10 for all 3.
1 Orajel cold sore product. I don't have them but it is a money maker after rebate. Free+ $1.85
4 rolls of Reynolds foil that I paid $0.96 cents for. They were on sale for .99 and I had 1.00 coupons so I bought the extra one to avoid the dreaded beep.
1 Revlon lipgloss clearanced at 2.59 from 11.00. I used 2.00 coupon and paid .59.
1 Revlon lipstik money maker after rebate. Free + $2.80
2 cans Progresso soup .15 each.
Total cost before coupons
$61.50
Total cost out of pocket + tax
$19.87 used my $25 free gift card from transferring prescription
Will get back
$18.13 on rebate
Net cost
$1.74

Next I went to Schnucks. I was in a hurry as my daughter had a sleepover date to get to. I was going for cheap pizza rolls as she likes them and can fix them when I don't want to cook... which is more than ever anymore! They were out, sale is over tomorrow. Might have to drive to another store or price match at Wal-Mart - ugh.

I ended up buying 12 Dole Fresh Fruit cups @ 1.00 each. After coupons they were $0.50. Normally they are 1.89.
1 Steamfresh meal for 2 that I had a free coupon for from sweepstake win @ $6.49.

Total before
$18.49
Total after
$6.00

No pizza rolls. Which is probably good.
