Thumbs up ~~~~~ Nice Trip to Walgreens ~~~~~

With (2) $5 RR, I went into the same Walgreens that I went last night and did this transaction twice

(1) True North Almond Crisps
(1) Listerine 250ml
Use (1) $5 RR
OOP = $1.35
Earned (1) $3 RR and (1) $2 RR

I was looking for some more drink mix, but it seems like people bought them all and an employee there said that they won't be getting any more of these 2-count packages. This store did not have the Photostamps either.

So, with (2) $3 RR and (2) $2 RR, I go to another Walgreens and I was happy that they do have Photostamps on clearance for $7.19 each. On the box it says "Including 20 stamps with Free shipping". So I guess each box is worth $8.80 in stamps They also have several candy bags on clearance. Here are what I get:

Tran #1
(3) Mixed Berry 2-count package $0.99 each
(1) Soft candy Mint Chocolate (on clearance) $0.32
Use (1) $3 RR
OOP = $0.57
Earned (1) $5 RR

Tran #2
(1) Photostamp $7.19
Use (1) $5 RR just earned
OOP = $2.84

Tran #3
(3) Lemon Lime 2-count package $0.99 each
(1) Nips Candy (on clearance) $0.32
Use (1) $3 RR
OOP = $0.57
Earned (1) $5 RR

Tran #4
(1) Photostamp (on clearance) $7.19
Use (1) $5 RR just earned
OOP = $2.84

Tran #5
(3) Lemon Lime 2-count package $0.99 each
Use (1) $2 RR
OOP = $1.24
Earned (1) $5 RR

Tran #6
(3) Mixed Berry 2-count package $0.99 each
Use (1) $2 RR
OOP = $1.24
Earned (1) $5 RR

To summarize: armed with (2) $5RR and paid $12.00, I got all the above items and still get back (2) $5 RR

Rather strange but I have been to atleast 3 stores and they all had photo stamps for 19.99. I even had them scan and they all scanned for that price. Is there any specific type that is on clearance.

Some store might not carry Photostamps anymore. They are behind the photo counter, so you need to ask for them.
In my store, there was a orange sticker saying clearance for $7.19 (original price is $19.99). The item rings up as $19.99, so the cashier has to adjust it.

NgO,
Can you tell me the deal on the drinks. I don't see it in my flyer. Looks like you are spending $3 and getting back 5rr and with no coupons either. Wow.

Hi there, if you buy 3 drink mixes (at my store they are $0.99 each, but some people got them for $0.49 each at other stores), then you will get $5 RR. That's how Walgreens program it
Here is a picture of the item. You might have to look for them as different stores put them at different places.

I've never come across that item in the store before..guess I haven't been very observant lately! Are they any good or are you just buying them for the RR's??
