Default I have too many RR!!

Can't say I've said this before but I think I may actually have too many RR. I was able to print 10 Zantac coupons at work so I made a lot money on RR with the Zantac and Theraflu this last week. Now I have to find a way to spend $80+ in RR. I could keep rolling and getting the month long freebies, but I already have enough of that stuff (and I'd just be getting back more RR!). Any good ideas on what to spend RR on?

Default grocery items

I would buy those items that you would have bought at your grocery store, so there is less out of your pocket for the week, of just treat yourself to something nice...new cosmetics...gift ideals for Christmas?? I'm sure you can find something to do with them, a problem i'd love to have, haha

I spent $25 of my $60 RR today and it really hurt! I got 6 of the Oscar Mayer bacon, BOGO, used 3 $1.50/2 coupons, so they were $1.25 each. I also got Midol (only thing that works for my headaches and I have tried everything), some facial scrubbies, a couple of bags of peanuts, 2 small hand sanitizers (I will refill with the larger Purrell container when they are empty), and envelopes. All that for $1.70 OOP ($1.33 I think was tax).
Some things I would buy ahead would be bread, maybe greeting cards if you have birthdays coming up, Christmas stocking stuffers. If you need a new coffee pot or rice cooker. Snuggies for everyone? For filler I get pudding 3 for $1, or Ramen noodles, Act II popcorn is $0.25/pack this week.
I also get my newspapers at Walgreens but I buy them Saturday early and use my RR on those.

IF you can't find anything to use them on and it's overwhelming just purchase some food items or go with the gift option. Now is a great time to splurge a little and not feel the sting in your pocketbook...spoil yourself, you deserve it. How about purchasing something that you would never purchase for yourself?

I used some of mine on the phillips sonic toothbrush heads. They're expensive but necessary, plusI'm going to load up on diapers (walgreens are buy 1 get 2nd 50% of). I've $100 rr so I'll have diapers until DS is practically in college!!!!!! Is an surplus of diapers sufficient for DH to agree to another baby?!?

They have the Coke 12 packs 4 for $10 this week, that's what I'll be using some of my excess on.
