Rite Aid

I {heart} Rite Aid- they are so nice, and coupon friendly and great to work with- 
the only thing that would make my shopping experience there better would be if they would get rid of the HUGE display of die cast cars in the aisle as to not tempt my child, which then leads to mommy not getting the cars, and a temper tantrum will ensue, but I digress... Anyway, here is my trip~

Winco

So, we now have a new Winco about 10 miles from my house, and since I went to Rite Aid, I figured I would stop by Winco too- They had some coupons in the paper to get Free Shasta Pop, Free Wonder Hot Dog Buns, Free Tortilla Chips and 4 lbs of Strawberries for $2.98-

So here is what I got~

Ok, so I should have laid them out on my table differently, and I can't find my recipt- But I got

2 packs of buns, 1 4lb of Strawberries, 2 lbs of green apples, 2 lbs of Tomatoes- on the vine, 1 bunch of Cilantro,  1/4th lb of mushrooms, 4 limes, 1 bunch of celery, 1 lbs of onions, 4 lbs of Long Grain Rice, .02 worth of ground mustard (awesome :) 2 lbs of Whole Wheat Bread Flour, .18 worth of granulated Garlic, 1 Hunts 35 oz Ketchup (the one WITHOUT the HFCS) 2 3.5 oz Tillamook Beef Jerky, 1 Wonton Wrapper Skins, 1 Shasta Pop, 1 1/2 Gallon Chocolate Milk, 1 bag of French Fries, 4 Limeade Concentrate, 1/4 lbs of Apple Gummy Rings, and Peach Rings (so much cheaper to buy in bulk- .44 as opposed to $.98), and 1 Dole Salad Mix
I think that is it- and I spent $30.18- but I feel like I got a bit for what I spent. 

Rite Aid

Oh, how I love Rite Aid- they are one of my most favorite stores, they are SOOO coupon friendly, and all the cashiers are awesome.

I got 4 Del Monte Veggies- on clearance for $.44 each, I used the $1/4 coupon previously available from DelMonte. 
1 Huggies Pure and Natural Diaper Jumbo Pack (Size one was the only one available, I will swap it when the get more in) I used my raincheck to make is $8.99. I used a $3/1 coupon that I got in the mail from Huggies for the Pure and Natural, the $1/1 Rite Aid Ad perk Huggies coupon from last month. 
1 Picture Mousepad $12.99- Used the Rite Aid Ad Perk coupon to make it free, and the $5/$20 coupon from Rite Aid Ad Perks. 
My total Spent OOP was $1.89, but I get to submit my receipt for a $2.00 Rebate for the diapers, PLUS that diaper pack was the 5th one I got so I get a Free Huggies Diaper pack voucher too!

WalGreens

Here is my transaction from Wal-Greens yesterday-


I got- 3 Gillette Deodorants, 3 Gillette Body Washes, 2 Jergens Natural Glow Moisturizers, and 1 Walgreens Candy

2 of the deodorants were $4.49 and one was the Odor Shield  Deodorant which was $4.99, I used 3 Buy one deodorant, get 1 body wash free (RP 5/16), and combined with the $4/2 5/2 P&G and the $2/1 Odor Shield Deodorant coupon from the 5/16 RP 

There is a RR at Walgreens that when you spend $25.00 (before coupons) on Gillette, or Old Spice, you get a $10.00 RR- so it breaks down like this
2 Deodorant @ $4.49- 
1 Deodorant at $4.99-
3 Body Washes at $4.49-
= $27.44- Minus $4.49 x 3 (for the Buy One Get One Free) 
Minus $4 & $2 (for the deodorant that weren't free)
= $7.97  BUT you get a $10.00 RR 

For the Jergens- they were $4.59 each, 
I used 2 $2/1 SS 5/16- Plus when you buy 2- you get a $5.00 RR
I got the Walgreens Candy for $.39 because I needed a filler item because I used a $10.00 RR and a $3.00- My subtotal was $.54, Tax was $2.48- Total OOP was $3.02, but I got $15.00 In RR-
Total Saved $45.87

I would have gotten the Bayer Aspirin, but they were out...
