Actually it was Mike's shop but it is awesome!
I talked about Register Rewards. One great thing about RRs that I didn't mention is the deal is not tied to a customer card so you can do these deals as often as you would like and you have coupons to match.
This week, the Gillette Fusion Gamer razor was on sale for $8.99. There was a coupon for $4.00 off in the 2/8 PG insert making this razor's final price $4.99. With our 7% sales tax, Mike paid $5.62 and received a RR for $6.00! He did the deal twice so he walked out with $12.00 in RRs, 2 high end razors and spent $11.24. He "made" .76 cents!
Stopped at the next store on his way home and bought:
Schick Extreme Disposable Razors 4 count on sale for $4.99. He combined the $2 off coupon from the ESC and a $2 off from the 2/8S to take $4.00 off (total legal and allowed by WAGS)
(2) Colgate Whitening Toothpaste Sale 2/$3 Used (2) .75/1 from 2/1S so final price each was .24 after generating a $1 RR for buying 2.
Thermacare heat wrap single trial size neck, shoulder and wrist
Free after rebate. Sale price $2.49
Revlon Creme lip gloss Sale price $9.99 Free after $10 rebate and overage using a $2/1 in the 2/8S insert.
After coupons and using 1 $6RR Final price is $11.15. Saved $15.73 And got a $1RR
Did another transaction:
Revlon Age Defying Spa concealer- Sale price $7.49 Free after rebate and using a $2/1 from 2/8S you earn $2.
Mike bought another item for $3.99
Used the 2nd $6 RR and coupon. Final price was $4.17. Saved $11.00!
So total for the day was:
Out of pocket: $26.56 9 items including the $3.99 item not on the list.
Technically OOP from the list/deals alone= $22.57
Rebate coming back is $19.98 on these transactions.
Two ways to look at the final out of pocket:
If I just received the rebate check: $2.59
If I got the GC with 10% bonus: .59!!!
2 "high end" razors
4 razor pack
2 Colgate Whitening toothpastes
1 Thermacare heat pads
1 Revlon Lip Gloss
1 Revlon Concealer
All for either under $3 or $1!!!! And I have a $1 RR to use on my next purchase!
Fun, easy and lots of technically "free" items.
