Target and even more Walgreens

Target has these 8.4 oz Gillette products for $2. Last weekend we got $2 off coupons for Gillette body wash and $2 off coupons for Gillette hair care.
If you purchase the Gentle clean shampoo + body wash you can use the $2 hair care coupon.
For the body wash you can purchase the above mentioned type as well as the Oil Control Face wash + body wash or the Dry Skin Hydrator + body wash variety.
I got all 15 of these items for $0 oop with the $2 coupons!

I stopped by the Walgreens near my house on my way home and found the following:
3 L'oreal Preference Dream Blonde on clearance for $2 - $2 Wags ESC = FREE
1 Sambucol cold and flu relief $12.99 - $4 ip - $10 esc = $1.01 MM
8 Dove trial size deodorant .99 each - $1.50/2 manuf coupons from 1-18 RP = $1.92
1 Reach prevent tb $1.79 - $1 manuf coupon = .79*
*there is also an in ad coupon that should take off .80 but I miscalculated and my total was already at .70, so I could not use the toothbrush in ad coupon without going negative, so oop .70.
I had given the cashier a RR for $1 with my coupons for payment(from last weeks excedrin deal)
So my total oop was .70 on gift card and $1 RR and this earned $10 RR for the 8 deodorants!


I then bought the following items using the $10 RR:
1 Simply Orange juice $4.29 - $1 = $3.29
1 gallon milk $3.29
1 Vaseline lotion $2.69 - $1.50 manuf = $1.19(earns $2 RR)
5 Band aid sheer 40 count clearanced for .82 each - 4 $1 manuf coupons = .10
1 Colgate Max fresh $3.29 - .75 = $2. 54 (earns $3.50 RR)
1 Reach prevent toothbrush $1.79 - $1 manuf - .80 in ad coupon = -. 01
Total oop : $10 RR and .33 from gift card
earns $2 and $3.50 RR
So overall for Walgreens
spent: $11 in RR and $1.03 on gift cards and earned back $15.50 in RR.

ZM edit: I was just informed the wording on the RR has been changed to "excludes dairy" instead of the old wording that said "may also exclude dairy". I apologize for my error in using this register reward to pay for my milk.

I didn't think you could use RR on dairy. Am I wrong? I would LOVE to use my 8RR to get milk today.

oops Sheila, you are right. I didn't realize Walgreens changed the wording again on their register rewards. They used to say, "may also exclude dairy" but now they say "excludes dairy". Thanks for letting me know, guess I will be using them to get bread instead!

I have been looking for that darn Reach TB, at 4 different Walgreens! Did you find it somewhere, other than the dental aisle? You are amazing!

Carolyn the toothbrush has been tricky. I did find mine on the dental aisle but they are still in the old packaging which says crystal clean(not prevent). When rung up, the receipt states prevent so you should have no troubles with the coupons. Good luck!

I couldn't find the 8 oz Gillettes at my store so it was a no go. Were they located next to the regular size ones at your store or in the trial size bins?

Where exactly were the Gillette's located? I found some tiny ones on clearance for $.47, but that was it. I did get some Shout for $.04 after the Target IP and Rightathome IP!

I found the Gillette on a side display in the pharmacy area of my store. These were toward the end of an aisle but to the side in little plastic buckets hanging from the shelves(I hope that makes sense)

I am having a hard find locating the Dove products at any of my Walgreens. I think too many people beat me to the deal. Is the RR only printing this week?

I purchased my Gillette at the Super Target in West Houston(Westheimer and Eldridge Parkway)
