Walgreens- Really GREAT Money Maker this week

I hit up Walgreens at lunchtime since I heard there was an easy $5 moneymaker. Threw in a couple other deals to roll my register rewards from prior weeks and made a goof too(it happens)
I did 5 transactions so I wouldn't have to make multiple trips this week, although, I might go back to get some Prevacid later in the week.
Anyway, the Triaminic strips are the best deal this week. You purchase two at $5 each. We got $3/1 coupons in this past weekends paper. Combining that with the Healthy Savings booklet coupon of $2 off each, you get them FREE and earn a $5 Register Reward.
Here is my breakdown to show the other deals I mixed in:

Trans #1:
2 Triscuits $2 each - 2 $1 insert 11-8SS
3 Wheat Thins $2 each - 2 $1 insert 11-8SS - $2.50($1/2 Diabetes booklet coupon) = $2.50
2 Theraflu $5 each - $3/2 insert 10-18 SS - $4 Healthy Savings booklet = $3
2 Triaminic $5 each - 2 $3 insert 12-6 SS -$4 Healthy Savings booklet = $0
2 Activity Pads $1 - .33 in ad coupon = .67
-$5 and $1 Register Reward
Out of pocket : $.17

$3 for Theraflu (must buy 2)
$5 for Triaminic (must buy 2)

Trans #2:
2 Theraflu $5 each - $3/2 insert 10-18SS - $4 Healthy Savings booklet = $3
2 Triaminic $5 each - 2 $3 insert 12-6SS - $4 Healthy Savings booklet = $0
4 Zooth toothbrush $3.19 each - 2 $1/2 insert 11-29PG -$4 Coloring book coupon = $6.76
3 Gift sacks .29 each - .48 in ad coupon = .39
- 2 $5 Register Rewards

1 Gift sack .29 - .16 in ad coupon = .13
-$5 Register Reward
Out of pocket: $.13

Earned $3 for Theraflu and $5 for Triaminic

*I also stopped on my way home to buy 5 more Wheat Thins/Triscuits so I can do the Jingle your Holiday rebate for $10. I didn't picture that transaction, but I used a $4 Register Reward and .23 oop and earned another $5 and $3(for Triaminic and Wheat Thins)

So out of pocket: $6.17 + $10.15 + $3.39 + $5.11 + $5.13 + $4.23 + .44 stamp = $34.62 ($1.18 of real money)

Earned: $11 + $13 + $8 + $8 + $8 + $8 = $56
Profit of $21.38

***Another note: At the first store, I picked up some Triaminic Allergy Strips and they did NOT ring up on sale, so you may want to watch them ring you up if you try to get those!

Do you know if there is anywhere we can still get the Healthy Savings booklets? When and where did you get yours? Thanks =)

I found mine in the pharmacy several months ago. They might still have them at some stores, but I am not sure.
