Walgreens Run - Had RR about to expire

WOW! To be honest, I have not looked much at the Walgreens or CVS ad this week. I have been so wrapped up in Randalls and Kroger, I just don't know what is going on. Well, I was forced to look at Walgreens because I had 2 $5 RR expiring TODAY. I really didn't have anything I needed other than bread, so wanted to find a way to roll them without losing too much in the process.
Lucky for me, there is a great Neosporin deal and a Benadryl deal.
I had to break my transactions up because one of my $5 RR was from a prior McNeil(maker of Benadryl)

Anyway, the deals:
Buy 2 participating Benadryl get $5 RR back

Buy $10 worth of participating Neosporin or Band Aid products, get $3 back

Here is how I ran the deals:
2 Benadryl kids 4 oz $4.99 each
-$4/2 from Randalls monthly booklet (there is now an IP here)
-$2 ($1 x 2 from Childrens' coloring book-these expire this month *sniff *sniff)
1 Wonder Bread $1.99
-$5 RR
Cost oop: $5.97 and got back $5

3 Neosporin $12
-$2 ($1 x 2 insert)
-.50 (.50 insert - I ran out of $1 q and didn't have the IP)
-$6 ( $2 x 3 from coloring book)
1 Colgate Total $3.99 - .75 IP (there are higher value inserts)
1 Royal gelatin .69 -.49 in ad coupon (filler to use RR)
-$5 RR
Cost oop: $1.94 and got back $3 for Neosporin and $4 for Colgate

Total for the trip:
$5.97 + $6.94 - $5 - $ 7 = $0.91 cost

Frustrating experience at the Wags in Fresno yesterday. Cashier would only accept 1 Reese's Dark Choc cpn + in-ad cpn. Her explanation "It's just not right for you to use two coupons to get something free. I'm going to let one go but that's it".
