Walgreens Today - WOW I was in a for a surprise

I took a day off today to start getting my house ready for a weekend visit from a 2 year old!(let's just say my house is no longer baby proofed)
My plans was to go roll a couple Culturelle and Sheets RR and call it a day.
So I spent a little time in the store getting my first transaction ready with .01 oop after all was said and done and on my way to checkouts this customer approached me and handed me a $5 off $20 purchase catalina* she received.  She said there was NO way she would be spending $20 more today or tomorrow(the expiration date) and she didn't want it to go to waste.  So 12 transactions, 1 hr 9 minutes and $7.61 later I got the above pictured items.
*It seems a $5/20 is printing for EVERY reward club member purchase that one is not used on (one reader said your price has to be over a certain amount to get one of these)!

I took advantage of the following Register Reward deals:

Buy sheets energy strips @ $3.99*
Earn $4 RR

Buy Azo Cranberry $9.99
Earn $10 RR

Sheets Energy Strips $3.99*
Earn $4 RR
*some stores have clearance Strips(pictured above) for $3.19

Fiber Choice $3.99
Earn $4 RR

Colgate toothpaste $2.99
Earn $2 RR

Since at Walgreens you cannot pay with the same register reward to earn one (IE If you are buying strips and pay with the RR you earned from a strips, you will NOT get a RR to print) I had to get creative to make these roll with as little out of pocket as possible.  This is the run down of my transactions.  You will notice some are a rinse and repeat of priors, since it was working for me. The ultimate goal was to use the overage to get stuff I need (IE the light bulbs :D)
