A GREAT MoneyMakers at Walgreens!!! $24 profit!!

Here is a great MoneyMaker available at Walgreens this week. When you buy $20 of Robitussin, you are supposed to get back $10 in RR's, but you actually get back $20 in RR's due to some promotions overlapping. So, if you use coupons, you could make up to $10 on this deal. Here is how it went for me:

Transaction 1:
(5) Robitussin @ $4 each = $20
SubTotal: $20

Used (5) $2 off printable coupons = -10

(1) Revlon Lipstick - $7.99
(1) Filler - 1.00
Subtotal: 17.48

$1 off Oragel
$2 off Revlon
$10 RR

Total: $15.48 (used 10 RR and 5.48 cash)
Will get back: $24.48 = $8.49 (Orajel ESR), $8 (Orajel MIR), $7.99 (Revlon ESR) for a $9 profit

Transaction #3
(1) Orajel = $8.49
(1) Gillette Fusion = 8.99

$10 back when you buy $50 of P&G products at Sam's

I love this deal!! I buy alot of our diapers at Sam's and those easily add up to $50. I'm a pretty loyal P&G product user, so I also often buy toilet paper, paper towels and Cascade tablets in bulk, so there is no doubt I'll hit $50 in P&G products.

Here are the details:
1) Purchase $50 worth of any P&G products between 12/14/08 and 1/31/09 at Sam’s Club.
