Look what I got for $3.87 at Walgreens!

I went to Walgreens and did two transactions.  The plan was to do just one, but the cashier told me that they would only accept one Register Rewards coupon per transaction.  Huh?  I had never heard of that rule. So I had to buy one more item for the second transaction, since the Register Reward was for more than the items I had to move out of my planned transactions.

Transaction 1:

1 Goodnites @ $8.99, receive $3 RR
- $1.50 coupon
= $7.49 after coupon
= $4.49 after coupon and Register Rewards

1 Dove Men+Care body wash @ $5.99, receive $6 RR
- $1.50 coupon
= $4.49 after coupon
= FREE plus $1.50 overage after coupon and Register Rewards

1 Encore garlic powder @ $.50 (with in-ad coupon)
(needed because the number of coupons, including Register Rewards, cannot exceed the number of items purchased)

Total items purchased: $7.49 + $4.49 + $.50 + $.90 tax = $13.38
- $10 RR from previous trip
= $3.38 out of pocket, $9 Register Rewards received

Transaction 2:
2 Kotex tampons @ 2/$6.00, $3 RR
- $1.50/2 coupon
= $4.50 after coupons
= $.75 per box after coupons and Register Rewards

1 Walgreens aluminum foil @ $.59 (with in-ad coupon)

Total items purchased = $4.50 + $.59 + $.40 tax = $5.49
- $5 RR from previous trip
= $.49 out of pocket, $3 Register Rewards received

Total of two transactions = $3.38 + $.49 = $3.87
$12 in Register Rewards received
