Just a quick reminder of how important it is to check the price of items as they are ringing up. I went to Walgreens today to pick up a few items. One of the items was an Almay foundation / concealer that was on clearance for $2.29 original price $8.99. My intention was to grab this and use the $3 off Almay coupon from the Walgreens May coupon book so it would be free. I was also picking up milk and eggs to use up a RR that was going to expire. Any how the makeup rang up at $8.99. Thankfully my girls were super well behaved and I was paying attention at the register so the mistake was corrected. I had purchased this same concealer at another Walgreens last week with the same coupon and it rang up correctly so I was confident that I was right. Paying attention at the register saved me a $5.99 error.
If you are headed out to Walgreens the Almay deal should work like this:
$8.99 ( marked down $2.29) Almay under eye concealer / foundation
- $3.00 Walgreens May Coupon Book coupon
= Free
Thanks a bunch..I got two yay..with three teenage girls you can never have enouch cover-up. I went to like 4 stores and couldnt get any of the body wash...grrrr..People are clearing the shelves...
ReplyDeleteI will be very happy when "Extreme Couponing" is not the trend. I love my traditional couponing. I walk in with my binder now and I swear I feel all eyes and security cameras on me. No body wash here either.
