Walgreens

So, I'm planning a trip to Walgreens this week. I don't have any register rewards, so here's what I'm planning based on the ad good from 3/14-3/20.

Transaction #1:
Buy $10 in participating first aid products and get $3 in register rewards
Buy the following:
2 Band-Aid Bandages (20 or 25ct) $3 each
1 Neosporin (0.5 oz) $4
Use the following coupons:
$1 off Band-Aid from 1/3 Red Plum insert
$3 off Band-Aid and Neosporin from 2/21 Smartsource insert
$2 off Band-Aid from Walgreens Children's Activity Book (should deduct $4 for buying two Band-Aid)
$2 off Neosporin from Walgreens Children's Activity Book
Total:
Nothing but tax and get back $3 in Register Rewards, I'll also probably be keeping this receipt to submit for a $5 mail in rebate for the Princess and the Frog. The details for that rebate can be found over at Hip 2 Save.

Transaction #2
Buy Colgate Total Advanced or Enamel Strength Toothpaste (5.8oz) or Sensitive (6oz) for $3.99 and get $3.99 in register rewards
Buy the following:
Colgate Total listed above $3.99
Use the following coupon:
$1 off Colgate total from 3/7 Smartsource insert
Total:
$2.99 + tax
Use $3 register reward from the first transaction and get $3.99 in register rewards back

Transaction #3
Buy 2 participating cold and allergy products and get $5 in register rewards
Buy the following:
2 Tylenol Cold (20-24ct or 4-8oz liquid) for $4.99 each
Use the following coupons:
2 $3 off Tylenol from 3/14 red plum insert
Total:
$3.98 + tax
Use the $3.99 register reward from transaction 2 and get $5 in register rewards back

Transaction #4
Scope Outlast Mouthwash 2/$7, Buy 2 get $2 in register rewards
Buy:
2 Scope
Use:
2 $1 off Scope from 2/7 Proctor&Gamble insert
Total:
$5 + tax
Use the $5 register reward from transaction 3 and get $2 in register rewards back

So, the grand total for everything should be only tax and I'll still have $2 in register rewards to use later. I may also possibly have to use a few cheap filler items depending on whether or not the cashier enforces the coupon policy of having the same number of coupons as items. If this happens I'll throw add the following items into my transaction to create some overage for the fillers.

Nature's Bounty Vitamins and Supplements Buy 1 Get 1 Free
Buy the following:
2 Original Papaya Enzyme (100ct) $3.59 (or possibly a different vitamin or supplement that's cheaper, still on sale, and I can use my coupons with)
Use the following coupons:
2 $2 off Nature's Bounty printable coupon from here (you do need to enroll though)
Total:
$0.59 overage


Reese's Dark Peanut Butter Cups (1.5oz) $0.49 with in-ad coupon
Use $0.55 off Reese's from 3/14 smartsource insert
Total:
$0.06 overage

There are also two other good scenarios I may do depending on whether or not I want to spend that much out of pocket.

Transaction #5
Buy 6 Kleenex get $3 register reward
Buy:
6 Kleenex (110ct box) $0.89 each with in ad coupon
Use:
2 $0.50/3 Kleenex from 2/28 smartsource insert or printable from coupons.com
Total:
$4.34 + tax
Use $2 register reward from transaction 4, pay $2.34 + tax and get $3 register reward

Transaction #6
Buy $20 of participating Vicks products and get $10 register reward
Buy:
4 Vicks Dayquil or Nyquil on sale for $5 each
2 Puffs Tissue free with coupon below
Use:
4 $1.50 off Vicks from 2/21 Proctor and Gamble or 3/7 Proctor and Gamble insert
2 Buy 2 Vicks get Puffs free from 2/7 Proctor and Gamble insert
Total:
$14 + tax
Use the $3 register reward from transaction 5, pay $11 and get $10 register reward

These additional 2 transactions will give me 12 additional items for $13.34 + tax, but I'll have $10 in register rewards for later. So, it's essentially $3.34 for 8 boxes of tissue and 4 Dayquil or Nyquil.
