This past Friday I made 2 trips to Walgreens to take advantage of the $10 off $40 purchase.

I clipped some coupons from the August catalog, September catalog, Manufacturers coupons, + many Free after rebate items from the September book that are valid starting Friday August 29th.

( I plan to return the 2 John Frieda items since I bought them as fillers- so my total would be greater than $40. So I should get back $6.49 + $3.24 + Tax, then this trip will acually be a profit of $1.67)

Note: I received the Free manufacturer coupons from the company itself bycommenting on their product online and they sent me a those coupons as a gift. Pretty neat!

Total money spent for all items pictured is -$5.49 ( Yes, Profit of $5.49)!!! ( Not including returns which will increase my profit to approx $15+)
