The Internet is full of genius moms who get tons of stuff at Walgreens and pay next-to-nothing thanks to coupon stacking and their rebate programs (which are actually going to be changing, evidently)..
I have had some moderate success getting good deals at Walgreens, but yesterday I hit the motherlode..
I had a 3dollar off coupon (Cantilina) from a previous trip, and I knew they were having a sale on eggs - I decided we would dye eggs as our activity on Saturday night, and then I would have lunch protein for the week..
So I grabbed two dozen eggs from the freezer, marked at 2 for 3 dollars, and looked around for something to bump the bill up just enough to use the coupon (needed to total 3.01 or greater)..
They were closing out some tostinos-knockoff pizzas, which The Hub loves for lunch - normally $1.00, on sale for $0.50 each).
I grabbed the last 3 pepperoni that they had and headed to check out.. First dozen eggs rung up at $1.25... interesting... then the second rung up for $0.75! WOO HOO!!
Grand total out of my pocket for 2 dozen eggs and 3 lunches for The Hub? $0.50!!!
Even the Walgreens guy looked up from the register and said "Looks like you did pretty well..."
Sweet... so, so sweet...
