12/16 My Walgreens Trip ~ Profit $4.52 (with Sales Tax)

I started out with a $5 Super Jingle Ca$h from my 12/09 purchase and did 2 separate transactions for this trip.

Transaction #1

Goody hair accessories $2

- paid $2.20 OOP with sales tax

- received $2 RR

Transaction #2

Activ-On Joint & Muscle or Arthritis pain relief $7.99

- paid with $5 Super Jingle Ca$h from My 12/09 Trip View Here

- paid with $2 RR (from transaction #1)

- paid $1.28 OOP with sales tax

- received $8 RR

Summary:

~~~~~~~~~~

Spent:      $3.48 OOP ($2.20 from transaction 1 + $1.28 from transaction 2)
Received: $8 RR
Profit:     $4.52

Note:  I could have "earned" even more if I did a purchase of $30 (pay with my $5 Super Jingle Ca$h) to receive another $5 Super Jingle Ca$h for next week's purchase, but I decided not to follow the game this week for there aren’t many RR deals for week starting 12/19. I do not count Super Jingle Ca$h as OOP because I did not pay for it. Here's the transaction I "earned" my $5 Super Jingle Cash from buying over $25 before coupons. 

12/09 My Walgreens Trip ~ $8.61 (with Sales Tax) Received $5 Super Jingle Cash

I bought (No Register Rewards on hand):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hershey’s Holiday Candy 7.8 to 8.5 oz.  (2/$5 sale price)
1st bag    - $2.50 (2/$5)

*Note: I realised only when I got home that the 3rd bag of Kisses was charged at $2.99 (shelf-price) instead of $2.50.  I suppose I need to buy another bag to make it 2/$5 sale price. I learned to check receipt before leaving the store but for $.49, I think it is not worth the time and gas making a trip back. Oh well, I got really cheap Kisses, so no-complaint ;-)
