Wags Diaper Scenario for week of 2/7 - Update!!!

They "fixed" it and it is no longer rolling.

Huggies is rolling. Rolling: When you purchase an item and receive register rewards (RRs) and you purchase the same item and use the RRs that you just received and it prints out more RRs.  Usually this does not happen, but it is this time.  However, your out of pocket is still less when you "rock" back and forth between the Dove Men's Body Wash and the Huggies.

Another update:  The Children's Activity Book Code is not working.  If you have the coupon in front of you, you can ask that they override it or call a manager, but you have no case if you do not have the coupon.


I did the transactions below today and thought it was a great deal.
 
A quick lesson regarding register rewards (RR).  You have to have an item that you have not used a manufacturer's coupon on in order to use your RR. Look at scenerio #2.  The bodywash has a mfg. coupon of $1.25 or $1.50, so, in order to use your RR, you have to purchase a filler.  It does not matter the price.  Either purchase something that you need that you do not have a coupon for or choose something inexpensive.  Some good fillers this week are:
Valentine Pencil W/Eraser Topper 5/$1.00 (use in-ad coupon to get this price)

Eggs = .99

Wags Foil, 20' = .59 with in-ad q
Reeses Hearts = .50
Disney Coloring/Activity Pads 3/$1 with in-ad q

Note about the Children's Activity Book.  This is a Wags published book and is very difficult to find.  It cost .99 and is well worth it.  There are Wags coupons, which can be combined with mfg. coupons in this book.  As with all Wags coupons, you can keep the coupon and do not have to give them to the cashier.  They are 4-digit codes and the cashier enters the code.  The cash register takes off the value of the coupon for every items purchased.  There is a $1 Huggies coupon in the Children's Activity Book.  Simply tell the cashier that you want to use the coupon in the Children's Activity Book and it is 2035.  Hopefully you won't have a problem.  You might want to double check before you do your shopping.

Another few suggestions: 
  • Prepare at home
  •   Print out this blog post and make any corrections, taking it with you and following it exactly. 
  •   Pull your coupons, put them in order and number them in the order of the transactions that you are       going to do.
  • Pay with cash.  It's a pain to swipe your card that many times. 
  • Ask if it is okay to do multiple transactions.  You might want to even go to 2-3 stores as to not wipe the shelves clean and not make the cashiers mad. 
  • Donate the items that you don't use (Super Poligrip).  Senior Services is located behind the coliseum and it is VERY easy to drop items off there.
Good luck and let me know if you have any questions!!!
