You can't use the earned RRs of the Olay deal to buy more Olay (rollig RRs). It won't produce another RR. Sorry, Teri, I fixed my earlier comment. Keep doing a few deals and then, with your RRs, pad it with a GC purchase. YMMV, so don't make it obvious.

I haven't looked at the deal yet, but will get try to give scenario later when I figure it out. Big Grin
Well that does throw a wrench into it, lol...I'll try to wrap my brain around it too, but I think I used up most of my supply at work today laugh out loud

I am going to have to look into this Olay deal at wags as well. I buy this for some of the ladies at my work. I work on a sub acute unit (Pt's are mostly PVS, with trachs and feeding tubes) and the patients are usually there long term. The hospital only provides the regular body wash that they do for the med surg unit. This body wash/shampoo is intended for short stay (a couple days or so) NOT for ppl that live there! So our staff brings in toiletries for our pt's so they can actually get clean. I bought a bunch when it was clearanced at T and the peelies still worked on them. I was getting them for $0.12 each I think, but I am down to my last 2 bottles, so I need some more! Thanks for the heads up guys!!!

I can not even find my little black coupon box. If you guys figure out a deal I would like to know. I do not do Walgreens, but I will do this. I have found 24 Olay coupons total. I will do all on Sunday...I will be moved into my new place, so this will be the start of "junking" EEK! it back up again..

I have about 15 BOGO suave bodywash coupons also. What have you guys been doing with these. I do not want them to go to waste...

It's wonderful that you all do that for them. I am sure the other soap is pretty harsh on their skin.. Don't want to turn this into a WAGS thread laugh out loud but maybe we can work out a newbie plan to get a good deal...

I WISH they would triple a 2.25 coupon..I didn't realize it sounded that way when I posted. They only triple up to .99 qs. There is a thread in the drugstore forum for Harris Teeter, lots of stuff posted to match up to q's. Most free or w/ overage. Around here Publix doubles up to .50 q's (so 1.00 max), same w/ Bi-lo, and of course Teeter doubles up to .99 (up to 1.98)...Triples start Thursday and end Saturday...great deals. If you have .50 sobe q's, they are on sale, so not only are they free but you get .50 overage on each bottle..lots of stuff like that!


So Trang...I just finished clipping my Olay q's..I have 25 of them. What is the best way to use? Can I buy three bottles, pay, get my RR's, then go get 3 more bottles and walk right back up and do it again? or do they have a restriction on that. WAGS is a bit far to keep going back for three bottles at a time.
Sweet!! Time to broaden my horizons.

Totally OT (but this IS chat Big Grin )....I hate Olay Ribbons with a passion, at least the green bottle. I got some free awhile ago and it felt like I was rubbing grease on my skin. I felt dirtier after showering. The other stuff may be good, but avoid the green bottle!!

can anyone tell me the best way to get coupons for free products? i always see all these people with them and not quite sure how to get them? do i have to e-mail the companys?
if so what companys have you had luck with?
I think most of them are tearpads people find at grocery stores and a lot end up being sold on ebay. I rarely find any tearpads in my region but others have a lot better luck. Look in siggys to for options to trade for them, lots of people have a link or list of coupons they want to trade.

I need broader horizions too, I think. I got the blue olay ribbons and I like it a lot it's supposed to help slouch of dead skin cells or something like that. You might like that one, I have not noticed any residue and it smells nice to me.

Yeah, when I first started working there I thought ppl were crazy for bring in the stuff that they do, but then when I saw what our hospital provided I totally understood!! We do olay for the women and old spice body wash for the men. Also, we sometime get them Axe (for the men) or various female body sprays to help sweeten their scents. Smilie It is a nice gift for them!! Most don't have that many visitors, so someone has to do it for them Smilie

I got the Olay Body Botanical Fusions in Restore last time. It's "scent of Rosemary and Jasmine" and we love the smell!! We all tried it on our hands and it left them feeling soft and smooth, not dirty feeling at all! Though, I haven't taken a shower with it though.

I really like the Pink one - it reminds me of the Bath & Body Works Cherry Blossom scent. heart

Not to get all weepy on everyone, but that is so sad, and it's nice to hear good things about long term facilities. I work at a Veteran's Hospital, we have a nursing home unit too. I love to go at lunch and just sit and talk with them. I really brightens my day!

That is the thing I miss most about working in a Skilled Nursing Center!! I love talking to the elderly!! They are filled with such wisdom and always full of stories! Most of my pt's now are in Persistent Vegetative States (PVS) so they are not able to talk and it can be kinda gloomy, but not so much to me! I still talk to all my pt's as if they were talking back to me laugh out loud I even sing to some Hide Teehee

laugh out loud Me, too!! I still love to hear my grandma's stories!! They are always so detailed! I don't think what I do is gloomy, but it prob is to others! I do find it so sad when we get in the young kids (14 or 15) that were hit by cars or other various head injuries! Those ones break my heart! Also a while ago we had a young mom who was my age! She was in a car accident and that one hit way close to home! I cried for the first few days of taking care of her. But then she got better and went to rehab. She is now home with her family! That helps to see the success stories!!

HUMOR!!!

Read these for a few laughs... Be sure to read the Husband's pdf 1st.



ENJOY.
That is too funny!!

I'm back home now yay!!!! I had a blast this weekend, but it still feels nice to be home!!

I met pretzels and she is so nice!! We had a freakin blast...six hours at Target and it felt like nothing at all!! I got a ton of great stuff which is currently sitting in my living room waiting to be put away.....

Soooo dh calls me the other day and says you're not going to like what I'm doing.....He says I'm organizing "the closet."

(We have a huge closet that is technically the laundry room, but instead holds all of my stockpile and caitlin's old babystuff.)

I said why would I care? If you can do it better than me, go for it! So on my drive home today he tells me that we need to get a storage unit b/c there's just no way to organize it. lol So we decided we're going to rent a small storage unit to put all of the extra baby clothes, high chairs, random crap we don't use but won't throw away, etc... and I'll have a ton more room for my stockpile!!!! So I got to pull everything out and I don't even have to put it away tonight, I can just stare at it all!! lol

I learned a ton of stuff from pretzels and I feel much more confident in my Targeting abilities lol. I took my sil to Super Target (I'm on LOVE with Super Target!!!!) and we got her $216.xx total down to $49.xx with a $5 gc which may not seem like much to some but may just be a personal best for me! I don't think I've ever gone that high, and I wasn't even shaking with nerves!!!

But I did want to strangle my sil when we were checking out. Thankfully we had a cashier that just didn't care b/c I swear to god EVERY time she would have to k1 something my sil was like why did it do that? I KNOW we had that stuff! I was shooting her glares but she just wasn't getting it lol. I told her afterwards uhmmmm yea don't ever do that dork!

I also met up with tigerz to exchange coupons and she has super cute kids!! and I want to thank her a ton for the coupons, I was able to do a great run with my sil and set my sil and one of my friends up with some good beginner q's!!

Hi everyone Smilie I just want to say thank you for the heads up on the walgreens olay deal. I've never done walgreens and I used to do CVS but haven't been there for 3 weeks now everysince the manager followed me and stood behind me while checking out ( I didn't even notice until the last minute because I was on my way to a birthday party). Didn't do anything wrong and actually only had extrabucks and CRTs at that time (no printed Qs) to get some birthday cards. I just feel they hate people who use coupons at that store. I was actually saving my 4 Olay Qs hoping that they will be TPC at target pretty soon as I am on my last bottle of body wash. Now, all I have to do is check my walgreens on sunday to get me some of these... Again, thanks so much for the heads up as I don't even check the drugstore thread lately... Smilie
