Be careful, if you pay for your Robitussin with a RR you received on a previous Robitussin transaction you will not receive another one will you? They don't roll correct?

Seriously. I don't know her outside of a few PM's but she sent me such a nice care package and clearly put a lot of thought into it.

Hi Stormy. PS-is your kid eating better? I found serving chix nuggets every day really helps.

That is a great thread. Printing my Qs to do it. I have some excedrine RR but they are only $1 any idea's on how to get the oop lower? Can you use two RR from different promos on it? I saw something about scrubbing bubbles, could I do a SB RR and then use that one and the excederine RR on one order?

I was thinking of buying some Durex there since they have the pink play but it was either $8 or $12 EEK! talk about sticker shock!
Yes, to both.

Your first question: you'll need an extra item in your order for each RR you use (or you can try giving the RRs 1st, before any MQs if you are careful enough to work out all the math in your head before hand; I'm just too lazy to do that.) Big Grin The votive candles are $.17 each this week w/an in-ad Q, so that's what I've been using.

Second question: yes, lots of peeps have been doing that.

If you've got the $1 RRs from last week, do a Robitussin deal and use 3 $1 RRs to take your OOP to almost zero. It would looks like this:

3 Robi = $11.97
3 votive candles (for example) = $.51 (after the store Q)
= $12.48
- 3 $3 MQs
- 3 $1 RRs
= $.48 + tax.

You get a $10 RR.

You could then take that RR and used it to buy your cleaning supplies on the next order. Again, you'll need 1 votive candle (or anything) or to hand it over before all other MQs.

On the WAGS RRs, they count as a MFR coupon. So you need to have enough items in your transactions to equal the total coupons. Cheap fillers are votive candles in this week's ad. They are 17 each, but you do need to have them scan the coupon in the weekly ad. Check the clearance endcaps, usually lots of very cheap fillers. One store today had tons of knee his for 19.

I'm stocking up on HP ink with some of my RRs. So say I buy an ink cartridge and want to use 2 RRs to pay for it. I need to add another small item so the register will accept the 2nd RR. Hope that makes sense.

This Robitussin is one of the easiest deals yet, since the IPQs are unlimited. Check the Robitussin thread wiki for a list of UPCs that work for sure. There are a few bottles reported that don't work.

I also got PUR Flavor Options Kits today, regular $29.99. They were clearanced for $7.49 and I had the $5 MQ from 7/6 P&G, so $2.49 each! Next store I went they were still $29.99, WAGS clearance is strange.

ETA: Well Scarlett, you beat me to it...LOL! Two answers are better than one though, right? Smilie

Quote from prdkld :
How many RR's will wags let you use to pay for something in one trans?
At my stores, any number you like!! I've used 9 or 10 on one order. If you read the fine print, it just says you have to have more items than the number of RRs you use. In our world laugh out loud it's more items than the total # of Qs you use, including RRs.

Quote from doublesided :
Who was the one who actually uses fur fighter refills? PM me and send addy
Me, I use them!!

Quote from prdkld :
I'm not sure because I've heard of people buying giftcards with their RR's and I thought those only came in higher amounts than $10. Unless you get Walgreens GC's and then buy other GC's? Am I on to it now?
Last night I did two orders: in each one I got 3 Robi, 1 Crest mouthwash, 2 votive candles, and a $25 WAG GC. OOP on one was $6.xx, on the other (lower value RRs used) $12.xx. Paid with my GC.

The register WILL let you use RRs to buy GC; the fine print on them forbids it. So it's totally up to the cashiers. No one has ever told me no. But then I always combine then with other stuff, so I think it's not so noticeable.

Quote from skynsam :
Don't forget the free/MM after RR Crest Pro Health Mouthwash at Wags this week too Smilie

And the SC Johnson 10RR deal!

If they hadn't cheated me on last month's ESRs, I'd be in a great mood today. Have to read the paper my GC was sent to me on (was sent to another adress Wink ) - but they shorted me quite a bit of money for being "over the limit" Confused So I'm back to hating WAGS and will do whatever I can do to make money there. laugh out loud
Yes, I've been doing in the Crest as well as I actually love that stuff. It does not burn at all, unlike Listerine.

Call them!! I've always gotten them to fix anything that was messed up on my rebates by calling. I know it's a pain, but it works.

If you read my posts above I tried to cover this: you have to do a different RR deal. Which ones are up to you, but the cleaning products deal and the Crest mouthwash deal are popular choices.

How do you roll the robi's RR to get more RR...
My advice for doing the WAG deal = don't attempt to roll your RRs!!!! You will confuse yourself unless you know for sure which deal you are doing. Wink

Here's an example of my WAG runs:

5 separate orders of Robitussin = $50 RRs

Next order:
Buy $50 GC + (4) 50 clearanced Chapsticks = total of 5 items in your order
Give (5) RRs
OOP = $2 + tax


Today, one of my favorite cashiers told me that she read the fine prints and can't allow me to buy GCs. She didn't get in trouble, but didn't want to take the risk. She was very nice about it, so I thank her for letting me know.

I went to the next cashier, who also read the fine prints after order and said that she wasn't supposed to take RRs for GCs. Then, she said the machine took the RRs, so I'm fine. It's totally YMMV on using your RRs to get GCs. Wink

Thank u Trang..this sounds much easier than rolling RR's....Will give it a shot with trying to buy GC..else I can always use the RR to buy stamps and envies...
