That's great. I just stocked up on my husbands old spice body wash. I had a BOGO free Q. Went to Target just to browse and found out tyey had a 2 pack on clearence for $3.34 I ended up getting 12 bottles for $10.02, which made them $1.67 a piece.
ReplyDeleteCan you explain to me what a filler item is? I have heard that term before but what is its purpose?
ReplyDeleteAt Walgreens a filler is needed when you have more coupons than items in your transaction.
ReplyDeleteEx:
I buy 2 bottles of shampoo. I have 2 coupons AND a Register Reward. I need a filler item to use the RR.
Filler items should be this: Cheap and/or something you need.
Filler items are also sometimes needed at stores that allow you to have overage. Since they can't give you money back you need items to use up that extra money.
YAY Reagan! And, just to think...when you get famous, I can say that I knew you when...... LOL ;)
ReplyDeleteLol Alisa! Thanks! Funny you say that, because when this article runs it means that both hubby and I will have been in the media twice in the last 6 months. Our oldest daughter said "well Mom, Allyson and I need to do something special to get in the paper now so we can all be famous!" Ahh the wisdom of 8 yr. olds!
