Ok I may have gone a little overboard, but thats normal.
At Walgreens they have a Pepsi/FritoLay Deal. Buy $20 of FritoLay/Pepsi and get $10 Register Rewards.
Bags of chips are on sale for $2 each, Pepsi $3 per 12 pack. Using the chips as an example (because the math is easy) Buying 10 bags of chips costs $20, in your first purchase -and you get back $10 in register rewards. After that, each bag of chips is $1 because you use the $10 register rewards when you make the purchase — AND — you get another $10 in register rewards.
Now the key to this deal is to spend $20 the first time. When you get the Register Reward buy another item that provides rewards – The easiest is JOINT Juice. Its $10 and gives back $10 in register rewards.
Why do that – Because you can’t use the $10 Pepsi/FritoLay register reward to do the deal again. So, you need to turn the register rewards into a different kind of reward – in this case Joint Juice.
Now that you have the Joint Juice reward in hand go buy more FritoLay Chips and Pepsi – Try to buy as close to $20 as possible. Then rinse and repeat ….. or should I just say do it again.
To fun a little fun with it you can use the “PASS BACK” strategy as described in the Frugal Factor!
There are several items that are FREE with register rewards this week, just check the ad. I used the Joint Juice, Blink Eye Drops combined with Vitamin Schtick, and Scalpacin.
The cashier sometimes looked puzzles when I would spend $10, and use a $10 register reward — and another $10 in rewards would print.
Some time I would say — “ I keep getting these coupons, this is may last on and I am out” then I pay — they start to give the the change and the little register rewards machine prints another coupon….. — then ” Just when I am out, they drag me back in again” Then I go out to the car – Unload – and go back into Walgreens – and do it again!
What did I get:
51 Bags of chips
18 Cases of Diet Pepsi
1 Case of Pepsi max
15 2 Liter Bottles of Pepsi
5 boxes of Joint Juice FREE after Register Rewards
2 Blink Eye Drops FREE after Register Rewards
2 Vitamin Schticks FREE after Register Rewards
1 Salpacin FREE after Register Rewards
1 Hand sanitizer
6 Bottles of Fuze – $1 off coupon in store
Now I just tneed to ration these chips off so they last!
