The power of Rebates & Sales!

Today I went to Walgreens. Even though I had a coupon nazi as a cashier, I still did pretty good.

First, there is a Johnson and Johnson rebate available. If you purchase $30 or more of Clean & Clear, Aveeno, Lubriderm or ROC you get $10 back. There were tons of coupons in last sunday's paper for them. Almost all the stores have some sort of sale on them right now. Walgreens is Buy one, get one 50% off. Here is my deal.
