Walgreens $100 Challenge: Week 2, Trip 2

Today was almost a repeat of my last shopping trip.
I have a Register Reward that expires soon, and next week's ad doesn't show a good week, so I wanted to be sure I was able to roll my RR into something I'll use and would produce a low out of pocket expense. Plus, yesterday there was a promo code for a free 8x10 Photo Collage! (It was only valid 1/13/10) And I'm using this as a Mother's Day present for my Mom! (yes, she'll probably read this, but I know she'll have forgotten about it by the time Mother's Day rolls around! Love you, Mom!)


Today I started out with a $3RR (from last week's Glade deal), a $2.50RR from this week's ThermaCare deal, and a $2RR from this week's Colgate deal.
