Walgreens $100 Challenge - Week 7

This week was looking to be a terrible week to roll those $12 in Register Rewards from last week. But, Olay came to the rescue with their mail in rebate: buy any 3 Olay products, get a $15 rebate! (you can find the form at the bottom of their home page, in the middle.) And it paired nicely with the B1G1 50% Off sale plus some good coupons that were in the most recent P&G insert!

Today I started with $12 in RRs: $2 from Poligrip, $3 from Huggies, $3 from Schick, and $4 from Gillette. All were from last week's deals.


I split the following into two transactions, and paid a total of $3.91 + tax.
