UPDATE – Only (1) of the $3 RR is now printing, but it’s still a good deal.
So, I ran out to Walgreens to try something else with the Gain and it worked! You can mix the Gain detergent with the Gain liquid and you’ll get the (2) $3 Register Rewards for a total of $6 in Register Rewards! See my post HERE for more!
***DEAL IDEA***
(1) Gain Powder Detergent 30 load $5 each
(2) Gain Dish Liquid $1.79 each
Total = $8.58
(1) – $2/1 Tide or Gain Powder Detergent, any- 09-11-11 SS x10/31
(2) – $.50/1 Gain Dishwashing Liquid, Any – 08-14-11 RP x9/30
Total = $5.58, Get Back $3 RR Gain & $3 Bonus RR Gain
= FREE (and you make $.42!)= $2.58 or $.86 EACH
Or if your store doesn’t carry the powder or you need the liquid for an he washer you can…
***DEAL IDEA***
(1) Gain Liquid $5 each
(2) Gain Dish Liquid $1.79 each
Total = $8.58
(1) – $1/1 Gain Detergent, Any – 08-14-11 RP x9/30
(2) – $.50/1 Gain Dishwashing Liquid, Any – 08-14-11 RP x9/30
Total = $6.58, Get Back $3 RR Gain & $3 Bonus RR Gain
= $.58 for everything or $.19 EACH!= $3.58 for everything or $1.19 EACH

These deals make me wish that I wasn’t so stubborn about only using 7th generation or Green works cleaning products!!! Have fun everyone getting such an awesome deal!
You can always donate these items!!! I like 7th Gen for my baby’s clothes!!!
Yes, the price is GREAT, but it’s not a product I will use.
Do what I do…buy the products and donate them to a local food pantry! You have made a much needed donation and it cost you little or nothing.
Could you have got the gain liquid on special for 99 cents?
Nvm…That was the dawn
I know I wish the Gain was $.99! That’s what my fabulous cashier said too – too bad it’s not on sale! LOL.
How ironic that your name is Dawn. : ) On another sad note, my store will not put the new sales on the shelf, so I cannot score great deals. I.E the toothpaste deals. Boo!
Thanks just heading out the door to go there!
i did this deal and got the (2) $3 RR plus some other coupons for Kotex, Poise, and Natures Bounty…yippee! Only bummer was the dish soap is $2.19 at my WAGS.
I got the $3/1 Poise which was funny! What does laundry detergent have to do with Poise, I’m not really sure. 😉
Umm, maybe the fact that if you need Poise, you might also need to be doing some extra washing? 😉 Just a thought! lol
I went to Shoprite the other day and got a catalina for a FREE Poise. Technically, Poise is for bladder leakage and is just like a maxi pad. Next time I go to Shoprite I will get it. Hey, its FREE !
I’ve gotten the Poise catalina coupon a lot recently from krogers, harris teeter, and wags, lol. But they do make a liner product and the small one was $2.49 at krogers, the next size was $3.45. So free/cheap liners! No complaints, lol!
The Gain dish soap was 1.79 at one Walgreen’s I went to and 1.99 at another. I’m glad it wasn’t 2.19 like dluvsfreebies store. It’s weird that stores within a couple miles are priced so differently.
I have the $1.00 off one gain detergent has laundry detergent pictured but I always use these on the small dish detergent I plan on using these they were from the 8-14 RP
so how many transactions do you need? two?
could you break it down into transactions so i know for sure 🙂 ty!!
Speaking of poise, last week a catalina for a free poise product up to $6 printed for me! I dont know what EXACTLY triggered it, I bought 2 Mead Five Star 1.5″ binders, and 7 Vicks cough drops.
My Wags doesnt carry the 30 load Gain powder detergent, so I couldnt do this deal. They only have a 40-some load powder Gain which was not on sale, it was $10.99, I had a cashier verify the price.
Probably the cough drops – you know, cough, cough, oops! lol Okay, I’m having fun figuring out reasons why they would trigger Poise! 😀
That is hilarious;-D
Thats great! LOL
Well I take that back, I could have done the deal with the liquid detergent, but as I mentioned earlier my laundry stockpile is pretty full.
Me too! I am way overstocked on the hand detergent from the Dawn deals! I bought 3 Gain Clothes detergent ($15) and used 3 $1 off coupons, paid $12 -got $6 in RR! Thats $2 a bottle…a great deal in my book!
Didn’t work for me! 🙁 I only got one $3 Gain printout, and my store doesn’t even carry the scrubbing bubbles toilet cleaner… Grrrrr!
Uhhhh, I did this and got a $3RR and a $3 Catalina COUPON for Gain, NOT 2 Gain RR’s.
Mindy – You didn’t get the Green one that I post in the picture? If you did it’s not a coupon for Gain (although it would be easy to think so). It says “$3 off your next shopping order. Thank you from Gain”. In fact it says “not valid on P&G products” so you can’t even use it on Gain.
I just checked again and you are correct. I apologize and thank you for your wonderful site and amazing deals. 🙂
Oh great – I’m just glad you got it and didn’t accidentally toss it or something. It’s funny looking so it’s totally easy to think it’s just a coupon. 🙂
Ok, this deal really just frustrated me. I tried it at one wags with the liquid and only got the bonus RR and gain was $1.99. So I went back to the detergents to check to make sure I bought the right thing and thought I did. I did use a RR from crest for the purchase??
Anyways, then I tried it again at a different wags. I did the exact same transaction and got both RR. But at the next wags the gain was $2.19!
Gain and Crest are both P&G products. If you used a Crest RR to pay for the Gain, then that might be why the 2nd RR didn’t print out.
I void my earlier comment, this is why mine didn’t print probably. Crud, this is why I avoid Walgreen’s unless its free… have to find cheap useful or donatable fillers, can’t use a rr from same company to pay, etc. Not to be a debbie downer but it’s so frustrating to a new couponer. Also, those who have clearly figured out the system usually shelf clear the two stores near me by Sunday after church. 🙁 I’m going to try again, perhaps someday I can figure it out at Wags like CVS and RA!
Yeeppiieeee!!! Thanks for this tip, I was so excited and this worked perfectly for me, I got 1 oral b battery tb, 3 downy, 3 gain liquid, 2 gain dish, used 1-$3/1 Oral B, 3-$2/1 Gain, 2- $.50/1 Gain, 1-1.50/2 downy & 1 $2 RR colgate paid $23 w/o tax got back $10 RR, $3 RR Gain & $3 RR Gain WOW!!! $.77 each if my math is right : ) Your the BEST!!!
correction it is a $3 Catalina but either way all Smiles Here
Kerri, can you tell me how to do it. I am still new to walgreens. Do I do it in sep. transactions?
Kerri can you break down the transaction. Thanks.
My WAG Gain is at regular price. Not $5 🙁 Just ran over there but cant work out a deal. 🙁
It’s not in your ad on the back page for $5? 🙁
Christie, the powder gain at my Wags wasnt on sale either. They only stock the 40 load size ($10.99) and on the back of the ad it says Gain, 24 – 32 loads.
My walgreens had the Gain Laundry powder at the regular price. 🙁 of course that’s the one I wanted!
last time they did the $30 PG all the gain was sold out. Turns out they replaced it with a smaller size (the 30 load). well at my store.
Just got mine, It worked for me perfectly! Thanks!
It worked in FW, TX…Yay! Thanks Christie
It worked for me but gain dish is1.99. Still happy! I use the lavender sent to refill my lysol hand soap automatic dispenser. Tri ky to pry cap off but works great!
I refill the Lysol automatic soap dispenser too. I drill a 1/4 inch hole in the top, fill with a funnel, put duct tape over the hole, and it’s ready to go back in the dispenser!
Judy,
Instead of drilling a hole on top, flip it over and insert the tip of a plastic ketchup bottle pre-filled with soap into the small existing hole. Once the tip is inserted, squeeze the liquid soap into the container.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FG8fU7IYd8M
You can also just pop it off and fill it. I saw many youtube videos. Im glad I did not drill a hole.
I just got mine. It was the last one on the shelf although I think there probably wasnt much stock to begin with. My dish soap was 1.99 also and the Gain was $5. I got two .09 cent pencils as fillers because I wanted to use a $3 and $2 RR. I paid $1.26 after coupons and got back $3 Gain Catalina/RR and a $3 Gain RR. wahoo! I love Gain products. Thanks so much!
Worked like a charm in Houston TX. Thanks for the deal!!!!
It worked in LA. Thanks !!!
Boy this is why I dislike the test market (richmond,va) we got the points for the spend 30 get 10 RR instead. Oh the points stink. Maybe the buy 3 gain will work though? anybody test this who is in the test market. Buy 1 Gain powder and 2 dish liquid?
i got this earlier and couldnt wait to get online and see if it was working for others.. extra bonus, for some reason the 10rr didnt print so they rang it up as a void sale to get it to print, generating yet another set of gain rr’s which my wonderful cashier went ahead and gave it to me! so I paid 15 OOP for my P&G deal and got back 22 in RR! WOHOO!!! Free stuff yay! one of my best trips ever!
Didnt have Gain det. at my place. Gain dishwash was 2.19. :\
I only got the bonus green $3. 🙁 My dish soap was $2.29 and I used the $3 RR from the crest toothpaste deal. Would that have caused me not to get the red $3 RR?
I’m in Orlando, FL.
Shari – very possibly. Because they are both $3 and they are both P&G. 🙁
Oh wow, I didn’t even think of that. I’ll try again at another Wags, hopefully the dish washing liquid will be cheaper there.
I didnt get it either and I didn’t use any RR to pay for it. Weird!
I only got one $3 RR :0( However, I bought it along with the Crest toothpaste with a $2/1 coupon so my overage helped pay for it. In the end, I only paid $1.40 in tax for all of it. Not too shabby!
Thanks for the tip Christy!!! 🙂 I got mine…
My store ad did not include the powder and I had them price check the only powder they had (40 load) and it was $9.99. However they did take the powder coupon for the liquid thankfully cause that is all I had on me!
I have another scenario for you! I read your posts on my cellphone after I did the deal to get the $10 Register Rewards and $3 and $3 on the gain. This worked fine in Des Moines, IA, but the Gain Dish soap is not part of the $30 deal here, so I bought 2 more Dawn to get me over the $30.
I went back inside and bought 1 Gain Laundry for $5.00 and 1 Gain dishsoap for $1.79 (I missed you bought 2). I got a $2 RR and then the green Gain reward for $2.
The powder wasn’t marked $5 at my store. It was marked 9.99 and I was almost scared to try it, but I did and it rang up $5!
Dish soap was 1.79
So if you use a register reward that’s from crest on another PnG product…you wont get the promised RR? What about for colgate? I want to do this deal asap haha…there are 4 WAGS with in 5-10 mins drive of me and if I wait til the end of the week to do a deal, the shelves are wiped!
Colgate is a Colgate-Palmolive product, so you should be able to use the RR for P&G products. You can use P&G RRs to get another P&G RR if it is a different amount, but it’s usually best to use an RR from another company to avoid problems.
This worked great in NC Thanks for the info!!!
Has anyone just bought 2 of the Gain Dish Liquid (or 3)? I’m wondering if you get anything for just buying the dish soap, without the laundry detergent?
Hi Linda: For this deal You need to buy at least 1 gain detergent and 2 more gain products. HTH
Still working in Pensacola, FL but stores don’t seem to carry the powder, but the liquid is still a good deal. Using RR’s from last week, I paid $2 OOP and got back 2 $3 RR’s. Thanks, Christie!
Did everyone received the $2 off 1 tide/gain because I didn’t 🙁
I got the coupon (Chicago, IL),but they didn’t carry the powder, and they only had 3 liquids. I’ll try another one 2morrow.
One way to check price and availability is to use the Web Pickup feature at Walgreens.com. You can just browse a particular store to check pricing.
For some reason, Gain powder does not show up after trying every Walgreens in town, but that may not mean they don’t have it. Of the dozen stores I checked, Gain dishwash soap is priced at $1.79, $1.99, and $2.19 depending on the store.
That feature is only available in like two cities right now. So that won’t help the majority ;D
yeah it’s 1.99 here in Chicago
I bought 1 gain liquid laundry detergent and 2 dish soaps. It worked out just as stated. Plus I received a catalina for a free Poise item. LOL.
I didn’t get the $2/1 Gain coupon, nor do I have the .50/1 one. Very frustrating. Need to move, I suppose….
I bought 3 liquid gains and 2 gain detergents and I got both of the $3 RRs and I bought some dawn and Tide stain release to get the $10 RR from P&G with it. I used a colgate RR and some other one to pay for it.
I was curious about the Crest Complete 2/$5 deal at walgreens. I got a $2 coupon off crest complete from the smartsource coupon booklet. I’m suspecting a great moneymaker here.
2 Crest Complete – Deep Clean for $5
2x$2 off coupons = 2/$1
$3 RR = $2.00 moneymaker?
The Smartsource coupon is from today’s 9/11 newspaper (the one with the dish network ad on the front with a yellow title bar)
I was thinking of getting 4 liquid gains….will it work to get 2 $3 RR back?
What are the requirements to get the first gain rr?? I know about the first one from coupon network… Thanks 🙂
Well I hope this is still working here in Boynton in a few hours when I go out!!!
Still worked in Chicago and Glenview Illinois on Monday morning!!
Bought one liquid gain (original) and 2 dish (also original\. I only received the OYNO. I went to two stores and did the deal at the second. No Gain powder of any size/kind. Thanks for the heads up about the OYNO. Im in Northeastern MD.
Will this work if i get 2 powder detergents and 1 dishliquid?
My store only carried the liquid laundry detergent but it worked just as well.
🙂
Anyone try this morning?
I did it 20 mins ago and it worked – got 2 $3 RR.
Great I am preparing my list for a quick run to Wags!!!
Went to my Wags in FL today and ended up with a $3 RR and a $2 RR (the weird green one), both from Gain. Went to a different Wags and did the exact same transaction and got a $2 RR and a $3 RR (the weird green one). STRANGE!
(I’m in so cal)I went to my Walgreens last night and no powder for $5. However, the liquid was $5 and I had a $2 coupon off any tide/ gain detergent. I don’t think it specified powder on it. If it did, they took it anyway! So I got the deal! Two $3 catalinas! Which I rolled over and used on the Scott’s paper towels! Thanks!
how many oz does the powder have?
Many stores have changed over to the 40 load box that is $10.99 🙁
which stores in MN has the 30 load gain powered detergent?
I’ve checked Lakeville, Burnsville, and Eden Prairie and have had NO luck at all.
I tried it this morning and it worked great! I bought the liquid laundry and two dish soaps and got two $3RR. I am in a test market also so I was very happy it worked for me. This week we only get points and not the $10 RR for spending $30. 🙁
I just tried it and only got 1-3RR back
It just worked for me 9/12 at 11am south DFW. They had plenty of powder detergent …
I live in DFW and have searched high and low. Where did you find it??
I went this morning and scored!!! I even did another transaction with out the dishwashing liquid coupons and scored another set of $3 RR’s. Even without the dishwashing liquid coupons I paid $1.58 for all three items, or $2.16 for 6!
I was psyched to find the powder in stock, but the registers and cat machine were not working. Everything had to be priced in manually. Darn it!! Will have to try and go back later.
Got both 3$ RR!! Yay!!
yay!! just got mine too. Thank you Christie for everything you do:)
Worked for me in WI! I bought three liquid HE Gain for $5 each and four Cascade for $4 each, totalling $31. Used my seven $1 coupons and brought it down to $24. Got back a $10RR and two $3RRs. So that’s $8 for the 7 items that I got, awesome!
Hello Dawn, my name is Daniela and I wanted to ask u if maybe you can give me more details on how you did it. I have never done it beforebut I am trying to get invovled with the coupon thing since im currently not working. I also dont understand when you guys say RR i dont know what that means. I would greatly apreciate it if you would explain to me how you do it. Thank you very much and God Bless You Daniela
I only received (2) $2.00 RR so it depends on where you live!
I live in South Texas and got (2)$2.00 RR too but it was still a great deal!
just the other day i tried this deal at a DIFFERENT location and both RR printed.But tonight i bought a powder gain instead of the liquid and only 1 RR printed (the funny green one lol) at a different location
does anybody know what happend ?
I only got that one catalina too!
Okay I tried to read through all the posted to see if this was address but there is to many. The first deal idea…is a little confusing I thought the Gain for $5 was only for liquid and the $2 off Gain/Tide Q is only for powder. Please clarify. Thanks
the 30 load powder gain is also $5.00
Worked like charm here in Coastal SC! I did 2 deals, got back 2 $3.00 Rewards each. Like some others, my local Walgreens can be difficult, but today was my lucky day. No problems, hoping this will be a new trend!
Thanks for all the super deals you post.
I scored 6 gain and two Downey. Got 10 rr + 3 $3.00 rr. They made a mistake on the first transaction and had to redo it, so they had 2 extra $3 rr, so the manager gave me an extra one 🙂
I only got (1) rr for 3.00. What was prompting you all that got two? Curious what the deal was?
Does anyone know When does this deal end? I haven’t got a chance to go yet.
I did the deal this morning (9/13) and I only rec’d one RR.
I purchased 1 liquid Gain for $5 and 2 dish soaps for $1.79 each. I only received 1 $3 RR.
Over in Oklahoma!!Only 1 $3RR, Sure wish I had gone yesterday as planned!:( I did do the deal once on Sunday!!!
I did it last night with the powder and 2 dish soap. it printed (2)RR, went back today to do it and nothing printed. I am in mcalester, ok. I am out $12 that I wouldnt have spent otherwise!
I live in Wisconsin and tried to do the deal on the morning on 9/13 and received NO RR. I was majorly bummed and had to return everything.
I just did the deal and only got one $3 RR. I guess the bonus is over?
i only recd ONE $3 RR this morning and the dish soap is $2.19 here in CT 🙁
I did this deal yesterday in Austin Texas, I bought the 30 load powder and 2 dish soaps and it worked great! does anyone know if its still printing as of today? thanks:)
Hello there! I live in Austin.
Where did you find the 30 load powder soap at? I have been searching for it.
I have not tried it today to see if if works.
hi anna,
wags off braker lane and metric blvd carries the 30 load powder, I think the one off south lamar does too! If they ran out have them write a rain check with the sale prices and rr taken into account, if they don’t have any now they will for sure after the sale ends.
good luck!
Hello Kaitlin,
Thanks for the info! I went to three wags in that general area, but not that one.
Hi, so is the deal for receiving both gain RR over already 🙁 ?
I just tried this deal again today and did not get the funny green $3RR…bummer! But, they did take my $2 of powder coupon for the Gain liquid!
i did that this morning in vancouver, wa and only got one $3. bummer
I did this deal today on TX and just got one 3RR, so i can assure you guys is not working anymore 🙁
Does anyone know if the $3 RR for gain dish soap still working for next week if so then it will be free next week. It will be on sale for .99 with in ad q.
According to Coupon Network it is supposed to run till 9/24.
Just did this deal here in Columbia,SC with the liquid Gain and 2 Gain dish soap and only got 1 RR. 🙁
Glad I got to do it yesterday,because its all over now!!But it seems in all of Palm Beach County there is no Crest toothepaste thats the one that is 2/5 for 3 RR anywhere all the stores here are out!!!
I just did this in Bangor Maine and didnt get any RR at all I got 1 detergent and 2 dish soaps
That’s exactly what happened to me. I purchased one liquid Gain detergent and two dishwashing liquids and didn’t get any RRs.
I guess I was a day late and a dollar($3)short. I had planned to go yesterday, but my Hubby called and took me to lunch. I did the deal in Lake City,FL between 1:00 and 1:30 and only got one $3RR, but the catalina machine spit out a bunch of Catalina Q’s for other products. I know I got a $2 off Listerine and some others, but can’t recall what they were. The Cashier and the lady behind me was amazed at how many coupons were printing out b/c I only puchased the liquid Gain and 2 Gain Dish Detergents. I may still go back an do the P&G Deal, but I was hoping to get my Gain products for .19 ea instead of $1.19. I did not have the $2 Gain Q.
It’s over in Central Florida too. Bought 1 gain liquid detergent and 2 dish soaps and only one $3 RR printed out:(
Went today and the deal did not work at all but that is ok I am getting ready to call Catalina to get it taken care of and hopefully get my $3.
I did this on Sunday night and did two transactions…the first one it didn’t give me 2 $3 RR but the second one it did. Is there anything I can do or did I just lose out on RR? I thought it might have been because I use a P&G RR on the first transaction but I used one on the second transaction and it still worked?
Well, it might be too late in the game for anyone to see this post but I was wondering if anyone from my state tried this deal in NJ?
has anyone tried above deal today as of 09/15 – does it still work?
None of the Walgrrens I have tried in WI have the powder…so this deal is not for me.
