does anyone see a problem with this one?:
4 Gillette Deodorants
2 Old Spice Fresh Deodorants
1 Gillette Body Wash
Use:
2 $4/2 Gillette
1 BOGO Old Spice
1 Buy Gillette Deodorant, get Gillette body wash.
I guess I’m wondering if I can buy 4 Gillette Deodorants total and use the 2 $4/2 and the buy deodorant, get body wash in the same xaction?
Rather off-topic ~ but just wanted to say I love your cute pics/graphics that begin your entries. Very creative!
How can you get 2 register rewards back since it’s the same company?
Am I confused?
I did this deal yesterday…
6 gillette deodorants 4.49 each
5 gillette body washes 4.49 each
total 49.39 + tax
used 5 buy deo get body wash free – 22.45
used 3 $4.00/2 gillette q’s
and a $10 RR
total OOP 8.65 got back $10 RR and $4.50 RR
if you have enough you can use 6 buy deo get body wash Q’s I only had 5.
so y it the 4.50 rr coming out? it it cause of the body wash thats on sale?
I did the deal above but made ONE change:
4 – Old Spice Deodorant $4.99 each
1 – Old Spice Deodorant $3.99
1 – Old Spice Body Wash $4.49
1 – Gillette Shave Gel $1.79
Total = $30.23
I used coupons showing above!
I used 1 $10 rr (neut) and 1 $5 rr (ReFresh)
AND got back 1 $10 rr and 1 $4.50 rr
Don’t know where to post this but can anyone tell me if there is toilet paper close to the quality of Charmin? I’m willing to switch to another brand but love the thickness of Charmin. thanks!
Do the exact same scenario above but don’t include the shave gel and it’ll be $1.03 profit.
Thank you so much for posting this!!!! I was able to use 2 of the $1/2 and it went through!

Hi Brian – Nice to see you and thanks again for the scenario, it’s nice to be able to be able to thank you by name, vs. partial e-mail address!
Adri-
I don’t think you can do it the way you mentioned, but I’m not totally sure. However, I’ve got plenty of old spice coupons. I’ll be happy to mail you a couple if you think you would get it in time. I’m in Portland, OR. Just comment to let me know. I just like to pay it forward.
My store wouldn’t allow me to use the coupon on the shave gel–my clerk insisted the 1.7 oz size is the trial size so I couldn’t use my coupon.
FVH! You are the sweetest, thank you! I was able to use a scenario with two of the old spice coupons, though, so I was still able to do the deal! It was just the one with the three bogos that I wouldn’t have been able to do. Thank you so much!
where’s the $4.50 RR coming from?
nevermind…$4.50from the body wash. And the $10 from spending $25 on old spice/etc…right
Hey Christie! Here’s my plan for a $2.53 money maker!
(1) Gillette Odor Shield Deodorant @ $4.99
(1) Gillette Body Wash @ $4.49
(2) Gillette Fusion Shave Gel @ $4.29 = $8.58
(4) Old Spice Fresh Deodorant @ $2.99 = $11.96
= $30.02
-Gillette Odor Shield Body Wash, any (1) Free WYB (1) Gillette Clinical Odor Shield AP/Deo (ETS) – 05-02-10 PG
-$1/1 Gillette Fusion Shave Gel – 06/06 PG x 2
-Get Old Spice Fresh Collection AP/Deo any of equal or lesser value FREE wyb any Old Spice Body Wash or Fresh Collection AP/Deo (1.7 oz+) – 06-06-10 PG x 2
-$10 RR
-$5 RR (for body wash)
Final Price: $2.53 Money Maker!
Oops! Rounded the body wash RR – it’s a $2.03 money maker 🙂
hey denise there is also a $2 off any odor shield deo. out there to make your deal even sweeter a $4.03 money maker!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Christie, can you ‘write out’ Denise’s scenario, I’m having trouble with the total and can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. This is what I get, deducting qs in order written in her comment – not saying she’s wrong, just don’t understand it. Thanks.
30.02
-4.49 body wash free wyb
-2.00 gel – 2x 1.00
-2.99 fresh wyb
-2.99 frsh wyb
=17.55 ?
Kim, I was confused too. I couldn’t add the numbers up right. It was showing me a cost instead of profit. Christie or Denise, help! Thanks.
Kim, Maria ,
I came up with it being 2.55 OOP after q’s and rr’s too. what am I missing…help.
Denise, I don’t get how you’re coming out with a moneymaker when I do the math with the coupons you listed…am I missing something? When I figure it, you’d still be paying 3.05 after RR.
How funny, we’re all trying to figure it out!!!
You all are cracking me up. I’m going to join in the figuring it out.
I think maybe there are some coupons we are missing? For one I think that there is a $2/1 coupon missing for the Gillette Deodorant. Maybe there is something better out there than a $1/1 for the shave gels, those are pretty pricey.
I like being prepared when I go to WAGS. I always get burned when I try to wing it at the store. Especially with something like this that has lots of coupons. If the cashier and I are both confused, then it will make for a not so happy trip to the store.
This is funny!! I’m confused!! lol
I just did the scenario I posted yesterday and it worked great so I’m sticking to that. 🙂
Thanks for trying!
She’s missing two coupons. $2 off the Gillete deodorant and the $1/2 for the two old spice she’s paying for. It isn’t a money maker that i can see but after coupons and RR you only pay 5 cents, With the prices she has listed.
Hi Christie,
I did the posted deal last night and the register beeped. The cashier wouldnt override it.
Is there an order I should be handing them to the cashier in?
Thanks,
Donna
Hmm, well it should beep every time because it’s prompting her/him to put put in the amount of the coupon. There is no way to not have it beep when it’s a coupon that an amount needs to be entered. Did it beep at some other point or after she put in all the amounts?
Ugg, i tried the deal, but i didnt get the 10rr… but i did get the 4.50 rr… i guess i could have bought 1 more deoderant/bodywash combo… i guess it assumes u are buying 6 things to total the 25.00 and want just the 4.50 rr… 🙁 o well, i got it all basically free though.
The only way the b1g1 coupons and the 1/2 coupons would go in was if they put in the b1g1 first, and then the 1.00 off coupons second, they didnt beep then, but when he tried the 1.00 off first, the b1g1 would NOT go through…not sure if it is like that at all of the wags, but…
If you buy the bodywash in this deal, you won’t get the $10 rr. Because it already has it’s own RR & it will give you the lesser of the 2, tried it yesterday, questioned it & that’s what i was told. The Mgr went ahead & gave me the $10 rr but that’s the reason. Just thought i would share that..
That could be my issue. I am heading out to try another Wags… I have 50 within 10 miles of my house… No joke. Love Phoenix and Wags!
