Updates From the Field!

by Christie Bisbee on June 6, 2010


I had to go to 3 different stores today because everyone was out of everything! The stores in my area are getting remodeled so everything was in a different place too. And I couldn’t find a bar of Neutrogena anywhere!  Here’s what I found out…

PROGLIDE FUSION RAZOR
This puppy is ROLLING!!!! (Thanks to all of you who e-mailed & commented) The dilema is that there is now a “not valid on P&G products” right on the RR. So… there it is.

If you are buying the ProGlide Gillette Fusion you may want to see if your store has the Power Sneak Preview Set. It’s ringing up $9.89 just like the razor and producing the $5 Register Reward! It does only contain one blade instead of 2 but it also includes a shave gel, a battery, a thermal scrub and a cooling lotion. It looks like it would make a nice little gift…maybe throw it in with the Father’s Day goodies!

BUY
Proglide Fusion Razor Sneak Preview Set $9.89
USE
1 – $4/1 Gillette Fusion Razor 06-06-10 P&G
Total = $5.89, Get Back $5 RR
Total = $.89!

JOHN FRIEDA
Be VERY careful with the John Frieda deal. DON’T get the ones that have the extra 33% in them. Several of you have e-mailed me that they didn’t work for you and guess what, they didn’t work for me either! 🙂 I didn’t expect them to after all your e-mails so I paid cash and was able to return them easily. Thanks to all of you who e-mailed me!
__________________________________________________________________________________________

GILLETTE BODY WASH DEAL
I couldn’t find a store that had 6 of these to save my life. I really wanted to do all Gillette because I also had the $1.50/1 Gillette body wash catalina but sometimes you have to just roll with it. (No pun intended 🙂 ) If you find yourself in a similar situation just replace (2) of the Gillette Body wash with (2) Old Spice Body Wash to do the deal.

BUY
4 – Gillette Body Wash $4.49
2 – Old Spice Body Wash $4.49
Total = $26.94
USE
2 -B1G1 Gillette Body Wash, 06-06-10 PG
1 -$4/2 Gillette AP/Deo or Body Washes, Any – 05-02-10 PG
1 – B1G1 FREE Old Spice Body Wash 06-06-10-PG
Total = $9.47, Get Back $10 RR
= $.53 Money Maker!

I’ve got more updates coming up in a few…

Hey Michelle,
Yes you can do all Old Spice just the $4/2 really helped. But you can change it for the
– $1/2 Old Spice Anti-Perspirant/Deodorants or Body Washes, any 1.7 oz+ – 06-06-10 PG or 05-02-10 PG.

Rob, did I mention how impressed I was with your shops from last week? 🙂
I’m mixing up my ProGlide up, gift sets for stocking stuffers (hey it’s good to plan ahead) and regular ones for hubby to really use.

Just a heads up…
The Fusion ProGlide gift set is the battery operated one,
NO Extra Cartridge if that matters to people.

Happy Shopping!

WOW I love this set..perfect for a Fathers day gift.

Christie June 6, 2010 at 3:51 pm

It’s really pretty nice and for $.89!!!!! It just makes it even nicer. 🙂 I’m getting an early start on my Christmas stocking stuffers!

Tiffany June 6, 2010 at 3:54 pm

So, I’m confused.. It’s rolling, or it’s not rolling?

Reply

Christie June 6, 2010 at 4:19 pm

It is rolling, however… there is a “not good for P&G products” written on the register reward itself. So you may not be allowed to roll it because of the new wording on the register reward. Does that make sense?

Could not find coupon for $1.00 off any Johnson baby product under your red plum heading and I did use your 30303 zip?

Reply

Christie June 6, 2010 at 5:39 pm

I can’t find it now either… ughhh… I’ll let you know if it shows up again!

Sara June 6, 2010 at 10:11 pm

My store does not carry Gillette Body Wash so I had to get only Old Spice items. I’m going to try another store tomorrow. I didn’t take enough $1 off 2 Old spice q’s but so I paid $.25 per bottle.

I got 3 body washes
3 deoterants

Used 3 BOGO and 2 $1/2 only $.25 each after RR…not bad!

Did the Fusions stop rolling? Here is what I did today:

Fusion Pro Glide 9.89
Fusion Pro Glide 9.89
Distilled Water .69 w/ in ad
Fusion Coupon -4.00
Fusion Coupon -4.00
Rejuvicare -10.00 RR

However I only received 1 $5 RR. If it’s rolling shouldn’t I have received 2 RRs?

Reply

Christie June 7, 2010 at 1:09 pm

Hi Marci – If you buy (2) you’ll only get 1 RR. However if you buy (1) and then buy a 2nd razor in a 2nd transaction and use the 1st $5 RR to pay for the 2nd transaction then you will get one as long as it’s rolling. I know it’s confusing. 😛

Reply

Marci June 7, 2010 at 1:13 pm

Darn! Thanks. I knew about the other type of rolling, but I thought that buying 2 in one transaction would count also.

Reply

Ann June 7, 2010 at 2:16 pm

So if you had had gotten 6 of the Gillette Body washes, how many of the $1.50 off q’s would you have used?

Reply

Christie June 7, 2010 at 7:32 pm

Just one since out of the (6) – (3) of them would have been (3) BOGO coupons, (2) would have been for the $4/2 coupon (counts for 2 products) leaving me with (1) I could have used the $1.50/1 for. Oh well! I’m still pretty pleased with it. 🙂

Andrea June 7, 2010 at 6:34 pm

I bought the body wash and received the $10 RR. Can I use $10 RR towards the purchase of the Fusion Pro Glide and still receive the $5 RR?

At my WAGS today, I found a Fusion ProGlide set but it’s not the Sneak Preview Set. I price checked it and it came up $9.89. It has one razor and some other products. I know it doesn’t have the Fusion shave gel in it. I didn’t buy any of these because the store was freezing and the cashier was a member of the coupon police. So, I don’t know if this set generates RRs or not. Has anyone found this set at their Wags?? If so, does it generate RRs.

I left the store and didn’t buy anything. I had all my coupons and papers in the shopping cart so I wheeled it outside and unloaded my car. When I turned around, the cashier and the asst. mgr. were standing behind me. The asst. mgr. said, “Is everything okay this morning,” or something like that. I told her I just didn’t have any luck today and the store was freezing. I guess the cashier told the asst. mgr. that she suspected me of shoplifting something so they came out to check. Needless to say, I won’t be going back there. In fact, I think I’ll call Wags tomorrow and tell them that I won’t be shopping at Wags any more after I spend the $10 RR that I have. I hate their register rewars any way. They are only good for 2 weeks. CVS’ Extra Bucks are good for a month and I get good treatment at one of our local CVS stores because they know I shop there a lot for deals.

Christie June 7, 2010 at 11:05 pm

I bet it does generate the RR if it rings up for $9.89 but I haven’t tried it. BOOOOO to that store!

uthorns1976 June 7, 2010 at 10:57 pm

Andrea…if you use the $10 P&G RR on the Fusion razor, I don’t think you will get the $5 RR for the razor since it’s also a P&G product. Technically, you shouldn’t even try it if the $10 RR says “not valid on P&G products.”

@uthorns1976 So sorry that you went through that. What’s with Walgreens being so coupon unfriendly these days?

Reply

Kelly June 8, 2010 at 4:13 am

@uthorns1976 Oh, and you should call corporate about what you experienced. Especially since you are a regular shopper there.

Shana June 8, 2010 at 3:36 pm

It does generate the 5 RR, I tried it.

I went to Wags today to work the buy $25 PG get $10 RR. I bought 2 gillette clinical deo $8.99 ea and 2 gillette body wash $4.49 ea. total = 26.96. Then I used $3 off clinical deo(2) and buy one deodorant get bodywash free(2)should have been $11.98 w/$10 RR = $1.98

But no…cashier rang up deo @ $8.98/ea and bodywash @ $.01/ea making in $17.98 or $11.98 w/$3Q(2) and no RR.

I am furious! Has this happened to anyone else? I plan to return tomorrow and demand a refund. How can they give me a full refund if they didn’t scan and enter the BOGO Qs the way they were suppose to. Is it to late for me to ask for a refund of my money and Qs?

Reply

shelli June 8, 2010 at 11:55 pm

…seems like they would have to give me money refund for the Qs or else they would be making money off the coupon value.

Reply

Christie June 8, 2010 at 11:59 pm

They should give you a refund for the full amount since it’s not like they can give you your coupons back and they have already sent them off to be redeemed. Yes, that was a major screw up on that cashiers part!

Reply

shelli June 9, 2010 at 1:31 pm

went to wags this morning, talked to manager. he was upset with the cashier and said that should not have been done that way. he gave me my $10RR and took my name & ph#. apparently the cashier is commiting some kind of fraud.

Reply

Christie June 9, 2010 at 1:59 pm

I’m SOOOO glad that it was taken care of and you got your $10 RR!

Reply

michelle June 9, 2010 at 4:53 pm

Doesn’t look like I can do the gillette deal this week, all wags in my area didn’t get the body wash in this week 🙁 Anyother senerios that is as close to $10RR as I have many to roll????

Reply

Jenn June 9, 2010 at 8:14 pm

does anyone know if it is still rolling?

Reply

HuskerFan June 9, 2010 at 11:50 pm

I heard somewhere it’s not rolling any more. Side note though – there is another package that also rings up 9.89 and gives a reward, but isn’t marked.

It’s much smaller package, about the same size as the regular razors. It has a few extra’s in it, face scrub, lotion, and body wash, and says something like “Up to $12 Value”. Ok, instead of guessing, I went and grabbed it, UPC is 47400 50221.

Again, it DOES give a $5RR! I didn’t try to roll it, because I heard it wasn’t, besides, only found 3, 1 at one store, and 2 at another…

Leah June 10, 2010 at 5:14 pm

Ok, I have already done the Fusion deal and have that $5 RR and the John Frieda $5 RR to use. Has anyone used the Fusion RR towards buying the $10 RR from buying $25 P&G products? I’m afraid I won’t get my $10 RR if I use the $5 Fusion one I already have to pay for it.

Reply

Caitlin June 10, 2010 at 8:51 pm

My stores have all raised the prices of the body wash and deodorants in this deal to 5.67-5.99! Very frustrating, and ruins the deal completely! I checked three stores in my area, because last week only 2 of them had raised the price, but this week they are all in on it. Booo!

Reply

Christie June 10, 2010 at 8:54 pm

That’s NUTS! I’m so sorry about that! What part of the country are you in?

Reply

Carmen June 10, 2010 at 11:32 pm

wonder why my walgreens has this same set priced at $12.99? everyone else gets it for $9.89? I am getting tired of walgreens. They also wouldn’t take my $4/2 as part of the gilette deal. ugh.
