Here’s my shopping scenario for 7/27. In this scenario you’ll get $17.96 in merchandise, after sales and coupons you’ll pay $9.46 out of pocket and end up with $4.40 (4,400 Balance Reward Points) and 50¢ from SavingStar. So it’s like you’re getting all of these items for $4.56 or 57¢ per item!
IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT THESE TRANSACTIONS
-) You can’t have more MQ than items! Blue = MQ
-) You don’t have to do these in one day, just pick up where you left off.
-) I always bring some extra fillers with me to the register, in case of an emergency!

Doesn’t the $1/1 Purcell coupon from the monthly book expire on 7/26 making it invalid?
There is also one in the August coupon book.
For the Purell, if I use a $2 MQ and the $1 Wags coupon, it will be 1 penny over the $2.99 price. Will the wags coupon adjust down?
You need to buy (2) and use one $2 q and one $1 q and then the coupon from the monthly book.
