This morning I was ready to walk about the door to head to Walgreens, Jim (Doc) got a page to the Emergency Room at the hospital by Walgreens. We left together and I dropped him off and I knew I had an hour to do some browsing. The Black Haircare Products were all on clearance and so I decided to stock up for Detamara.

I had planned on doing other deals, but forgot the printed off the internet coupons by the computer in my haste to leave with Doc to do an emergency appendectomy. I saw several other deals, but am waiting to see if the manufacturers issue new coupons. I was bummed that my Pantene coupons expired yesterday and would have gotten the Pantene for Dee for only 22 cents. Oh well, I still had Rapid Rewards to cover it.

I feel like I am finally getting proficient on rolling over my RR deals to save on paying money out of pocket. I also have learned on trick... Always begin with the Transaction that can be reimbursed with Flex Money. Then roll over the all the RR from there.

I apologized to the polite young cashier who reminds me of my adopted boys every time I come in. He knows that I will have several transactions and he informed me that he is used to my deals and is taking lessons. He needs to learn as he is a poor student. He always greets me with a smile and patiently waits on me. Thank you to Daryll at Walgreens for amazing customer service.

Thanks for the kuddos. My post was not clear, my husband is the doctor and he had a very busy day having to take out someones appendix. We try to double team our trips that way I can see him and we get some time together when he travels to one of the outlying hospitals.
