Frugal Friday....early

So, I've plotted and planned my shopping trip for this weekend. I've got $225 to spend on groceries/toiletries/household. This is one stop that I've got planned...
Walgreens: Diaper Deal this week

Diapers are on sale for $5.99 again. If I'm able to find the Prescription Savings booklet coupons, I should be able to get them super cheap!
Here's how it'll work:

I'll buy 3 packages of Walgreens diapers at $5.99 each = $17.97
Use $2/1 coupon from the Prescription Savings booklet (should take $2 off each pack)
Use $5/2 coupon from EasySaver July booklet (should take $2.50 off each pack)
Spend $4.47 plus tax out of pocket

Get $5 Register Reward (this is advertised in the July EasySaver booklet so if for some reason it doesn't print, be sure to politely ask them to re-ring your order or give you the $5 on a gift card)
I'll be doing this 3 times (hopefully) to get 9 packages of diapers for approximately $15.00 out of pocket!
BUT

I will have earned $15 worth of Register Rewards which I'll use towards this stuff:

2 Walgreen's brand fabric softener sheets, B1G1 Free $2.99

1 box Walgreens ziploc bags $.99

3 pkgs Papermate mechanical pencils $.15

1 pkg notebook paper $.29

4 rolls toilet paper $2.00

3 rolls paper towels $1.80

1 Dawn dishsoap $.99

1 pkg Bic razors $2.99

3 Orbit chewing gums $2.00

2 bags Chex mix $3.00

2 Blue Diamond Almonds $3.29

________________________________

Total: $20.49

Minus MF coupons $2.50

Minus $15.oo Register Rewards

Out of pocket aprox. $3.18

$15.00+$3.18 = $18.18 total out of pocket !


Blessings!

The "diaper deal" I snagged from Money Saving Mom, changing it to fit my situation.
