*****
Note: I had some register rewards that I needed to use up before they expired, so that's why my total "cost" was higher this week (although out of pocket was still very low.) There weren't a lot of good register reward deals this week that I could "roll" my old RR's into so I ended up just getting some random things, like notebooks, tape, & cereal, etc. that we could use.

The Sure deodorant were completely free - they were on sale with a Walgreens coupon for $1.50 each and I had $1.50 coupons = FREE.

The Stride gum was completely free - they were on sale for 2/$2. I had Buy One Get One Free manufacturer's coupons, which brought the cost down to 50 cents each and then I used a Walgreens $1 off 2 coupon to get them for free. Free gum is always nice!
