Walgreens 9/05/11 haul...

Even though I did this haul on Labor Day- it felt too easy to be work. The planning is always the work, and the shopping is the challenge/fun. Here's what I hauled in today...

5- Electrosol Finish Dishwashing Tabs (20 ct) $4.99 --> $1.74 ea.
8- Herbal Essences Hair Spray $3.99 --> $1.50 ea.
4- Mitchum Antiperspirant $3.99 --> FREE
4- Oral-B Pro-Health Toothbrush $4.99 --> $.99 ea.
(NOT PICTURED) 2- Pure Drinking Water (24 ct) $2.69 --> $2.19 ea.

Not a huge haul- but pretty decent. When deciding whether or not to get an item I will usually see if I am saving about 70% (ish) on the item. If I am, then that usually dictates whether or not I get it. To figure out the math you take the $ amount saved / (divided by) the retail cost = % saved. (For example: Oral-B toothbrush $4 saved / $4.99 retail cost = .80160321 or rounded to 80%) The waters weren't a huge discount, but I needed filler items in order to use my Register Rewards from previous weeks...and we needed bottled water...so I got some. 

What I spent: $32.10
Retail Cost: $98.40
SAVED: $66.30

67 % SAVED!!
