Deals from today, despite a grumpy cashier at Walgreen's

Walgreen's- despite a rude cashier, I managed to get some good deals. She was rude about my using coupons and making two transactions (I left the store and then came back). I politely explained the company policy to her, and then ignored her rudeness. Of course, being me, the more I thought about it the more it upset me. If it happens again, I'll contact Walgreen's, but it could have been a one time thing.

Transaction 1:
2 - Reynold's Wrap Foil - $1.59 each for a total of $3.18, used 2 $1 MQ and a WAG Q that brought the price down to $0.89 each = $-0.22 (profit)
2 - Stayfree products - on sale for 2/$4 - used BOGO Q and $2 MQ = Free
2 - Russel Stover eggs (fillers) on sale for 2/$1 = $1 (Only one pictured, guess where the other one went!)

Total before sales and coupons = $10.16
Total sales = $1.98
Total coupons (WAG and MQ) = $7.40
Total OOP with tax = ZERO (used WAG gift card for $0.84)

This transaction was a 92% savings!!!

Transaction 2:
2 - Reynold's Wrap Foil - $1.59 each for a total of $3.18, used 2 $1 MQ and a WAG Q that brought the price down to $0.89 each = $-0.22 (profit)
4 - Valentine's bags originally 4/$1, on clearance for $0.24 total (I know that mathematically doesn't make sense, but it is how they rang up.)

Total before sales and coupons = $4.18
Total sales = $0.76
Total coupons (WAG and MQ) = $3.40
Total OOP with tax = $0.03

This transaction was a 99% savings!!!

I originally had just purchased two bags and ended up having a refund of $0.10, but the cashier was being a toot as previously mentioned, so I just bought two more bags.

Walmart - I could have had a ZERO balance here today, but wanted to take advantage of a few expiring Q.

2 - Nabisco 100 Calorie packs - normal $2.98 each or $5.96 total, on sale for 2/$4 - $1 internet Q = $3
8 - Yoplait Light yogurt - $0.53 each (never went on sale the entire time I had Q) or $4.24 total - 2 $1/4 internet Q = $2.24 ($0.28 per yogurt)
2 - Glucerna Cereal - $3.94 each or $7.88 each - used 2 $5 internet Q = $-2.12 (profit)
1 - Suave shampoo - $3 - $3 Suavonamics Q - FREE
1 - Kotex pantiliner - $1 - $0.75 MQ = $0.25
1 - Lemon - $0.20


Total before sales and coupons = $22.28
Total sales = $1.96
Total coupons (WAG and MQ) = $15.75
Total OOP with tax = $4.84

This transaction was a 79% savings!!!
