Ingenious Insight By Karen

So I went to Walgreen’s and this is a great time to buy diapers!  I wanted to try the diapers to see how we liked them and so far so good.  They seem very comparable to the Luv’s and the Pampers BabyDry.  I do prefer the Cruisers, especially if they have diaper rash, they just seem to keep them cleaner.  So far the kids haven’t had any reaction to them, and the tabs hold really well.  There is a little less elasticity in the legs, but my son had a nice blow out wearing them and he didn’t leak at the legs or blow out the back…so I’m thinking we’re going to be stocking up on these!

When you go to Walgreen’s get the July ES and this weeks weekly ad, then go get 3 packages of the advertised diapers (in the weekly ad).  When you check out show the July ES which has a coupon for 5$/2 – I’ve been told this takes 2.50 off each package, then the cash register will print out a Register Reward for 5$ which is good toward your next purchase.   So you got 3 packages of diapers for 5.99 each. 18$ – JulyES 7.50 = 10.50.   The register should print out a register reward (like a coupon for your next purchase) for 5$.  Now you give them 3 more packs and they scan the July ES and you pay with your 5$ RR from the previous transaction.  18$ – (JulyES) 7.50 – (RR) 5$ = 5.50.   SO, you pay 15.50 for 6 packages of diapers!  2.58 each.  Pretty Good!  I also heard that the August and July Easy Savers will be overlapping so you should be able to get them for free later this week!  Hopefully that will work out for me!  I got the crayola markers and the g2 pens that will be free with the mail in rebate.  I looked for the chair that will be free with MIR, but I couldn’t find it.  I got my daughter 2 of the workbooks (SchoolZone – Buy 1 Get 1).  I’m also going to watch for the Bic Razors and the windex, scrubbing bubbles, shout etc to overlap with the AugES Booklet.  I bought some of the 7th Generation cleaners for 1.24 each.  I like this stuff because I don’t worry about fumes with the kids.  Anyway, it’ll be an exciting week…
