I had a pretty nice trip to Walgreens today! FYI – The Energizer Batteries were not marked BOGO at my store, however they rang up BOGO $3.49. Also, it appears that the Nivea Lip Care unadvertised BOGO 50% OFF must only be select varieties. The ones I chose did not ring up that way; they only rang up 2/$5. I had a person patiently waiting behind me at the cosmetics counter, so I decided to keep these. My trip went so smooth otherwise and my cashier was really nice, so I decided to take my healthy profit and not be a pain in the hinder over $2.50 I didn’t save.
I also found some interesting fillers in the clearance area that should make some nice gag gifts – a Glee sticker book and a Justin Bieber magnetic frame. I know exactly who is getting those already!
