Wags Fun!






How much candy is too much? Wags has a great deal on select candy bags this week. They are 2/$4. To sweeten the deal, there are RRs available (CATs at the grocery store).

Buy 3 receive $2.00 RR

Buy 4-5 receive $3.00 RR

Buy 6 or more receive $4.00 RR

You can also receive $5.00 RR WYS $20 on candy. This is a store Q, so this is a double dip deal. Here's what it would look like:

10 x candy $20.00 - OOP cost

Earn $4 + $5 RR = $9.00. 

This makes the candy $1.10 per bag after rewards. I didn't do it this way, because I had booster scenarios. You can just do the exact transaction as my 2nd one to take advantage of the booster deal and still score cheap candy. DO NOT pay with WC. You can use RRs on this transaction if you have any. 

I had good digital boosters on both accounts and RRs to roll, so here's what I did:

Trans 1

2 x Dove conditioner $8.00

2 x Oral b flossers 8.00

1 x Venus disposable razors 3.79

6 x candy 12.00

Less Dove DQ (4.00)

Less Venus DQ (3.00)

Less RRs (15.00)

Tax 1.19

OOP $10.98

Earned $7 WC (WYS $30) + $10 RR ($4 Candy, $3 Dove, $3 Oral B)

Total earned $17.00

Ugh, that $4 RR beeped AGAIN. I just bet I took back the scanned RR from my last trip. The other RRs were printed too faintly (CAT machine was low on ink) and wouldn't scan either, so the shift lead came over and manually entered all RRs. 

Another ugh & totally my fault. I had a different scenario planned. I was gonna buy 1 Crest t/p & 1 Oral B t/b and use $3 DQs. Then I remembered that we need flossers and saw that it was part of the weekly deal. However, I forgot to clip the DQ on this account. Totally my own fault, but no biggie. 

Trans 2

2 x Dove conditioner $8.00

2 x Oral b flossers 8.00

1 x Venus disposable razors 3.79

6 x candy 12.00

Less Dove DQ (4.00)

Less Venus DQ (3.00)

Less Oral b DQ (2.00)

Tax 1.19

OOP $23.98

Earned $6 WC (WYS $30) + $10 RR ($4 Candy, $3 Dove, $3 Oral B)

Total earned $16.00

I did the same transaction twice. However, my booster rewards were different on each account. 

I also received 2 x $7 WYS $35 paper booster Qs. I could've used one on my 2nd transaction, but I knew that I wouldn't earn another one. Besides, I'm planning on double dipping with my $10 WYS $40 DQ boosters next week. That's $17 free money. TMTMM! 😊 I sorta kinda already have a transaction worked out. It depends on what Qs are available next week. 

Breakdown

Number of items purchased: 22

Total Qs used : $16.00

Total Rewards used : $15.00

Total Rewards earned (RR, WC, Ibotta, Fetch): $80.70 (pending Ibotta) : $33.00

Total OOP : $34.96 ($1.60 per item - this includes sales tax)

Total Retail value : $96.58 (excl tax)


DS already took the candy to school, so that's one less thing to think about. 

Happy shopping peeps!
