Super deal at Walgreens-Free makeup!





At Walgreens right now, Almay makeup is ringing up buy one get one free. It is supposed to be buy one get one 50% off. In the front of the stores, there is a new coupon book for November that has a $4 off coupon for Almay one coat mascara. The joy of this coupon is it's a Walgreens coupon and one coupon takes off $4 for every mascara you have in your order! SO, while the makeup is still ringing up bogo free, this makes for free mascara or even a money maker!
Some of the one coat mascaras are $6.99 and some are $7.99. So with the $6.99 ones, you buy 2, it takes one off then you use the $4 coupon and it takes off $8 making you $1.01 for every two you buy! (Make sure to have something else in your order to use this overage on.) If you buy 2 of the $7.99 ones, then they are basically free with bogo and the $4 coupon. But since this is probably a glitch, it is likely to be fixed soon so that they are actually ringing up bogo 50%, so hurry to get in on this one. Once fixed, if you buy 2 of the $6.99 mascaras, it would be $6.99+$3.50=$10.49 then your coupon would take off $8 leaving two mascaras for $2.49. Still a good deal, but not free!



Almay has another deal running too for the pure blends foundation and pure blends mascara. The foundation is $9.99 and will give you a $10 RR, so it's free after RR! The mascara is $6.99 and is giving a $5 RR. (The $4 coupon does not work on this mascara.) Buy both together and you will get the mascara free while it's still ringing bogo free or for $3.50 if it's fixed to bogo 50%. So you will pay either $9.99 for both or $13.49 and you will get $15 in RR back! It's a money maker either way! With the mascara deal above for the one coats, you can buy as many as you want in one transaction (but buy in 2's for the bogo deal). But remember for this deal since they are producing RR's only to do one of each in a transaction as you will only get one RR for the foundation and one for the mascara in a transaction no matter how many you buy. Also remember you cannot roll these RR to buy more Almay or you won't get another RR.
(Hint: use the MM mascaras to provide overage so you can spend less on the RR makeup.)
