I got a great deal, but I'm not sure if it was worth all the time and energy. I went to 4 stores before I found one with half of the items on my list. None had the Polaroid cameras that I really wanted . I did get:

8x preperation H @ 3.99 = 31.92
4x dawn @ 1.99 = 7.96
3x flavorice @ 3/$2 = 2.00
1x chemistry defrizzer = 7.99
2x john frieda products @ 6.49, BOGO50% = 9.73
4x glade fabric and air @ 3.49 = 13.96
3x energizer recharagable batteries @ 4.99 = 14.97
Total = 88.53

Wags Q's
preperation H ESQ, $2 x 8 = -16.00
dawn 7-day, $1 x 4 = -4.00
chemistry ESQ = -3.00
glade ESQ, 1.50 x 4 = -6.00
glade ESQ, $1 x 4 = -4.00
total = 55.53
-10/40 = 45.53

Man. Qs
preperation H, 3.00 x 8 = -24.00
dawn, .50 x 4 = -2.00
john frieda, 1.00 x 2 = -2.00
glade, 1.50 x 4 = -6.00
total = 11.53 + tax = 15.26

I got a $9 RR and will get 19.79 in rebates, making a total of 13.53 profit. I'm still not sure if it was worth it, though. I don't have any great plans for the RR, didn't really NEED dishsoap (I already had 3 at home- but we'll get to it eventually), and will donate the Preperation H (just used it for overage). I'm sure that the batteries will find something to power. The kids (and DH) will be happy to find treats in the freezer, and I get to try some new hair products that I didn't even know that I wanted to try before today. So, at the end of the day I got a really great deal on things that we could live without. Hopefully the hair stuff earns it's keep...

sounds like a GREAT trip to me!

Wow, I must have really been tired yesterday! Now that I look again it was definatly worth it. I really just paid the sale price for the batteries, everything else was free. And there will be a good rebate coming my way. I went out for round 2 tonight. It is a lot more fun when you are awake enough to think.
