Help Sign Anyone want to help me figure out my best deal?

I want to get a hair dryer, the one this week that's pink, $20 with $10 rr. My hair dryer is about to die so i need to do this deal and i've been looking around and this seems to be a really good price. I have no rrs to roll. i was thinking about trying to get some stuff to either buy that i'd get more rr's in return and not have to spend quite as much or at least spend the same but come out with more... .make sense? I was thinking of getting some toothpaste. i have 1-$1.50 q 1-$1 q and 2-.75 qs. So that would make me $4 total. which is good, then i thought of getting the chapstick since i have to spend money anyways and mine as well get something free. i was going to do the skintimate but there wasn't any at the store. are there any other deals that will make me money with rrs? and am i going to have any problem using 4 of the same type of rr(like i buy the 4 toothpaste all seperate to get rrs) but then use the 4 - $3.49 rrs to buy the hair dryer. ok... i have a couple questions, i read somewhere that people said you can give the rrs first the qs and not have to have a filler... well... i'm not gonna have any qs so if i just give all the rrs will i need like a bunch of fillers still??? thats not gonna help much, cost more than it's worth i think. i want to use the $10 rr i get from the dryer to buy 4 packs of diapers. or... would i be better of to buy the dryer then use the rr's to buy the otehr stuff to give me rrs... but then i can't do more than one toothpaste in that transaction and get all the 4 seperate rrs.... hmmmm.... not sure waht to do. sorry this is long! really need the dryer and diapers and want the otehr stuff too! !! any help greatly appreciated!!

i have been buying the chapstick then the shaving gel (if don't have the womens get the mens) then buying the tooth paste! Keeping roling the RR into the next order. This will leave you with a 3.50 RR and a chapstick and a shaving gel and a tooth paste. It depends on how many times you would like to do this to get up to the 20.00. If you do this 6 times you will have 21.00 but will need 5 fillers.
dryer 20.00
5 fillers (.50 cents peeps!)
22.50 total
used all RR of 6 *3.50 which is 21.00
oop would be 1.50! and recieve 10 RR

you would still need to add in buying the chapstick 6 times at 1.99 each and some fillers here and there.

But would walk out with:
6 chapstick
6 shaving gels
6 toothpaste
1 blow dryer
and 10 RR!
oop is 4.50

Just adding the 1.99 *6= about 12.00 plus the last 1.50 would be 13.50 so depending on fillers would change your total. If find cheap fillers your would spend probable at least 16.00 with tax and walk out with the 10 RR and all of the above.
Hopefully,I did not confuse you to much.

If you use the 4 RR then you need 4 fillers, even if you don't have any Q's. Are there things other than diapers that you need? I bought things for my DD's Easter basket, small packages of jelly beans, or how about the Vienna sausages with the IVC, do enough times to get the rebate talked about on another thread, or the tuna. If not, then you COULD roll your 4 RR (3.49) into the hairdryer, if you have Visine Q's then buy 2 of those (VIsine would then be free), Reach toothpaste and floss if you have the Q's for that. Then with each transaction add one chapstick, one shave gel (either Edge or Skintimate), and alternate with the diapers as many times as you want to get free these items.

The simplest would be to buy the toothpaste, chapstick, shave gel, visine use the RR to then buy 4 vienna sausage, or the tuna, both with IVC, (counts as your extra filler items), buy the hair dryer, use the RR to buy the diapers.

I think you should check with the store first whether or not they allow you to use more than one RR per transaction. At my store, just one RR per transaction. HTH

I heard a couple of members confirm that chapstick doesn't print RR this wk, so you should try to buy 1 first see if it works.

Do you know if the hairdryer has a defuser? I need a defuser, and will be getting this if it had one!

Also, I bought two chapstick "True Shimmers" this morning and my RR did print!

not sure i fully understand... ! sorry.. i'm slow, not even sure they had the mens shaving cream. thanks though... i'm trying to figure between just the toothpaste and the capstick 4 times and i still end up spending like a total of $20.50 before tax.

ok. could i do this?

Buy 1 chapstick $1.99
Buy 4 colgates 1 @ $2, 1 @ $2.50, & 2 @ $2.75 ea.

All seperate transactions
So I'd have 5 rrs
1- $1.99
4- $3.49
=$15.95

Buy the hair dryer $20
get 4 of the cheapest possible fillers
use the $15.95

Get $10 ecbs

Buy 4 pack of wags diapers

Means I'll spend around $19 total with tax. idk... what do ya'll think? seems easy enough! !

if you're planning to buy 4 diapers, you don't need the diapers anymore. Just buy the hairdryer and 4 diapers in 1 transaction and use up all your 5 RRs at once. Then claim your ESR. The ESR doesn't come right away.

You can use more than one RR but you can only have 1 coupon per item. So if you wanted to use more RRs, you need to buy more than 1 item.

Yes you can. You're allowed to use multiples of the same RRs in a transaction. And the 4 fillers will work perfectly for the use of the RRs.
