Question Ugh.. When will I learn!

So, I am still learning this whole Walgreens shopping thing The RR's, the coupons, etc.
I was VERY excited to go during my lunch today..So I did. My total before coupons was $84.32. My oop was 41.32 Not a bad savings, but I want to get down to paying cents
How long has it taken everyone to get this WAGS shopping down? Maybe I just bought too much.
I think I am addicted!!!!!
Here's what I got:
3 Dove Shampoo's
3 Dove Conditioners
1 Dove Deodarant
1 Dove Lotion
1 Garnier Nutriesse Shampoo
1 Schick Razor
1 Softsoap Body wash
1 Softsoap Ensembles
1 Colgate ToothBrush
1 Listerine
1 Arm and Hammer 2 in 1 Cloths
2 Stacy's Pita
2 Ziploc Bags
1 Mentos Gum
1 Bag of snack doritos (needed them for lunch)

I got $17.00 in RR.. So in essence, I guess I really paid $24.32.. So maybe not too shabby at all for all that I got..
What do ya'll think? Is this a good deal for all that I got?

Ugh! For some reason I am feeling bad about paying that much.

Sorry this is so long..

You did great, but maybe try breaking the transaction down into smaller ones so you roll your rrs and you won't have such a big oop. :-) But you still did a great job

I think you did great. I like this kind of stuff so it didn't take me too long to figure Walgreens out although those RRs can be really tricky sometimes.

Thanks I think my next trip I will try the smaller transaction. Also, some of my stuff wasn't available for the RR's.. I just needed them. That I think is what added the extra amount.
I am gonna rollllll tonight or tomorrow!

I just wish I could get mine down to cents. With our 9.5% sales tax on everything, I'm afraid it will never be that low. But I can dream!

Did you use MFG coupons from Dove, Listerine etc. during your trip? If not, you could have shaved off some more $$. And I agree that small transactions are less confusing. I don't worry about rolling RRs because I tend to use them on neutral items that we need. Ex. Milk.
