Okay, so now I don't really know how to do this. I was going to count my Walgreens trips towards my $100 budget for the month but I think I am going to reverse that ruling. For example, here's what happened tonight:

Final shopping total - $136.20
OOP - $50.35
Saved - $75.85
Received $49.00 in RR.
Will receive $24.99 in rebates.

So, I'm not trying to cheat, I'm just thinking that the $50 really shouldn't go towards my total. What do you think? Is that cheating?

Of course, if I had the time, I could have made stinkin' 35 trips to Walgreens, in which case I could have used the RR from beginning transactions to pay for my other transactions. But seriously, WHO HAS THE TIME TO DO THAT!?!?!?

Thoughts, comments??

Thanks Melody! That is definitely true - I won't be spending a lot of money OOP at Wags on my next few trips, that's for sure!!
