Great Flintstones Vitamins deal at Walgreens!

Ok, here is the breakdown of the flintstones vitamins deal at WAGs:

Buy 4 flintstones vitamins at 5.00 each
Use 4 1.00/1 coupons (found in 1/4/09 SS or look on HCW for a printable)
Pay 16 dollars OOP
Get back a 10.00 RR
Send in rebate for flintstones vitamins(rebate is also found in the 1/4/09SS insert: the deal is that they give you 50% back on what you spend AFTER the dollar coupons)
Get 8.00 back from the rebate
Profit of 2.00 after RR, coupons and rebate


Of course, if you have a RR that you can use, you can find a really cheap filler(buy 2 reeses whipps and use one whipps coupon and your RR!) and get even better profit.

I have been waiting for a good deal on vitamins for Sonny, and he was just about out of them. I love getting them for free, but a 2.00 profit ain't bad either! Hope this helps someone!

I am planning on this deal! I was so excited about the rebate for them in the paper too! My girls LOVE these, they think it's special medicine, lol!

Queen, same here!

Sonny loves them, especially the gummie ones, and I was happy to see them included. It always seems like I have to spend a bit OOP for his vitamins, even when they are on sale with coupons. This time I got paid! Whoo Hoo!

Would you mind emailing me where to get the refund? I bought already bought the vitamins. Thanks for sharing!! bliss@blisssawyer.com

bliss,

the rebate is in the 1/4/09SS insert right next to the flintstones coupons. HTH!

Can you tell me where you can find this rebate form on the internet? My son threw away all of sunday's coupon when he was "cleaning". I didn't realize it until it was too late.

Where did you see the RR for these? I can't find in the weekly or monthly booklet. I bought these and did not get the RR and want to be able to show the Walgreens when I return them. Thanks so much!!

Okay, I found the RR deal in the Walgreen's weekly flyer. Mine was missing those pages! now does anyone have any ideas about how to get the UPC symbols off the bottles? Mind didn't come in boxes. Soak? Cut? Peel? Peeling was starting to tear the paper. Anyone tried it yet?

sshallenbu,

I'll do some research and see if I can find it online. Otherwise, if you want, you can e-mail me your address and I'll send you one of the 7 extras that I have lol.

lifeunfolds,

I have no idea how to get the peelies off! I heard that if you put stickers or such that won't come off into the freezer, it makes it easier to get it off. But, you may just want to google it :oP

Hi Amiyrah,

I am new to this process so please be patient with me, but i am all about trying to save some extra money being a mother of 3 myself. What is the SS that you refer to? I went to walgreens and got the vitamins (4) of them and they told me i didnt qualify for RR because i used coupons. Am I doing something wrong? Thank you

I did this deal but I also used the $1 coupon from the Walgreens Kids Coloring book and brought my OOP to $13.xx. I got back my $10 RR and will send in for the rebate. So this turned out to be a $6 MM!

Amiyrah said...

Tunishia,

that was quite a lie they told you! Coupons don't effect the 10.00 RR in any way. As long as the flintstone vitamins were 60ct or over, then the RR should have been given to you. I'm sorry that i'm just seeing this post, because the sale is over, but if you still have the circular, take it and your receipt back to the store and tell them that they owe you that 10.00 RR. And, if you can, call customer service and tell them the situation. Unfortunately, I haven't had great luck with WAGs customer service, but pretty much everyone else I know has had good luck.

Ashley,
yes, I read about using the coloring book coupon, but I didn't have it, so I just posted the deal that I personally did ver batum. I'm happy with any type of money maker, though :o)

Hi Amiyrah,
I just wanted to thank you again about the deal. I did contact customer service on the Walgreens website and they will be sending me a $10 gift for the RR.

Amiyrah,

Yours is one of the first blogs I've started to follow (I am so computer illiterate), I don't see how to email you for the rebate. My personal email is sshallenbu@gmail.com

Thanks!!!
