2001 Walgreens $100 Challenge- Week 1

My friend over at Our House of Fun is hosting a Walgreens challenge this year. The idea is to see how much you can purchase at Walgreens in one year and spend $100 or less using sales, coupons and register rewards. I have been couponing for a while now, but I tend to get sucked in to all the great sales and deals so I thought this would hold me accountable to not spending a ridiculous amount of money trying to get all the deals. I will really have to decide which deals are the best and which ones I should spend my money on. So, join in if you would like!

This week I spent a lot OOP because I only had 2RR to begin with and most of the great deals to earn more RR's were like $10. So, here was my week!
