    Can you stack the two Old Spice coupons? I saw that I had them, but figured that I was already using my “purchased” one to get the other bodywash free. I know you can use a BOGO and a $off coupon, but wasn’t sure you could use what amounts to two BOGO with only one item purchased.

    This has been my first week at doing this $5.00 challenge. The total value of my purchase for this challenge was $15.98 & I still have $3.00 in RR left for next week. I could have done better but I may add to that later this week. I did more shopping at walgreens and ended up spending $38.72. I had a total savings of $81.17 that is including the $13.00 in RR left for next week. Having a great time shopping.
