Thanks Alyssa — I just posted the moneymaker deal. Hope Relevant was amazing — so sad to miss;(
i can use the huggies RR on the colgate transaction and still get the colgate RR right???
i’m in need of diapers and wanted to get a lot this week!
@brooke, Yes, you can use RR to pay for an item that gives you RR and still have them print. Unless it’s the same item. You need to alternate between brands. Colgate – diapers – colgate.
