I'm confused...why is the manufacturers rebate only $5.37 and $4.37?

[Teens&Tots]

Would this work:

Book of stamps = 8.40
Olay deal 6 (20 - (6X2 q's)) = 12.00

Subtotal = 20.40
- 5/20
= 15.40 +tax
get $7 RR

Not as wowee but we need stamps....

OK - I'm too tired to think - is this really a good deal to use this or just burn up my RR that I have from the diapers and get my stamps AND Olay???? I need some rationale here...

I want to buy the following - would be ok with the FARs but don't "need" them...
Olay
Stamps
Axe (movie tickets:))
TUF bags
Bandaids (although I might wait until 8/10 when they get a $3 RR)

Any advice would be appreciated....

Sorry - for my own calc's I always subtract postage to get my final cost - updated that in the notes above.

I think the olay would be $8oop 20-12=8 so you could add some more stuff in.

[caroline2007]

it seems RR is coupon as well, right?

[Susan in WA]

Newby here. So if I get the listerine for $8.00 that registers a $2 RR. Do I I have to make up for that $2.00? I'm 21.97 on my plan, but have to subtract for $1 in coupons making it 20.97 unless that listerine kills it. Also I already picked up what I wanted in FARs except they were out of the filters. That is what I want to get, hope they arn't still out. I cant believe they will let us use the FARs.
