How I Got Garnier Fructis for Free



I love Garnier Fructis conditioners.  And I pinky-swear I'm not getting a payback for saying this.  It smells good, and it makes my hair a lot less crazy than it wants to be.

When I found out from the blog Common Sense With Money, which is fabulous, that I could get it at a deep discount, I was very excited.  My stockpile had whittled down to just 3-4 bottles, and I was afraid I was going to have to dip into my reserves of free hotel conditioners.

The only downside to this deal was that I had to go to Walgreens to get it.  My local Walgreens is not so much on the friendly side.  If I can at all avoid going there, I steer clear.

But for Fructis, I will do almost anything.  So here's the deal I did:

3 Fructis Conditioners @$3.99
2 Fructis Shampoos @ $3.99
1 Fructis Spray Shine Styler @ $3.99
1 Pert Plus @ $3.79

At the store I used six Walgreen's coupons for $1.00 off Fructis items, and six manufacturer's coupons for $1.00 Fructis items.  I also used a $3.00 off coupon for the Pert Plus.  

My total with the obnoxious sales tax was $14.81.

Then I got online and did the Walgreens Easy Saver rebate program.  It took me about an hour to do this, no joke, because their website was so slow.

Because I spent $20 on Fructis, I was able to get a $10 rebate.  My Pert Plus also ended up being FREE, because I got a $3.79 rebate for it.  Now I just have to wait to get my Walgreens gift card in the mail.

All together I spent just under $2.00 for a heck of a lot of nice shampoo and conditioner.

Yippee!
