Walgreens Scenarios - week of 3/20

I have had a few weeks in a row where I have made it to Walgreens to pick up the weekly deals. I think there is an outside chance that this week I might make it by a Walgreens, here are my thoughts on the deals I might do.

Transaction #1
4 - Ensure (I use them as my protein shake when I work out)

-$6.99 B3G1 IP
-$3 Ensure mfg coupon (does Walgreens let you use coupons on the ones you buy?)

Total $17.97, earn $7 RR.

Transaction #2
1 - Almay make-up item @$10.99 w/ 30% off sale would be $7.69
1 - Method Hand soap
1 - Reese's Egg

-$2 Walgreens coupon (coupon booklet)
-$2 Almay mfg coupon

-$7 RR from Transaction #1

Total $0.18 OOP, earn $5 and $2 RR.

Transaction #3
1 - Theraflu
1 - Plackers Flossers
4 - Reach Crystal Clean Dental Care (with in ad coupon)
1 - Arm & Hammer Deodorant (with in ad coupon)
1 - Reese's Egg

-$2 Theraflu IP
-$1.50 $1.50/2 Reach mfg coupon
-$1.50 $1.50/2 Reach mfg coupon

-$5 RR
-$2 RR

Total $.44 OOP, earn $1, $2 and $4 RR.

Transaction #4 (I think I will repeat most of #2, since I have two Almay coupons)
1 - Almay make-up item @$10.99 w/ 30% off sale would be $7.69
1 - Method Hand soap
2 - Cadbury Egg

-$2 Walgreens coupon (coupon booklet)
-$2 Almay mfg coupon

-$4 RR from Transaction #3
-$2 RR from Transaction #3
-$1 RR from Transaction #3

Total $0.68 OOP, earn $5 and $2 RR.

Transaction #5 (not sure what the cost will be on this one)
1 - Gillette Deodorant
2 - Gillette Body wash
1 - Old Spice Deodorant
1 - Old Spice Body wash

-$? BOGO Gillette Body Wash wyb Deodorant mfg coupon
-$? BOGO Old Spice Body Wash wyb Deodorant mfg coupon

-$5 RR from Transaction #4
-$2 RR from Transaction #4

Total OOP? I am hoping that I will get the full price one for free with my coupon. The Gillette Deodorant doesn't appear to be part of the BOGO50% sale, so I threw in a second body wash. If it is included by shelf tag, then I will simply not get the second body wash. If I assume a $4.50 shelf price, then my OOP for this transaction is $2. If I don't need the second body wash, then I would back fill with some CheezIts or Macaroni & Cheese.

With my assumption on Transaction #5, my total OOP is $21.27 for $87.76 in product, a savings of 76%.
