Other great deals in the 7/21 Walgreens ad

• Butterball turkey bacon -- on sale for $1.29 per pack.  Use this $1 off coupon and get yours for just 29 cents!
• Oral-B Complete toothbrushes -- on sale 2 for $6, with $3 back in Register Rewards.  So buy two and use two $1 off coupons from the 7/7 P&G insert.  Your final price drops to 50 cents per toothbrush!
• Glade Decor Scents holders -- on sale 2 for $5, with $2 back in Register Rewards.  So buy two, and use two $1 off coupons from the 7/14 Smartsource insert.  Your price drops to $1 for both, or 50 cents apiece.
• Powerade -- 32 oz bottles on sale for 69 cents each with in-ad coupon.  Limit 3 per transaction.

• Arrid XX Dry or Arm & Hammer deodorant -- on sale for 99 cents per stick.
• Band-Aid bandages -- assorted 10 to 80-count boxes on sale for $1.99.  Buy two and use this 75 cents off 2 coupon, which drops your price to $1.62 per box.  It's not in the ad, but I think Walgreens is offering a free first-aid kit when you buy three first-aid items throughout July -- so watch for signage in stores on that deal!
• Arm & Hammer laundry detergent -- 25 to 32 load bottles on sale for $2.29 each.  Buy three and use this $1 off 3 coupon (registration required.)  Your price drops to $1.95 per bottle, or about six cents per load -- which is my personal stockpile price for laundry detergent!
• Soothe eye drops -- on sale for $7.99 per box.  Stack the $4 off coupon from the 6/30 Smartsource insert with the $2 off Walgreens coupon in the July coupon book.  That knocks your price down to $1.99 per box.
