    mmmm.. that candy looks really good. I’m not sure if it’s on sale this week, but I love those Hersheys packages.

    Both stores let you use the Rimmel q? I thought it was for only walmart? Awesome if it works! Also with the bogo glade q in this weeks paper they should be free!

    I’m not positive about the Rimmel, but someone reported that they were able to use the coupon at Target without any problems. And you’re right about the Glade! Although my last cashier was a nazi about it, they usually take them.

    Where can I find the aluminum foil and toothbrush coupons? What is a Catalina coupon? I do not see a Rimmel coupon for mascara in the All You. I just see a eye shadow coupon. What page is the mascara on?

    my Rimmel coupon says b1 Rimmel Colour Rush Eye Shadow G1F & has Wal-mart on it. Is there another RImmel coupon you are talking about?

    I used the Rimmel coupon at Walgreens. It scanned fine. Mine states free eyeshadow, not mascara.

    June - The aluminum foil coupon was from a previous newspaper insert, not sure which one. As was the Reach toothbrush coupon - it is for $1 off any Reach toothbrush. A Catalina coupon is a coupon that comes out at Walgreens where the Register Rewards come out and is valid only at Walgreens.

    I haven’t actually gotten my first All You issue, but I had read it was for mascara. You guys are probably right that it is for eyeshadow though - I’ve updated the post. Thanks!
