I had some skepticism on another thread about the great deals at Walgreens. So yesterday I went there with my register rewards and coupons and purchased this:

L'Oreal Hair Tint for Women (my wife likes to tint her naturally brown hair a slight shade of red) which cost $8.99.

4 TV dinners.

2 cans Campbells soup.

Total cost came to over $16. So what did I spend out of pocket after register rewards and L'Oreal coupon (which are ubiquitous)? 67 cents. That's right. 67 cents. The only thing is most of my register rewards expire this Friday which is why I am "laundering" them by buying other stuff in order to get register rewards good for two weeks from now when I heard on the grapevine there will be some stupendous deals.

The DUmmies have totally lost their minds because Obama and some RINO’s announced a “deal” to scrap paygo and run up the deficit for never-ending unemployment benefits.

DeMint needs to filibuster so we can get a better deal next session.

But the DUmmie and liberal reaction is comedy gold.

Ruh Roh.... Troubles in paradise?

Such a shame. I hate to see these folks holidays ruined with all this toxic venom.

I wish I could buy these guys a coke, and we could recycle the bottle in perfect harmony.

We are chaining ourselves to anvils and jumping overboard because we have decided everyone is entitled to their own version of reality

That Dummie was almost lucid.

We . . . get constantly thrown under the curb.

The DUmmies are on a low-curb diet.

It's over. It's OVER!! We WON!!! That's IT for the progressives! I'm thinking labor camps! Re-education camps! Mandatory country music piped 24/7! NASCAR on every monitor, run over and over and over and over... We'll break them. BY THE SACRED NAME OF JOHN WAYNE WE'LL BREAK THEM!!!

Or, of course, it could just be a tax bill. Could go either way.

“We support massive deficits if it helps the wealthy.”

Hey DUmmies,

By my own estimation of crude numbers, the tax increase you so desperately desire for the “rich” would generate about $40-50B in revenue. That also assumes constant economic activity, so that is even at risk. Now that amount is about 2% of the current budget, or to put it in other language, it is about HALF OF THE AMOUNT SPENT VIA EARMARKS. You know, that “miniscule amount that wasn’t worth eliminating.”

What is it, miniscule or budget busting?

PJ! Your secrets are out! Check out the latest release of Wired Magazine!

Bargain Junkies Are Beating Retailers at Their Own Game

“In the economic wasteland of the past three years, the biggest success story has been a website that gets us to buy stuff we never knew we wanted: helicopter-flying lessons, hot stone massages, professional photo portraiture, obscure ethnic food, hot air balloon rides. More precisely, what we buy at Groupon—the two-year-old startup that, with projected revenue of more than $500 million this year, was called the “fastest growing company ever” in a recent Forbes cover story—is the right to buy all that stuff at a huge discount, so long as we all act fast. In other words, what Groupon sells (as its clever name indicates) is coupons, but with a social twist. It’s been such a huge moneymaker that scores of copycats have emerged, including other startups like LivingSocial and 8coupons. Established online presences like Yelp and have also jumped in; the biggest and most recent entrant is AOL, which in October announced its own Groupon clone, Wow.com.”

DUmmie alert!

Voting for the Top 10 DUmmies of 2010 is now underway; there are instructions on the ballot for those who wish to vote, but who are not members of the two conservative sites sponsoring the event. Vote here
