Foiled Plans

Say hello to your last chance at free foil at Walgreens. Oh, it was great while it lasted. I remember my first free foil trip fondly.

Reynolds Wrap -- then, like it is this week -- had the 20 foot rolls on sale for 89 cents. I had a coupon -- quite a few, actually -- for $1 off any foil, excluding 25 foot rolls. I went into Walgreens, armed with my coupons, and sure enough, they went through no problem since I was buying the 20 foot rolls. Free foil. Sweet.

There have been a few foil sales since then, and Reynolds Wrap seems to have caught on. I can't blame them. Not everyone likes giving away things for free. The latest coupons exclude the 20 and 25-foot rolls, but the last set of coupons that only exclude the 25-foot size are from the February 8 SS. They expire on Saturday, April 4, as does this sale.

So hurry up and stock up on foil -- before you have to start paying for it again.
