Walgreens Info



All About Walgreens






You can find some Free and almost free items at Walgreens. But, maybe you don’t know how to “play the game”. I am here to help and show you how to do it!



REGISTER REWARDS (I usually refer to them as RR)





Register Rewards are coupons from the Catalina machine that print after you make a qualifying purchase in the same transaction. Most RRs are good on your next purchase. This how you will get items for free or almost free.



For example: This week Pert Plus for Men is on sale 2/$5, if you buy 2 you will get a Register Reward for $2, that is good on your next purchase. However, I have 2 coupons for $1.50 off each purchase for Pert Plus for Men. So, initially I will be paying $2 for 2, which by itself is a good deal. However, if you have Register Rewards from a previous transaction, like I do for the Pepsi deal, I am paying 0 out of pocket! So, that is free shampoo for my dear husband!



How you play the game



You will want to read the flyer every week. The goal is to combine the items that are on sale, with your coupons, and the Register Rewards. That is how you get the good deals. Also, when you find really good deals, go back and repeat the transaction and stock up. When you can score items for free or for pennies on the dollar, it is worth the extra trip. Plus if you don’t need the items yourself, think about donating them. Many Domestic Violene Centers would greatly appreciate toiletries, canned foods, and other items.
