Walgreens Shopping 101

by Tiff on March 3, 2011

In Ad Coupons:
These are coupon in the weekly store circular
There is a limit listed on the coupon
These are considered Walgreens Store coupons
Can be stacked with a Manufacturer’s Coupon

Instant Value Coupons:
Monthly Coupon booklets located in store usually near the ads
Considered Walgreens Store Coupons
Can be stacked with a manufacturer’s coupon

Register Rewards: ( RR)
–In the Weekly ad, items will be listed as giving a register reward
–These are catalina coupons in x amount good off your next order
–There are no limits on items you can buy for RR, however, these can only be 1 per transaction, and can not be rolled. ( see below)
–These Can NOT be rolled. ( If you buy item A and get a RR, and then buy another item A and use the RR, you will NOT receive another RR for the second item A) This is why it is best to rotate your items if you want multiple.
–You will only get 1 RR for the SAME deal in the SAME transaction. ( if you buy 2 A items in the same transaction, you will only receive 1 RR)
–You can use coupons and pay with a RR!

Walgreens coupon policy states that you can NOT have more coupons than items in a single transaction.
–So, if you only have 1 item and are paying with a manufacturer coupon, and a register reward, you will need to add a filler item. ( This also applies to In Ad Coupons, And store coupons, or etc.) A Filler item can be anything. If you need something anyways, then just add that, but if not, look for something CHEAP such as a single piece of candy, cheap pack of gum, or even a single pencil.

***In order to maximize your savings, scan in the following order:***
1. Manufacturer Coupons
2. Walgreens Coupons
3. Then any Register Rewards

You can find Walgreen’s Coupon Policy HERE. Print it and keep it with you if you ever run into any problems!

Do you clip the Walgreen Coupons from the store ad each week?
