My Thrifty Walgreens Deals

Before sales or coupons this would have cost $32.20

I was able to get it all for .90 cents

All Laundry Detergent 26-40 loads $6.99 on sale 2/$7

• use the  $2 coupon from 12/6 Red Plum
• Final Price:  $1.50each

Royal Jello .69 cents use the instore ad coupon to get them for 5 for $1 ( used as filler items so my coupon/item ratio worked out)

I then paid with $7 in catalina coupons from last week….which brought my total down to .90 cents!

WALGREENS TIPS

• One thing to remember about Walgreens RR is you can not use a ”chap stick RR” to pay for another chap stick and have another RR print.  BUT you can use a  “toothpaste” RR to pay for chap stick and have another RR print.
• Also remember that Walgreens has a coupon item ratio rule, you can only use as many coupons as you have items.  They count RR as coupons.   So if  I was only buying 4 items ( all of which had manufacture coupons which meant my item coupon ratio was already 4 to 4) I wanted to pay with a RR I would need to ad a filler item something cheap like a pencil.  This would then make my coupon ration 5 ( 4 manufacturer coupons and 1 register reward) and my item ratio 5.  I then could pay with my coupons and RR with no problem. An instore coupon does NOT count as a coupon in this ratio….just as a sale price.
• Also remember that only one RR per product will print per transaction.  For example If wanted to buy 3 bottles of Aussie shampoo.  In order to have 2 RR print for each one I had to buy them in 3 transactions.  My store is happy to let me go thru the line more than once ……but some store will limit you.
• You can not pay for sales tax with a RR
