TIP OF THE WEEK: WALGREENS REGISTER REWARDS!

You do not need to sign up or have a card to take advantage of the Walgreen's Register Rewards (RR) Program.  Basically, they will pay you to shop by giving you a print out of a coupon (when you buy a product that is on part of their RR promotional deal) at the end of your shopping transaction to use on your next purchase.

Here is an example of a transaction. (this deal is not real.  I am making it up for training purposes)

Buy a Schick Hydro Razor-1ct for $8.79
You use $5/1 coupon
Stack with $1/1 Walgreen's Booklet
Makes the total: $2.79 OOP-(out of pocket money expense you need to pay) BUT at the end of your transaction they will give you $3 in RR making the total FREE + MM (Money Maker) for this product!

ROLL THOSE REGISTER REWARDS!
To make the deal sweeter you want to "ROLL" those RR's on your next shopping trip. This is where there are differences then when you are using the EB's. 

For example:
$3.99 Dial Lotion
Use a $1/1 Coupon
Making the OOP: $2.99
Use RR $3 from the Gillette (You can use the RR from last shopping trip AS LONG AS the product that the RR generated it is not from the same manufacturer)

You earned $3 in RR which makes the item FREE after the RR!

TIPS
  • You can use a Walgreen's Booklet coupon and a manufacturer coupon in one transaction.
  • You should have more items then coupons.  Say with the above deal, You have one item, but two coupons, so you will need to buy another item. I usually throw in a Laffy taffy for $.10.
  • Sometimes you will get a print out of a coupon from the register that is a manufacturer coupon.  It is not to be stacked with another manufacturer coupon.
  • In store flyer Coupons ARE considered an In store Coupon.  It cannot be stacked with the Walgreen's Booklet coupons.
  • RR are used only in the stores.
  • Your RR will not cover tax.  If the register beeps just throw in another taffy.  The amount of RR must be equal to or more than the tax.
  • When you start out be aware you will be putting more OOP expense until you start to roll your RR rewards. 
  • You will find your RR promotional sales in the Weekly flyer.  They will show you which items receive RR. (Sometimes they show in their ad a  manufacturer coupon instead of a RR.  It can be confusing.  So just double check if the ad)
