Can't wait for all the free stuff tomorrow. It is about time. It seems like it has been months since they have had so much free stuff.
ReplyDeleteHi Lynda - I hope they are well stocked.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't too impressed with the ad this week. I still have my $10 RR from last week though so I plan to just pick up some other stuff I need. But I am going to do the Pepsi $10 RR again this week too!
ReplyDelete-Shannon
Hi Shannon - Think about using your $10 RR on Joint Juice. Even if you won't use it, it is a way to roll your RR so you can buy the next Pepsi deal with a $10 RR form Joint Juice.
ReplyDeleteQuite often I buy something I wouldn't usually buy, so I can roll RR. I can always find a place to donate the items my family dosen't use.
Jeri,
ReplyDeleteyou mentioned the accu-check aviva $10 coupon and the $5 coupon in diabetes and you making it free. However in the add it states there is a $5 RR given with purchase so it is really a $5 MM vs just free it seems.
Thanks for all your match ups my husband and I are saving hundreds because of your matchups and my mom us following you now too!
Natalie :)
There is a bogo IP for the joint juice pack so it could be two free!
ReplyDeleteHi Natalie - Thanks for reading. I missed the RR on the Accu-Chek. How did that happen? I'll ad it to the post.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous - I got the message the the campaign for the B1G1 on Joint Juice was over. Did you get it to print?
Thanks for the tip Jeri-
ReplyDeleteAt 10pm last night, I was finally getting to my Sunday ads and planning out my Walgreens trip for today. I'm going to go for the Club Crackers, Vitamin Schtick, Advil/ThermaCare, and Blink Tears deals instead.
Going in with a $10 RR in hand, and getting $17 back in RR from these sales will help. I'm also going to do the Pepsi Deal once again this week to get a $10 RR for next time.
-Shannon
All 4 stores I went to this morning had very limited stock. In fact 2 of the stores never got the lip balm. Hopefully their stash hasn't been put out yet. Sometimes if you go early on Sunday that will happen. If you use Splenda it is on sale for 2.99 and the All You Dec magazine has 1.00 off coupon. Great week for deals.
ReplyDeleteI just checked inside my Scalpicin and there was a free 60 minute calling card from Scalpicin. Gotta love that!!!!
ReplyDeleteJust got back from Walgreens! Spent $6.70 out of pocket. Saved $43.58! I went in with $10 RR, earned and rolled another $19 RR.
ReplyDelete-Shannon
Made 3 Wags trips today. Got the lip care, 2 Joint Juice (I love this stuff!), 2 Advils, Blink, a newspaper, Bertolli lasagna, Corn Flakes and Shredded Wheat all for $12 OOP. I used $31 in RRs and still have $19RR left. The South County store was completely out of Advil. Employees at the Kirkwood Wags had to hunt down the lip care for me, they finally found a bowl full of them somewhere. I was gonna skip the Scalpacin but if there's a chance I'll get a phone card, I'll try it - thanks, Lynda!
ReplyDeleteHas anyone been able to do the Accucheck Aviva Glucose Monitor today? I tried my luck at one Wags I have not shopped at before but they were out of the Accucheck. :l
ReplyDeleteThanks, Shannon, Lynda & CJ for sharing your shopping trips.
ReplyDeleteSo the clerk at the Wags store today told me what I am doing should be illegal. Is she kidding me?
ReplyDeleteHi Lynda - At least she used the word should. You should ask her what times she gets off work and offered to come back and teacher how to do it :) And, she even gets an employee discount!
ReplyDeleteKidding aside, if cashier understood their companies are not losing moeny, even when we take things home for free, they might be a little more coupon friendly.
Thanks to all who gave advise last week on the superbowl rewards deal, I had the cashier who said I couldn't use RRs or coupons to do the deal well good news it worked today for me! I ended up getting a better deal since the chips are cheaper this week and I had more RRs to use since I did the glucose monitor deal this morning. In all I ended up with 8 bottles of soda and 5 bags of chips and 2 free dips and it was all free since I had $18 in RRs and $2 in coupons and now I have $10RR for next week. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteLynda and Jeri-
ReplyDeleteI've had the same thing said to me before, but I've also had a Dierbergs associate who wasn't able to explain double coupons to me. Remember, cashiers are often the lowest on the pole when it comes to retail hierarchy.
And we're not doing anything that anyone else can't do or figure out on their own. And the stipulations printed on the RR's don't say anthing against it either.
Also, haven't you noticed that the majority of items on sale or with register rewards also have coupons in the same Sunday's paper? Examples: Keebler Club Crackers, Advil, Thermacare, Pepsi, Tostitos, and Blink Eye Drops ALL had coupons in the Sunday paper and all had RR's this week.
Vendors for these items negotiate deals with retailer home offices for them to be able to run these specials and coupons so that people will buy their products, use them, and hopefully buy them again when they aren't on special. Walgreens gets paid regardless, and the cashier should just be happy there are customers to ring up. Job safety!
-Shannon
Thanks, Shannon. I couldn't have said it better.
ReplyDeleteI read on another site that the lip care and the joint juice are month long deals. Does anyone know for sure?
ReplyDeleteHi Lynda - I Heart Wags and Guy with Coupons (supposedly a Walgreens employee) both are reporting they are monthly deals. But neither sites have pictures of the shelf tag advertising on these products.
ReplyDeleteThey do on the Joint Juice, but is says buy 2 to get $10 RR.
We will have to see what people are reporting next week to know for sure.
I got the accuview on Monday, I went to two stores on sunday and both were out. I tried my luck to see if they would let me use my coupons monday (the diabetes & you one expired sunday) And the friendly manager did when I explained. So I made $15 in RR between the accu-check and bayer monitors. Got joint juice, scaplicin, 2 zicam cold sore swabs, and 2 vitamin schticks (which, yes, were in a random bowl an associate had to find somewhere for me). Spent a little oop, but starting with $18 RR for next week!

Great job Natalie! It's nice to hear there are great Walgreen managers out there.
