Walgreens $5 Scenario - Week of 7/11/10

The most cost effective way to shop at Walgreens is to roll your Register Rewards from week to week.

If you are following my weekly Walgreens $5 Scenarios, you have a $5 Register Reward from last week to start with. If you don't have the Register Reward, the scenario still makes for some great deals.

Walgreens' focus this week is the start of their back to school sales. The ad is short on Register Reward deals. So you can either sit on your Register Reward for another week, or spend it on some of this week's non-Register Reward deals

Check out all of this week's Walgreens deals HERE.
