Walgreens $5 Scenario - Week of July 4th

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 have no Register Reward, this is still a great scenario to get started shopping at Walgreens.
