Walgreens $5 Scenario - Week of 12/19/10

The most cost effective way to shop at Walgreens is to roll your Register Rewards from week to week.  Some weeks there are a ton of Register Reward deals, other weeks not so many. 

If you budget $5 to spend  at Walgreens weekly you can save a ton of money - even if there are not great  Register Reward deals every week. 

If you are following my Walgreens $5 Scenarios,  you have a $1 Reckitt Benckiser Register Reward to start this week.

  1. Great post! Where do you find the Diabetes & You mags? I see copies online at walgreens.com

    Do you just print them from there?

  2. Hi LeAnn- Diabetes & You is a free publication you find in the Pharmacy Dept. at Walgreens. If your store doesn't have it out on diplay, ask at the pharmacy counter if they have it behind the counter.
