The most cost effective way to shop at Walgreens is to roll your Register Rewards from week to week. If you are following my Walgreens $5 Scenarios, you have $2 EOS and a $2 Kellogg's Register Reward to spend on this week's shopping.
Check out all of this week's Walgreens deals HERE.
Transaction #1
purchase:
(4) Sinex (20 ct.) @ $5 each = $20.00
(2) Mars Candy @ $0.89 each = $1.78 (needed as filler to use RR)
use:
(4) $4 Sinex coupon (12/26/10 P&G) - $16.00
Walgreens in-ad coupon for Mars Candy -$0.80
Kellogg's Register Reward from last week - $2.00
EOS Register Reward from last week - $2.00
= $0.98 + tax out of pocket and get a $10 P&G Register Reward
Transaction #2
pruchase:
(1) Joint Juice Glucosamine Chondroitin (20 oz) $10.00
(2) Kraft Homestyle Mac & Cheese @$1.67 = $3.34
(1) Dawn Dish Liquid $2.29
use:
(1) Joint Juice printable coupon -$1.00
(2) $1 Kraft Homestyle Mac & Cheese coupon (1/16/11 SS) - $2.00
Walgreens coupon for Kraft Homestyle in the January coupon book -$1.00
Walgreens in-ad coupon for Dawn Dish Liquid -$1.30
Register Reward from Previous Transaction -$10.00
= $0.33 + tax out of pocket and get a $10 Joint Juice RR
Even thought there is a $0.25 Dawn coupon available, you are best not to use it because you would spend more on a filler than it saves.
Transaction #3
purchase:
(1) Gillette Fusion ProGlide Razor $9.99
(1) Tom's of Maine Deodorant, Toothpaste or Mouthwash $3.99
(1) Skintimate Shave Cream $3.99
use:
(1) Gillette Fusion ProGlide Razor coupon (12/26/10 P&G) - $4.00
(1) Skintimate coupon (1/16/11 SS) - $1.00
Walgreens In-ad coupon for Skintimate -$2.00
Register Reward from previous transaction -$10.00
= $0.97 + tax out of pocket and get a $5 P&G and $3 Tom's of Maine Register Reward
Item purchase
(4) Sinex
(1) Joint Juice
(2) Kraft Homestyle Mac & Cheese
(1) Dawn Dish Liquid
(1) Gillette Razor
(1) Tom's of Maine Product
(1) Skintimate Shave Cream
(2) Mars Candy
Retail price before sales & coupons: $74.00
Total out of pocket: $2.28 + tax for a 97% savings
And $8 in Register Rewards to start next week's shopping with.
If you don't have the $4 in Register Rewards to start with, you will spend $6.28 with this scenario for a 72% savings.

Hi All,
ReplyDeleteI am gonna post some great coupons for a Giveaway in the Coupon Trader area =)
Has anyone actually gotten transaction # 1 to work for them? I have tried 4 different Walgreens and they all have refused to take the Sinex coupons.
ReplyDeleteon the above comment I posted earlier about transaction # 1. After further review I realized it does say purchase the Sinex, however, they are not listed in the ad as $5. nor are they ringing up at that price at any of my stores. They are ringing up at $7.49. I am just wondering if the Sinex is ringing up for $5.00 for anyone else. I also realize I am in a different state but I wouldn't think there would be that big a difference.
ReplyDeleteHi Diana - You have to purchase the Sinex Dayquil or Nyquil. The 20ct Sinex Dayquil is rining up for $5 here.
ReplyDeleteIn the store in my area of town. The Sinex is located with the sinus and not cold products. Good luck on finding the right product for the right price.
Thanks Jeri,
ReplyDeleteI will look tonight!
