The most cost effective way to shop at Walgreens is to roll Register Rewards - spend Register Rewards on products that trigger more. If you're following my $5 Scenarios, you have a $3 Dial/Henkel Register Reward to start this week's shopping.

Reach Toothbrushes, in ad coupon to make them 99c, there is a printable out there for $1 off, but it gets better! HIDDEN DEAL: Buy 4 of them and a RR for $4 will spit out!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Free Tail Therapy - I had the Reach toothbrushes on my Weekly match-up list. I just tend to keep the $5 Scenario with advertised deals not to confuse newbies.
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea how pumped I am that I found this! I'm very new to couponing and I understand the concept of register rewards (actually I'm going today to earn my first ones) but I've never seen them put to use like this. I figured I would spend forever trying to figure out what products I can use them on next time.
ReplyDeleteI have a butt load of coupons as it is so just trying to get the most savings out of them was already enough of a pain for me right now as it is, so RR seemed like a giant task. Oh so helpful, thank you thank you thank you!

Hi Carrie - Have fun at Walgreens! It does seem like a duanting task to figure out how best to spend you RR.
ReplyDeleteOnce you get the hang of it, it's really not so hard, but you do need to go in with a plan.
