Walgreens $5 Scenario - Week of 8/21/11


The most cost effective way to shop at Walgreens is to roll Register Rewards - spend Register Rewards on products that trigger more. I suggest checking out at the Cosmetic Counter. Multiple transaction always go smoother at a less busy register.

If you are following my $5 Scenario's you have a $1 P&G and a $4 P&G Register Reward to start this week's shopping.

Check out all of this week's Walgreens Deals.

NOTE: Word is, some store are now limiting the number of sale items you can purchase and the number of transactions allowed.  Check with the staff at your store before you shop.

  1. If you are wondering what to do with all of the little notebooks - stick a new crayon through the top & give then out at Halloween! My kids love to use them to play Blues Clues or detective!
