Here are the scenarios for this week’s Walgreens Ad. This post includes specific items you can purchase and coupons that you can use to maximize your dollar AND your Register Rewards at Walgreens. Please know that you do not have to follow these transactions if you do not want to. The goal of this post is to help you get an idea on how to roll your RRs from one week to the next.

**Don’t forget that Register Rewards expire very quickly and if you let them expire, you are basically throwing away money. If you are concerned you will let them expire, I would put your RRs towards paper products like toilet paper and paper towels which are hard to get dirt cheap!
Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
so the clean and clear body wash should be free, correct?
BOGO, and the Q’s are also BOGO
thank you
The blue and orange body wash is the only ones that are currently on BOGO. The walgreens on main has a bunch however the workers are kinda clueless. So be prepared for a bunch of grief at the register.
Is the Sunburnt coupon a Peelie?
its a printout

I went to the 24 hour walgreens on 52 and someone cleared shelf already and they told us the lady cleared the shelf on 19 already. Call spring hill 24 hour and they were out. Going to try one near my house. The lady at 24 hour said they don’t get a truck in until Friday,
Been at the Collier Commons store on 54 and the new store at 54 and I-75. All gone at both stores. Manager at Collier store said lady came in last night about 8 p.m. and cleared the shelves b/c they had already put up the signs and activated the deals in the register. AARRGG! This is so ridiculous and hoggish! They need to set limits on these deals. Every week it’s a frustrating search or rain checks. I wish I never had to hear the words “Let me get you a raincheck” again!
I don’t understand why people get so upset with getting rain checks. As long as you are able to get the items at some point with your coupon who cares whether it is during the sale week or not. Granted it gets frustrating to find empty shelves but as long as I am able to get my free items by using a rain check I am fine with it.
I think people are frustrated because the coupon they want expires Friday and I’m not sure how long the rainchecks are good for.
im in n.al can sumone tell me whats in front of that smart source[3/27] that has that bogo clean and clear coupon….
I found them at my walgreens (4), went to register w/ coupons and the manager would not let me use the coupons. I was told that if it already BOGO, you are not able to use the BOGO coupon. Is anyone else having this problem?
Yes I am having a problem too. First I could not find them at all. Then I found 6 bottles tonight. The cashier scanned the coupon and it would not take. He called a manager over and the manager basically said “oh well, they dont work”. I did not push it and left since it was 11:00pm. So has anyone been able to use this coupon with no problems or if there is a problem does the manager override it etc……? It appears the coupon must work because almost every store is out of stock and when I spoke to a manager Sunday night he knew all about the coupons and how the product is basically free. Do i just have bad luck?? Lol! Hopefully we can find these in stock and use the coupon by Friday!
My SS did not have the Clean & Clear Coupon so I used the $2.50/2 Listerine coupon for the reach floss that is on sale for $0.99 🙂 Love the overage!!!
