Below are new Walgreens scenarios. 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. Please also know that these transactions do not take into account tax. Every state taxes differently so you may need to budget a little extra to cover tax.
To see this week’s Walgreens Weekly Ad and Coupon Matchups, go HERE.
Transaction #1
Buy one Oscillococcinum Childrens 6pack, $8.99 (will receive $8.99 RR)

Total Due: $6.99 (without RR or jingle cash)
Receive: $8.99 RR (makes it $2.00 moneymaker )

Product Worth: $48.65+ tax and you will still have $8 worth of RRs to use next time!
**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! Huggies Diapers are a great deal when combined with manufacturer coupons which is a great option for moms of little ones! Just make sure to grab filler items for those extra coupons!
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..
From another site, there is supposedly a $5/1 on the Occ-eight hundred other letters-product that you listed first in the Walgreens IVC book for January. If you use that plus the printable, you’re out of pocket is $1.99 and you get the full RR back, making it a money maker and much less out of pocket to start rolling those RR’s 🙂
Instead of getting the Jet Dry, you can get the Electrasol 20pk for 3.49, use the 2.25 Q from today’s Smartsource (the one with Lean Cuisine on the front) and get a 1.50 RR in that last transaction.
Thank you for the head’s up on this Carolyn!!
If anyone has any sinex couons left, please email me at ann.martine68@ gmail dot com. Please, I really do need these!
At one walgreens in new port richey, they said sinex was not in the sale and not listed in the ad. Anyone know if this is true?
Hey Andrea – the ad for Tampa Bay doesn’t show Sinex as included so it may vary depending on the store.. I will update the ad – thanks for the head’s up!
