It is a great week at Walgreens that leaves you with over $10 in register rewards after three transactions! Use them in a fourth transaction this week or save for them for your first transaction next week. This post includes specific items you can purchase and coupons that you can use to maximize your dollar AND your Register Rewards at Walgreens. 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.

**Also – Don’t forget that your RRs will expire in a few weeks 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, paper towels, diapers, etc 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..
Curious if anyone else had a problem with the Lysol spend $20 deal this week at WAGS. I bought 4 Lysol wipe double packs, and 2 Lysol spray double packs. No problem using $1/2 Lysol Wipe coupon, but they wouldn’t let me use a $1/1 Lysol Spray coupon on the spray on the other two. They first said it’s because the spray was free, and I pointed out one pack was $3, the other $4, so clearly it was the spray that cost $4, and the wipes were free, but they still wouldn’t let me use the spray coupon. They even tried to manually enter it, and the register wouldn’t take it. Any ideas on why this may have been?
I didn’t take a picture but this is my score today on both CVS and Walgreens. Whoo-hoo:
