Walgreens Scenarios 4/22/12 – 4/28/12

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.

**Disclaimer – this week I have you coming out of pocket A LOT more than normal in Transaction #1 and Transaction #2.  If you prefer to spend less money out of pocket, take a look at Transaction #1 and then add $5.00 worth of items to your cart for Transaction #3. 🙂

Transaction #1

Buy two Suavitel Fabric Softener 33.8 oz  – BOGO $2.99 for two
Buy one Filler Item priced at $0.25

Minus $5 RR from Transaction #2 (or if you are skipping transaction #2, add $5.00 worth of items to your cart to use the RR from Transaction #1)
Total Due: $0.23
Receive: $1 RR

Total Remaining RRs to apply towards next week’s ad: $1.00 RR
Total Out of Pocket for 2 transactions: $19.33 (if you do Trans 1,2 and3) OR $8.23 (if you do Trans 1 and 3) + applicable taxes for approximately $46in products. And if you use RRs from last week in Transaction #1 you will save even more!

**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!
