This post includes specific items you can purchase and coupons that you can use to maximize your dollar AND your Register Rewards at Walgreens. If you have Register Rewards to use, that will give you more options. 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.

**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..
I love when you make these scenarios except I can’t find a way to print them to take to the store. I hate rewriteing the whole thing and it will not allow a copy and paste. Am I missing something or is there an easier way. Your help is more than appreciated.
i believe there is a mistake in transaction #3 you wuld actually have to pay .99 because the total is 9.99 minus 2.00 nivea coupon leaves 7.99 minus $7 rr and i believ you would also have tax to pay in each of the other transactions leaving it a little more than $7.00 out of pocket with $6.00 in rewards for another day.
Miami: no Nivea body wash coupon in either of the RP inserts today 🙁
the nivea coupon was actually in the smart sourc insert in my newspaper.
if you are a dove fan this week there is a coupon for the shampoo and conditioner b.o.g.o and they are currently b.o.g.one half off making them 2 for half price i scored 8 bottles off shampoo and conditioner and 8 axe deodorants for a little over twenty three dollars
