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 Revlon Top Speed Nail Color, 5.99 (will receive $5.00 RRs)
Use one register reward up to $5.99 here if you have one from last week to save more
Total Due: $5.99 (if you do not use any RRs)
Receive: $5 RR
Transaction #2
Buy one Crest Pro-Health Toothpaste, $3.49 (will receive $2.50 RR)
Buy one Glade, $2.99 (will receive $1.00 RR)
Buy two Hallmark cards priced at $0.99 each (will receive $2 RR)

Transaction #3

Buy one Glide Floss, $3.49 (will receive $2.50 RR)
Buy one filler item, $0.20
Use one $0.75/1 Oral-B Satin Glide Floss or Picks 11/28/2010 P&G Insert (exp 12/31/2010)
Use $5.99 RR from Transaction #2
Total Due: $0.44
Receive: $2.50 RR and $3.00 MIR (after submitting mail in rebate that will print out with receipt)
Total Out of Pocket for all 3 transactions: $5.14 + applicable taxes + the price of a stamp for your rebate form.
Product Worth: $21.14 + tax and you will still have $2.50 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!
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..
Hi,
I just have a question about transaction #2. You have:
Buy one Crest Pro-Health Toothpaste and use:
one $0.75/1 Oral-B Satin Glide Floss 11/28/2010 PG Insert
I didnt think you could use a floss coupon on toothpaste….. am I missing something? (still fairly new to all this 🙂 Thanks!
I was told today that I could NOT use a RR from last week on a product to receive a RR this week. Had a
$3 from last week to use on the toothpaste this week for a RR.
