UPDATE: It looks like the Scalpicin coupons expired on 2/1, so you won't want to print and try to use those the rest of the week.
A couple of notes since this is the first Walgreens post. Walgreens doesn't double coupons but every store I have shopped at takes internet printed coupons. I will list all of the best deals I see, but the list is not all inclusive. I will try to explain some scenarios when applicable to "roll" your Register Rewards (RRs) to get more products with as little money out of pocket as possible.
The idea of "rolling" RRs is using a RR from one purchase to get another product and still get a RR. You cannot use the same RR over and over, for example this week you cannot use the Vitamin Lip Care RR to buy another Vitamin Lip Care RR and receive another RR. As long as the products do not have the same manufacturer, you can use it to buy another product and still get a new RR.
Register Rewards are considered manufacturer coupons and at Walgreens you need to have more items than manufacturer coupons in a transaction, so we will be using "fillers" cheap items to be able to use all of our coupons. This week I'll be using the $.29 Russell Stover Valentine's candy, but feel free to use any thing cheap that you would like. Also, your purchase before taxes has to be more than the RR is for or the register won't accept the RR.
Here are the best deals:
Blink Tears, .34 or .5 oz. $7.99
Use $2/1 coupon found in 1/31 RP or Printable coupon here (must sign in first) or keep an eye out for peelies as I saw a few on products at the store today.
Spend $5.99 - $7.99, get $8 RR = Free after RR or up to $2 money maker!
Scalpicin Medicated Wipes, 12 pack $5.99
$1/1 printable coupon here (this coupon only prints when using Internet Explorer)
Spend $4.99 - $5.99, get $6 RR = Free after RR or $1 money maker!
Joint Juice 30 count, .25 oz. each drink mix $10
No coupons to use for this one but receive a $10 RR good on your next purchase.
Spend $10, get $10 RR = Free after RR!
Zicam Cold Sore Swabs, 10 count $10
Use $3/1 coupon found on package
Spend $7, get $7 RR = Free after RR!
Vitamin Schtick Lip Care, .14 oz. $1.99
No coupons to use for this one but receive a $2 RR good on your next purchase.
Spend $1.99, get $2 RR = Free after RR!
Russell Stover Valentine Candy, .87 to 1.25 oz. $.29 each
Limit 6 per transaction.
No coupon needed, just a great filler item when putting together scenarios this week.
This is an awesome week to start shopping Walgreens RR deals.
This is how I would start, I usually do at most 3 transactions per trip to the store to try to not be too big of a pain. That usually means that on a week like this week, I make several trips to the store throughout the week.
Transaction #1:
Vitamin Schtick Lip Care, $1.99
No coupons to use.
Spend $1.99 plus tax get, $2 RR
Transaction #2:
Scalipicin Medicated Wipes, $5.99
Russell Stover Candy, $.29 (we need a filler since will be using a RR and a coupon, so we need 2 items)
Use $1/1 Printable Coupon linked to above and $2 RR from Vitamin Lip Care
Spend $3.28 plus tax, get $6 RR
Transaction #3:
Zicam Cold Sore Swabs $10
Russell Stover Candy, $.29 (again, we need a filler)
Use $3/1 peelie found on product and $6 RR from Scalpicin Wipes
Spend $1.29 plus tax, get $7 RR
Transaction #4:
Blink Tears, $7.99
Vitamin Schtick Lip Care, $1.99
Use $2/1 coupon from 1/31 RP and $7 RR Zicam RR
Spend $.98 plus tax, get $8 RR for Blink Tears and $2 RR for Vitamin Lip Care
Transaction #5:
Joint Juice, $10
Russell Stover Candy, $.29 (again, we need a filler)
Use $8 RR for Blink Tears and $2 RR for Vitamin Lip Care
Spend $.29 plus tax. get $10 RR
You now have a $10 RR from Joint Juice that you can use to buy other RR deals or anything you would like as long as your total is $10 or more!
Repeat as many times as you wish.
If you did the above transactions I listed out, you will end up with:
2 Vitamin Lip Cares
1 Scalpicin Wipes
1 Zicam Cold Sore Treatment
1 Blink Tears
1 Joint Juice Drink Mix
3 Russell Stover Candy
$10 RR to use on whatever you'd like
all for only $7.83 out of pocket plus tax (they charge tax on before coupon prices)!
There are plenty of other good deals to be had this week, but I wanted to start smaller and not overwhelm you too much.
Also, while you're doing all of your Walgreens shopping this week, keep your eyes open for this book...
It is the Walgreens coupon book for the month of February with tons of Walgreens store coupons in it that you can stack with manufacturer coupons. They are free to pick up and can be found throughout the store, sometimes up by the registers, sometimes on endcaps, it really varies by location where they are found, so keep a lookout for them.
Let me know how your Walgreens deals go - Happy Shopping!
