Walgreens 101

Walgreens 101
  • Walgreens in-ad coupons 
    • nearly always state a limit on the number of products you may purchase using the coupon. 
    • entitles you to purchase iced tea at the discounted price of two for $1.00 and states, “Limit 4″, you may purchase up to four iced teas at the price of $0.50 each.
    •  If you wish to purchase more than the limit states on the coupon, break your items into two separate transactions. 
  • Your store has the right to limit the number of items you purchase.
  • When stacking a Walgreens coupon with a manufacturer coupon, it is important to remember to hand the cashier your manufacturer coupons first, followed by store coupons.
    • When you present the manufacturer coupon first, the full retail price of the “free” item will be subtracted from your total. 
    • If you present the in-ad coupon first, the products will be discounted first and your BOGO coupon will deduct only the lesser price from your total. 
  • So, it’s manufacturer coupons first, in-ad coupons second and then Register Rewards last.
  • Register Rewards (abbreviated RR)
    • Is a checkout-coupon program much like the Catalina program.
    • It is good on almost anything in the store on a future shopping trip. 
    • Rolling Register Rewards have a limit: 
      • You can earn one Register Reward per offer per transaction. 
        • Example if toothbrushes are producing $2 RR and you want to buy two of them, you’ll must separate your order into two transactions.
        • If you purchase both toothpastes in one shopping order, you will only receive one $2.00 Register Reward.
      • RR do not "roll" if: 
        • if you use the RR on the same item or brand
  • Balance Reward Points
    • You will not earn Points in a transaction in which you redeem Points.
    • You will earn Points in a transaction in which you use Register Rewards as payment.
    • You will earn Register Rewards in a transaction in which you redeem Points
  • The cash register at Walgreens will not allow the cashier to accept more manufacturer coupons than total products purchased.
    • Register Rewards used as payment are considered manufacturer coupons. 
    • In order for the register to not beep you need to put in a filler ex. $.20 pencil etc.
