I hope you are all enjoying a fabulous Mother’s Day! With it being Mother’s Day I wanted to give you an important update from the field if you are doing the Pampers deal. I didn’t want to post about this scenario until I tried it myself. 😉
If you are buying the Pampers this week, you may want to throw in a pack of wipes to get you over the $20 mark. If you do you will also get a Catalina for $5 off your next purchase of Pampers diapers over $5.This is NOT a regular Register Reward, it’s a $5 coupon and only good on Pampers diapers, but it can make for a good deal since it will print in every subsequent transaction. So here’s what you can do…
TRANSACTION #1 BUY
2 – Pampers Jumbo Packs 2/$18
1 – Pampers Wipes 60 pk $3.49 (price at my store – may vary!)
Total = $21.49
(2) -$1.50/1 Pampers Diapers or Pants — 05-01-11 PG x5/31
(1) – $.50/1 Pampers Wipes 60ct+ 05-01-11 PG x5/31
(1) -$2/1 Pampers Cruisers, Swaddlers, or Swaddlers Sensitive Diapers (Big packs or Jumbo Packs)- (5521) Infant Care Book (takes off $4)
Total = $13.99, Get Back $3 RR & $5 Catalina good off PampersDiapers
= $10.99 for everything
TRANSACTION #2 BUY
2 – Pampers Jumbo Packs 2/$18
1 – Pampers Wipes 60 pk $3.49 (price at my store – may vary!)
Total = $21.49
(1) -$1.50/1 Pampers Diapers or Pants — 05-01-11 PG x5/31
(1) – $5 Pampers Diapers Catalina Purchase
(1) – $.50/1 Pampers Wipes 60ct+ 05-01-11 PG x5/31
(1) -$2/1 Pampers Cruisers, Swaddlers, or Swaddlers Sensitive Diapers (Big packs or Jumbo Packs)- (5521) Infant Care Book (takes off $4)
Total = $10.49, Get Back $3 RR & ANOTHER $5 Catalina good off PampersDiapers
= $7.49 for everything
You could also buy the larger $5.99 pack of wipes if you choose. And the price for the 60pk will vary from store to store and you may find it for less than I did. The most important thing is to just be sure you are over the $20 mark to prompt the $5 Catalina. Also, if you have the $2/1 Pampers or if your area got the $2.50/1 Pampers you’ll have an even better deal!

What size of diapers are on sale? My walgreens people said that it was only on 4 and 5
I Bought Swaddler Sz 2 Today 🙂
It was on the Cruisers and I think Baby Dry…whatever two brands were pictured in the ad. I tried the Swaddlers and the RR didn’t print. They gave me a $3 store credit because it was easier than returning and rebuying the correct packages.
I did the swaddlers today and the RR still printed.
I bought size 3 diapers and wipes and the deal worked great for me this morning!
So if you use the $5 coupon from the first transaction, it will still prompt another as long as its over $20?
Yes it will! 🙂
Awesome! Thank you! Happy Mother’s Day!
My Walgreens wouldn’t let me use two pampers coupons plus the $5 Catalina on my second purchase.
You are using (1) coupon for (1) pack, the catalina for the (2) pack and then a then a coupon for wipes. So only (1) Manuf. coupon per item. The Infant care book is a store coupon.
Hi Christie,
I went yesterday and go the pampers deal. My store did not have the infant care booklet, but they were nice enough to use the code for me. However, the code came up as a manufacturer coupon in their system. The manager allowed it on transaction one to combine with my other Pampers coupons. When I tried to buy another pack of diapers combining my $5 printed coupon and the code, the cashier said he wouldn’t do it. Since they were both manufacturer coupons. Do you know if this was this some “glitch” in the register? It definitely said manufacturer coupon on the screen when he typed in the digits for the code. Thanks for any clarification you could give me.
So I was really disappointed because I had the 3 manuf coupons (1 bought 2 packs of Cruisers and a small bag of wipes with some other items) plus I had the Walgreen’s Baby Care Q and for the second time the Walgreens Baby Care Q wouldn’t go through and they wouldn’t except it. Why is that? I tried explaining it was a store coupon and I should be able to use both but the manager told me no and that it was only on the big and jumbo packs…hello?! Thats whats on sale!! Either way I bought them without the Walgreen’s Q but I’m sad because that’s money I should’ve saved 🙁
where did you find the infant care book? I can never find an of the coupon books.
I always ask a manager and they get a couple for me! 🙂
does anyone know if pull-ups are included in this?
Does anyone know how many diapers come in the size 5 packs in this deal?
There were 27 in the size 4 cruisers
I just bought 2 packages of diapers, no wipes, got the RR and got a $2 coupon for my next purchase of Pampers.
Happy Mother’s Day to you too!
My greatest mother’s day gift is that my toddler is now potty trained (during the day time), so I can sit back and relax! I don’t have to get out to walgreens and snag this deal! 😀 yay!
Of course I still got tons of diapers from the b1g1 deal a few months ago so I only have to worry about using those for night time 🙂
I didn’t see this post before I went this morning. I only bought the two packs of diapers so only got the $2 off coupon. BOOO! OH well! I’m out of diaper coupons too so I can’t even do the deal again. 🙁
Question…I did my first couple trips to walgreens last week and scored so great deals. I have $16 in RR to use this week even after using some during different transactions. My question is, when I use them thi week can I use say, 2 cottenelle RRs in the same transaction to buy say, pampers? I know I gotta have fillers. Also, what are the best things for fillers? I bought candy bars last week at .49 a piece…but those are dangerous to have around…I want to eat them! I looked for single pencils..no go. Thanks for any info or advice!
Yes, you can use (2) Cottonelle RR to buy Pampers as long as you have fillers. Try the clearance section for fillers. 🙂
Some of my Walgreens sell fresh fruit by the piece. I pick up a banana for 40 cents – a little steep for a banana, but okay considering the money I save on the rest of the transaction.
I saw Wet & Wild nail polish and lipstick for .69 cents
Also Wrigley’s Extra Fruit Sensations “sweet tropical” 15 stick pack rings up at .35 cents.
Just make sure that you do not use a $3 P&G RR for the pampers, or you will not get one back. Something last week was generating a $3 P&G RR, but i cannot recall what it was.
So, I had a problem with the infant coupons too BUT this transaction actually matters in which order they scan the coupons! I don’t have the coupon booklet so they enter the codes in manually. So the first time, my cashier entered the wags code first and it wouldn’t take the manufacture coupon. I made a hissy fit and the manager suggested scanning the coupons in the opposite order. It WORKED! So the cashier did the following
1. Scanned my (2) $2/1 pampers MFR Q and 0.50/1 wipes
2. Manually entered the Wags coupon code.
My total came out to 12.99 (since my wipes cost 3.49) but both catalinas printed out fine ($3 RR and $5 off next pampers purchase).
Hope that helps!
I was wondering if you could use the $5 dollar catalina and the $3 RR in the same transaction? I may not have the infant care book and was wondering if I could replace those coupons with my rr
You can NOT use the $3RR from the Pampers deal again on Pampers if you want to get another RR. You could use a RR from another non P&G source as long as you make sure you have enough items to attach the RR to (since RRs count as Manufacturer coupons).
Another question…sorry..newbie! In your scenario are you using the $5 catalina from first purchase in the next purchase? And if so, does this count as a manufacturer coupon or a store coupon? Does it need a filler item? Using it in second scenario won’t affect the RR or catalina from that purchase? It is all so confusing!
Katarra, You can use the $3 RR in the same transaction AS LONG as you only have one manufacture coupon per item purchased. So if you buy two packs of diapers and a pack of wipes you have 3 items for that transaction. If you are using the coupons Christie has listed, one diaper coupon for the first pack of diapers, the $5 printed coupon for the second pack of diapers and a wipes coupon for the wipes then you need a filler item (like a single pencil, seed packet or something else around the $0.20-.30 mark) for your $3 RR (which is a manufacture coupon) to attach to. Then you can use them all.
Diane, The $5 catalina is a manufacture coupon (it will say so on the top next to the expiration date.). Another way to tell if it is a MFC or Store coupon is that store coupons usually start with 0 and manufacture coupons start with 5 or 9 in most cases. So, as I mentioned above, it will need a filler.
I hope this helps.
Thanks Kate! That did help me out.
I bought two packs of diapers and a $0.49 bag of candy and still got the $5 catalina and the $3 RR. My total was not over $20.
I got the $5RR today and the 3RR, can I use it to buy just one pack of diapers? If I use fillers? Will I get the pack for $9 if I don’t buy 2?
Mine were ringing up as $9 each so I think it should! Never hurts to try!
I did this deal twice earlier today and got two of $5 off next purchase of Pampers. I did not think about using these to pay since I did not think it would print a new one. Question….can I use 2 of the $5 off next purchase in the same transaction if I do not use any other MQs? So… buy 2 Pampers and 1 wipes, use (2) $5 off next purchase of Pampers, (1) $.50 off wipes, and the infant care coupon (-$4)?? thanks!
i bought 2 colgate total toothbrushes are they rand up b1 g1 free, and used 2 75cents coupons. I paid 1.50 and I got the 4rr back.
Lucky you! Was there a shelf tag saying they were BOGO?
no shelf tag, I was supprised too!
The Wags in my area never got the infant care books. Has anyone ever had any luck giving the code to the cashier and having them take it?
Mine did. But then the infant care code came up in their system as a manufacturer coupon. The manager put it through for me though.
yes my store will accept the 4 digit code on only walgreens coupons.
Crud I did it earlier, and totally spaced the infant care coupon, blast I couldn’t figure out why it was so much. Do you think they would adjust my purchase? Is that lame of me to want to but hey it is 4 bucks!
does anyone have the coupon codes for the diapers and the wipes?
I want to know if during a purchase, if I use RR to pay for part or all of it, will I still receive RR from the item am buying or not? And why do certain purchases need fillers? How do you know when you need to use a filler?
Thanks a bunch
I know the wags coupon is just for diapers but does anyone know if the easy ups are included in the sale price and RR deal?
I’m new at this and my wags never has anything posted so it’s even harder. I’m trying to figure out what I can buy with the following coupons. I’m in need of diapers, wipes and swim diapers.
(2) -$1.50/1 Pampers Diapers or Pants — 05-01-11 PG x5/31
(2) – $.50/1 Pampers Wipes 60ct+ 05-01-11 PG x5/31
(2) – $1.50/1 Pampers Easy Ups Trainers, Under Jams or Splashers Swim Pants 05-01-11 PG x5/31
(1) -$2/1 Pampers Cruisers, Swaddlers, or Swaddlers Sensitive Diapers (Big packs or Jumbo Packs)- (5521) Infant Care Book
(1) – $2/1 pampers diapers or pants (it’s a manufacturer coupon exp 5/31/11, but I don’t know where I got it from)
Thank you!!!!!
If the Pampers deal doesn’t include the swim diapers, there was a coupon a few weeks ago for $2/1 Huggies swim diapers and there is a $2/1 Huggies in the May Wags coupon book so they are $4.99 each. Not a bad price!
The cashier at at the Wags I shop at told me that the Pampers coupon in the infant care book is manufactures coupon, he told me that coupon has to be sent in for the store to get the money for that coupon, I think he’s wrong! Does anyone have any ideas how to explane that this is not a manufactures coupon to a cashier? I was looking at the coupon I didn’t see an address to send it in anywhere but it does say “manufacturer coupon good only at Walgreens.” Maybe I’m wrong is this a manufacters coupon? And if its not how would I argue point that its not when the coupon says “Manufacter Coupon” on it?
Shelly- Hi I have no idea if they are or not, but in the posts I read prior to yours they said that u don’t need the coupon just the coupon code, but I think maybe it depends on the store. I hope this helps. sorry I dont have any other info for u.
RR’s and the catalina count as a manufacture coupon. Therfore, if you buy say five items, and you have a manufacture coupon for each of them and you want to use an RR (in essence you have six manufacture coupons), that’s when fillers come in. (Ie something cheap that you DO NOT use a coupon for), this week some of us used the Walgreens candy which was .49 cents. I did the diaper scenario, had a pampers coupon for each of the 3 diapers I bought plus i used a RR so then I had to add the candy.
I also used the infant care coupon, which here in salt lake, they didn’t not physically take the coupon from me, just scanned it and gave it back.
Will the RR & $5 OYNO still print if I use an RR from the Cottonelle deal that I did last week?
My Infant Care Booklet does not have the Pamper’s coupon in it. What am I missing?!
It’s a small one…I missed it the first time I looked, too. It is on the inside of the booklet, all the way on the right. I think it’s the middle coupon. There is a Pampers ad, with the coupon (small) next to it.
I have a question about the $5 Catalina. I did this deal today and my total was over $20. It did not print out the $5 Catalina. I’ve talked to my store manager and called the 800 number. No one knows what promotion this is, although I guess there was one last month. My store manager is offering to give me a $5 credit, but she’d like to know where to find something in writing on this deal. Has anyone seen anything in writing for this deal?
There were catalina ads that were printing for this offer but I don’t have a copy of it. Maybe someone else still has the catalina ad and can share it.
Thanks for the info! Do you happen to know what the dates were on this deal?
Is anyone else having an issue with the Infant Care Coupon scanning? Mine would not scan AT ALL today. They price adjusted the diapers for me, but then my total was not over $20, so I just got the $3 RR and a $2 CAT. It was a mess. Just wondering if anyone else is having this issue and what their cashiers are doing to fix it?
I first tried this deal at a Walgreens near my work, and I purchased 2 packs of size 3 cruisers and 1 pack of wipes for $3.99, so my total was over $20. For some strange reason, the register did not subtract $4 when I used my infant care booklet coupon, but instead reduced the price of the diapers from $9 to $7, making the total for the transaction below $20. Instead of getting a $5 catalina, I got a $2 catalina. I also got the $3 RR.
I just went to a Walgreens by my house and in trying to avoid what happened earlier today purchase 3 packs of size 3 cruisers for $9 each. I used the $2 coupon off the infant care booklet, which took $6 off the total. I then used the $2 cataline from earlier, the $1.50 coupon from the P^G flier, and a $1 coupon from the P&G booklet. This time around, I ended up getting the $5 off cataline and a $3 RR.
It is just really wierd how the price of the diapers was reduced in the first transaction… has this happened to anyone else?
Any idea if the Pampers $5 q will print in a test market?
anyone having an issue with a store not acceting the code?? 1 store had no problem then 2 other wouldn’t take it! Or if anyone else in Atlanta can help me find a store that will take it. I have 2 babies and was planning on buying a bunch more 🙂
