Here’s my Walgreens Shopping Scenario for 5/13. In this scenario you’ll get $24.34 in merchandise and spend $8.11 out of pocket. You’d end up with $4 in Register Rewards. So it’s like you are getting everything for $4.11! That’s about 83% OFF.
IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT THESE TRANSACTIONS
-) You can’t have more MQ than items! Blue = MQ
-) You don’t have to do these in one day, just pick up where you left off.
-) I always bring some extra fillers with me to the register, in case of an emergency!

Where can we find the Dry Idea q? The link is not bringing it up. Thanks! 🙂
can you buy more the one product with rr ( in the same transaction) and and it print them off? or will it print just one rr i want to get 8 of the Starbucks Refreshers 12oz $.99.
It will only print one RR per transaction for each product…so if you bought the Softsoap and 2 Refreshers, you would get back the Softsoap RR and ONE Refresher RR. Hope that helps!
I hope the stores are going to be getting lots of those Refreshers. I haven’t seen any in the stores yet and they are going to go super fast.

Yes, I’m sure they will run out of stock quickly!
Be sure to look all over your store. I kept an eye out while doing my shopping last week and found them all over the stores. The two locations that I looked at had them in at least 3 different areas. They were in the cold case, on an end cap near the sodas, way in the back by the pharmacy and up front by the cash registers. I’ve noticed before that they tend to do this when it’s a really hot item. I wonder if it’s to slow down the sale of them because most people won’t take the time to walk all over the store!
Last night at Walgreens I sold a lady 52 of the Refreshers. She had the coupons. I didn’t know about the RR deal starting today until after she left. (or I would have limited her) I almost fell over when I realized she should have waited one more day. Actually I hope she never finds out and then she won’t feel so awful! She cleared the cooler BUT I went in back and we had tons more. So if you don’t see it on the shelves or in the cooler section, just ask an employee to check for you. We all should have plenty for at least the beginning of the week.
The most of 1 coupon I have ever had of one coupon is 8 playtex and just mailed to a friend. 52?! If she has that many how did she not know of the deal coming? How well…
Brenda, thanks so much for your reply! I will be on the lookout around the store!
always ask to see if u can place a special order it never hurts to ask they always do it for me just an idea!!
my store still does not have any in stock or the pepsi next. does anyone know if the midnite and natureleif are rolling or do you have to buy one at a time. I know the RR has both names on it.
Just a heads up, last night I was told by one of our Walgreen’s managers that our area won’t have the Starbucks Refreshers. HE said only the coast areas would have them. I’m smack dab in the middle of the US in KS.
Our stores in NE FL don’t have them…
We have them in North Alabama, but on the Raspberry Pomegranate.
We have them at the stores in Dallas, TX.
We have the Refreshers in Nebraska.
Stocked in Iowa
We had some in Montana (not alot) and the cashier said one person came in first thing this morning and bought them all. Hope Pepsi’s going to restock alot of them. The cooler with drinks only has 2 rows and the one next to the cashier is full of pepsi Next.
I live just outside St Louis, MO and the 6 or Walgreens I’ve been to over the past couple weeks all had A LOT of them in stock. I believe the manager you spoke to was misinformed.
Pittsburgh PA area and the only store that DOESN’T have them is walmart.
My Wags had quite a few Starbucks drinks in the cold case, so I was able to use my last “free” coupon from the pepsi insert. Also had a large amount of the Naturelief menstrual and the chewables. Pleasantly surprised to see shelves still stocked with the Kotex U and Depends for the May RR deals, and I just got a 2.00 Depend coupon in the mail inside a product sample. The Aquafresh toothpaste Bonus Buy rang up with no issues and the cashier adjusted my 1.00 coupon with no problems. Stocked up on the Nice jello. My daughter makes it in her microwave in her dorm room. I was blessed to have such a pleasant trip today! I missed out on the Schick razor deal–I didn’t get the coupon in my insert. But there will be other deals to come!
Starbucks Refreshers are not available in our area.
Did get the Dry Idea BOGO an used the $2 on 2 coupon. May them 99 cents each.
Tried to get the One Touch meter an use the coupon in the Walgreen book an a mfg coupon an it would not take both. Think it was the way the clerk was ringing up the coupons. Not sure.
Hope every one is having a HAPPY MOTHERS DAY
i found the starbucks refreshers at a bp gas station and they were on sale 2/1.50
I have quite a bit Walgreens in my city and not one of them are carrying the starbucks refreshers yet! 🙁 Does anyone know if they are substituting it for another drink?
Most grocery stores sell these, including Walmart and gas stations. CVS also sells these in my area. I went to my Giant Eagle (had to go two days in a row due to coupon policy) and purchased 20, didn’t even pay at for some reason. When I got some at Walgreens, I paid tax. It’s strange.
*tax…sorry
Head ups. There is a deal for Coffeemate at $2.50:
buy 2, get $1 RR
buy 3, get $2 RR
buy 4, get $4 RR
Had some BOGO coupons I printed a while ago, along with the .50 cents coupons.
Bought 4 @ $2.50
– 2 BOGO (only took $2.10 off – maximum)
– 2 .50
Paid $4.80
Received $4 RR, so .20 each!!!!
Also, I preordered my Refreshers, so didn’t deplete the stock. The manager was please because she was able to order extra for everyone else. 🙂
Thanks for sharing, I have those BOGO coupons that are expiring soon.
was the coffemate liquid or powder?
Liquid. Didn’t check the powder.
Thanks so much for the info. I just got back from Wags and it worked like a charm! I <3 Coffee Mate! 🙂
I was also lucky to get some AquaFresh
The meter not ringing up both coupons is because they need to adjust the man coupon down a penny. It took a while to figure it out at my store. Wags coupon 1st, man coupon 2nd.
I live in a small city in southern CA and they don’t have the starbucks. It is so weird cause when there is a new item, my walgreens are always one of the first one to get it. Thus, I was surprised that there was none at my walgreens. Maybe they will get it soon this week. Hopefully.
As usual…someone who is greedy…went in at 6:30 and took all the starbucks refreshers in fridge. Cashier said now there is a limit because people are selfish and they put a limit of 3 per customer!…I am glad, because it is so frustrating to get there at 7:30 and one person takes everything and then brags about it …This is going to ruin it for us.
my store had plenty of the refreshers,…I was concerned since the security guard is always drinking one of those whenever I see him, so I was sure they would be out. Thankfully they had plenty of the strawberry lemonade…i guess he doesn’t like that flavor LOL
They had plenty of the naturelief and the midnite.
Keep an eye out for clearance Bic women’s razors. The new Soleil Twist was clearances for $3.79 and BOGO50% and the Bic Citron was clearanced for $3.49. Got all three for 20 cents. And the Daily Feats coupon definitely works before coupons.
Our Walgreens had unscented Dry Idea deodorant on clearance for 2.29 and it rang up B1G1 Free as well. I used the $2 off 2 coupon and paid 29 cents for two deodorants! Woohoo!
Won’t Walmart price match the 99 cent price? No RR that way, but still a good deal with $1 off manq — sorta like the FREE coupons.
For the first time ever, I actually saw shelf clearers in action. They had the last for Starbucks and about 15 Nature relief. I told them that I just came in for 1 starbucks and 1 nature relief. They wouldn’t even let me have 1 of anything! There were a group of 4 of them with one cart. I’m so disgusted that I think I’m done with Walgreens. The greed and rudeness I’ve been seeing lately is starting to turn me off couponing, and I’ve been doing this for about 20 years. Yuck! it’s not fun anymore.
That sucks!Rude. Hang in there, old witches will get a big bowl of Karma…
You’re right. Thanks for letting me vent!!
Any one have trouble with RR from Kotex U. I did two purchases and neither one printed the RR for me and I don’t know what to do now that I am home – I just realized that I did not get them. Is there a number to call or should I go back to the Walgreens I made the purchase? They will maybe say that I did get them – what now? Any help???
Call Catalina. 1-888-8COUPON and press 3 if you’re a consumer. Have your receipts ready.
Hi Kelly, did you by chance get the other kind (can’t recall the name)? The RR is for the “sleek” variety and the boxes look the same. I wish they would of had the RR for both types.
Just an update…went to my local store and the Sleek type were OOS. They did have a tag stating that they were substituting with the “Click” (think that is the name) variety as they have a shortage of the Sleek kind. I didn’t test to see if the RR would print for that type though as I was in a rush. I’m in Louisiana btw.
well i have REALLY GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!! THE STARBUCKS REFRESHERS ARE ROLLIN I TRIED IT FOR THE HECK OF IT AND SURE ENOUGH IT WORKED JUST ORDER PLENTY FROM THE PEPSI GUY PLEASE DONT CLEAR THE SHELVES JUST ASK YOUR MANAGER AT THE STORE FOR A SPECIAL ORDER AND HOPEFULLY U HAVE A GOOD EXPERIENCE AND RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR STORE ITS A BIG HELP FOR ME.
Did not roll for me yesterday…
UPDATE THE STORE CALLED ME THIS MORNING AND TOLD ME IT STOPPED ROLLING LAST NIGHT THEY MUST OF CAUGHT ON DANG THEM
Thanks Jenny I will do that today – hope it works – can’t believe I left without $6 – I must think I am made of money!
My area of Corpus Christi, Texas does not carry them I’ve called all walgreens and our local pepsi delivery warehouse and they dont even have them! bummer! Gonna have my friend in Houston check if they have them there.
alyssa-we have them in San Antonio.
Got them in Houston.
They got a decent little stock around Southeast Iowa and the shelves weren’t cleared out or anything. Yay! I have some great Walgreens!
Anyone have any good ideas for cheap fillers this week? I am not interested in the jello…
