Walgreens Updates From the Field 3/16

by Christie Bisbee on March 16, 2014

MucinexHere are some updates from my trip to Walgreens that will hopefully make your trip easier!

MUCINEX DEAL: Here’s some good news for you on the Mucinex deal. This one is still giving $3 (3,000 Walgreens Balance Rewards Points) upon purchase. That makes this one a nice little Money Maker. You’ll have a 50¢ Money Maker with just the coupon and points and a $3 Money Maker if you also submit for the Mail In Rebate.

Buy (1) Mucinex 24-Hr. Allergy Relief 5 ct $7.50
$5/1 Mucinex Allergy Product, (SS 03/16/14) (SS 02/23/14)
Total = $2.50, Get Back $3 (3,000 pts)
= 50¢ MONEY MAKER
Submit for $2.50 MIR Mucinex Allergy Product, exp. 4/6/14 (SS 02/23/14 R)
= $3 MONEY MAKER! 🙂

ShotzSHOTZ REGISTER REWARD: The Register Reward for Shotz is not printing for any of the flavors. Looks like for some reason they weren’t programmed to work properly. My guess is that this will be fixed at some point this week but for right now, hold off on purchasing these.

If you did purchase one I’d return it to the store or bring it back along with a copy of the ad. I’ve updated my Walgreens Shopping Scenarios to reflect this.

Happy CashHAPPY CASH: Good news on the Happy Cash Offer! We can use Balance Rewards points to pay and we’ll still get our Happy Cash. You can also use Register Rewards to pay or manufacture’s coupons to lower your costs. It’s only discounts like a discount for 15% off AARP or Walgreens coupons that will impact your totals. Not sure how to make the most of this Happy Cash offer? Check out my Happy Cash scenarios HERE. You can get some really super deals.

Right Guard panorama4wRIGHT GUARD: If you missed my post this morning, we have a nice printable for Right Guard. Just don’t wait to print it as who knows how much longer it’ll be around!

Walgreens Deals (thru 3/29)
Buy (2) Right Guard AP/Deo, 2/$6 Sale Price
(1) $1/2 Right Guard or Dry idea Antiperspirant/Deodorant, 1.7 to 4 oz (5719), March Coupon Book

read that if you scan the barcode on the bottle of the shotz, that the RR will print. won’t print if you scan the paper packaging barcode.

That’s interesting! I’ll have to try that tomorrow. Fingers crossed. 😉

Lily, you’re wonderful! I went to my Walgreens and had 2 of the Shotz and the lady said “Don’t even bother because the register reward hasn’t been printing.” I said “Just bear with me, I want to try something.” She was shaking her head, but scanned the code on the bottles (not the box, just like you said to do) and it worked perfectly!!! She was shocked and said she’d have to remember that for the next person that would try it. So thank you, Lily, great suggestion!

I had my cashier scan the barcode on the bottle and the computer said that the item was not in the system. She then scanned the barcode on the paper packaging and it rang up. It did print the RR though. It was funny because my cashier seemed to be as happy as I was that it printed.

Happy Cash did not print for me even though I reached over $30 subtotal (already factoring in Wags coupons). I heard someone else said theirs did not print either. My subtotal showed after my mfr. coupons were deducted even though mfr. coupons are not included toward the $30 total.

When I went I got the Shotz and it didn’t give me the $5 RR and I also spent the $20 for the olay and old spice and it didn’t print the $5 RR for that either. Also before manufactures coupons was $29.94, does anyone know if it would have triggered the Happy Cash or are they strict on the $30??

Reply

Dianne March 17, 2014 at 9:42 am

You do have to hit at least $30 at Walgreen’s or it will not trigger any threshold. Also, which happened to me once, I picked up something from the cooler that was considered dairy but wasn’t dairy and that was why it didn’t trigger either. Just an FYI.

I did the shotz, bought 3 old spice deo and 3 old spice sprays,also 3 secret deos and 3 sprays and none of them gave me the RR. I did this 3 transactions…..manager told me to call cust service who told me to cantact catalina which I did. They took all my info and said they would take 10 – 12 days to see if my purchases qualified for RR. So now I amwondering if I should just return it all???

This deal ended 3/15

Christie March 16, 2014 at 7:19 pm

I believe Samantha is referring to the Register Reward deal for Old Spice and Secret that’s on page 7 of the ad.

SAMANTHA March 16, 2014 at 11:27 pm

Yes Christie that’s the deal I am referring to!! Bad day at wags for me….gonna return it all tomorrow. 🙁

I bought one package of Shotz this morning and the RR didn’t print. I called the store and told them (didn’t check before I left) and they said to come back anytime during the day and they would take care of it. I went back a few hours later and the manager re-did the transaction and the RR printed. She gave me the RR and voided the transaction.

Bought 4 mucinex and some fillers and got $10 happy cash. I used 4 coupons for mucinex and some rr from last week and received 12000 points for mucinex.

Tori March 16, 2014 at 9:33 pm

Great minds think alike! I bought 4 Mucinex, 1 filler, and used a $10 RR to pay. I received 12,000 points and a $10 Happy Cash coupon! Didn’t even realise I was spending $30 (of course, I used 4 coupons), so I was quite surprised when I got the Happy cash.

Reply

Janet March 16, 2014 at 10:25 pm

How did you get $10 in Happy Cash? You only spent $30, so shouldn’t you have gotten $5 Happy Cash?

Reply

Tori March 17, 2014 at 12:26 am

You’re completely right, Janet. I have no idea how I got it, all I know is I bought 4 Mucinex ($30 exactly) and got $10 Happy Cash back. Maybe a glitch in their system, or maybe I’m missing something, but I’m glad I got it! 🙂

Vanessa March 17, 2014 at 12:27 am

Oh I so wish I had seen this before I went, between the $5 coupon and the 3000 points plus the $2.50 MIR and the Happy Cash this is a great Money Maker!!

You need a small filler to use the rr and Yes you will get 12000 points and happy cash. Yesterday it was giving $10 happy cash on $30 purchase. I don’t know about today.

I also purchased the Pomegranate Shotz and didn’t get the RR, but went to another store later and bought the acai and it worked!?? It is getting more and more complicated and time consuming to shop at Walgreens. So, thank you Christie for all your help to make it a little less so!
