Here is my Walgreens Shopping Scenario for 8/7. I’ve been traveling so it’s been a little crazy, but here it is!
In this scenario you’d get $21.31 in merchandise, spend $4.31 out of pocket and end up with $3 in Register Rewards. So, it’s like you are paying $1.31 for everything! Happy Shopping! 😉
IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT THESE TRANSACTIONS
-) You can’t have more MQ than items!
-) You don’t have to do these in one day, just pick up where you left off.
-) Blue are MQ, Red are Store Qs and are not included in your coupon count.
-) I always bring some extra fillers with me to the register, in case of an emergency!

I have to buy something else in transaction 3 to get my amount past $4 since I have an herbal and an Aussie free product Q!
Buy some candy bars. My calculations are that you need $2.00 so buy 4 candy bars that are on sale 2/1 makes them 4/2. I could be wrong on my math so don’t hold it against me!!! LOL Or you can buy some cheap school supplies. Happy Shopping!!!

Buy 1 Green Giant Green Beans – 69 cents (w/in ad coupon)
thank you for posting. I was just going through my things I wanted to buy and was wondering if in-ad coupons counted because the last time I tried it, the manager made it seem like the in-ad coupon counted (but she may have not understood what I said and I didn’t have the in-ad coupon ready)….

***wasn’t sure if it would work because of the 2 listerine’s, but I’m not using the listerine RR on the next listerine.***
Yup! That looks like it will work 🙂
I didn’t get the Listerine for kids Q in my paper! I went on a search and found 1/1 at http://www.listerinekids.com/
Hope this helps!
Can I use a RR from Pantene on the Keri?
They are not listed together in a deal so I would say yes.
Yep – 2 different companies.
I went shopping at Walgreens at about 6:30 am. However because I did this I made sure that I got the smart rinse. My Kerri is not on sale until Sat during Saturdate, did everyone elses say the same thing?
For those that have both the Aussie and Herbal Essence free coupon…the register reward reads from P&G. So, in my opinion I would not do both in the same transaction or back to back transactions. To make sure that you get both.
Is the Keri Deal for the 13th only or can i use it today to get the 5 RR? thanks!
I just did the Keri deal and it worked today, price $5.99
I hate that coupons are regional. I got a $1/2 Ban deodorant and no red plum. Darn.
My NW IN Walgreens didn’t get and don’t plan on receiving the Keri lotion. The $1 coupon for Colgate 360 toothbrush is for the “sensitive pre-relief” – the sale one is 360 “clean”.Clerk didn’t know what the Infant Care Booklet was- wouldn’t type in the code number. This is why I prefer CVS.
my walgreens was out of the Keri, and I was told the RR were not printing until Saturday anyway. They were also out of the Skinny Cow, and when I asked I was told it was not a product they carried. I then showed them their sales flyer with the Skinny Cow in it. all I got was a shrug….
That would be wrong. They are printing now. However, I’m sure they’d love for you to buy them on Saturday because that’s the only day the BA (cashier in cosmetics) will make a little commission on it.
I talked with my favorite BA today. All of South Puget Sound (Washington) area will not have the Keri product or RRs until tomorrow. As of 4 pm, my store had not received their shipment via UPS.
Other local area stores have received their product – in small quantities. It will be limited!
Another reason to write to Walgreen’s corporate office. 🙂
Keri Lotion Deal is start on last week.
I bought it last week but the price was $6.99 and got $5 RR then I bought it yerterday because I still have 1 coupon left and surprisingly the price was $5.99 and got $5 RR!
No Keri lotion on sale its 6.99 here. in the ad here it shows it on sale for 5.99 on the 13th… didnt get it cuz i really didnt need it… would of bought it if it made a mm tho
So I have been wondering but no one ever answers – what happens if I use a Catalina coupon (say for Reach toothbrushes) for a deal that has Reach toothbrushes? Will I still get the RR back? Or does that Catalina coupon act like a Catalina RR and block the RR?
The catalina coupon is a coupon, you’ll only possibly have a problem if it’s for the same $ amount. $2 coupon & $2 RR.
I went to 2 different Walgreen’s this morning and they were completely wiped out of the Keri lotion! I even checked at one yesterday and they had none in stock! It’s getting kind of ridiculous, I just hope more gets shipped in later this week. Do you think Walmart would price match to .99 or 5.99?
Walmart will price match to 5.99
They don’t price match the RR.
Went early and got 1 Keri at one wags and 2 at another. Both stores were out by 9:00. Love the $ makers! Also do the Huggies wipes it worked! buy huggies big pack wipes, $5.99, minus $2.00 in Aug monthly coupon, minus $2.00 infant coupon and minus $.50 MQ. got it for $1.49! Also, good deal on the progresso soup, vergtable beef. I know smiths and other stores have them on sale for $1 sometimes but they usually don’t put the veg beef on sale. used a $1 colgate 360 coupon and a $1 colgate toothpaste coupon, i think they were in an “All You” magazine.
Dianne, that won’t work at my Walgreens. If you got the Catalina for buying Reach, then you can’t use it on Reach and expect another coupon or Catalina or RR when using it on Reach.
I bought the Crayola crayons, used the $2 RR from last weeks Crayola markers, and received my $1 RR for the crayons. It seems it shouldn’t make a difference unless it is the same deal. I’ve used one PG RR to pay for another PG deal and still received the second RR.
The past 2 weekends I have gone to my 24 hour wags at midnight to grab my stuff. It only sucks cause the poor cashier has to manually enter the sale prices…but both times the RR’s have printed for me 🙂 It is worth it to me cause I am tired of stuff being cleared off shelves because they only have a few products in stock, plus I am not a morning person either 🙂
Had serious coupon beeping problems today. Keri, Huggies wipes, and Softsoap coupons beeped saying didn’t buy product. Crayola coupon beeped saying it was expired (ex 12/2011). Crazy because I bought exactly to the coupon specifications!!
The cashier punched it in because it was obvious I bought the products. Kinda was good that this happened. Then I can reinforce that their computer is NOT infallible. 🙂
Great trip to Walgreens this morning. I also did the Huggies wipes deal and worked just fine.
Ok, so I tried to do the Softsoap bodywash deal -b1,g1, use 2 $1/1 mq’s and 2 $1/1 coupon from the Walgreens Summer Beauty Guide…. but the register beeped. Ends up that the 2 coupons from the Summer Beauty Guide are manufacturer’s coupons! 🙁 Still a great deal but not as great as I had hoped for…
Went to 3 diffent Walgreens. One store had 1 bottle of Keri Lotion left and placed in on the same shelf as clearance area. No sign, but it’s on sale for $5.99 used $2 Q got $5 RR. Another store didn’t have the lotion. The last store had at least 40 bottles at the entrance of the store. Again no sale sign. It was $5.99 used $2 got $5 RR.
was able to get almost everything on my list
the coupon was for 360 sensitive and those were ringing up 4.99 each. would have tried it to see if I still got the RR but didn’t need any toothbrushes.
keri MM was nice, my wags had over 20 of them in stock. Only found 3 of the Listerine 🙁 sucks cuz i got way more coupons. will have to try a different wags.
the walgreens packing tape, the ad said the 27yd was on sale, yet my store only carried the 24 yd. manager said the in ad coupon wouldnt work, so i didnt buy it 🙁 i think thats it for my trip was pretty easy. my typical favorite manager was working and none of my regular cashiers were working. but the cashier was good, and took all my coupons without batting an eye. Keri coupon beeped when scanned the 1st 2 times. then it took it on the 3rd try. he would have manually entered them though since when it beeped he looked at it and said you got what was pictured
Your the best! I print my paper and head up to walgreens with my coupons. Easy as pie. Thank you
I love your list! I tried it out today and I purchased everything. I did have trouble finding the Keri lotion, so I called ahead after having my “fail” with the lotion. In addition to the list provided, I purchased the all purpose paper @ $1.99 and the manager refused to use my $2.00RR because the paper was $1.99. He said that the total had to be exact. I used a filler item after he told me the news. Was he giving me a hard time because I don’t recall that being apart of their policy.
all of my RR’s printed fine, and there was plenty of keri lotion this morning (at midnight) and listerine. got two keri and two listerines. and the manager was the best walgreens manager and employee i have ever encountered, EVER. I will definitely make it a habit to go on Sat night shortly before midnight to get the stuff in the cart and wait til after 12 midnight to check out!
I have a question about RR. Say my RR is for $3, what happens if I don’t spend $3..is the overage just lost?
Walgreens will not let you use the RR unless you hit the exact amount. I tried picking up some snacks and got a .99 can of pringles and she wouldn’t let me use/it didn’t work my $1 RR. So I bought a tiny $1 bag of chips and it worked.
