Here is my Walgreens Shopping Scenario for 10/16. In this scenario you’d get $39.20 in merchandise, spend $6.97 out of pocket and end up with $3 in Register Rewards. So, it’s like you are paying $3.97 for everything or about 90% OFF. 🙂
If you have the $5/1 Hydro Razor printable coupon from a few weeks back be sure to throw that into one of the scenarios for a money maker. I didn’t include it because the coupon was no longer available.
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!

Darn! My W catalina is $1/off Maxi Pads or ultrathins 28 count or higher. I am disapoointed – I was so sure I had it! LOL Happy shopping!
I had the same one as you. Darn!
i still have $2 reach toothbrush printable(exp 10/19) from awhile back. should be a money maker on the reach deal.
My Wags took the $2/1 Reach MQ with no problems. It did beep for me but after the Cashier fully inspected it and inspected the toothbrush it was determined it could be used. Yay!
I used the $2/1 too – no beeps, no problems! 🙂
Listerine pocket packs are giving a MC in addition to RR. Not sure exactly how it is working but twice I got a $1. off of one AND $2.00 off of two. And once I got just the $2. Off and once I got just the $1.00 off.
Those also printed for me this morning 🙂
Can someone tell me what the best way to do the Cover Girl deal is? For example, I have 3 of the $8/2 coupons, so if I buy 6 products will the system only take 1/2 off of which ever the lowest priced items are? I guess I don’t know whether I need to break up my transactions….. I’m planning on trying the Tru Blends products and mixing in some of the blushes in with it……thanks!!
I know this messed up some of my transactions last week, at my Wags instead of taking 50% off the least expensive items like I thought it would they take 50% off the equal value items first. For example I bought 2 Compacts ($7.99) 2 loose powder ($5.99) and 2 cheekers ($4.79) I thought the 2 cheekers and one powder would be 1/2 off since they are the least expensive, but on my receipt I guess they match up equal value items, they deducted $4, $3, and $2.4. This is why my last 8/2 Q wouldn’t work I had to go grab another item. Its actually better this way, you get more of a discount
Okay, thank you Whitney this helps a bunch! 🙂
Is the cottonnelle register reward a monthly deal? Or is it over?
I think it runs until 10/30 BUT hte Wags coupon book expires 10/22… so get your TP before then! 🙂 LOL And remember, it’s only on the purple packs.
i didn’t get any rewards for the purple packs i bought:( i wasn’t home & didn’t have all my info.. so i bought them anyway. super bummed 🙁

There were no W Maxi Pads this morning at the store I went to and no sticker on the shelf. Store associate checked in the back…none to be found. 3 “coupon ladies” with huge binders were checking out when I was there. So, they may have cleared the shelves before I got there???? I didn’t see everything in their baskets but I saw Cottonelle and Kettle Chips. The store opens at 8 a.m. I was there at 11:18 a.m. and there were none of the maxi pads to be found. ):
Had a GREAT day at Walgreens – did 3 transactions similar to yours above, adding in 2 Cottonelle 12-packs and the Schick razor (I have the $5/1 coupon). Spent $8.10 for $82.41 worth of product – a 90% savings! Thanks, Wild for Wags!
Can someone tell me where the high$5/1 Schick coupon was located…what week?
I had a successful trip to Walgreens as well, however, not one of the items I was purchasing was marked as on sale or RR etc. I had to match up pics in the flyers and coupons and then pray when I got to the register everything would work/print. Luckily I had a great clerk. I did four transactions (not all at once). I spent about $15 for $50 worth of products. My kids loved the M&Ms and the Halloween pencils.
I found Truvia on sale for 1.99 and had a $1 off coupon!
The $5/1 was a printable that was available a few weeks ago.
I was looking at the Theraflu coupon and is says 1 coupon per purchase. Does it work if you use 2 coupons? Is it up to the checker to make sure only one is used?
You will find that wording on almost every coupon. Each item you are getting is a purchase. Together they are a transaction. Hope this helps.
You are purchasing (2) so you can use (2) coupons.
Are the RR on the toilet paper only for the purple packs?
yes
okay. thank you 🙂
I just noticed there’s a $1/1 Theraflu/Triaminic Q in the walgreens oct booklet! Why didn’t anyone else see that?!!! I could’ve saved an extra two dollars on my more expensive transaction!!! I’m glad I have more theraflu mq’s to use 🙂
nevermind ladies. my eyes deceive me. i just noticed it’s for a twinpack of theraflu. 🙁 i just got so excited because i knew there was deals on theraflu and i already had more mq’s for it.
