Here’s my Walgreens Shopping Scenario for 2/19. If this scenario you’ll get $25.37 in merchandise, spend $7.37 out of pocket and end up with $2 in Register Rewards, and an additional $6.99 from the Just For Men Rebate.
So after the Register Reward and the Rebate everything is FREE and you make $1.62. If you have a Register Reward from a previous week use it to pay in the first Transaction to keep your out of pocket low.
*If you don’t have the seed packets in your area as a filler go with Hunt’s Tomato Sauce at .39 each. ๐

Hello, Ms. Christie, I was wondering where I could get the Seed Packets coupon. I could not find it in the walgreens website ad page. :'( BTW, it’s seed packets for planting right? Thank you so much for everything that you do
Is the seed packets regional? I can’t find it in my ad?!?
Mine is on page 6 of the full on-line ad – Yes for planting flowers and such. Must be regional.
if you don’t have them – then go with – .39 Hunts tomato sauce, that’s a pretty good deal and a cheap filler too. ๐
If I use a St Joe’s asprin RR (from a prior week purchase) to pay for a new asprin, will a new RR print? I have always wondered how the monthly deals work. Thank you!
No, sadly it won’t. But if you use it buy Goody hair ties for $2.99 you’d pay .99 for the hair ties and then get a $2 RR you could use to buy more aspirin. Even though they are monthly deals you still can’t roll them. Hope that helps. ๐
so where do u get the tylenol coupon? its not in the coupon preview for tomorrow?
It’s for Precise and it’s in my RP for tomorrow. I got it in mine – I get them on Saturday.
I Have A Question… My local Walgreen’s will be completely out of all these items within an hour from now. (It’s a small store). So, I can get rain checks for the sale prices or the B1Gl free, but when I use the rain checks will the register rewards still print out, even if it’s a month later?
The RR will only print for the duration of the sale. Most are weekly, but there are some that are longer. You can check the tag on the shelf, which states the sale dates. So if you redeem a raincheck, you will still get the sale price but no RR. Hope that helps.
So I’ve always wondered, but if you submit for rebate and you used an RR to pay for most of it, will you get back the full rebate amount? My total is usually under a dollar after coupons and RR, so I didn’t know if companies would give back (ie, $6.99 for Just for Men) if I only paid 32 cents out of pocket. Anyone done this before?
Ask for a rebate receipt. The cashier will press “special receipt” button. The receipt lists the actual amount of the item, the number your bought and the name of item. It’s what I use for my rebates since it does not include any coupon or register reward amounts used to pay for it. Works like a charm!
Found some clearance make up at my store, also bogo 50%!! I paid $3.58 for 4 lipgloss, 2 nail polish, and 4 eyeshadows! Plus the goodys rang up $2.19 got back $2RR!
The makeup was after coupons
Didn’t get the Tylenol Precise coupon this week–or the got2b Q last week. Sigh…Love my small town/rural life, but the coupon pickings are slim in the local papers!
You can subscribe to a bigger town newspaper in your state. If you subscribe out of state, you will NOT get the inserts. That is what I do, I subscribe to the Lousville Courier and get the coupons and I do not live in Louisville, it is a 2 hour drive from my town. You can also ask them if they will include the inserts before you subscribe
