Here’s my Walgreens Shopping Scenario for the week of 8/25. In this scenario you’ll get over $44.31 in merchandise, after sales and coupons you’ll pay $10.15 out of pocket. That’s like getting everything for 78% off and you’ll have 6 bottles of laundry detergent, 2 toothpastes, one 2pk of toothbrushes and 20 pens!
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!

CROSSOVER SALE ALERT: I just went to Walgreens (Sat. night) and bought 6 Purex Ultra Pacs for $9.58 (they are 3/$4.79 today only) and used 3 $1/2 coupons. I paid $6.58 for 6 bags! About $1.10 each! This only works for the Ultra Pacs, not the bottles.
Thank you Victoria for taking the time to share.
so sad, no reach coupon in my coupon papers 🙁
(1) $1.50/1 Reach Toothbrush 2 pk, exp. 11/2/13 (SS 08/25/13)
Victoria,
The tags at my store says if you buy one at $4.79 get two free. Its the same for both liquid and packs.
I went to my Walgreens yesterday and had the $2.00 reach coupon. When I used it the $2.00RR would not come out. The manager came over and did a dummy transaction without using the coupon to see if the RR would spit out and it did. The manager told me that I could not use the coupon because I was going to get the $2.00 RR back. I’ve done this transaction a few weeks back and it worked… Has WAGS changed their policy??
It worked just fine for me today, Maria. Sometimes I think buying multiple items in a transaction confuses the RR machine or something. Today I bought only a 2-pack of toothbrushes, used a printable $2 off coupon, and had no issues. Spending the RRs on Purex later!
This was a great shopping scenario for me! All things I needed! My RR did not print off with the toothpaste, but I realized that I had gotten an 8oz tube of toothpaste instead of 6oz. Re-did the transaction and it worked just fine! I also only had one Purex coupon, so I only bought three bottles of Purex, used the coupon and the RR and paid $1.13 for three bottles of detergent! The bottles were a WAY better deal than the packs (18 loads vs. 24-33 loads!) Thanks Christie!
