Here’s my Walgreens Shopping Scenario for the week of 12/01. In this scenario you’ll get $39.44 in merchandise, after sales and coupons you’ll pay as little as $3.95 out of pocket and end up with a $3 RR and $1 (1,000 Balance Reward Points). That’s like getting everything for free and making 5¢!
This week we have Jingle Cash. You’ll earn an extra coupon for going over certain amounts in your transactions, so if you’re interested in doing that, check out my post HERE. If you have enough RR from this week that you would like to use, you can do everything in one transaction instead of splitting them up as I’ve done here. I’ll post couple more scenarios for Jingle Cash a little later.
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!

Is the 5off coupon na nature made is ymmv because the coupon states 5off any nature made sam-e or coq10 product
My coupon said $5 off any Nature Made. It did not specify a type.
mine says ANY nature made, but the store manager said that nature made sent them an email telling them the coupon is not intended for the vitamelts or the gummies. (somehow i don’t believe him, oh well)
This week’s deal is going to be hard to do.. Greedy people with the Nature Made deal.. All three Walgreens nearby me were out.
On transaction #4 my cashier wouldn’t let me use both $2 TRESemme coupons..she said it was giving her a coupon limit message or something like that, I can’t remember her exact wording. I didn’t question it because there was a line behind me (I didn’t do all 4 at once to hold up the line). I’m thinking this was wrong. I think I should talk to the manager. Any thoughts from anyone? It would only be $2 so it’s not a huge deal.
The only way this could happen is if you had more coupons than items. Other than that you should have been able to use it. And if you didn’t have more coupons than items she could have punched it in for you manually. Sometimes depending on the cashier I get they’ll punch in the dollar amount for the coupon.
Valerie,
Thank you for the response. That’s exactly what I was thinking. It should have been an easy fix. I did have more items then coupons. I actually bought extra Holiday Gift Sacks in this transaction. So I thought it should have been okay. Still debating if I should talk to a manager.
BTW I’m not seeing the Treseme coupon =( but I guess that’s ok cuz I ended up with 21 RRs from Black Friday. But it would be nice to still have those coupons to use my RRs for other stuff.
Can we use the Crest RR from the 3D white toothpaste last week to purchase the Crest Mouthwash or no because its the same manufacturer… I know you can not use it for the same product… but wondering if we could use it for a different Crest product and still receive the RR on the Mouthwash.
Thanks
Jen
