Walgreens

Hey friends!

I've had a lot of you asking about how the RR's (register rewards) work at Walgreens...here goes. Each month certain items have RR's. Which means if you purchase that item - you'll receive a coupon when you check out for a certain $ amount to use off your next purchase. Here's how I worked this this week:

Purchased:
Vaseline Infusion Lotion for $6.99 (used $1 off coupon in AJC)
Received:
$7 RR (basically made $1 and got the lotion for free)

Purchased:
MVP Razor for $7.99 (used $4 off coupon they gave me at the counter)
Received:
$9 RR

Purchased:
30ct box of Zantac for $8.99
Received:
$9 RR

I then went back into the store with my RR's and purchase my some of my weekly needs - trash bags, paper plates, napkins, fritto's for our chili, toilet paper, some make up, peanut butter and ragu sauce (it's on sale and I had coupons) and some stocking stuffers for Matt. I then used my total RR's of $25 off of this purchase and ended up paying practically nothing. SO - that's RR's. Pretty simple.

Here's what I have noticed - use it wisely. You will end up buying products you don't need cause you have all these RR's. Be wise and thrifty. When making your shopping list move some of your items to the Walgreens list that may not be on sale at Publix and buy your needs. I found myself wanting to buy all sorts of junk at Walgreens that I don't need just because I had these RR's. Which may be what you want to do. But I think the most effective way is to use it on items that you would normally purchase (toilletries, etc).

ENJOY!! Post some comments or thoughts - also any special deals you may be finding this week!! Happy Shopping!
