Store Coupon Policies - Walgreens (Part 1)

Walgreens is another pharmacy where you can get some really great deals when you know how to take advantage of their coupon policies.  I will say that from personal experience, some of their stores are not very coupon friendly, but it really depends on the store.

How is Walgreens similar to CVS....

• Their Register Rewards (RR's) are very similar to the Extra Care Bucks (ECB's) at CVS
• The same shopping strategies apply to shopping at Walgreens
• Rolling your rewards from one shopping trip to another is the best way to save LOTS of money
• Use your Register Rewards (RR's) to lower your Out of Pocket (OOP) expense
• Register Rewards (RR's) are offered weekly (ex.  Buy $15 of a certain product and get $5 in RR's)
• In this example, the $15 is what you spend before coupons.  You can use coupons to lower this amount and still walk away with $5 in RR's.
• RR's print at the register when you checkout and can be used towards your next shopping trip.
• ECB's can be treated as cash, but be sure to use the full amount of your ECB, as you will not receive change.
• Be sure to keep an eye on the expiration date as you WILL NOT be able to use these after the expiration date .
• Types of coupons they accept
• Manufacturer Coupons
• Walgreens Coupons (monthly booklet)
• Internet/Printable Coupons
• Register Rewards

Next week, I will talk about some more of the coupon policies at Walgreens and what makes it different from CVS.
