Walgreens Coupons & Couponing 101
FAQ & Getting Started Shopping at Walgreens
If you are new to shopping at Walgreens you'll want to familiarize yourself with their Register Reward program, the Balance Rewards program, Walgreens coupons and their coupon policy. You can see the Walgreens Coupon Policy HERE. Print it out and keep a copy in your coupon binder or coupon clutch. Have the address saved on your phone, iphone or on your ipad, whatever! Just have it ready at a moments notice! 🙂 If you haven't shopped at Walgreens in a while, there were some recent changes to their policy (May 2014) that you can read about HERE.
Walgreens Balance Rewards Program
Walgreens has a new Balance Rewards shopper loyalty program as of September 2012. You can sign up for the card in store or on-line HERE. You will need to use your card or the phone number associated with your card to get the sale prices at Walgreens.
Earning Points
You earn points for making purchases on select items. The items that offer Balance Rewards points vary from week to week. These items will be noted in the Walgreens Weekly Ad. Some points offers are monthly and will be noted on signs in the store. You can also find all the Walgreens Monthly Offers on my Monthly Deals page.
Redeeming Points
When making a purchase you can choose to either redeem earned Points or continue saving Points to use on a future purchases. The more you allow points to accumulate the more points will be worth.
Each 1,000 Walgreens Balance Rewards points is equal to a $1 up until you reach 18,000 points. Once you reach 18,000 points the value of each point increases. So for example 18,000 points redeemed in one transaction will be worth $20 where 5,000 points redeemed in one transaction will be worth $5.
Starting 4/24, you can earn Walgreens Balance Rewards points on unit offers (for example buy (2) of a product and earn 2,000 points) when you use Walgreens Balance Rewards to pay for part of, or all of your purchase. Most of our points offers (roughly 85% or more) are these types of unit offers.
You will still not earn points if you use points to pay for a spend threshold offer, like spend $25 and get 5,000 points, for example. So, you will NOT want to pay for those types of deals with points. A very small percentage of deals fall into that category.
You can also redeem points on a transaction where you will earn Register Rewards. Points do not impact your Register Rewards and visa versa.
Manufacturer's coupons do not impact earning points. So for example if an offer is spend $15 and earn 3,000 points (like the Garnier offer pictured) you will need to hit the $15 before manufacturer's coupons. Walgreens coupons however, do impact your amount. So you would need to reach $15 BEFORE manufacturer's coupons but AFTER Walgreens coupons. This also applies to any special bonus offers like earn $5 in points when you spend $25 in store.
Redemption Dollars may not be used for the purchase of the following: dairy; liquor; tobacco; stamps; phone/pre-paid/gift cards; money order/transfers; transportation passes; charitable donations; prescriptions; pseudoephedrine or ephedrine products;immunizations, health tests or other healthcare items or services; Prescription Savings Club membership fee; Take Care Clinic services.
Cash back apps like Ibotta and Checkout51 can also be used in conjunction with manufacturer's coupons, Walgreens coupons and Walgreens Balance Rewards deals. They are an excellent way to layer or stack even more savings when shopping at Walgreens. These allow you to easily earn cash back for purchasing items you were going to purchase anyway. You can learn more about Checkout51 HERE and more about Ibotta HERE.
- You can check your points on-line, using the mobile app or on the bottom of your receipts.
- If you signed up on-line you can still attach your account to an actual card in the store.
- If you pay with points you still will get your Register Rewards.
- Manufacturer's coupons do not interfere with any points earned.
- Points earned show up on your receipt, making it easy to keep track!
- If the points don't show up, call Walgreens Balance Rewards customer service & they'll be credited.
Register Rewards (RR) are similar to Catalina coupons, they print out of the Catalina machine after you have purchased certain qualifying products. They are manufacturers coupons intended to be used only at Walgreens (even though I have heard of other stores accepting them). They are just another way for the manufacturers to incentivize shoppers to purchase their products. They are not Walgreens coupons they are actually manufacturer's coupons.
They are cost effective for the manufacturer because they won't have to pay on every one since many of them won't be redeemed. For example if Crest is $3 and you get a $3 RR for purchasing one but never use the Register Reward, the manufacturer doesn't have to pay the $3 on that Register Reward and you have purchased the item they wanted you to buy anyway.
Here are some basic FAQ about Register Rewards. If you have another question, leave a comment or e-mail and I'll be sure to answer it and add it to the list!
How do I get a Register Reward?
There are RR deals that vary weekly, others that only last for a few days (like a 4 day sale) and still other deals last all month long. I will post all of those deals here, either in the weekly ad or under "monthly deals".
How long are Register Rewards valid?
Generally they are good for 2 weeks from the date they are issued. Occasionally I have received a RR that was good for only 1 week. That is why you'll want to learn how to best "roll" your register rewards.
What does "rolling" mean?
Rolling is using RR you received from buying one item or group of items, to purchase other items that give RR. So for example if Crest is $3 giving a $3 RR and Glade is $3 giving a RR then I can use the Crest to pay for Glade, Glade to pay for Crest and I can just go on "rolling". The other benefit of "rolling" is you can extend the expiration date of a RR, giving you more time to use it towards something that you need.
Can I use a RR I received from one item to buy another of the same item?
You can but then another RR will not print. So if you want 4 Crest in the example above you are better off rolling into Glade and then using the Glade RR to buy another Crest. You could then get the 4 Crest you need. If you use the Crest $3 RR to buy another Crest another RR would not print out.
How do I know the RR is from buying a specific item just by looking at it?
Each RR will tell you what manufacturer it's from. In the Crest example the RR would say Proctor and Gamble or P&G on it. Each RR will tell you what company it came from. If you have 2 RR from the same company but they are for different amounts you can usually roll between them.
What does it mean when you say a RR or a product is "Rolling"?
If a RR is rolling, it means it's rolling on itself. So for example let's say the Gillette razor RR is for $4, if it's rolling it's allowing you to buy another Gillette using the Gillette $4 RR and it's producing another RR. This is unusual but occasionally it happens.
How many RR can I use in one transaction?
You can't use more coupons in a transaction at Wags then you have items. RR are considered coupons. So if I'm buying 5 items I can only use 5 coupons or RR combined. Wags Qs don't count towards that total.
What are fillers?
Fillers are inexpensive items that you buy so you can use more RR. So if I have 5 items I want to buy and 5 manufacturers coupons (MQ) that I want to use but I want to pay my balance with several RR I will need to get some fillers (usually items under $.50) for each RR I want to use.
Can I use a RR and a Wags Q on one item?
Yes, you can. You can stack a manufacturer coupon or a Register Reward and a Wags Q on the same item.
Is there an order in which I should hand in my RR?
I have found that the most important thing is to hand in your Wags Qs after your MQs. So MQs are always first, then RR, then Wags Qs. I have also handed in my MQ, then Wags Qs and then RR and that will work too. What you NEVER want to do is hand in your Wags Qs first!
What if my Register Reward doesn't print?
Check out my post HERE for some tips on what to do if your Register Reward doesn't print.

Hi! In the past I've used a coupon here and there, but I'm just now getting serious about it and I love Walgreens! One question I do have, why should you never hand in Walgreens Coupons first? This is what I've been doing but it has worked out the same or am I missing something?
- March 10, 2013 at 3:30 am
as a Wag Employee sometimes by turning in the walgreens coupon in first it wont ring in the second.. also on rare occasion you can have a item for say.. 5.99 and scan a 3$ coupon .. then a Wag coupon making it 2.99 and then you just just earned a penny 🙂
- January 28, 2011 at 7:28 pm
Is there anywhere in the Walgreens Coupon policy that states that I cannot separate my transactions to use a RR towards the next purchase? I had a manager tell me that today. I told him he was wrong and that I would bring him in a copy of HIS coupon policy next time I shop there. I just want to make sure I am right…
- March 10, 2013 at 3:32 am
There is NOTHING in our policy that stops you.. Though Allow me to suggest you try seeing if you can check out through the cosmetics register so not to tie up the main cashier.. it normally pleases the managers more.
- January 28, 2011 at 11:08 pm
Thank you! I LOVE this site! He tried to tell me it was fraud and theft prevention…lol He was just trying to use big words 🙂 The cashier kept doing my transactions and rolled her eyes at him and said he is a jerk lol Going back with my multiple transactions…:)
- February 1, 2013 at 10:18 am
As an employee of Walgreens I must tell you that our store policy limits customers to TWO transactions in one visit, and that is completely up to the manager/cashier on duty depending on the customers in line.
So while you are able to break up your transactions into two separate ones to accommodate your coupons it will entirely depend on the amount of customers and the workload at the time on management and cashiers.
I love using coupons as well so understand your frustration however I also understand Walgreens side as I deal with couponers all the time, we must try to accommodate all customers in a timely and effective manor so allowing one customer to have multiple transactions is not fair to other customers in line.
What I do if at the cash register and have someone wanting to do multiple transactions and there is a line, I politely ask them if they would be willing to get back into line for the next transaction, that way I keep the line moving and satisfy all customers and most of my couponers are happy to do it 🙂 Hope this helps you a little and have a great day!
- June 16, 2013 at 12:32 pm
"As an employee of Walgreens I must tell you that our store policy limits customers to TWO transactions in one visit"
COuponers, pls. be considerate of other customers. You are NOT the only customer these people have to cater to. Tisha, thank you for politely asking couponers with several transactions to get back in line if there's a long wait. However, I think I'm a bit confused with how you worded your statement. How can a store limit the # of transaction one can make? I agree with couponers going back in line, but limiting the transactions per visit and employess having the say whether customer may do more than 2 in a visit? I don't believe this is true. If you are doing this, corporate must know about this because you are then limiting the potential sales of the store.

I had a employee at a walgreens tell me that also, I went to a different walgreens and will never go back there..
- February 4, 2011 at 4:22 pm
Just had a FREE shopping trip to my local Walgreens, spent $20 but got $20 in RR's!!! My question is do the stores offer rain checks on items offering RR's? Asked for one on the Arnicare and the lady at the register told me that they didn't, and I didn't see it on their coupon policy or your website. Thank you for helping me save money!!!
- May 26, 2011 at 12:56 am
We cannot offer rainchecks on register rewards. We do however offer a raincheck on the sale price of an item but the register rewards are a time sensitive offer from the manufacturer and we cannot print them manually after the offer has expired.
- February 5, 2011 at 2:56 pm
I had a walgreens give me a raincheck on the finish when it was 1.99 after RR and they just put on it that the finish was 1.99. I have had no trouble, thank goodness, with any of the walgreens in my area. I have been to 5 different ones.
- February 10, 2011 at 12:01 pm
Amy-Thank you, I didn't think it was a policy because the checkout lady rolled her eyes at me when I put all my items on the counter and she saw my coupons!
- February 1, 2013 at 10:22 am
Walgreens does not give rainchecks for the RR, if a cashier did this she was in the wrong. A RR is TIME SENSITIVE just like a MFQ and must be used as such, please be aware of this as doing anything else is basically theft.
- June 23, 2013 at 12:43 pm
I believe I did get the register rewards from a raincheck.
But only if they got the item back in stock that same week as the RR's are given out.
- January 5, 2019 at 11:44 pm
I hate it when employees are rude like that. I don't understand why Walgreens allows for so much couponing and two different reward systems and have ghetto workers like that. Employees should be well versed in how to handle coupons and with a smile.
- February 11, 2011 at 4:10 am
I have two questions. First..the walgreens is selling Lysol toilet bowl cleaner for BOGO . I have coupons that say 1.00 off two lysol tb cleaners. can I use these and if so how do I. second … the other day I went to buy Nivea lipgloss . they were bogo50%off.I had coupons bogo free. she said I couldn't use the coupons . Was that right? tx for your help.
- April 3, 2011 at 4:19 pm
I have found that whenever they do BOGO, if you have a BOGO coupon it ends up being free. I have never had a cashier tell me any different. Because technically it does cancel itself out.
- February 24, 2011 at 6:13 pm
@Deanna….I bought 2 Lysol toilet bowl cleaners ($2.99 each)and 2 Lysol wipes ($3.69 each). At the bottom of my receipt it's printed both items free (3.69-free and 2.99- free) and it shows that it took $1.00 off each item so the bowl cleaner was $1.99 and wipes were $2.69. I didn't try the Nivea lipgloss yet but I will try it today or this weekend and let you know how it goes. I think you were supposed to get one free and pay 50% off the second one but not too sure. Hope this helped.
- February 28, 2011 at 6:56 pm
Can I use RR that have expired?
- March 5, 2011 at 8:53 pm
walgeens has a sale on coffee mate this week for buy one @ 2.49 get one free. i have a coupon for free bottle of coffee mate, would this make them both free or should I save it for another time?
- March 21, 2011 at 9:23 am
Can I use a MQ coupon and both a store coupon from the weekly ad with an instant coupon from the March booklet?
- March 26, 2011 at 6:36 pm
No, only 1 MQ and 1 Wags Q. 🙂
- June 16, 2011 at 12:32 am
I have used a mq plus an in ad cpn plus a cpn from the monthly booklet for the same item and had no problem, usually the cashier has the book handy and will use the booklet whenever she sees the item run through, they are great here!
- March 26, 2011 at 6:28 pm
Does Walgreens let you special order items? And can you get a raincheck on an item that has a RR? I have a HUGE problem with a shelf clearer here…. I actually saw her the other day (with her basket full and she cleared out pretty much everything) and I must add she was RUDE to the cashier. I just don't want to order extra coupons to go in and there be nothing left. Thanks! 🙂
- February 1, 2013 at 10:26 am
No rainchecks for RR, they are time sensitive same as a MFQ
- April 14, 2011 at 10:56 am
If i use a walgreens coupon (the one im going to use is $2 off one advil childrens) how many can i buy and have the coupon still take off the $2 per item?
- April 14, 2011 at 5:12 pm
New to the monthly savings book….all the Instant Value Coupns say 'Limit one coupon per customer per offer'. Now if I want to buy more than one of a certain product (Sensodyne toothphaste), will the coupon be good for ALL the toothpastes that I buy? Or will I have to do seperate transactions for each one I buy? I want to buy two tubes, and I have two MQ, and the IVC is for $1 off.
- April 15, 2011 at 5:11 pm
never mind….went today and it worked perfectly.
- December 27, 2013 at 6:20 pm
Well, did it work as $1 off per item? Or just one total?
- April 19, 2011 at 9:34 am
I've never shopped at Walgreens (I don't have one close to me), but I want to share the deals with others who do. Just for clarification… Is a RR considered a MC? If I already have a RR from a previous transaction, and I want to use it to buy, say, Crest toothpaste, does that mean I can't also use a Sunday coupon for Crest, too? TIA : ).
- April 19, 2011 at 11:18 pm
Are the RR lik cash that I can use towards any item on my next puchase?
- April 22, 2011 at 12:09 pm
I want to get the RR deal with the Huggies this week and have a question. The RR is purchase a $ amount and get X amount RR. Is that before or after mfqs. The mg at my Walgreens said that it was after which makes it an ok deal deal but not great.
- April 27, 2011 at 7:56 am
What time does a 24 hour Walgreens start their ad? I get there around 8am and everything is already gone from the ad. I would like a shot at some of these deals. Thanks!
- May 26, 2011 at 1:09 am
The sales should be active by 12:30am. When u go into the store just ask the mgr if the ad is active yet. If it isn't, sometimes the mgr can activate it manually if the system isn't in downtime.
- April 27, 2011 at 4:13 pm
Hi! I'm new to shopping at walgreens. They just opened up a store close to me. Can you use a walgreens coupon from thier booklet and a manufacture's coupon from the paper on the same item? I saw the scott paper towels on sale for $5 minus the walgreens coupon making it $4. Can I also use my newspaper coupon for an additional $1 off?
thanks so much! paula
- April 28, 2011 at 3:27 pm
Hi! I am new to this and just moved to Texas (to be a SAHM) from Florida (where I did not do much "couponing"). If i was to earn $3 RR for Crest can I use it to buy milk at the same store?
- May 3, 2011 at 11:27 pm
I was wondering the same thing and checked out their policy but then saw that dairy was listed as one of the things RR's are not suppose to be used on.
- April 28, 2011 at 6:19 pm
im really tryin to understand this RR thing. Are u saying, for the Cottonelle offer for example. that after the coupons the total is $7 and then after RR they are $2 each? but if i dont have any previous RR that i will technically be paying the $7? and then have the RRs for some other shopping trip? or do they printed off RR automatically reduce the price to $2 each?
~so confused.
- May 3, 2011 at 11:36 pm
I bought the same exact items this week. Here's the deal as I understand it.
$10 ($5 sale price x2)
-2 ($1/1 in store Q x2)
-1 ($.50/1 MQ x2)
= $7 out of pocket expense
-3 (RR wyb 2) I think I also saw somewhere that it was $2 but wyb it prints out a $3 RR 🙂
=$4 (after all Q and RR which breaks it down to $2/ea)
Hope this helps!
- September 4, 2012 at 11:19 pm
Amber…If this is the first time you have shopped at Walgreens, then technically you would be paying $7.00. You can use the RR for your next shopping trip or some people will have more than one transaction to use the RR the same day.
- April 30, 2011 at 6:54 pm
Does anyone know….if there a limit to the number of RR's you can get in one transaction when purchasing multiples of the same product?
- April 30, 2011 at 9:27 pm
I'm pretty sure only the first one of each product will print a RR. You have to split each duplicate item into its own transaction. This works well if you can alternate with other items, so you can use the RR that just printed on the next transaction, keeping in mind you can't use that RR to buy another of the same item.
- May 2, 2011 at 5:23 am
So, the in-ad coupon as I type this is 39cents for Scotch tape, limit 3… I want to use these as fillers but am confused abOut how they countthem for the item to coupon 1:1 ratio?? If I buy 3 will it count as 3 coupons since it is applied to all or is it only count as ONE towards the ratio because it is only one physical coupon or does it not count against me at all because it is a Wal Q?
- May 26, 2011 at 1:15 am
WAG coupons do not count toasted the coupon to item ratio. That is strictly mfg coupons and RR. And any store that counts the WAG qpon is just being ridiculous. you should call the district office for that area or call the WAG customer service number.
- May 3, 2011 at 2:11 pm
The Walgreens here in CA has a strict same number of items to same number of coupons policy, regardless if it is an In-Store Ad coupon, MQ, RR, etc. I read in their coupon policy that In-Store Ad coupons are not supposed to be counted, but the checkout register refuses to accept more coupons than the number of items.
- May 3, 2011 at 11:21 pm
Bummer 🙁 I had something similiar happen to me the other day. I purchased 2 items and tried using 2 MQ and 2 store Q, but then also tried using a RR to purchase the items. Cashier said I needed to buy one more item, because my Q's exceeded the number of items. Which I did, but used another store Q along with that one more item. So I guess store Q are NOT suppose to be counted unless it's a RR. Hope the cashier tried to at least ring it up…at my store the cash register will reject it and give the cashier the reason.
- May 3, 2011 at 11:09 pm
Ok I'm aware that you can't get more than one RR for multiple SAME items purchased, but what about if you purchase different items that offer RR's. Will more than one RR print?
- May 4, 2011 at 9:53 pm
If you return an item that you used register rewards to pay for do you get back the full price of the item or a register reward back or only what you paid??
- May 26, 2011 at 1:19 am
You should get back the full price before coupons because the store turns in thecoupons to the clearinghouse for reimbursement.
- May 5, 2011 at 4:16 pm
Just trying to see if I read the policy right…say they are offering $1 in RR on an item and you buy 5 items are they only going to give $1 in RR or will you get RRs for all 5 items? Just wondering it's a bit cloudy.
Thanks in advance!
- May 7, 2011 at 10:39 pm
Today went well at my WAGS!! First time I did the whole multiple transaction thing. In the end I spent $32 out of my pocket, a cart full of things we needed and stockpiled on bodywash for the boys, got $163.12 worth of stuff, left with $7 in RR and some great coupons printed for Reach toothbrushes that are on sale next week. I don't know if this pic will show up, but thanks for all your help-I am definately WILD FOR WAGS!!
- May 11, 2011 at 7:00 pm
I have read where you have posted about a "coupon book". I am curious what that is and how you get one.
thanks for all the help!
- May 26, 2011 at 1:24 am
The Monthly IVC books should be in store in the rack with the weekly ads. Each register should also have a book the cashier can scan. The coupons in these books are good for the month and you don't need to rip them out, just have the cashier scan them, as the store does not have to turn them in.
- May 16, 2011 at 3:01 pm
I just did my first Walgreens coupon trip & made the mistake of taking my 3.5 yr old & 3 mo old. I couldn't completely concentrate so I'm not sure if I got screwed or not. Plus I had a new cashier so she wasn't sure what she was doing. Thankfully the manager came up. My question is when they have the b1g1 50% off does it automatically ring up at the register? I'm assuming it does, but I noticed my (2) neosporin & (2) J&J Red Cross items rang up same prices & I don't see a 50% off anywhere on my receipt. Do they price it so when you add the two items together it comes out to a 50% savings? I'm confused.
- May 26, 2011 at 1:30 am
If you are buying something that us a b1g1 either free or 50%off it should say bglp next to the item on the receipt and then towards the end of your purchase should subtract your savings amount before the final total. Also there is a spot on the receipt where it tells u your total savings. If the items didn't ring up properly take the items and the receipt back to the store on your next trip and the ad if you still have it and the mgr should do an exchange to re-ring your items properly.
- May 16, 2011 at 7:54 pm
I'm getting frustrated with Wags never havng the good deals in stock. They have been great about giving rain checks but by the time the shelves are restocked my coupons have expired. All 3 Wags in my area NEVER have stock.
- May 19, 2011 at 3:14 am
I've got a question about thr RR's. can u use those on the same transaction or do u have to use it the next visit that's what I'm confused on just so I know how much money I need the first visit
- May 19, 2012 at 4:03 pm
RRs print after you paid for the items so you can them on your next transaction
- May 21, 2011 at 7:17 pm
Di they ever let you use RR that have expired?!?!?!
- May 26, 2011 at 1:37 am
The redeeming of expired RR is at the store mgrs discretion. in my store, we will honor an expired register reward if it is not a mfg coupon and it has expired within the past few days. Ultimately because it's a private WAG coupon and we aren't losing out on the redemption money, it's not a big deal to honor it and it's simply excellent customer service. A smaller store that isn't very busy may not do that as it hurts their profits.
- May 25, 2011 at 5:14 pm
Thanks for this blog. I love Wags too. I love to use my RR's at Fred Meyer for my groceries. With my RR's my last Freddy's trip cost $3.36 for $75 worth of groceries, of course I had my MQ's too. I've only been at this a month and my husband is happy because we finally have enough cereal and it's the good stuff too.
- June 1, 2011 at 8:54 am
You say that you can use 2 Mfr Qs on a B1G1 free offer, but I have never been able to do this at Walgreen's. They will take 1 coupon, but they always say I cannot use a coupon on a Free item (manager at 1 Walgreen's agreed). Yet you mention that this is possible in all your scenarios. How do you get this to work?
- May 19, 2012 at 4:06 pm
Walgreen's official coupon policy says that you can use two MQs on BOGO offer so have them manually deduct the second MQs amount
- June 6, 2011 at 7:19 pm
I made some purchases at Walgreens today and had my 2 kids with me who had me distracted. I didn't get one of my RR's and it was for $5. I didn't notice it until I got home. Is there something I can do to get my $5 RR? I live 25 miles away from that Walgreens and can't just drive right over there.
- May 19, 2012 at 4:08 pm
Call the 1-800 and give them info from your reciept and you'll get it in 6-8 weeks.
- June 7, 2011 at 7:56 am
I went yesterday and purchased (4) of the Sundown vitamins which were B1G1 and I had four coupons. I think the clerk neglected to scan one of the coupons, so I only got (3) taken off. I noticed it right away and was sent to the manager who very rudely told me that actually, I was supposed to only be able to use (2) coupons max. I went to my car and got my printed policy to show him the policy for B1G1 and he still disagreed with me. There was absolutely no convincing him. Am I missing something here? Do the managers have the authority to override corporate policy?
- June 7, 2011 at 9:10 am
oops, I meant I bought the Nature's Bounty vitamins
- June 9, 2011 at 4:33 pm
I was told on Tuesday by my local walgreens that they are under new district managment and we are going to be no longer allowed to use filler items such as the 10 cent laffy taffy. I asked what we will be able to use and how can they tell us what we can and cant buy and i got told they dont know. my kids happen to love the laffy taffy so i buy them every time i go there but now i will probably have issues doing that? Doesnt make any sense to me.
- June 12, 2011 at 6:35 pm
I had a problem using fillers at Walgreens today. Bought:
1 Rogaine $19.99 – $10/1 MQ
4 Nestle Candy $0.39 – (2) $0.50/2 MQ
My total after MQs was $10.55, tried to use 2 $5 RR from last week, but the register said something about coupon value exceeding item value.
Oddly enough, my husband ran a similar transaction:
1 Rogaine $19.99 – $10/1 MQ
3 Nestle Candy $0.39 – (1) $0.50/2 MQ, 1 B2G1 MQ
So, $10.27 after MQs. He tried to use a $10 RR and they wouldn't let him either. So, he grabbed another Nestle and it went through fine.
I'm wondering if they're attaching the $0.50/2 to BOTH candy bars and not "allowing" us to use other coupons (RR) on those items. I was planning on testing my theory with some Laffy Taffy tonight, but it sounds like I may just be out of luck. That would make me very upset since I have a bunch of RR from all of last week's great deals!
- June 19, 2011 at 11:07 pm
I finally figured out why it wouldnt work, Thanks to your help for Annie up above. I had the same problem as her, the coupon attaches to the 2 and 3 cereals leaving me without enough items to coupons ratio. UUGGGHH, i will master this!
- June 9, 2011 at 7:22 pm
Question, can you redeem several of the same rewards to purchase another item. Example, I have multiple reach rewards from multiple purchases can I redeem them in one transactions together?
- June 10, 2011 at 8:52 pm
I have also been told at one of the 5 store I frequent that there is a new coupon policy. Stores are suddenly taking the coupons out of my Infant Care Book, even though we've been allowed to use it several times previously. Other booklets (Answers/Summer Beauty, etc: which contain what they tell me is a manufacturer coupon, even though there are no numbers, or else the numbers don't start with a 5..)I have to also tear out the coupons for plus cannot use a REAL MQ along with them.
This has become very frustrating! What is the real story?
Does each store have it's own rules? (OK, well I do know that some stores here are limiting to one deal of the same type per person per day, but THAT they have posted at all registers) And if they do have their own rules, how do we find out? Cuz different cashiers at the same store do things differently, and how do we even know who is right?

Also – Can I use a Catalina coupon from WAGS on a deal from the same company and still get its RR?
For instance, I have a $2/2 Reach toothbrush catalina that prined last month. I was scared to use it this week on either of the 2 Reach tb deals, for fear I wouldn't receive my RRs.
Anyone know what would happen? Or where I could find out in the future (for other deals)?
- June 11, 2011 at 1:07 pm
And NOW they won't adjust the amount of a $3 coupon down to the $2.99 price of an item? The Exec (Asst?) says it's unethical and he's never heard of it being done!
- June 11, 2011 at 6:37 pm
I have $2 RR (Colgate Toothpaste) from my last trip and I plan to use it for tomorrow. My transaction will have at least 5 items and I plan to get 1 Colgate toothbrush for $2.99 and get $2.00 RR. Will that RR print?
- June 13, 2011 at 5:49 am
I always give the cashier the in store coupons first, then the MQs and last the the RR, but yesterday I went shopping at the Wags I always shop at and the regular cashier made me use the RR first then the MQs and last the in store coupon. I asked her why and she said that's how the manager wants it. I'm a new couponer and was wondering if the order you hand out the coupons matter and also can the store dictates the order in which the coupons are used.
- June 13, 2011 at 12:18 pm
If something is just on sale, say normally 5.49 each, now 4.99 each. Can I use 2 B1G1F coupons, so they both end up being FREE, or only one coupon for the 2 of them?
- June 13, 2011 at 4:24 pm
The store-specific manufacturer coupon like the ones in the Infant Care Booklet…what are those? Manufacturer or store? I had a manager today telling me I couldnt combine a Playtex coupon with a "Walgreens only" Playtex coupon from that booklet…your thoughts please!
- June 14, 2011 at 6:09 pm
can you use a wags coupon ie: lysol bowl cleaner which is b1g1 at $2.99 and then use a manufacture coupon that says save $1 when you buy 2 ??
- June 16, 2011 at 4:29 pm
Yes, you can use $1/2 with WAGS b1g1 at 2.99.. I just did the deal on my lunch break.
- June 16, 2011 at 4:15 pm
Do you count the RR savings upfront ( when you get them) or when you use them?
- June 19, 2011 at 10:54 pm
I had an issue today at using RR. Please look and see if you can help me understand what i am doing wrong. Nobody there could tell me why they wouldnt work. I purchased the following:
Zyrtex 5.79
Kelloggs Frosted Flakes 1.99
Kelloggs Frosted Flakes 1.99
Kelloggs Fruit Loops 1.99
Kelloggs Fruit Loops 1.99
Kelloggs Fruit Loops 1.99
Kelloggs Raisin Bran 1.99
MFG CPN $1/3 any Kelloggs Cereal
MFG CPN $1/2 Kelloggs Frosted Flakes
MFG CPN .70/1 Kelloggs Raisin Bran
Then I paif with $5 RR
I had a $2 RR and a .99 RR but they didnt let me use them. I know i have enough items, and my total that i did have to pay was 10.03. Ive racked my brain trying to figure this out and I am at a loss. Any suggestions? Thanks for all your help!
- June 19, 2011 at 11:25 pm
unfortunately, the coupon for $1/3 kelloggs cereal actually requires all 3 cereals and attaches the coupon to all three. the same for the $1/2 coupon…it attaches to both frosted flakes…so by the time you got to the 2 remaining RR coupons, there were no more items for the RR coupons to attach themselves to. so you still would have needed 2 filler items.
- June 20, 2011 at 12:03 am
thanks so much for your help, i know now how to make this work for me!
- June 20, 2011 at 9:41 am
I hope I am not repeating someone else's question, if so I apologize in advance. 🙂 When there is a sale where you need to buy say $15 worth of a qualifying product to get the register reward, is that $15 before any coupons you have or after? And the very first question posted here about why you shouldn't hand the cashier your WAG coupons first, why? My store insists that I give them first. Should I tell them no? I certaintly don't want to make enemies with my cashiers because they are very uptight about the coupons to start with.
- July 31, 2011 at 8:10 pm
Most of my stores do not care about the order you give the coupons to us. It is simply easier for the cashier to ring the walgreens coupons first because they can be rung at anytime during the transaction without hitting extra buttons(also they may have coupon codes memorized and can key them in without the need to scan the coupon). Manufacturer coupons, however, require them to hit subtotal before ringing the coupon and again before continuing to ring other items or walgreens coupons. This is usually when you here the register start beeping alot because the cashier was too quick for the register to keep up and then they will need to clear error messages 3 or 4 times before they can continue.
- June 25, 2011 at 3:43 pm
Since Walgreen's accepts a B1G1 and a .50/1 for only two items, does anyone know if they will also accept a 1.00/2 and .50/1 for only two items as well?
- July 31, 2011 at 7:57 pm
If your coupon says "save $1.00 on two", those two items are required by the manufacturer for that 1 coupon. Thus you should count those 2 items together as 1 item. The register will not let you enter a second coupon for those 2 items. It beeps and tells the cashier "no item sold for coupon" or "exceeds limit".
- June 25, 2011 at 5:04 pm
I'm curious about the order of coupons. The above says not to hand in Wags Qs first, why is that? Can you explain in more detail?
- June 27, 2011 at 9:02 pm
Can I use B1G1 coupons on each item? Making them free?
Scenario: 5 Gillette Body Washes
Am I able to use 5 B1G1 coupons for each item?
- August 10, 2011 at 8:32 pm
Someone asked this same question but i didn't see an answer:
Their policy states that they will accept 1 MFG & 1 Walgreens coupon for each item, but most of the Walgreens coupons (from the coupon book) state in the fine print that they are MFG coupons good only at Walgreens. So my question is: Are they considered MFG or Walgreens coupons under their policy?
The reason I ask is I had one store tell me I couldn't use the coupon book coupon with my mfg coupon because they were both mfg coupons.
- August 17, 2011 at 9:33 am
Shelina, I have been told the same thing and was hoping for an answer too!
- August 13, 2011 at 10:10 pm
Can you use same or "like" Register Rewards in 1 transaction? For example, if I have 3 P&G Register Rewards for $4 each, can I use all 3 in 1 transaction or will I need to split them up between 3 transactions?
- August 18, 2011 at 4:07 pm
In regards to the monthly coupon book being considered a manufacturer coupon I've had the same problem at my store. Christie gave me corporate phone number and I called them almost three weeks and had to call back two more times, each time I was told they were working on the question I had and that someone would call me. I finally received a call from the local store manager who said yes that corporate had changed the monthly booklet to manufacturer coupons if they start with 5000 and that only those starting with 2000 were a Wags q. I then asked him about their current ad for cottonelle that said you could stack the in store coupon (which is in the august booklet) with a q from the newspaper. He said it was a misprint but that he would honor it since it was in the ad. So this is where it stands for now I'm not sure what else to do. I'm hoping someone else might have more insight in regards to this issue.
- October 9, 2011 at 8:55 pm
I just read your FAQ and I did not know to hand in my MQ first and then my RR and then my WQ. I want to thank you very much for this advice and I will try this next week at Walgreens. Have a great day.
- October 23, 2011 at 7:46 pm
I have a question about RR from the same manufacture. For example if there are register rewards on multiple P & G items…as will happen next week. Crest, Head and Shoulders, Pantene etc…do these items need to be purchased in seperate transactions to get all of the register rewards to print?
- November 27, 2011 at 11:17 am
What do you do with expired RR tickets? Can you still use the?
- November 27, 2011 at 2:08 pm
Can you use coupons if ordering from Walgreens online?
They are offering $10 off $50 online but have some good coupon deals. Just wondering
- December 7, 2011 at 10:45 pm
Latoya, that is not true. You can do multiple transactions, right in a row, if you want. You can buy multiples of the same items and split them between your transactions. Print the coupon policy & take it with you, if you have to. A lot of Wags shoppers will intentionally check out at the beauty counter for this reason. It takes more time & often causes a line to build, if you check out at the main register(s). Sorry to hear you were misinformed!
- December 10, 2011 at 3:08 am
I know this question has probably been answered a thousand times, but say you want to buy 10 of the same item that earns RR in one transaction, will you get 10 RR or only one per transaction? If that is the case, I would need to have 10 transactions to get 10 RR for that one item?
- May 19, 2012 at 4:32 pm
You get one RR per transaction even if you buy 10 items. So, yes, you have to do 10 transactions
- February 9, 2012 at 9:19 pm
walgreen wouldnt let me use my coupons for the buy one get one free on the got 2 b glued products they treated me and other ladies like crap in front of others in corbin ky
- February 10, 2012 at 7:07 pm
Angie, that just happened to me! Which is why I'm here checking the policy. They can be so rude at some Wags when you use a lot of coupons but I can't resist the deals so I keep going back! I know a couple cashiers that know what they're doing so I'll do the got2b deal with them when I see them, hopefully. I'm printing out the corporate policy to bring along, just in case. I think the main problem is they don't know what they're doing so they try to tell the customer they're wrong so the cashier doesn't look stupid.
- May 4, 2012 at 12:20 am
today i went to Walgreens and tried using the Got2b coupons on the b1g1 sale and they wouldnt let me. the cashier got the manager who told me the computer wasnt letting us do it and that it wasnt allowed. i told her that i had done this before in a different town but she just refused to do anything. what would you do? i want to use these coupons bc they expire soon 🙁
- May 19, 2012 at 4:30 pm
Show them their own official coupon policy where it says you can use two MQs on a BOGO deal. But on the other hand in the end its still up to a manager if they do it
- May 6, 2012 at 8:18 pm
Hi Christie, I had a bad experience at walgreens yesterday and I told myself, I always have a problem with this store. Here is the senario: I was trying that deal when you buy $15 worth of breakfast items you get $5 RR so I bought that breakfast biscuit Belvita for $6/2 ( took 4boxes which = to $12) then I bought that Withens $5/2 ( 2 boxes = $5) a total of $17.00 then I used 4 Q of $1.00 for Belvita and $1/2 for nebisco products for the 2 withens total coupons deducted was $5.00 makes my oop to $12.00, then when I payed my out of pocket, it didn't printed out the RR of $5 and the manager said because I didn't spend $15 because I used my coupons and that is not what I believe how it works. Please help me understand this situation, they are not being reasonable. I told the manager and the cashier, we based register rewards on the total amount of the products before coupons because from my point of view, the coupons were being payed by the manufacturers for us to get encouraged to buy their products and try it. May I know from your point of view how this works and if this is how your Walgreens coupon policy works? I would appreciate any clarifications or any words of wisdom that anyone could share, thanks and more power.
- May 19, 2012 at 4:28 pm
I had the same thing happen a few weeks ago with Oreo cookies and I forced the manager to print me the RR because you are right the total needs to be BEFORE any MQs but AFTER store coupons. A few months ago. I did two separate transactions with Revlon buy $10 get 3RR deal. First transaction I paid under a dollar plus tax after MQs and got RR. Secon transation (different Revlon items but same deal) total was about $5 plus tax and RR didnt print. the manager tried to tell me its because of coupons but when I told him that the first time there wasnt a problem, he didnt know what to say and just force printed the RR. I really wish the Walgreen's official coupon policy mentioned situations like this.
- May 7, 2012 at 4:00 pm
I saw on another site that someone was rolling depends and witchhazel. So I am wondering if the depends rr is still available this week also? Thank you, Susan
- May 11, 2012 at 7:54 am
Hi,is there anything I can do with my expired RR? My WAGS does not take expired RR……thank you. I was on vacation and totaly lost track of it.
- May 13, 2012 at 7:47 am
How many manufacturer coupons can be used for multiple items? I understand that the total number of manufacturer coupons and register rewards cannot exceed the total number of items being purchased and for this reason one should add filler items to what is being purchased. But, is this only in order to be able to use a manufacturer coupon and a register reward on a single item or to be able to use as many manufacturer coupons as desired for an item / items?
In other words, is the purpose of the filler to use multiple register rewards (RR) or is it to use multiple multiple manufacturer coupons, or both.
For example, let's say I am purchasing the following:
2 packs of Adult Diapers
3 pencils (fillers)
So, that's 5 items
What here will work and not work:
5 Register Rewards?
2 Manufacturer coupons and 3 Register Rewards?
3 Manufacturer coupons ($1 off 1, $1 off 1, $1 off 2) and 2 Register Rewards?
3 Manufacturer coupons ($1 off 1, $1 off 1, $1 off 1) and 2 Register Rewards?
3 Manufacturer coupons ($1 off 1, $1 off 1, $1 off 1) and 2 Register Rewards?
4 Manufacturer coupons ($1 off 1, $1 off 1, $1 off 1, and ($1 off 1 OR $1 off 2)) and 1 Register Rewards?
5 Manufacturer coupons (No Register Rewards)
I would like to fully understand this because I thought I did and have been planning items to purchase with coupons and then they don't go through at the register. It seems like the fillers are only to be able to use a Register Rewards with a coupon or to use multiple Register Rewards. Is this correct?
Or, another way of asking the question, excluding Register Rewards (RR), is it only one manufacturer coupon that can be used per item, regardless of the quantities purchased, and regardless of the number of filler items? I know it states this for one item in the coupon policy, but for multiple items it states "When purchasing multiple items, Walgreens accepts multiple identical coupons for multiple qualifying items…" which had me thinking that this could also mean multiple manufacturer coupons can be used for multiple items, even if the coupons exceeded the number of qualifying items being purchased and so long as the total number of items (fillers inclcuded) did not exceed the total number of coupons being used.
Looking forward to your responses.
- May 19, 2012 at 4:20 pm
$1 off 1 equals 1MQ. $1 off 2 counts as 2 MQs. RR counts as 1 MQ. "Multiple identical coupons for multiple qualifying items" means you can, say, use 3 $1off 1 MQs for 3 products stated on those MQs. As long as those MQs don't say something like "Limit one coupon per purchase per shopping trip", which basically means you can buy ten of those items but you can only use one coupon in one transaction. I know its complicated 🙂
- June 5, 2012 at 2:18 am
Most of the managers,assts.mgrs. at Walgreens are incompetent, unknowledgable,just a warm body in the store and don't know any corporate policies. In addition upper mgt. doesnt do anything about complaints expect appease you that one time -does not correct the problem so it does not happen in the future. Their customer service is lousy nowadays and getting worse.
- June 10, 2012 at 12:25 am
I love my coupon customers but please be considerate of the other customers who just want to buy a soda. Take your order to the cosmetic counter where we can spend time with you to make sure you are getting the best deal. Please also read the coupon terms. Some are now saying how many you can use in one shopping trip. Thanks for your help. We really do want to serve you better.
- July 15, 2012 at 10:31 am
If the register rewards coupon has an expiration date of 7-15-2012….is that still good to use on the day of 7-15-2012? The reason I asked is I read from other sites that Walgreens will consider it expired and this one WAGS clerk I spoke with said the same thing, which of course doesn't make any sense. It should be good until 11:59:59 pm on the day of the expiration.
- July 18, 2012 at 9:31 pm
So I'm looking at subscribing to newpapers from other states. I've had one of them cancel my order already because I am out of the delivery area. I'm wondering if anyone has any tips for choosing newspapers from other states that will have coupons in them. I live in north east WI. Any tips for 2 new couponers would be great as well. My sister and I absolutely love wildforwags!!!!
- September 4, 2012 at 11:57 pm
The Minneapolis Star Tribune has great coupons and I can purchase it at my local gas station in Northern WI. Hopefully, it will be available to you too!
- September 5, 2012 at 12:04 am
I usually write my grocery list on an envelope and I place the coupons I need inside. This technique helps when I am in line. Depending upon the transaction here are some examples of how I write out the list:
Lay's Potato Chips 2/$4.00
(under the item I will list the coupons / RR that I can use)
Also, at Walgreens I go to the checkout in the make-up department…not as busy.
Good luck!
- September 5, 2012 at 12:32 am
Print the IVC (instant value coupons) from the Walgreens.com web site…go to coupons and search through the selection to find the IVC. These coupons state "IVC Good at Walgreens." Now the problem of using a manufacturer's coupon and a store coupon will not be an issue with the clerks!
- September 5, 2012 at 2:00 pm
Does anyone have trouble using the free photo items as items for use of RRs?
The store I went to first said RRs can't be used on photos. I pointed out photos weren't listed in the exclusions, then the manager said they can't be used because they are free. I mentioned that buy one get one free items can have coupons used for them if the total is higher than the coupons, but she maintained that the photos don't count and directed me to find another item to purchase or not to use the RR.
Anyone know if this is policy, or just this store?
- September 6, 2012 at 8:08 pm
Do you mean that you were getting photos items at no charge because of a promotion in the ad? If your photo items were free, why are you using RRs on them? You can't get cash on any coupons and if something is free already, then there's nothing for the coupons to discount. If I misunderstood your question, I'm sorry.
- September 5, 2012 at 4:50 pm
what is a walgreen mobile coupon and where can you get them?

If I have a coupon for free Breyer's ice cream, could I use that for a promotion for BOGO on Breyers and get both ice cream tubs for free?
- September 6, 2012 at 8:11 pm
It depends on the type of monthly coupon it is. If it's a Walgreens coupon, it can be used with a manufacturer coupon and sometimes there are even weekly ad coupons for a product that also has a monthly Walgreens coupon, in which case, you can use 3 coupons on that product. Both of the Walgreens coupons and a manufacturer coupon (if one for that item exists). It doesn't happen often but when it does, it's fun!
- September 10, 2012 at 11:19 pm
Since you are starting newly, it can get very confusing. I have been there done that! You might want to find a time that is not so busy in your store and that is when you start trying out with small purchases until you get the mastery of your coupon planning. Couponing takes a lot of planning and mental alertness and note taking will help you. The savings are all worth the trouble though. Good luck.
- September 23, 2012 at 11:58 am

I have been successfully couponing at Wag's for 4 years, but we recently moved so I'm using a new location. Tonight, when I tried to use $1.00 Purex manufacturer coupons, the cashier informed me that Walgreen's cannot accept any coupons that designate a 'different' retailer on them. (In this case, the coupon is a normal manufacturer internet coupon that says 'redeemable at CVS'). I also could not use my $2.00 Clear Hair coupons for the same reason ('redeemable at Dollar General'). I've never encountered a retailer that doesn't accept manufacturer coupons. But the cashier insisted that Walgreen's does not get reimbursed for manufacturer coupons that have a different retailer designee. Is this true? I have not called corporate, but would love to know the truth here. If this IS true, then lots and lots of retailers are screwing themselves out of money by accepting manufacturer coupons regardless of the retailer designee. But I don't know why a manufacturer would care WHERE a customer purchases their product… they just want you to buy it, right? So, if my local Wag's is off-base, I'd like to get the situation corrected so I can continue couponing at Wag's in peace. (Plus, the cashier informed me that she turned away several other customers for the same reason, so a) this is affecting many people, and b) Wag's is losing out on sales… does corporate really want this to be happening?)
- December 21, 2012 at 3:24 am
I was able to use 2 sets (4 coupons) at two different Walgreens. The first set was used one week ago and the other set yesterday. Neither cashier questioned anything. It can be that your cashier / store is very particular about accepting coupons with other store's logo. I highly doubt it's a corporate thing; otherwise I would not have been able to use mine at either store.
- December 15, 2012 at 7:17 pm
I have a $10 off/$35 for Wags. How close do I need to be to $35 to use the coupon?
- February 1, 2013 at 10:39 am
You need to have at least $35.00 BEFORE tax to use your $10 coupon, that is why it says $10 off of $35 🙂
- December 31, 2012 at 2:08 pm
Since when did Walgreens stop taking Manufacturer's coupons that have "redeem at another store".? These are Manufacturer's coupons not store coupons.
- January 26, 2013 at 9:11 pm
One thing I learned last week… which really means "Duh! Silly me."
You will not get BR if you pay using a Walgreen's gift card. Per my conversation with Walgreens customer service… treat your gift card as cash but it is considered store credit when you make a purchase.
- February 3, 2013 at 9:48 am
With the Balance Rewards program, if I do the same deal more than once, will it get credited the second time? For example, there was a deal that you earned 10,000 points for the purchase of $30+ in Poise pads. I purchased enough to get the points. If I had another transaction for $30+ in Poise products, would I have gotten another 10,000 points?
- April 20, 2013 at 8:49 pm
I have the same question about Balance Rewards. If I use the same deal twice, do I get the points twice or do they have a maximum points distribution?
- February 3, 2013 at 11:21 am
I see specific Walgreen's coupon books mentioned in your updates, such as the Cold and Flu book, or Digestive Health booklet. I can't find these in my store. How can I get them?
- February 14, 2013 at 10:51 pm
Linda, some times when my local Walgreen's doesn't have the savings booklet by the weekly ad, sometimes the cashiers have them. Ask a cashier next time you visit. 😉
- February 28, 2013 at 2:30 pm
I know you printed this 3 months ago and may never see this comment. For those of you who do, what Amy did is considered coupon fraud. You may drive home with your free product, but the cashier that accepted your coupons will get fired if she's caught. I learned this the hard way. I was a cashier for Wag's and was taught to accept the coupons if they went through the machine. We did it this way for two years running until one day, on my own personal transaction, I used Dawn Foam Q's to buy regular Dawn detergent (which is what Amy did, same mfg. but wrong product). A week later, a guy came in from loss prevention and fired me. Wag's went so far as to report the circumstances to the background check place and here we are four years later, I've been labeled a thief and haven't been able to get a job since. So, do you think that it's worth you saving a few dollars on deodorant if someone could lose their job? I hope not.
- March 17, 2013 at 9:09 pm
If the ad says "3000 pts with purchase of $15 of products", do you need to spend $15 BEFORE or AFTER coupons are taken off?
- March 29, 2013 at 4:21 am
Today the cashier told me I can only use a max of 4 total (not 4 like) coupons in 1 transaction, is this true?
- June 21, 2013 at 11:51 pm
Walgreens has a new policy that states that the individual store managers can set a limit on "excessive household purchasing" (what that means is subjective and completely dependent on the store manager) much like Walmart does. If that's the policy at that particular Walgreens, just find another store to shop at 🙂
- April 3, 2013 at 10:18 am
I just transferred a load of prescriptions from Rite Aid to Walgreens to take advantage of their Balance Reward Program. Out of NINE different prescriptions I had filled in the last couple months only ONE gave me balance reward points. So much for their big ads touting "500 pts. for every prescription filled!! Think I'll switch to Costco where most of my meds are a hell of a lot cheaper.

Hi! Love the website, very informative!! I've never shopped walgreens before, but I'm starting Wednesday, because it looks like they have awesome deals and I've just started extreme couponing a couple of moths ago. At any rate, my question is – it says above that you can "roll" with rr by buying 1 crest, then buying 1 glade, and so on. But on wags coupon policy it states "1 rr per customer, per transaction, per day". So if I wanted to stock up on kotex and 7up (always a funny combination of items to buy when couponing lol) and kotex gives $2 rr and 7up gives $1 rr, would I be able to split up my transactions to continue getting rr and rolling? Or how would I do that?
Any advice is appreciated!! Thanks!!

One the same item…Can you use a mobile coupon and a coupon from the monthly coupon book together (both are for same value)?
- April 26, 2013 at 12:17 pm
I just recently made it to my $50.00 reward points. Have you ever thought of posting the deals people get with their reward points to get the most of them. I want to make sure to make the most of my 50.00.
- May 9, 2013 at 5:13 pm
I understant that with a RR you can only buy one item at a time to earn one RR, but with the poins system can you buy more than one. IE buy 2 potato chips and get 1,000 points. If I buy 4 bags at one time do I get 2,000 points? Thank you

I rarelly go to walgreens but once there i got the balance card my problem now is that i forgot the zip code I gave the cashier and i can not make my cash valid at the store.
do i need to get a new card and lost my points and cash?
Can i find out what the zip code was? if so how?
thaks for your help
i have my card with me ans the number of it if necessary.
- April 19, 2014 at 6:09 pm
I know this is quite late, but they can 'edit' your info and find your zip code and update it in the system. All you need to do is tell the cashier that you need to update your information, they'll have you type in your phone number, and they can hit 'edit' and go from there! Hope that helps someone!

i want to take advantage of a deal buying 2 toothbrushes for $7 – i have two MQs making the price $5… i am going to use my balance points to pay for this transaction and receive $5 RR. my question is: can i do this transaction twice? if i pay with balance rewards both times will the catalina print my register rewards on the second purchase?or is there a restriction when paying with balance rewards?
- May 21, 2013 at 11:56 am
for the total coupon count…i know wags qs don't count but how do coupons that are a dollar off three count…as just 1 coupon on the coupon count and 3 items on the item count, or would the coupon attach itself to all three items and count as three coupons? just trying to see if I need to throw in some fillers! thx!
- June 3, 2013 at 6:24 pm
A coupon for $1 off 3 does attach to all 3 items as if it were 3 coupons. See this comment thread from June 2011 for example: http://wildforwags.com/faq-basics-walgreens-coupons/#comment-131014
- June 7, 2013 at 12:42 am
quick question since my walgreens is open 24 hrs, what time does the ad go live and able to get the sales for the next day…midnight? 1am? thanks!
- June 21, 2013 at 2:17 am
I was wondering if you purchase items that are buy one get one half off and have a bogo coupon for that item how it the discount calculated? For example I got razors that were $9.49 so one was $9.49 so the second was $4.24 when they ran my coupon they gave me only a discount of $4.24. Is this correct?
- November 19, 2013 at 7:15 pm
The same thing happened to me today. Simple Face products were buy one get one half off. I had 4 man coupons for Buy a face wash or lotion and get free Makeup remover wipes. I purchased an expensive lotion and 3 face washes, and 4 make up remover wipes that would be free with the coupons. Since the wipes regular price is a few cents less than the wash, they all rang up 1/2 price. The cashier adjusted my coupons to the half price amount. Was that correct? If a BOGO coupon cancels out the price of an item in a BOGO deal, shouldn't the same apply for a BOGO coupon and a buy one get one half off deal? Someone please explain
- June 21, 2013 at 9:43 pm
How do I get RR Reward coupons. can I get then before I by a item in the store I buy some items in store but never received rr rewards before.
- July 7, 2013 at 4:09 pm
Do you know of any Walgreens locations in Los ANgeles area that accept expired Wag Register Rewards (RR)s? I have over $24 that expired July 3. I know that one CVS location in Los Angeles accepts expired CVS Extra Bucks, their version of RRs. It is at Laurel and Ventura in Studio City, SW corner, and I understand that a legal decision resulted in this one store accepting expired coupons and rewards. Know of anything like that for Walgreens?
- July 11, 2013 at 10:06 pm
Question about when the new ad starts…. If the ad states 07/14 does that mean that the sales start that day? I was thinking that it meant the sales start 07/13 however the rr deals start 07/14. Thanks for the help!
- July 14, 2013 at 3:39 pm
I am a new at couponing and I'm going to do the bulk of my shopping at Walgreens I have been doing research and getting coupons from coupon sites. my question is the coupons on the Walgreens website are they MQ or store coupons?
- July 29, 2013 at 12:57 am
Could someone please explains the rules for the stock up coupons like $5 off of $20? Do you need to hit $20 before coupons and just hand over the $5 wags coupon first or do you need to be at $20 after all other coupons/discounts are applied? Thanks in advance for the help!
- July 30, 2013 at 12:10 am
If I have multiples of the same Register Reward (earned from separate transactions of course), can I REDEEM more than one of the same RR in a single purchase of other items? (following the # of coupons to items rule of course)
- August 3, 2013 at 4:23 pm
I have a RR from colgate co. for a toothbrush. Now when this new week begins wags has colgate toothpaste on sale with RR (toothbrush also included) Will I still get the new RR $2.50 from colgate if I use a $1.50 RR from colgate from last week??? or should I just pay out of pocket instead?
- August 19, 2013 at 8:03 pm
Can I use the same walgreens coupon in the same transaction if I have more then one?
Example: I have a mf coupon for $1/2 mouthwash and 2 walgreens coupons for $1/1 of the same mouthwash.
Can I combined the three to get the best deal even though the bottom of the coupon says "Limit one coupon per customer per offer"
- August 25, 2013 at 10:30 am
I am a bit disappointed in Walgreens, I was there this morning at 9 am and they are wiped out of Purex and the toothbrushes/toothpaste with the register rewards on sale. They said that someone came in yesterday and bought it all. Apparently, since the sale flyers comes out on a Saturday, they are now putting the new stuff on sale and available on Saturday around 1 p.m.
Also, regarding their register rewards, if you get a raincheck you forfeit the rewards because they cannot give you the rewards after the sale week. CVS will give the extra care bucks after the sale week, it's indicated on their raincheck.
My question is items with a register rewards, is there a liimit, for example, the toothbrushes are 2/6.00 with 3.00 rewards, can you buy 4 and get 6.00 rewards?
Thanks, sorry to vent but I was so surprised when I heard about the Saturday early start on the weekly sale.
- August 28, 2013 at 10:24 pm
Does anyone know if Walgreens has a "spend $20 get 5000 points" promo and i use manufacturer coupons, does it have to be $20 before coupons are used or after?
- October 13, 2013 at 11:28 pm
Can you use the wags coupons more than once per transactions — the candy this week for instance. I have $1/2 MQ plus the wags $1/2…….I have multiples of the MQ. How many times can use use the wags coupon per transaction? (Can I get 2 or 3 of the deals with only one wags coupons?) (My store just keeps a wags coupons book behind the checkout and scans from it when you check out). Thank you for the info. Looking to stock up for Halloween.
- October 25, 2013 at 5:05 am
I am having hard time with Walgreens trying to get them to use both my coupons. The current suave deal buy 2 for 6 (Hawaii) it will only ring one coupon not both. They say they have to ring it separate to use both coupons because the register recognizes the 2 for 6 as 1 purchase, but then you don't get the rewards or the 2 for 6 price. Question Does both just scan elsewhere or do they have to override it or something. I looked at there coupon policy and it does not seem to spell this out specifically even though I know everyone is doing it. any suggestions?? Thanks
- November 14, 2013 at 2:10 pm
When a Wags coupon from the monthly savings book says "Limit one coupon per customer per offer" does that mean you can only buy one? For example, in this month's there is the $1 off 2 Lindt Lindor Truffles, so if I buy 4 total, will I get $2 off? Or would I need to do a separate transaction? TIA!
- November 21, 2013 at 10:20 pm
My closest Walgreens just refused to accept internet coupons. They said they had too much fraud and the clerk called the manager to confirm. This changed very recently since internet coupons worked fine just a few days ago. This doesn't match the Walgreens coupon policy but I don't know if it matters or if the local stores can make their own policy.
- November 25, 2013 at 5:45 pm
I was told if purchasing multiple items of the same that had RR, I had to ring up every item separately because if I did them all together it would only spit out one RR instead of 6 (for example) for the 6 items I purchased.
I told the cashier to try it anyway and sure enough it only gave me one RR instead of one for each item of the same. She ended up refunding me everything and doing individual transactions for each.
Also, is it not true that you can reduce the value of your RR if you're under ? I had owed $4.98 and had a RR for $5 but they couldn't reduce the value for me. Is that only with MQ they can do that?
- December 7, 2013 at 8:30 pm
First of all thank you for all the help!
I do have a question…
Today (12/7) I took advantage of the Colgate ToothPaste double dip
3/$9+3RR BOGO Free
I used (3) $2 RR (that I got from 3 Gillette shavers) to pay for the transaction.
From your FAQ's under "What is rolling?" I understood that you can still get RR when you pay using RR as long as it is not for the same product.
Did I do something wrong? Or did I misunderstand?
Thank you in advance!
- December 13, 2013 at 3:16 pm
This may be a silly question. I am fairly new to double dipping. I was wondering if anyone knows if an item is on sale one week for bogo free and is also bogo free in the next weeks ad does It work the same as if one item was bogo 50% and bogo free??? Would you get both items free??? Again this may be a silly question but I know that my fellow couponers will know the answer!!!!!
- December 19, 2013 at 5:57 am
I bought Nature Made Vit B1G1F the price was $6.99 I used a $5.00 coupon which brought the price down to $1.99 and then I wanted to use the $3.00 coupon for them to take off the $1.99 but Walgreens would only take 1 coupon I thought you could use 1 coupon per purchase.. and Ideas
Thank You
- January 9, 2014 at 11:14 am
Hi i have a question that Ive asked alot of people working at walgreens and each have answered it differently! My question is if I have lets say 300,000 points and I buy something for a $100 (non dairy tobacco or any of the other thing u cant use points on) what is the maximum points I can use on this transaction?? The register would only allow 18,000 points used. Some people said if u have enough points to cover the $$ amount u should be able to pay for all of it with points before taxes!! Some said 40,000 points is my maximum im sooooo confused could you please explain?? Thank you in advance!!
- January 12, 2014 at 9:37 am
I would be interested in this answer as I ran into the same problem on a few transactions during the Christmas season. I had over 70K points and could only redeem 18K in each transaction.
- March 27, 2014 at 8:54 pm
This is a bit late, but you can use up to $50 at a time.
The dollar increments are listed on this article, but at least in my area, you can also redeem $1, $2, and $3.
- January 14, 2014 at 11:59 am
If there is a BOGO sale and I have 2 B2G1 coupons and I buy 6 of the items,how does this work with the sale? Thank You.
- January 21, 2014 at 10:03 am
You would get THREE items free with the store promotion; your coupons would pay for the other TWO items (up to the maximum amount on the q–which is sometimes less than the actual price of item), and you would end up paying for ONE product and getting FIVE free.
- January 31, 2014 at 6:03 pm
This site is very helpful. You said that we could use points to pay for a transaction and still get the RR on that item. Can we also use RR on an item that we're getting RR for? Thanks!
- January 31, 2014 at 7:14 pm
Can I use a coupon from the weekly ad to make an item a specific price and a dollar off coupon from the Frebruary savings book for the same item in the same transaction?
- February 3, 2014 at 3:30 pm
If I have a Walgreen's gift card and use it to pay, will I still get points for that transaction?
- February 9, 2014 at 3:42 am
So I have a question. This week the super candy is $1.99 and you get a RR of $1.99
My question is, there were a few super candies on clearence. Would those give me a Register Reward?
- February 11, 2014 at 11:15 am
Not sure if this has been asked but…can you earn points and a RR on one transaction 2 seperate items? And what is the difference between the points and RR's?
- February 23, 2014 at 11:01 am
I have been having trouble with the Woodstock IL Walgreen's on coupons so I looked up their coupon policy and it doesn't answer my problem. hopefully you can help, I'm getting very frustrated, I tried to buy 2 Suave products 1 shampoo and 1 conditioner yesterday it was on sale $299 each get 2,000 pt when you buy 2 . I tried using 2 coupons that I printed $1.50/1 the cashier said she would have t break up the transaction because I can not use 2 coupons. On the coupon it say's Limit one coupon per purchase on product/quantity specified and maximum of two identical coupons allowed in same shopping trip. I tried to explain that I am buying 2 items and I says 1 coupon per purchase. She refused so I didn't get the items. Am I wrong?? I had the same problem with the Nievea Lotions the week before. It's making me not wanting to shop at Walgreens anymore. Thank you for all you do.
- March 3, 2014 at 3:10 pm
I have several questions regarding the promotion get 5,000 Balance Reward points wyb $20 of participating products:
1. If you spend $19.96 will it trigger the 5,000 points?
2. To hit the $20 mark, is this before coupons or after?
I have a store told me that it has to be exactly $20 or more and I still have to hit the $20 mark after coupons and my redeeming points.
- March 3, 2014 at 4:14 pm
Thank you.
- March 3, 2014 at 5:36 pm
I have a question about the walgreens in ad coupons. For example if I have a coupon for $.88 Ajax soap and there is a limit of four per coupon, does that mean I have to use more than one in ad coupon if I want to buy 8 Ajax bottles? Hope this makes sense!
- March 11, 2014 at 10:40 am
OK my fellow coupon fans. I am wondering if i can use the coupons that are attached to my reward cards and the actual coupon in hand?
- March 15, 2014 at 7:38 pm
I just started buying at walgreens but yesterday I went to buy some body wash, I had a coupon for it and I also had a catalina from last transaction but the employee told me I couldn't use manufacturer's and catalina at the same time is this true?
- April 6, 2014 at 7:12 pm
I want to thank you for all the great deals. Recently the cashier told me that walgreens would no longer be accepting coupons that do not scan. We print out those coupons on our home printers from our home computers and the problem is we have no quality control. The maunufactor does not scan them before he pays you the face value plus .08 cents. So why are you refusing our home done coupons? This policy seems very unfair. We are just little nobody individuals trying to make our budget work and you are helping . So please do not refuse our coupons if they are not perfectly printed..
- April 30, 2014 at 10:10 pm
hi, i'm new to couponing and i went to walgreens today to purchase rimmel nail polish buy 1 get 1 50% off and i had 2 coupons from a 1 off each item. The cashier advised me that i could only use 1 coupon because the other coupon exceeded the amount of the other nail polish which was .84. Is that correct?
- May 1, 2014 at 11:57 pm
I did this exact deal, and they just adjusted the coupon so she is wrong, as this topics is discussed a lot on this site, and Christie always indicates when to get the clerk to adjust down the coupon. Many new clerks aren't trained to do this, so sorry to say, but once again it is on the shoulder of consumers. Go back and have them redo the transaction. But legally, they have to write the adjusted number on their coupon, so they only get reimbursed the lower amount, otherwise Walgreens is getting a higher reimbursement then they gave you. Don't take this from cashiers…ask for the adjustment down. I used the two coupons, and got two finger nail polishes free today, and they did the adjustment. My grocery store has a much smarter system and handles this automatically…A company like Walgreens should have much smarter computers.
- May 2, 2014 at 12:00 am
Edit…I may not have got the first fingernail polish free as I think it was like $1.39 (minus $1.00 coupon), then the second was 1/2 or .70 and that one I got free as the clear adjusted the coupon to .70. So got both for .39.
- May 8, 2014 at 7:09 pm
I just moved to Arizona from Texas and iive been checking out the great deals on the site but the do not match up with my store! We'll let me put it this way everything seems to match up except my hair care iteams! Out here on Arizona the deal is get 3 pay for only 2! And it really sucks cu them do not hVe the great deals like RR OR Points! Can you help me get so good deals on how I should I about promo there doing?
- May 12, 2014 at 2:29 am
Is there a limit on how many items you can purchase when using a monthly ivc? Will the deduction apply to all items that apply to that coupon? So if i had a coupon from the monthlyl IVC for crest ..if I buying 10 crest will the coupon apply to all 10 in that single transaction? TIA!
- May 13, 2014 at 8:02 am
Okay I am absolutely new to all of this! I am trying to plan a shopping trip. I am going to be using rewards card. I hope lol My question is I have a coupon $1 on any two schick hydro shave gel. So say 3.79 ea. 7.58 for two minus the dollar coupon 6.58. It says on website Earn Points. •Redeem instantly with as few as 5,000 points is exactly what it says… so question being I do this offer and I pay 6.58 and receive NO LESS then 5,000 points, which is equal to 5.00 in store purchases????
- May 13, 2014 at 11:37 am
I'm also new to Walgreens. I was told that you could not get points on a transaction that you use points. Ok great. But how about when I use my RR, can I still accumulate points if I just use those? So Walgreens has a sale on the Sale on Starbucks Coffee for $4.99 with card and earn 1000 points. If I bought 2 of these $4.99 + $4.99 = $9.98 and use my RR of $5, can I still earn the 2000 points?
- June 5, 2014 at 2:14 am
I've been reading this blog for awhile and had never before seen to give the Wags Qs last. I've always given them first which could be why I always have so many problems with the register not accepting!
- July 10, 2014 at 11:39 pm
Hi there! Okay, so if I buy two items under the BOGO Free sale, and I use a coupon on the item I'm buying, can I also use a register reward in the transaction, since I technically have (2) items? So, (2) items = (2) coupons (i.e. my coupon and my RR).
OR does the 2nd item not count at all toward the total items in the transaction? I.E. I could not use the RR.
Please explain which scenario is correct. Thanks so much!
- July 11, 2014 at 4:13 pm
If an ad coupon says 2 for $4, do I have to buy 2? Or can I buy just one and get $2 for it? I'm still learning how to coupon effectively at Walgreens!
- July 13, 2014 at 2:40 pm
I am having trouble printing. I hit print and it says I must install the program. I accept and then it says I already have it installed, do I want to replace it, I chose yes and nothing happens. I try again and it goes through all the above steps. I am really losing some good coupons. I have printed from this web site for years! Please help.
- July 27, 2014 at 2:20 pm
So today I was told that I could not use a Register Reward from last week. I was told the item that I use the Register Reward on has to now cost MORE than the value of the reward or Walgreens will not take it at all. I pointed out it was money that I had already spent in the store and that I certainly had enough filler items to be more than the 1 coupon 1 item policy but was shut down. Is this happening everywhere?
- July 27, 2014 at 11:40 pm
Re-rang, not re-range! Geesh. What makes me mad is that the managers are enforcing this error in policy on the employees (the cashier told me how she got in trouble ringing up another employee and letting her use a RR…correctly per corporate policy but incorrectly per this manager).
- August 5, 2014 at 3:34 pm
Can i use 1 IVC for 5 items? for example: walgreens has the revlon on sale buy 1 get 1/2 off and and IVC coupon for $3/2 i have a manufacture $3/1 I can combine those right? would I need 5 different walgreens coupons from 5 different books or can i use just one?
- August 21, 2014 at 3:31 am
This is gonna be my first time using coupon at walgreens, they have the ad of loreal if you buy 2 you get 3000 points, my question is if im going to buy 2sets x2 = 4 will i get 6000 points on that for 1 transaction? or do i have to do a separates transaction to avail double points? Pls help.
- September 9, 2014 at 5:50 pm
I have a question about the walgreens reward card. Can we do more than 1 deal in separate transactions? For example, say the quilted toilet paper is on sale for $4.99 and the monthly coupon book has it for $1 off and I have a manufacturer coupon for $1 off for a total of $2.99. If I have several manufacturers coupons can I repeat the deal several times that week for the $2.99 price? Thanks for your help!!

I purchased 12 bottles of L'oreal Shampoo & Conditioner today at a sale price of $3.99/each and it states buy 2 get 1000 RR. I used 12 coupons at $3 off, bringing the total $11.88 pre-tax. However, I was not given 6,000 RR points? When asked the manager, he stated because I used coupons? Can someone confirm?
- March 16, 2015 at 11:57 pm
Hello. I'm new to shopping at walgreens. I jus signed up for the balance rewards online.im having a little bit of trouble understanding the register rewards and the balance points. I'm a bit confused. Could some help me out please so I can better understand. Thank u
- June 9, 2015 at 5:45 pm
just went to walgreens to purchase schick razors, on sale for buy 1 get 1 50% off, also trying to use a coupon for $7.00 off two disposable razors, with the walgreens promotion, spend $20 receive balance reward points of 5,000. I was told that the reward points are generated after the manufacture coupons are subtracted. I thought that the balance reward points are generated before the manufacture coupons are subtracted not after. Thanks for all your help, I enjoy all your tips and knowledge about coupons.
- June 14, 2015 at 6:13 pm
I spoke with Walgreens Balance Rewards customer service last night. They informed me that you can not attach the coupons on the their website and then use a manufacturer's coupon too. I was told that's because they put manufacturer's coupons on their site. That seems wrong since I attached a $10 off coupon of MetaBiotic to my card and had a manufacturer coupon for $2 off and the $10 off coupon didn't show up on the transaction. Has anyone else had this issue?
- November 5, 2015 at 2:45 am
What has happened to our ability to print coupons? It used to be so simple. Now we are stopped dead trying to print coupons. Says they need to verify the computer. They want you to enter your cell phone # to get a "code" to allow you to print. I tried twice and each time the blank to put the code in disappeared before I could put it in. This is crazy! Anything connected with Coupons.com is affected by this. To make things worse, I will probably be charged for this cell phone usage!

Do RR generate for items paid for with Balance Points?

Hi so this Tuesday is Seniors day for Walgreens! So that means 20% off any regular priced merchandise! The product I'm looking to get is an Almay product. It costs approximately $8.50. It is regularly priced with no sales. I also have a merchandise coupon taking off $5.00 from the product as well as a store coupon taking off $3.00 from the product as well. Would it be possible to utilize the 20% off discount while utilizing both of the coupons? And if I can, would the discount be applied before or after the coupons? Would I still be able to use both of the coupons if the value of the coupons exceed the value of the product? It doesn't matter if I don't get back store credit, I just want the product to be free. Thanks!
- February 2, 2016 at 7:46 am
You can use the mfg coupon and the Walgreens coupon since those total less than the the $8.50 (price of product. Walgreens does not allow overage, nor will they adjust manufacturer coupons that exceed the price of item. A percentage off coupon/discount will not work on items that have a Walgreens coupon. If you scan the % coupon or discount, then the Walgreens coupon, the % discount will be kicked off and the Walgreens coupon will be applied instead.
- February 19, 2016 at 1:45 pm
Can you tell me how I can get the specialty coupon booklets, i.e. the Allergy Relief booklet?
- May 12, 2016 at 12:32 am
It has been several weeks since I submitted my questions. Are there some just discarded as worthless? So here goes again. This coupon site has always been my favorite til we had to submit our mobil phone number before we could print coupons. I have no idea who is receiving my number so they can TEXT me back with some "code" number. It does not work! They suggest downloading the printer for Coupons.com. This has NEVER worked either. How did this silliness get started and allowed to continue? I have stopped going to Wags because of this. What about other customers? Does it work for them? Do they not mind giving their number to unknown business? Please answer for me. Thank you.
- July 13, 2016 at 12:28 pm
Can you pay using points $5 off $25 purchase that I earned and still receive another $5 off 25 purchase on a new transaction.
Transaction 1- I bought $25 worth beauty and got $5 to use towards next purchase
Transaction 2 bought $25 worth beauty can I use the $5 points from transaction #1 and still receive $5 towards next transaction or no?
- August 3, 2016 at 2:45 pm
I have a question. can the weekly deals be applied to the stores in Hawaii. It seems like our ads are the same but the process vary by a dollar or so. The items that go on sale in the store, would that be the same here in Hawaii. I was going to do the scenario for 7/31 so I wanted to know if I could do it. Thank you in advance.

I currently live in Hawaii and I was wondering do these same deals apply here as well? Thank you very much for any help you provide

Do coupons from the Walgreens book adjust down automatically if the coupon is over the price of the item? Midol is .53 cents and there is a $2 coupon in the book.

I have a question. I have a P&G RR for $10. As I understand it, I cannot use a P&G RR on P&G items that will give another P&G RR correct? If so, what can I use a P&G RR with because it looks like they manufacture everything!

Hi Christie,
Do you have any insight about how the reward programs will be treated after the WAG-RAD merger is completed? Yesterday a large sale of WAG/RAD stores was announced to Fred's which was the last step for getting the merger approved? As you know, the Plenti plan is owned by American Express and a bunch of other retailers. The Plenti program allows for spending points at all the retailers. Thanks

What is the Walgreen's policy for using coupons that state "Limit one coupon per purchase"? If I buy 2 of the same item and want to use 2 coupons that state limit one coupon per purchase, can I use both of the coupons? Thanks.
- May 8, 2018 at 5:32 pm
I would like to hear what Christie says on this too. I always thought it meant I could use one coupon for each item purchased so if I bought two of the same thing, I could use 2 coupons but today when I tried to do the Bic razor deal, the register would only accept one of the $3 coupons and I was told by the cashier and 2 managers that I could only use one coupon because "per purchase" means the same as per transaction. This totally goes against everything I thought I knew about coupon verbiage.

I went to Walgreens last night to use up my expiring RRs and they said that I could only use the RR on items that were priced the same as the RR or higher so I had $3 RR which i could only use on items priced $3 or more. Is this correct?

If I am purchasing say Dial soap and it is on sale as a buy one get one free, can I still use 2 coupons even though one is free? Any help would sure be appreciated.
- May 20, 2017 at 5:55 am
soft soap 3.99 each buy 2 get 5000 bonus points is there a limit to bonus points I can receive like if I buy 6 soft soaps I can get 15000 bonus points or is this just one offer per card . It does not say anything in fine print about this on ad. Thanks

I am new to couponing. I started about 5 months ago. I follow many youtubers and blogs. Mostly everyone states: you can not use BR points in a spend $XX to get Points deal. However, I have been able to do it twice this week….. The way it has worked is by 'spending' the amount in coupons. I tried this with the BIC (spend 15 get 5000 points) two different ways.
As long as you 'spend' the amount the promotion is requesting (ex: $10 for J&J, or $15 for Bic) even with coupons (total coupons for the transaction, even if your coupons are not on the promotion item it works) or RR…. you will get the bonus points….
But you can only do this when you are buying these items with other stuff that have high value coupons (like I said the coupons don't have to be for the promotion item but it counts toward the amount spent to get the bonus points.)
My 1st breakdown is:
-Parmesan cheese: b1g1 free
-Simple products: b1g150% used b1g wipes free (took max value of 7.99- gave me $16)
-soft soap- known deal
-Bic razors- known deal
In addition to the mfc qs ($32.98 worth) I used
$20 in points
paid $5 in cash…..
I got back
5000p for soft soap
5000p for Bic
5000p for Beauty club
2000p for Simple
My 2nd breakdown is much simpler:
4 oxi detergents
3 BIC razors
4 $3/1 oxi qps= $12
3 $3 BIC coupons= $9
Paid using 10,000 + small cash balance
I received ~6700 back in points (sorry I don't have by receipt handy now)
but I received my 5000 bonus for the BIC deal.

I had an employee and manager tell me that I could not use the get 5000 points when you spend $20 walgreens coupon because I used manufacturer's coupons that took me below the $20 threshold, even though my total before manu coupons was $24. I went to another Walgreens, and they accepted the coupon fine. Is there anywhere in their policy that states what you wrote below so I can show that store that didn't accept it? Thanks,
Under Redeeming points section you have:
Manufacturer's coupons do not impact earning points. So for example if an offer is spend $15 and earn 3,000 points (like the Garnier offer pictured) you will need to hit the $15 before manufacturer's coupons. Walgreens coupons however, do impact your amount. So you would need to reach $15 BEFORE manufacturer's coupons but AFTER Walgreens coupons. This also applies to any special bonus offers like earn $5 in points when you spend $25 in store.

Has anyone returned items and then repurchased them back. I purchased some hair care products,on clearance, a few days ago. I found a coupon for the items I purchased so I wanted to return these items and repurchase them using my coupon. They would not allow me to repurchase them back. Is this part of Walgreen's return goods policy?

Any siggestions.

Hi, I was wondering how I go about using the clip2card feature. I saw some digital coupons at P&G's website and they said something about downloading to card of my choice, but I don't know how that all works. Thanks. Liza

Last week, Alexia in Woodland Hills was looking for a sweet potato souffle recipe. Sheryol in Valencia sent in one.
"I've been making it since the early '70s!" she wrote. Thank you, Sheryol.
As for other requests, Margie in the Inland Empire writes:
"Growing up in Santa Ana, there was the best bakery on Bristol Street and McFadden Avenue named Seeley's Pastries. Everything was delicious but the best was their plain butter/sugar cookies. I have tried over the years to replicate this recipe to no avail.
"They weren't especially sweet and not too doughy. Perhaps you or another reader may have the recipe."
Can anyone help Margie?
Sweet Potato Souffle
3 cooked, mashed sweet potatoes
2 slightly beaten eggs
3/4-1 cup sugar (less if you like it less sweet)
1/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 to 2 tablespoons Cointreau (or any other orange-flavored liqueur)
1/2 cup softened butter
For the topping:
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/3 cup butter, at room temperature
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Combine sweet potatoes, eggs, sugar, milk, vanilla, Cointreau and butter in a large bowl. Beat until smooth and fluffy.
3. Spread in a 2-quart baking dish.
4. Mix together topping ingredients until crumbly, and sprinkle over sweet potato mixture.
5. Bake for 30 minutes.
Serves 6.

Sydnee Capri
Syndee Capri and Sierra grabbed some football gear Billy had left around the house and Sierra dared Syndee to try on his should pads just to play a little dress up. Billy caught them red handed and was pretty upset since he had told Sierra many times before not to goof around with his equipment. Syndee and Sierra knew just how to calm him down by letting him join in the fun. Share and share alike is the rule of the land in Round And Brown town this week. They both took turns getting their round, brown mounds pounded by Billy.

Termination of the confederated tribes of the Grand Ronde community of Oregon: Politics, community, identity
Lewis, David G. (David Gene), 1965-
MetadataShow full item record
Lewis, David G. (David Gene), 1965-
In 1954, one hundred years after the western Oregon Indians were removed to the Grand Ronde Reservation; the antecedent peoples were subjected to the final effort by the United States to colonize the remainder of their lands through Federal termination policy. The permanent Grand Ronde Reservation, settled in 1855 and established by presidential executive order in 1857, was terminated by Congress, and the tribal people lost their Federal recognition. The seven ratified treaties that ceded to the United States millions of acres of land, most of western Oregon, which was occupied by over 60 tribal nations, were nullified. These 60 tribes were declared by Congress to be assimilated, and termination was enacted to free them from continued government management and oppression. In western Oregon, native people appeared to cease to exist, and for 29 years the Grand Ronde descendants suffered disenfranchisement and a multitude of social problems. The reservation's tribal cultures, languages, and community were severely fractured and much was lost. Terminated tribal members were rejected by other tribes as having willingly sold out to the Federal government. During the post-termination era, despite all of the problems the tribal members faced, they found ways to survive and worked to restore the tribe. In 1983, the Grand Ronde Tribe was restored. This research gathers disparate information from political, anthropological, historical, and tribal sources to analyze and understand the termination of the Grand Ronde Reservation. Revealed are the many political issues of the 1940s and 1950s that contributed to termination. Oral histories and government correspondence and reports from the era are referenced to illuminate the reality of tribal life in the post-termination era. The research connects to historic strategies of the Federal government to colonize all aboriginal lands and to assimilate Indians. Finally, this study seeks to unveil the history of the Grand Ronde Reservation and its peoples so that the tribal people may understand and recover from the effects of the termination of the tribe. The continued effects of termination are explored, discussed, and connected to issues of tribal identity and indigenous decolonization.
