Have a Walgreens Question? Ask it here

I have 10 RR's(I purchased the 8 jars of Ragu). If I use the RRs to buy more Ragu, will I receive an 10 RR's or would I have to use cash in order to receive the RR's?

I think I used RR's about 6 mos ago and I didn't receive the RR's that I expected and was told that it was because I used RR's to pay.

thanks,
pat

Im heading out to roll the deals one more time. My husband told me to get some more Mt. Dew 12 packs. soooo since no more coupons for skippy/ragu I will just pay for the extra costs. Its still a great deal with our without coupons.

if you use the RR from the Ragu to purchase more Ragu the system will not print another RR. That is called "rolling" and you can't roll RR and get another one.
You can pay for Pepsi with the Ragu RR and get another RR from the Pepsi deal, then use the RR from the Pepsi deal on the Ragu deal.

1/24/09. I spoke with the local walgreens manager at 78th & palm river here in fl. And he (rick) told me that walgreens is going to do away with the rr program all together, that it was discouraging customers more than enticing them. Has anyone else heard this rumor?

How do RR discourage customers?

I haven't heard that, of course there will always be rumors, just like with the CVS ECB program. I can't imagine they would do away with RRs-this program is what brings in customers to make purchases other than prescription medication. That would be a really bad move on WAG's part, especially in areas with CVS all over the place.

I agree with Mikki I don't see it happening, nor have I heard/read anything about it being done away with. IMO these days with so many retailers begging for sales I dont' see them doing away with a program that helps drive sales. If anything I think we will all see retailers being more agressive to get our business.

I have a question...


do the 7-day coupons from the ad count as coupons for the rule that you have to have more (or equal) items then coupons? I thought they weren't suppose to but I swear one time it wouldn't let me.... it was few months ago though so maybe I don't remember right... and it was a RR that was scanned last that beeped and those sometimes give problems for other reasons... but when I threw a candy bar on to make it an equal number of coupons and items including 7-day coupons, it worked.

but anyways what I want to do tomorrow is:

2 carefree
2 brawny
1 colgate total

so 5 items

the coupons I have are
two $1/1 brawny
two $1/1 carefree
one .75/1 colgate
7-day carefree
7-day brawny

so does that count as 7 coupons or do just the 5 manu coupons count? Ever since that RR beeped one time I've been counting the 7-day coupons and just throwing on a filler item just in case... but I really don't want to buy anything extra tomorrow... I'm really sick of candy lol... never thought I'd say that lol

You probably didn't have a high enough total before tax to use the RR.

i dont see it happening... if they did this they would have to reduce prices by tenfold...
