Have a Walgreens Question? Ask it here

Last week I visited 4 different times to do 4 different transactions to take advantage of the same RR deals a few times over since I am unsure if my store is OK w/ doing multiple transactions at one time. That meant 4 different trips to the store. Not that I mind, I like to get out of the house, especially to save money and all but it's also somewhat of a pain to have to do multiple outings to one store since I have to work around my fiance's schedule and we have 1 car and all. If it makes more sense in way of savings to continue this way, I will since it's 2 mins away f/ my house anyways... but could my savings be just as good, if not better, if I just get all of my RR deals at once then use the RRs I earned for the following week? Or better yet, I find it so time consuming to sit at home and come up with scenarios on how to get the biggest bang for my buck, where can I see examples of scenarios to try out? Thanks in advance to any replies. I apologize if this question is a do-over, but couldn't sift through 74 pages to find it lol

Depending on your store, you might be allowed to do multiple transactions. Personally, I don't. I don't like to draw unnecessary attention to myself, and I don't clear the shelves to get multiple items.
As for scenarios, they are posted in the weekly thread with the ad scans. We (Mods) do our best to keep the posted deals added to the beginning of the tread, but we have lives outside coupons, and it doesn't always happen as fast as some people would like (including us Mods).

Hi all. I asked this question here last night but for some reason it's not here. I wanted to know if the walgreen coloring book coupons are one time use or can be used over and over until they expire. Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the response :) I must have missed the scenarios posted so will go take a look. I hate drawing attention to myself as well, but feel like no matter which way I do Walgreens, w/ tons of coupons they're bound to remember me anyhow.

I remember reading your question and not sure what happened to it either. What are the coloring book coupons? TIA!

Most of the stores around here try to keep them because they're some sort of "special" coupons. Other members have posted that they are able to keep them, so I guess it's YMMV.
These coupons (in the activity book) are not to be used on sale merchandise. Posting about using them on sale merchandise on HCW will result in the post being deleted and infraction points may be issued, since that is against the wording of the coupons.

okay, I need help. I think I am okay, but need someone to tell me for sure, if I use a uniliever coupon from the skippy rr's this week to buy the vasaline lotion next week will it print the $7 rr still? I think i am okay because it is a different rr offer but can someone tell me for sure.

thanks.

It was posted in the weekly deal thread that they had successfully rolled the Vaseline onto the Dove and the Dove into the Ragu. All three are unilever products. Here is the link to the comment.

I have rolled unilever into unilever in the past, but haven't done the deal this week.

Hi! Sorry these questions might have already been asked, but I don't have time to scan through 51 pages to find out . Okay, can you use IP's at Walgreens? And If the ad says Limit 1 coupon printed per offer like on Gillette Fusion razors but I have 5 coupons, could I do 5 seperate transactions and get the $6 RR each transaction?
Thanks for the help!!

Yes, you should be able to use IPs.

You can do 5 separate transactions and get the $6 RR each time. In most cases, if you use the RR from an offer to pay for the same offer, the RR will not print. The Fusion razor is a P&G product and the RR has special wording stating that it can't be used to purchase P&G items. So, you might want to roll the razor RRs into something else and then roll those RRs back into the razors.

Is there a list of what P&G Items are? I"m trying to roll the $6 RR i got last week into the zantac and theraflu items this week and then hopefully a couple more razors.
