Walgreens- Where have you found the new Healthy Savings Book?

This new Healthy Savings Book seems to be hard to find. I have been to 4 Walgreens in the Ballwin, MO area and have not found any employee who knows what it is. If you have found one, would you mind listing the store where you found it and the location in the store?

Thanks!

Have you inquiry with the managers? I had to inquire with our manager here in Colorado and I was told Most are found near the ads though I was also told by our manager that they don't have room for all of the books, newspapers and ads up front, so most are being stored at the front Cashier.

I found mine at the walgreens on 37th and 35th ave in Evans, Co. I asked a few people, all thought I was talking about the IVC from last month, before I found someone who decided to go looking for me. She found it behind the front reg. counter and happily handed it over to me! It really didn't seem like anyone even knew they were there.

Is there more than one Heathy Savings Book? I went to my Walgreens today and they had 2 stacks about 6 inches high. She gave me about 10 of them and then when I saw what they were I gave some back because I already have some. Is the book that everyone is looking for have a picture of an African American family on the cover? I personally want the Diabetes & You book, thats the one that has the lubriderm in right?

Walgreens across from St. Anthonys - St. Louis, MO - Had a bunch of them.
Walgreens in Farmington, MO - Had too many to count.

Out of about 20 Walgreens I've been in only 3 had any.

These are the Green Healthy Savings, Mom on the Front with 2 kids.

Hi

I actually haven't been out shopping this week so I've not searched for this book at my local stores. But, I did receive one in a very generous RAOK. I have all 3 books right in front of me, the November Coupon Book, the 1st Healthy Savings Book and now this new 2nd Healthy Savings Book.

I do have to say the new book and the November book are VERY similar. The same size and shape, even same thickness. The 1st HSB is a completely different shape and pretty thin.

I have looked through the new one and the November one and MOST of the coupons are exactly the same. Both state they expire on 11/28 on the front cover. The 1st HSB expires on 12/31. The back covers of both the new HSB and the November book are green, white and red.

My point is, these two books are so close in likeness and in what coupons are in them. Does anyone but me think they are being easily overlooked? Not by customers/us but by the cashiers etc. that are supposedly looking for them but can't find them? Or, that since they have basically the same coupons in them why bother putting out both?

Honestly, since I'm always on the lookout for coupon books I would quickly notice it was different. But maybe the people in charge in putting them out aren't so concerned and just think they already have some of them out. Maybe mistaking the November book for this new HSB??:shrug7:

I just counted:
The November book has 68 coupons
The 2nd (new)Healthy Savings book has 55 coupons
I also matched them coupon for coupon.
There are only 18 coupons that are either different or missing from this new HSB from the regular November book. Plus, one that is a different amount off.
See what I mean? If you glanced through them quickly they could easily be mistaken for being the same book??
