(I have copied this from penny pile from my blog list and am just editing it to make it sound easier)
I may go back and edit if I have questions look for new colors.
As you walk into to Walgreens look for two things
Weekly Ad
It contains all sales that week and some in-store coupons which you may use in combinations with manufacturer coupons.(Most of the sales in the weekly ad are only good that week along with the coupons in the ad)
Easy Saver Catalog
Each month Walgreens issues an Easy Saver Catalog. It contains both store coupons and a list of rebates offered by Walgreens view online here. (If you can't find it ask a cashier they always have them at the registers to. it is brochure size for the most part these items are good all month)
Good to Know Tips
Rebates
You can submit rebates by mail or online here. Online is really easy. You check off your offers then enter your receipt numbers located at the top of all receipts. You then save for later or submit. If you forget, Walgreens submits it for you 7 days after the month is over. Once you press submit you can not add any more rebates for the month.
You receive your rebate in form of a check or gift card. If you choose gift card, then they pay you an extra 10% on top of your original total! If you receive your rebate by mail, pay attention. It looks like junk mail, the return address reads "Young America"
Some rebates make the product free. Others may be free if used in combination with a coupon.
Register Rewards(RR)
Walgreens will have sales where you may get Register Rewards back. These are coupons that print off with your receipt. It's good for $$ off your next purchase. It will read something like "$4 off your next in-store purchase" These usually expire after about two weeks. You may not use them for an amount less than the coupon. There are a few things excluded listed on each coupon, such as dairy, lottery, stamps, alcohol.
For some reason it sometimes confuses the Register Reward printer if you use a Register Reward to pay for your purchase. Sometimes it just cancels each other out. I suggest not using Register Rewards if you expect to get some back in the same purchase.especially if you use a RR from the same deal as your new transaction
Important! The number of coupons cannot exceed the number of items purchased in a transaction!
It sounds crazy, but I run into this problem a lot. Toss in some cheap candy or something to even out your numbers.A good idea is the clearance isle sometimes they have some for just pennies but its an item so it still counts
Here are some abbreviations I will use in my posts
ESR= Easy Saver Rebate
ESC= Easy Saver Coupon
SC= Store Coupon
RR= Register Rewards
One more little tip. Walgreens will not let you use more coupons than you have items. So, no using 2 register rewards for one item, ect.
