Walgreens 12/2 - 12/8 deals

Quote from ashjam67 : And the Crest $2.00 RR rolls.

Am I missing something? I thought that there was only a points deal. Are you saying that you can pay for Crest with a Crest RR and get the points?

Quote from bjork73 : I wonder if the Colgate RR offers for this ad stack with the "Buy 2 Colgate or One Direction get 1000 points" offer listed. I have lots of HE/Crest RRs to roll...

Does anyone know if the DD was sucessful?

Quote from pkp413 : What is the best way to make $10 Q for Breeze2 work with the $5.99 price? I am guessing it would beep and cashiers will just end up calling the manager. Can the Q be denied because it does not say up to $10 off but rather $10 off, which would make this MM?

Both of my stores manually entered $5.99 as manu coupon without scanning the coupon. Then on the coupon they crossed out $10 and wrote $5.99. HTH

Buy 2 meters and coupon doesn't beep. You'll still have some OOP but you'll get 4000 points to make up for it.

ETA- you can also buy 4 and use 2 coupons.

I thought they are not allowed to do that if the coupon does not say up to $10 off (with a small box to fill in the actual value). But I guess they would rather do this than let it be a MM. What if I buy two in one transaction, will the Q beep then? Will I still get 2K x 2 = 4K points?? Just want to make sure that the points are not limited to 1 per balance reward card or transaction (like CVS).

From the Wiki-
Colgate Optic White full toothbrush, Sensitive Pro Relief 360 toothbrush or 360 Optic White toothbrush - $3.49 get $2 RR

Use .50 cent mfq from 12/2 SS. Used this to help get me to $75.00.

The coupon does say up to, but doesn't have the usual line for them to write the price.

By far the easiest thing to do is price modify to $10, but some cashiers don't like to do that either, so it just depends, as most deals do, on the store management and your cashier.

So its Colgate not Crest correct?

You are correct..edited my post.

I blame age, glasses, small phone and too much time at Wags the past 9 days.

Sorry!

They are actually allowed to do that.

"The coupon amount must be reduced if it exceeds the value of the item after other discounts or coupons are applied. (For example, a $5.00 coupon for a $4.99 item will result in a $4.99 coupon value)."
I think most stores would rather price adjust the item, rather than try to adjust the coupon though.

But this is far better than back in the day when the coupon exceeded the price of the item they wouldn't let you use the coupon at all. (For instance, you couldn't use a $1 coupon on a .99 cent toothbrush.)

Can someone tell me what the proper coupon usage for the following which would also be relevant for this week too and for future reference:

Last night I bought 4 Gillette Proglide razors $10.99 ea and 4 Gillette disposable razors which I thought were B1G1 50% off but rang up B1G1 free.

I used (4) $10/1 Proglide razor wyb cartridge or disposables coupons. I didn't know whether or not I could use (1) or (2) or (none at all) B1G1 free Gillette disposable razor coupons. So, I asked the BA who looked at her screen and said they're already B1G1 free so she said she didn't think so. I ended up using (4) $1/1 Gillette disposable razor coupons which she said it was o.k.

I used $20 RR and got $10 RR for the Breeze 2 meter and 29K points (2k points for Breeze 2, 5k bonus points >$50) and got $5 in non-RR/non-point producing items, so really happy about this transaction but wondering about coupon usage that could have maximized my savings. I also bought 3 Centrum Pronutrients in another transaction but didn't get any points.

Quote from unix_micki : Question for the experts.....I only have points but would like to do the proglide later this week when my coupons arrive, is there anyway to turn some points to RR so i can use those to get the proglide points?? Thanks, the points/rr thing is still confusing to me

Heres the RR items:

Colgate Total (4 oz) - $3 get $2.50 RR

Colgate Optic White full toothbrush, Sensitive Pro Relief 360 toothbrush or 360 Optic White toothbrush - $3.49 get $2 RR

Revlon Color Stay Long Lasting (.4 oz) or Scented (.5 oz) , or regular (.5 oz) nail enamel or Revlon Nail Art (.26 oz) - $4.99 get $3 RR

{}{}{} When you have points you dont earn MORE points so need to change em to RRs

** Suggestion since you can cash out in incriments of 5000 points, to maximize your benefits
The colgate would be your best deal
50c on the colgate items Ea
$3+ $3.50 ==> $6.50 -$1 (50cx2)==> $5.50 {5000 points} pay 50cents plus tax
~~ OR ~~~ If you have the 75cent printable you can break even PER 5000 points but get $4.50 in RRs
GET $2.50 & $2 RR {{$4.50 RR}} closest without losing too much BUT you'll need to have the colgate 50cent Qs
BEST bet is if points can be used on papers invest in some points to pay for them to get points turned into some RRs

Where is this $10 q from?

Quote from smoothgalant2 : Where is this $10 q from?

11/11 RP..regional

Found on another site - 12/02 SS has a coupon that says "Get one (1) FREE KREON MICRO-CHANGERS figure (Up to $3.49) value).

Walgreens ad shows "Buy 2 Get 1 free" and shows the Kre-o Transformers in the picture.

Buy 3 and get 1 Free from Wag and 2 free from 2 coupons (no limit on coupon as to how many can be used in a trxn or per day).

I checked the Hasbro website and it says "KRE-O TRANSFORMERS MICRO-CHANGERS are a brand new way to play with your favorite AUTOBOTS & DECEPTICONS" so it looks like this is the same product.

Just an FYI for those that might need some free items to hit the $50 or $75 mark or some free Christmas items for little ones. My SS had it and I'm in SA, Tx.
