PLEASE FOLLOW STEPS OUTLINED BELOW and DO NOT USE WAGS CASH TO PAY!
1. Log into your Walgreens Account
www.walgreens.com
2. Clip or see if you've already clipped the following Coupons (ALL MUST BE CLIPPED PRIOR TO PAYING)
- You can find coupons to clip here:
https://www.walgreens.com/offers/offers.jsp
- Earn $5 Wags Cash wys $20 (most accounts have this but not all)
- $4 off 2 colgate
- $4 off 2 colgate (two coupons total, clip both)
- $1 off 2 Blue Diamond Extreme Almonds cans
- $3.50 off Softsoap/Irish Spring Body Wash or bar soap
3. Add the following items to your cart (use instock at store button on left hand side of page so you know what items are available at your local pick up store)
4. Your total after digital coupons come off will be $10.06, you will earn about $11.20 back in Wags Cash ($4 on Colgate, $2 on Colgate, $5 on $20 offer and regular purchase amounts) Sales tax will apply based on what's taxed in your state.
TIPS: ALLOW LIMITED SUBSTITUTIONS FOR SAME BRAND (ie other flavors of BD extreme, other Colgates at same price which earn the Wags Cash) BE SPECIFIC in your Substitution comments.
DO NOT PAY WITH WAGS CASH, if it drops below $20 using wags cash, you'll void the $5 Wags Cash offer.
Addtionally, if you use the FETCH APP, you will earn the following by scanning your receipt:
850 points x 3 on the Colgate items (2550 points) and 2000 points on the EXTREME flavor Almonds (1000 points x 2) these points are worth $4.55 towards their gift card redemptions! (assuming you haven't maxed out on these offers yet)
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, ASK THEM. Don't threadcrap the deal if you don't understand it, happy to answer questions or concerns.

Not saying this isn't a good deal. The end of your post where you micromanage people by saying "no threadcrapping if you don't understand the deal" isn't necessary, especially when you yourself don't seem to understand the difference between free items and investing money into a future purchase. Your whole post describes the latter. FREE would be them giving you the items with either no monetary exchange, or by giving you actual money back that at is at least equal to your purchase amount.
It's the same thing with deals that are free after rewards at Office Depot or any such deal.
In the world of deal hunting at stores like Rite Aid, CVS, Walgreens, Office Depot, etc most deal hunters understand the 'free' concept in that you are given equal or more spending power to use again. These are stores that people shop at on a regular basis, so paying Wags $10 now to get $24 worth of stuff to have another $11 to spend tomorrow is actually better than them giving me $24 worth of stuff for $0 now than not having even more to spend the next time (and an extra $4 towards gift cards at FETCH if you use that app).
As for the threadcrapping, that had to do with not understanding the deal as far as the mechanics of it. I just find people who nitpick about it being 'free' especially when it's made clear as the sun in the title making much ado about nothing. No one was mislead and it's perfectly clear you have to spend the money now to get the money to spend again later. So what is the issue then? Don't want to go that route to make it free, then don't mess with it, but you can't say you weren't told even before you clicked on the thread.
And as to your 50% off the next time (head scratching) you are given back the same amount of spending power you just laid out. So the next $11 purchase is 100% paid for too, not 50% off that purchase, and you may easily earn $10 in spending power again on that purchase with wags cash or register rewards or a rebate or whatever.
and PS, Wags Cash is valid for 12 months, so the fear mongering about using it while it is valid is definitely over the top IMO.

Nowadays I do it every once a while for fun. A few weeks back, there was a Crest Toothpaste - buy 3 for $9, use a $5 coupon and get $4 RR…use that on 2 Colgates, pay $6 less $3 coupon and use the $4RR (had to add a $1 worth of candy), get $3 W Cash…repeat on the Colgate (2 $3 coupons)…boom for pretty much only tax, you have 7 toothpastes and set for few months.
I do prefer Walgreens over CVS and we have no RiteAid in Illinois…
What happens to a deal like this when they adjust your order because of stock? They cancelled some of my items so now my subtotal is below the $20. Does that mean I lose the $5 bonus for a $20 purchase?

Yes unfortunately you do The "expected" rewards are just expected, they are recalculated
What you can do is to do a return/rebuy (adding enough to make it over $20)…

If I do return/rebuy, would it let me use coupons again? I figured they would just show redeemed on my account now. Maybe I will just call the store, tell them to cancel the orders and then try again online.

Depending on the store manager, they will either return pre-coupon money and then ring you up without coupons OR manually adjust the return price to post-coupon price and then again adjust price while rebuy…technically you can just return and cash out the coupons but their system tracks it (it generates a report at corporate if refund amount is greater than amount paid - part of fraud prevention) - I don't think they do anything if it's a one-off, only if it happens regularly
