By consensus, the weekly Walgreen's Ad is being replaced by this comprehensive thread. Until Walgreen's gives us better deals, we'll be able to follow more easily all the comments in one continuous thread.

Please post any tips, deals, coupon finds to help us all improve our Walgreen's shopping experience.


Thanks to Sugraray for the reminder:

If it is a BUY deal, ex: Buy 2 and earn RR, you can use WCR, RR, MQ, IVC whatever you want and still will earn your reward.
If it is a SPEND deal, ex: Spend $12 earn $5 RR, be careful! You cannot use WCR because that is taken off before it totals your spend. Same with IVC coupons (Walgreens coupons, found in the little paper book and also digital). If you have RR, be sure it is the regular manufacturer RR with a normal large barcode. That is treated like a MQ so you do need an item without another coupon to attach to. The store RR have a small barcode and says Store Coupon and lowers your "Spend" amount.

Important Information not to be Ignored: Updating 8/8/2023 Restarting the Info thread.

If you have an issue in store, first come here and post about it. Do not run off to call Corporate because it can have unitended consequences.


(No longer available in store-The monthly book is in your DQ account coupons)
IVC is the paper coupon book found at the front of the store, new each month. Also available as digital store coupons. These are Walgreens coupons that can be paired- used at the same time as regular MQs.

At Walgreens, you must have one item for each coupon to attach to. For example: you are buying detergent, there is IVC for $1/1 and you have MQ $1/1. That is two coupons, so you need to add an item without a Q as a filler. Often Ramen, candy bar, sometimes tuna or broth.



Abbreviations:

DQs (Digital Coupons found on your account)
OTU (One Time Use)
OFY (Only For You-DQs)
Booster (Points coupons found digitally on your account or printed in store at the register's catalina machine)
PO or BOPIS (Pickup Order or Buy Online Pickup In Store)


Do I earn rewards on prescriptions?
You earn 1% Walgreens Cash rewards on the amount you spend out of pocket in our stores, including the amount you spend for a prescription. A prescription with a $0 copay won't earn Walgreens Cash rewards because you didn't pay anything out of pocket for the prescription. (Varies by State)


What do I need to redeem my Walgreens Cash rewards?
Your email or home address is required to redeem Walgreens Cash rewards. The best way to access personalized deals and additional program benefits is by adding your email address to your profile. - Your zip code is your redemption code.


You can earn 5% Walgreens Cash rewards on all Walgreens branded products. This means anytime you buy a product carrying the Walgreens brand name—including beauty products like facial cleansers or nail polish remover and health essentials like vitamins—you'll earn unlimited 5% Walgreens Cash rewards.

How does Pickup at Walgreens work?
Our Pickup service makes it easy to shop your local store online at Walgreens.com or with the Walgreens App, then pick up your order in as little as 30 minutes.4 Choose your store and shop products on Walgreens.com or the Walgreens App. Then choose curbside, drive-thru or in-store pickup. It's easy! We'll send you a notification email (and text if you opt in) when your order is ready, then visit the store and tap the "I'm here" button in the email or text link to let us know. A team member will bring the order to you.


How do I create a digital Wallet for contactless checkout? (Updated some areas have no access to this)

Join myWalgreens® and make sure you're using the latest version of the Walgreens App. Once you sign in to myWalgreens on the app, select your digital Wallet in the menu to add your credit card. Then you can start enjoying fast, contactless checkout!

Q & A
Credit: Valencia22

KikiandD Q:
"I am not a Walgreen's Extreme Couponer, though I aspire to be. I think you actually have to have a total over the booster threshold to get the points. Like, this week my digital booster amount is $30, so I have to actually spend that. I *think* that you can use register rewards in the store as part of your payment and it will still work, but I haven't gotten to this level yet. Still trying to amass register rewards.
Still a little confused about how it works if you use some Walgreen's bucks but still spend over the amount. I don't think that would work but I could be wrong. But another question, If you use Walgreen's bucks but still spend over $20 out of pocket, will that transaction count on your score card (meaning, do seven transactions of $20 or more in December, and earn an extra $10 in points)?"

Valencia22 A:

Yes, you can use Register Rewards to help cover your amount toward Boosters but you have to make sure that the ones you use say, Manufacture CPN at the top. Those count like coupons. You just have to make sure you have an item for each one to attach to. The Register Rewards that say Store CPN at the top work like store coupons so that amount would count against your total and only one can be used per transaction.

As far as boosters, the digital ones are more flexible to use than the printed ones. Printed ones, you can not use any Wags Cash and still earn the Booster. With the digital offers, as long as your subtotal before manufacture's coupons but after any Wags Cash/StoreCredit/Store Qs used is equal to or greater than the amount of your threshold, you can earn the Booster. To specifically answer your question about your 7 transactions, you don't have to spend $20 cash oop each time. Manufacture's coupons and RRs will count towards that $20. I did a transaction this week that may be a little bit more advanced but hopefully it will give you a better idea of what I am saying:
My Booster Offer was $5 wys $20 so I bought:

3 Snickers Bars $2.64 - $1/2 ip
2 Colgate Renewal $13.98 - $3 dq - $3 dq
2 BIC Razors $9.73 - $5 dq
2 Colgate Adv. $7.98 - $4/2 dq
2 Crest PH $6 - $2 mq - $2 mq
Subtotal: $40.33
I redeemed $20 in Wags Cash so now my total was $20.33 (still enough to earn Booster)
$20.33 - $20 qs = .33 + tax (paid oop)
I got back $9 WC ($5 = Booster, $4 = Colgate) $13 RR ($6 = Colgate Renewal, $4 = BIC and $3 = Crest). I also earned an extra $2 WC because I get 10% back all month for my birthday and I got .75 rebate offer for the Snickers

Wags can be confusing and irritating sometimes. I have had my share of failures but it gets a bit easier over time."

Saw commentary that their new system is limiting identical qs to 4/trx regardless of whatever language is on the q. If correct, that will be interesting.

More wags nonsense this morning. Points boosters for this week and next week that were just added yesturday have disappeared from my accounts.
Also not showing current balance or letting me redeem online.
My guess is there's some kind of additional update going on right now.
ETA: Last time it looked that way on their site you could not redeem in store either. Huge PITA!

I got a ludicrous deal today in my email:
Free shipping with orders $10 plus and 15% off wys $30. So when I put $10 in the cart and entered the code, it said it didn't apply. Thanks, Wags. I've begun to think anything I buy online is a waste of time, since every time I attempt to put a basket together, there's inevitably some product that is not in stock at the store I select, so even after I shop around at various stores, it ends up being impossible. Here's the relevant text from the email. Note, since I had a $6 wys $20 points booster, I had put over $20 in the order (after Qs) before trying for the free shipping. I didn't attempt to use Wags cash or any other discounts other than the ones clipped to my account (dqs and the points booster).

"Hop back to your day: FREE Same Day Delivery on $10+ & 15% off Sitewide on $30+ with code HAPPY15"

That ain't happening. Don't know why I bother.

That it is. I just went to the store, put together a whole transaction with Crest, Pantene, Secret and SheaMoisture only to get to the register and have her tell me the whole system is down so no dq's would apply and it won;t connect to my account at all. Not even sure I want to go back at this point to try it later.

Be careful. Some people are reporting wags employees taking their rejected RRs and not giving them back & the system is still down for RRs.

The system wouldn't accept my rr today, of course, but the mgr came up and knew exactly what to do. The cashier hit continue on the message that said the rr coupon was rejected and then I lost track of what the mgr did. But there is a work-around in place and they were able to deduct my rr.

I used to get a digital booster every week but haven't received any the last 3 weeks. In store purchases don't trigger boosters either when they used to print every so often…. Is anyone having similar experience?

My mom used her account to buy toothbrushes in one transaction which only printed a rr. Then she immediately bought a bunch of stuff (~45) with the rr and a booster printed. Wondering if it's a new programming in wags system to generate boosters for high spenders

I chatted via email with a supervisor at Fetch Rewards today and FYI, the reference to a Unilever offer in this week's ad was a misprint. There is no $10 in Fetch points wyb $30 in qualifying Unilever products offer going on at the present time.

Well expect it to get worse now. Coupon fraud from those Nasacort & Allegra coupons have caused some serious changes. This incident has reinforced coupon hatred among managers and cashiers and now they have more excuses to reject coupons & couponing. I remember when we use to have no limits and now limits are getting tighter.

I wonder if the eqs are still dd'ing or if they fixed it. There are so many variations on the high value qs that figuring out the o on a given purchase where more than 1 applied would be complicated.... I haven't analyzed the qs but it seems like there might potentially be a lot of o on some products....

I never heard of DQs stacking on 1 item since the glitch started.
