Get Walgreens coupons
Thread Details
Last Edited by Lakebreeze September 4, 2021 at 09:12 PM
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)

Q & A

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."

It says that I still have the get $10 when you do three $15 orders dq available but I'm sure that I've done more than 3 orders.
store cash on a store card & they'll either return the rest to your card (depending on kind) or cash if it's a debit card.
I'm still trying to navigate the website and it's not easy. I had to turn off my computer and start all over again because it wouldn't get off of previously viewed items when I tried to do a search and then when I finally found the item it said that the store didn't carry it when I was there on Friday and I saw the spot for it and they had 4 in stock. Also, I couldn't get the earned W Cash to come up on my pick-up order which is why I'm not sure about what I'll earn.

I'm going to go in there and do the best that I can and if I screw up at least I'll know what to do and what not to do for the future.
I'm evaluating W Cash and I see a lot of pros and cons to it. The main con is that I keep on having to spend money if I want to earn more W Cash. Maybe I can figure out a roll with RR's to cut y oop down. I just realized that I have a RR left over from last week so that will save me another $4. I should have a slot for it with the $2 dq (if it's not an IVC) taking up 1 slot (since I'm buying 2 items).
What to do you think of the BOPIS acronym? I hate it but it's perfect for Wags. It's as confusing as the shopping experience lol.
You need to go to MY ACCOUNT and scroll around there. I posted more details previously about this. You can see how many trans you have been credited for .on the Spend $15 in 3 trans , get $10 WCR. Is a graphic with sliding bar in blue.
You can also check your transactions and how much WCR you got on them, but doesn't say which deal. Its under Purchase History or something like that.
Just found that over the weekend.
You should also qualify for the 3 deals this week promo, I'll bet.
Scroll around the webpage maybe you'll find some answers.
Oh, and the $10 doesn't "come off", its added on .
After my pick up orders, the receipt did NOT show that I earned anything. I had to go get some candy bars and pay for them to show the WCR I have now. So, it just shows the new total for me, not Earned this trans cause I earned in previous pick up transaction. DK why this happens at my store. Very annoying!
DQ's can be Manufacturers coupons which don't count against your total, But Monthly IVC's and Store coupons Do. Where you clip it usually shows which type of coupon it is.

I wish that they still had the IVC book. It was so much easier. The paper ads, too. They save a lot of money in printing costs but I wonder how much they lose when people don't come in. I won't go to Wags unless I know exactly what I want and how much it will cost me. It can take a week to read the online ad. There needs to be a shorter version. The old paper ads were great. I don't know why they changed to this mess.

I advise those that are not familiar regarding redemption to just pay the price outright until you learn. Because CS sees redemptions as excuses to say no. The CS is correct about a penny short. If you had gotten a .45 caramel, it'd go through.

Subtotal - WC Used/Store Qs/Store Discounts = or greater than the highest threshold amount
In your case:
$30 (do not factor in tax for this part) - $10 WC = $20 eligible spend
If you add a $2 item, then you can earn both
$32 - $10 WC = $22 eligible spend
