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."

Good idea Instead of a green bag, maybe we should all start bringing a WG plastic bag into the CVS store to put our purchases in LOL Wonder if Corporate would get the idea after a while

Wags was an absolute shit show today. The bonus P&G $5 RR didn't print on Old Spice bodywash. Always didn't print anything even though it was tagged. There was supposed to be some kind of magic with the 2 and 4 Always but, like I said, it was a shit show. On the plus side, Haribo wild berry gummies and Kinder Harry Potter eggs were on clearance for 29 cents. CVS was an even bigger shit show but that's another post for another shitty day.

They refund you the value of the RR you redeemed.
Quote from munchkin77 :
Maybe that is the case with MQ RRs but that was not the case for me with store RR on Saturday
I should have added that qualifier, refunds value of the RR if it's a manufacturer RR, but not the store RR. Store RRs are treated like a $5 off your purchase of $5 or more (or applicable amount), and don't refund that value.

They are not the manus of the bags. I tell the stores to double the bags. Lately, wags has been giving people plastic bags that has holes in them.

Shop using caution because P&G RRs stop printing after Tuesday. Then start back by Thursday.

I use whatever bag I pull out of my 'shopping bag' .
Sometimes it is a Orange cloth CVS bag, sometimes Wags or Walmart.

Wags is one fail after another. I went in this morning and got 2 Gains and rolled the two 5's and everything worked perfectly. I went to a different store in the afternoon and only the 5/15 printed I tried it with and without rolling. I did a transaction with Crest mouthwash and the $5 dq didn't apply then I did it with toothpaste and it worked. This one rolled but what works one second at Wags fails the next second. How can a company this screwed up stay in business? You never know what's going to happen when you walk into Wags. You can study the deals all day and do everything perfectly but still have your deal mess up because Wags changed it. Just leave everything the blank alone and let us shop.

At least your Wags has product for what you want to buy. I don't shop often, but anytime I try to put an on line order together, the two stores I have available are out of stock. And this is always on a Sunday when I first look at the ad. I'm not sure how anyone is able to do anything at Wags. Very frustrating.

Because wise couponers go to the store. It's not always an OOS issue. It's a lazy ass employee issue.

I looked online and Gain had two RR offers. I went in yesterday morning and it worked perfectly. My store only had 2 bottles so that's all I could do. I asked if they had any more in the back and the manager said that they don't get very many and everything was out. I have no way to know if that's true or not. I went to another Wags later in the day and only one RR printed so I couldn't do the deal. I tried it twice. The first time was with rolling the two RR's and using $10 W Cash. The second time was with no RR's and $20 W Cash. Both times only one RR printed so I couldn't do the deal. I'm not going to call and beg for my RR's that should've printed. Fortunately, Wags was on the way to somewhere else that I was going otherwise it would've been a wasted trip. There have been issues since Sunday with RR's not printing correctly. The deals work fine one minute and don't work the next minute. This happens every week. This week is worse than it usually is but every week is bad. My opinion is that Wags watches what people post on the internet and changes the deals. They weren't happy about the RR's rolling on the Gain deal and took one of the RR's away. The fact that the RR's rolled was 100% Wags fault. We can't make them roll. I just wanted to do the deal. Rolling made it easier to do but I would've done it with or without the roll. The bottom line is that you can't count on Wags for anything except a hassle. If you're willing to go to Wags and have a problem 50% of the time, then Wags is the store for you. Yes, some of the deals are fantastic but is it really worth it? I need to be able to count on having everything work correctly when I go there. A great deal on Gain that only works half of the time isn't that great. Maybe the best plan is to shop at Wags early on Sunday before Wags has a chance to mess the deals up. That requires knowing about all of the special offers before the week starts. The website isn't much help with that. I signed up for all of the emails and my inbox gets flooded with them but I never get an email about the deals that I actually would do. It's always something online or in photo. I agree with yens. Wags is incredibly frustrating.

Disabled couponers are not able to go to the store. Used to send my husband without first ordering for pick up and guess what? He also found items out of stock so that is not a solution in my city.

ETA: Not sure how it can be a 'lazy ass employee issue' as the web site, not an employee, tells me the stock is not sufficient to do my order.

If they do not have the stock to put on the shelf than they are very well OOS.
The stores I shop don't have lazy staff members.
