I know there are a lot of beginners hitting the Walgreens sales this week. A note about Register Rewards (RRs.)
.
This can be a little bit tricky to explain so read carefully.
.
When you use RRs on a purchase, you can not use RRs for item x to get the same item x...what does not mean? Let me use an example from this week below.
.
If I buy Right Guard for $2.99, I get back $2 RRs (totalling $.99 after RRs.) You can only get one type of each RR in a transaction. I could not buy 3 Right Guards and expect to get 3 $2 RRs in next transaction. I could, however, buy Right Guard in 3 separate transactions as Walgreens does not have a loyalty card.
.
If I use that $2 I got in RRs, I can not go and buy another Right Guard with that same RR because the $2 RRs will not print. I can use the Right Guard $2 RRs to buy another RR item just not the same item I got the RRs for. Make sense?
.
Finally, RRs will still print if you use a coupon. You can pay with RRs and still get RRs to print (just remember the rules above.)
.
P.S. There is always less trouble when you give the cashier your RRs (when you are using them as store money) before your coupons. I am not sure why.

This comes in handy...I just got my first RR today at walgreens for the colgate toothpast, I never even knew walgreens had this, and I've shopped there for years. I enjoy your website very much!
Thanks for the ink refill tip! I just filled 2 cartridges for $15 with a B1G1 coupon.
I received different info about the rewards program when I asked about it, though. They told me that I had to pay for a prescription club membership in order to get any discounts, which sounded like what you refer to as RR. Do you have any knowledge of this? Am I asking for the wrong thing?
Beth, there is a reward plan called the Wcard. I have a post about this as well. We will talk about this perscription plan soon when they have a $25 giftcard for a perscription refill. You do not need to join the perscription club for RRs. There is not reward program (like CVS) at Walgreens. Everyone is welcome to RRs.
What are RR's? I how the heck do I start? Or Where do I start?! LOL Any help at all would be appreciated!! Thank you in advance! :-)
Cookie,
This would be a great place to start. Let me know if you have more questions.
