Walgreens deals 7/26 – 8/01

In spite of a 21-page ad, sort of a light week for Walgreens in my opinion.  Lots of school supplies featured, and I'm guessing we'll continue to see that for awhile.  However, I can't say that these prices are the best we've seen.

*Register Rewards are coupons that print out after your payment has been processed at checkout.  In general, only ONE will print per deal, per transaction.  (So don't expect to buy 10 toothpastes and get 10 Register Rewards.)  These are good on virtually ANY item in the store (read the fine print for the few exclusions).  You can also turn around and use these immediately.  Do remember, however, that per Walgreens policy, you must have at least as many item as manufactures coupons, and Register Rewards fall into this category.  If you have more items than coupons, simply throw in a cheap "filler item" to ensure your transaction processes.  Also note that these generally have an expiration date of about two weeks out, so pay attention!

Walgreens' Register Rewards do not "roll."  For those of you unfamiliar with Couponese, that means you cannot use your Register Rewards on the same deal in order to receive another Register Rewards coupon.  However, you may apply a Register Rewards from one deal and use it on another.
