There is a P&G insert due out tomorrow and you’ll notice a few sales at both Rite Aid and Walgreens to match the coupons with. Don’t be hasty in using those high value P&G coupons, folks. There may be additional deals coming you’ll want to have them for. I remember a particularly HOT Albertsons P&G promotion early in January 2009 where I ended up with a decent stock of Pampers for cheap. So watch!

In fact, there are a few P&G Register Reward “deals” I’m intentionally omitting from this week’s ad because I do NOT believe they are truly deals. Just because there’s a Register Reward involved doesn’t mean it’s the way to go. I only share matchups that I honestly believe are worth considering. And this is a fairly light week for Walgreens.

Don’t forget there are a lot of coupons set to expire on the 31st. I noticed that we have a bit of an overlap from the 11/29 P&G insert and the 12/27 insert – for instance, both have a $0.50/1 Pepto Bismal coupon you could use. Just make sure to do so before the 31st. The Healthy Savings Booklet coupons also expire on the 31st. I suspect we’ll see a January Walgreens coupon booklet out as soon as tomorrow. Look for it in your store near the ads or on endcaps.

$0.50 Walgreens foil with in-ad coupon
10-pack yellow or 5-pack mechanical pencils
$0.49 Mars candy bars with in-ad coupon 
Look for holiday decor and candy on DEEP discount – look for small items; they usually abound!
