Walgreens Shopping Scenarios for the week of 9/30!!

Here is KCL's Walgreens shopping scenarios for the week of 9/30!  Click here to see the rest of the deals.   First, here’s everything you need to know about shopping at Walgreens:  Walgreens allows one manufacturer coupon and one store coupon per product. You may use Walgreen’s Register Rewards in addition to these coupons.  The Register Rewards print like a Catalina on a little machine near the cash register.  The most important thing to remember when coupon shopping at Walgreens is that you have to have as many items to purchase as you have coupons, including any Register Rewards you want to use.  We often use “filler” (cheap, extra items) so that we have enough items to purchase.

Walgreens is certainly the hardest drugstore to shop, but it has the best deals!  What I like most is that you can repeat the deals and get more product.  The limits are just one per transaction, so you can get more than one item–just don’t clear the shelves!!  Here’s a link to the coupon policy.

Buy 1 Gillette Venus or Fusion ProGlide Razor Systerm, excludes ProGlide Styler $9.99
Buy 1, Receive $4.00 Register Reward
Use one $4.00/1 Gillette Fusion ProGlide Razor, excludes Fusion ProGlide Styler and trial/travel size, limit of 4 like coupons in same shopping trip from RP 8/12 (exp 9/30)

CVS Shopping Scenarios for the week of 9/30!

Here is the KCL's CVS Shopping Scenarios for the week of 9/30!  CVS allows one manufacturer coupon and one store coupon per product. You may use CVS Extra Bucks (EBs) in addition to these coupons. Extra Bucks are their rewards that are printed at the end of your cash register receipt. These coupons can be used on your next purchase. Remember, if there is a limit in the ad for the Extra Bucks items, this limit is per CVS Extra Care Card.

The best deals to be had at CVS are “Extra Bucks” offers. The best thing about CVS is their rainchecks, which include the “Extra Buck” offers, so you can still get the offer when they have more stock!

Here is the KCL's shopping scenarios for the week of 9/16. You can see all of the Rite Aid deals here.  Before shopping at RiteAid you should sign up for a Wellness card or get one in your store. The best deals at Rite Aid utilize the +Up Rewards and the Single Check Rebate (SCR) system. In addition to the +Up Rewards which now load to your card,  Rite Aid sends you a monthly check for the total of all your rebates purchased during that month with the SCR program. You can cash the check as you would any other check.

Through the SCR program, you can watch videos on products and receive Video Value coupons. These coupons can be printed from your computer after you watch the corresponding videos. You can use each coupon once per Wellness card. Go here for Rite Aid’s updated coupon policy.  

As of September 2nd, 2012, +Up Rewards are automatically loaded to your wellness+ card (they will no longer print at the bottom of register receipts.  UNLESS YOU OPT OUT AT THE STORE!). In addition, a +Up Reward can only be redeemed starting at 6AM on the day after it was earned and expires 14 days after issue.
