Walgreens Balance Rewards Deals

Notes on Balance Rewards

If you use Balance Rewards to pay for an item that generates more Balance Rewards to your Walgreens loyalty card, the second set of Balance Rewards will not accrue. Paying with points prevents more points from being loaded. Save your points and spend them on non-Balance Rewards items.

Walgreens Register Rewards Deals

Notes on Register Rewards

You will only receive one Register Reward per offer per transaction. Example: A name-brand box of cereal generates a $1 Register Reward. Buying three identical boxes will not generate three $1 rewards.

You cannot use Register Rewards to pay for items made by the same manufacturer. This will prevent the next set of Register Rewards from printing. Example: I have a $1 Register Reward that I received buying Colgate. If I use it to buy more Colgate, the register will not generate another reward, as the first Colgate reward prevents it from printing. Now, if I used a Crest Reward to buy Colgate, the Colgate Reward would print. I could then use that to buy Crest, and so on.

You can receive multiple Register Rewards in the same transaction, provided they are separate offers. I can buy a box of cereal that generates a Register Reward, a tube of toothpaste that generates a Register Reward, and a bottle of shampoo that generates a Register Reward -- all in the same transaction -- as long as they are different offers in the same ad.

.50 Colgate toothpaste or mouthwash

Colgate 360 toothbrushes, 4oz. Enamel Health toothpaste, and 16.9oz. Total Enamel Health or Advanced mouthwash are all 2-for-$7. Buy two and get $4 in Register Rewards. For mouthwash, use this $1 printable. For toothpaste, use this $1 printable. With two coupons, pay $5 and get $4 back. That's $1 for two, or .50 each!

$1.49 Softsoap body wash and hand soap

Softsoap 15-18oz. body wash and 8-10oz. hand soap (the "fancy" rectangular pumps that look like something from Bath & Body Works) are $2.99 each. Buy one and get $1.50 in Register Rewards. That's $1.49!

$1.75 Ziploc bags and containers

Ziploc 14-24ct. freezer and storage bags, 90ct. sandwich bags, and 3ct. containers are 2-for-$5.50. Buy two and get $1 in Register Rewards. Use the $1-off-2 from the 8/2 SS, a $1-off-2 bags printable or a $1-off-2 containers printable. Pay $4.50 and get $1 back, making these $3.50 for two or $1.75 each.

$2.99 Poise Impressa sizing kit

Poise Impressa bladder supports 6ct. sizing kit is $6.99. Buy it and get $4 back in Register Rewards. Poise's site has a printable coupon too, though it doesn't say the value. With no coupons, this will be $2.99 after the deal. Any coupon you get will make the deal even better.

$3 Oral B Pulsar toothbrush, Crest mouthwash

Oral-B Pulsar toothbrushes, 32oz. Crest 3D White rinse, and 3-4.1oz. toothpaste are all 2-for-$10. Buy two and get $2 in Register Rewards. The ad says to use a $2-off-2 printable (will likely be online after 8/23.) Pay $8 and get $2 back. That's $6 for two, or $3 each. (Not a good deal for toothpaste, in my opinion, but the toothbrush & mouthwash are okay deals.)

$7.49 Always Discreet

Always Discreet 27-66ct. pads and 15-19ct. underwear are $11.99. Buy two and get 5000 Balance Rewards points ($5.) The ad says to use two $2 printables (will likely be online after 8/23.) With two printables, pay $19.98 and get 5000 points ($5.) That's $14.98 for two, or $7.49 each.

  The IVC book is the Instant Value Coupon book — a new one comes out each month. They’re found on racks by the doors at each store :)

I read the article in the paper all the time. This is the first time I have tried to followup. I appreciate all the good advice. My problem is time. I’d like to know if there is a way to search this site for a particular product. Also, do I have to sign up to be able to print the coupons?
Thank you.

  You can use the site search to look for just about anything on the site. :) You don’t have to register to print coupons. It may be helpful to start in the “Deals of the Week” tab and choose one store to focus on that’s in your area and has deals/products on sale that you’re interested in. I blog multiple stores, both in my area (Chicago/midwest) and nationally.
