Rolling With Walgreens' Punches


Well it's official. Walgreens will no longer have their Easy Saver Rebate program, not even the coupons that come in the booklet. I hope you got to take advantage of it while it lasted. I know I received many great free items this way and will be sad to see it go. I especially liked having the money put on my Walgreens' gift card so I wasn't spending money directly out of pocket when shopping there.

So our new key word when discussing Walgreens will be "Rolling". This is a common term in the couponing world. It means using the one deal to purchase the same deal or another deal and to do that over and over again. Walgreens will be focusing more on their Register Rewards (RR) program which I explained in my post here. When you roll RRs you use RRs that you have earned to buy another RR product to earn back RRs that you just used to purchase that item. Basically, you want to receive RRs every time you use RRs to pay for an item therefore spending as little money out of pocket.

Here are the RR deals for this week thanks to Common Sense With Money. To see a complete list of Walgreens deals visit Common Sense With Money here. She also has a summary of what's to come with the loss of Easy Saver including a possible new free after rebate program.
