★ How to Coupon at Walgreens (The Ultimate Guide)

[@marytudtud7866]

Walgreens is like that complicated relationship where you often wonder if it is worth it. Then one day you accidentally stumble across CVS and see how easy life can be. Next thing you know you stop calling walgreens and CVS becomes bae....lol

[@MsSwitchblade13]

Lmao!! I love this analogy

[@aprilfelton6001]

lol!

[@makeupfavs8193]

Mary Tudtud lol. This is funny and so true.

[@homemakingwisdom]

I wish we had a CVS. Nope just Walgreens.

[@alyslesafranks261]

So true....

[@jamiegarcia6287]

This is the best couponing guide for Walgreens ever!

[@ErnieV76]

This is the best Walgreens explanation. Thank you so much! Just staring out. 😊

[@heathergallegos704]

thank you as a walgreens employee.. you are the most accurate... so thank you

[@tessabristol9529]

Yes Walgreen's are very difficult especially the cashiers you can only used 1 (one) coupon per transaction. So I don't like shopping their. So for this year I will do less their. CVS top all of them in my opinion.

[@SheketaMarquez]

Cool!!! I didn't know you could stack Walgreens coupons. Nor did I know that the monthly coupon book was in the mobile app! Thanks so much for creating this video..... I was giving up on Walgreens but will now try again.

[@fsfdeals]

Sheketa Marquez Awww... You're welcome. Thank you for letting me know what you learned. That makes me so happy! :)

[@melissacortez3662]

I used to love couponing there. Girl, I can't do it anymore, I'm old and ain't nobody got time for dat! LOL

[@hobag1993]

I found this video more helpful than the other one- it will remain nameless- that I watched. I didn't understand the filler items until you "visually" explained it. Will continue to check out your videos. Thank you so much!

[@fsfdeals]

+cbjyajmommy - Awww.. that makes me so happy to hear. :) Glad it was helpful

[@EntirelyKristen]

Great video! I always find Walgreens the most complicated to explain but you did such a good job!

[@fsfdeals]

ComeSaveAway Thank you!! :)

[@Jess_Bishop]

How do I pay with my points? Do I only have to tell the cashier that I want to pay with my points?

[@nicolebarreto2943]

Jessica Bishop if you don’t have the app you can ask the cashier to see if you have points and you can tell them how many points you want to use. Some cashiers are nice and will let you know.

[@sunnywv641]

Finally someone I can understand lol. Thanks so much! Walgreens just opened in my area and I was trying to figure it out. This was a great help.

[@marshfluff4915]

your the first person I seen out of all my videos I watched to go into full description. thank you

[@fsfdeals]

+Marsh Fluff You are so welcome!! :)

[@Jess_Bishop]

I'm SOOOO happy on seeing this video. I've always struggled with couponing at Walgreens... that's so amazing that you did that, so easy to understand and nice to watch!!

[@jennifermendoza08]

great video thanks for sharing I just started couponing some moths ago and I started at Walgreens I go there frequently

[@homemakingwisdom]

Thanks, this was very helpful. Today I earned 20,000 in points and got back $5 in register rewards. It looks like I'm going back to spend that $5 on my favorite coffee because its on sale this week and got a cpupon for it. I know this video is old but still good info.

[@fsfdeals]

@Jessica Moura -Yes. Tell them you want to pay with points

[@bellasolis4536]

That was extremely helpful. Thank you so much ! I just started last week and made a few mistakes but I learned from them and this video is a huge help for next time. That whole filler item I had no idea what the heck that was and you explained it so very well.

[@bags_books_and_bowwows]

Thanks for this video! I'm new to all this and using Walgreens feels like shopping on another planet at first. I appreciate having the basics laid out all on their own.

[@arielarrietta7297]

I love your videos like this. Really helps learning everything about each store since I am a newbie at couponing.

[@kittenpawsbb]

Wow Walgreens is super complicated. I think this is why I have been running into so many issues. Even the employees up to manager, are confused when I go into to shop. But on the good side they actually recognize me and are very patience trying to figure things out. I will say learning that the RR is considered as a manufacture coupon, clears up one of the issues I've been having. Can you please go over the importance, of the order in which the coupons should be scan? If there even is an order of importance? Another wonderful informative video. Thank you!

[@fsfdeals]

kittenpawsbb At walgreens, do Manfacturers coupon first and then Walgreens coupons. :) Sometimes, there are MM situations where it'll only work if you use coupons in this order. :)

[@namename9689]

KIDS GET IN THE CAR WE ARE GOING COUPONING AT CVS

[@killyramirez]

do you have a cvs video out. i love the way you explain its easy to understand and you make it fun

[@sharrieniya09]

This video just helped me ALOT!! I've been couponing at Walgreens but my transactions never go according to plan.. Now I know why I could only use $5 in points to pay, when I had $8.. Or why my RR didn't print.. GREAT VIDEO!! Thank you!

[@michellezamora9776]

I'm new to Walgreen's but I used points and got points back if you buy 2 and get points you can use points but if it's spend 10 get 5 points you can't use points

[@newyearsmom1]

Michelle Pearsall All the videos I have seen indicate you can pay with points if it is a BUY scenario (Buy 2 of ... and get 10,000 points). You can't earn points if it is a SPEND scenario (Spend $10 on ... and earn 10,000 points). Hopefully, I worded this correctly. I find Walgreens confusing.

[@virtuouslysetapart]

Thanks! I am just starting couponing, and I am excited to begin. I am going to start with Walgreens, and Kroger grocery store as they are where I shop already. The tips you gave were very good, and it cleared it up for me!

[@msd31674]

I love how you break down your videos. well done

[@meggivnish-brezina5941]

I shop at Walgreens for so many things from prescriptions to coffee to make up, to cards. The change you made in the balance reward points really almost made me decide to stop being such a loyal Walgreens custom, I stiil shop at Walgreens but, if I have a choice of getting something like a greeting card or a drink or some groceries I think twice and sometimes chose to purchase somewhere else. Why did you do this? I used to feel like a special customer but I don't feel that way anymore. Mary E Brezina

[@sc86lopez]

So many times I wondered what went wrong! Thanks this clears a lot of things up. I didn't know you had to use separate transactions for rr on the same item or that you couldn't use balance rewards if you want to earn balance rewards.

[@fsfdeals]

Sandra Lopez Awww.. Yes! Glad to help. :)

[@heathergallegos704]

the balance reward system is not just points. it also allows you to get the sales prices that are in the ad

[@anitawillis5251]

Just to add there are certain items that won't go toward the spend $20 get 5000 points, such as dairy, tobacco, wine, newspapers, postage stamps and the like. Definitely not prepaid cards.

[@jennifersclubhouse6516]

Your so precise in all of your videos ...I think I will try to use the coupon now :)

[@lenawong554]

So, I've only coupon at CVS & Target...those are the simplest and easiest for me. Your video is very easy to understand, thank you! Question: being that RR are not linked to a name or number, that means that it will print for anyone who buys that promotion...does that mean that I can give the RR away or use one that has been tossed away or one that I didn't earn? I would assume that the answer is yes.?

[@fsfdeals]

Lena Wong The answer is Yes! The RR isn't linked to your account like at CVS. So its transferable beween people. And yes, CVS and Target are the best stores to start couponing in. :)

[@alwayssearching3236]

Thank you so much. Can you do a new one with the new Walgreens rewards? I think it’s better than before

[@ilhanmohamed9052]

love this video. wags was my first store to coupon. i taught i knew all about couponing at wags but learned few new things. well explained. please make one for cvs if u can.they just open a store here and am still not there couponing at cvs.

[@fsfdeals]

Ilhan Mohamed I will definitely do that. :) I love CVS!

[@ilhanmohamed9052]

thanks

[@cmw7306]

You explained it perfectly, but Walgreens is still confusing. With Walgreens buying Rite Aid, i hope they don't implement Walgreens system to Rite Aid. My question is I got 1.50 RR rewards from the Glade deal, i know i can't use it on the same glade deal. What if i wanted to use it on another deal that will earn me lets say 4 RRewards can I do that?

[@JazEli]

yes, you can do that and get the 4 RR, as long it's not the glade deal. :)

[@cmw7306]

+Jaz Eli (Jazzy) Thank you

[@jingli9358]

This is very helpful! Thank you so much!!

[@erismarodriguez2031]

Hi is there possible way where you make a video going to the store and do couponing so we can have an idea of how we’re actually doing it please

[@clairenichols2858]

Oh My Gosh this was so freaking helpful!!!!!!! I am a beginner couponer and I have been learning from videos online. This answered all my questions about walgreens so far. Thank you so much.

[@preciouscreations6206]

I loved the way you explain everything. Example is the best thing you could have done that for me.

[@marjbecker6515]

Thank you, this was helpful. I'm trying to learn how to coupon. One question I have is, is the walgreens mobile coupons considered a manufactured coupon? If so then what's a store coupon?

[@joabrams8311]

Tina,I have 2 questions.Can you use paper coupons online,If so how do you apply then at check out.And can you clame rain checks online,again if so how?

[@feliciaphelps7021]

CVS!!!! ALL THE WAY....! When Walgreens get their act together...I'll shop there. Until then CVS all the way...couponning should never be hard or stressful....thanks for the video.

[@starbrite8740]

Walgreens is the best don't know we're ur from but in saint cloud Florida there like family always ready to help you

[@mariavillarreal2083]

Wow! I am so excited that I found your video. because I've been stressing. I'm trying to make this deal work for me at Walgreens and my question has been answered with your video and it looks like my transaction will be an success because of your video 😁😀

[@juvylee87]

can you pay with points and still get an RR?

[@amandaswanson3929]

Yes

[@daissymartinez5683]

I have a question I just started couponing at Walgreens can I use a 1.29off, 4off and spend 20 or more get 5,000 points in the same transaction ?

[@addiemcmurray6278]

Awesome I just started there and I am not sure why im not getting points. It did not seem like i got what i should have in points when i went for the first time to coupon last night?? Any suggestions

[@armyqt]

I don't see a way to access the IVC through my app? Is that option still available? Thanks.

[@jenniferbarrett5404]

I think I'm going to give walgreens a try one day soon....I think I'm understanding all the little rules now

[@rudyiglesias8969]

Wow! Best explanation thus far from videos I reviewed on Walgreen's. I am submitting this comment on 12/04/19 but the video is dated over 4 years ago. Will you be doing an updated 2019 version?

[@Bryan-lu4du]

Someone should write an app where you can put in what you have coupon wise (both Walgreens and manufacturer), tell it how many points you have, and what the promotion is and have them app tell you exactly what you need to do along with variations of how many you can buy.

[@tinatwardoski1391]

can you use a manufacturing coupon with a digital or Walgreen coupon

[@PrInCeSsAvIaNeY]

Are register rewards "get $5 off $25"? I got something like that and I'm not sure if I can use that and also pay with points after I give them that. Please help

[@Layniebug]

You did an awesome job on explaining how to coupon @ Walgreens. I started couponing there as well... so I have a soft spot for it as well.

[@fsfdeals]

Schnauzer2007 awww.. Thank you!! :) That means a lot to me

[@graciousishe3999]

i cant' get any walgreens to accept more the 1 of same mfc in same transaction, so I don't shop there. Tried using 1 for conditioner and 1 for shampoo and they refuse. Coupon Police at Walgreens not worth trouble. CVS RULES!!!

[@ladyofarril3662]

I agrre something happed to me

[@ladyofarril3662]

They said i can use only one cuopon and the special said buy two and they accepted only one coupon on the other stores they accepted 4 coupns but here dont

[@asimaamir01]

could you use one manufacturer coupon and one Walgreen coupon per item? If so isn't it like buying one item n using 2 coupons which u said we can't do.... so confusing

[@mommymemoment2828]

how do the 20x points work? if an item has earn 5000 points plus 20x points does it apply in the same transaction?

[@marym6389]

Great video...thank you so much!

[@fsfdeals]

Marnie Mac You're welcome Marnie! :)

[@shayboo5850]

If I’m earning points while at check out can I use those points to pay as well? Or do I have to wait until I make another transaction that day or another day?

[@chelsea196]

loved this video! wish you made more recent ones. you made it make sense! And I Dont have actual CVS and i dont ahop at target since they like to be difficult with coupons around here...

[@letyc208]

So how do u know if it's a walgreens coupon or a manufacturer coupon?

[@MargaritaMartinez-wm3rc]

Amazing Pharmacy! I Love Walgreen!

[@MargaritaMartinez-wm3rc]

Wonderful coupon!

[@ellemac7090]

Awesome Video! By far the best break down of exactly how to coupons at Wags. Thank you!

[@lorrainejkoschock6294]

I would never even consider spending the time or confusion to figure out their crazy system. They set it up that way so that people will think they are getting something when in truth unless you know all the twists and turns involved. Life is too short for this kind of craziness. My head is spinning from this. Take a class and learn something worthwhile.

[@sayhoatson3208]

Great take away here!....So, I CAN use the Walgreens coupon book and my manufactures coupon from say, the Sunday paper on the same item?....Does Walgreens double coupons? -Thanks.

[@smileytavira7088]

When a coupon says not valid with any other offer what does it mean?? That you can't use a same product with different coupons??? Please help

[@ineztamez666]

Very knowledgeable, Thanks helps since I just started and didn't understand

[@reidtucker2359]

I got really confused..I tried to keep up. I went today and tried to pay with an RR. But it didn’t take all my coupons off. I only know that because when I first did it I didn’t know you had to scan the rr before coupons. Anyways I didn’t know what would be cheaper..so I just went with keeping my rr for another time. 😬

[@DoubleQz]

What about digital coupons? They don't allow it to cover multiple items like the Walgreens book and it won't credit if you have coupons like 7 off two razors and a 3 off 1 razor. You will have to have paper coupons as well.

[@cynthiagarcia5012]

DoubleQz did you find out why? That's happening to me right know 😅

[@haleydent1908]

I see so many videos on ppl earning overage? Is it just Walgreens that doesn’t so it anymore or is it a law for all stores?

[@rhondacunningham8297]

What does it mean you can use 4 identical coupons For the same product in the same day

[@zulmaguinto4175]

Thank you so much I always been confused about the rr and the points

[@fsfdeals]

Zulma Guinto You're so welcome Zulma! Happy to help. :)

[@troyyarbrough]

Enjoyed the video. Thumbs-up. However, I don't think I will be fooling with Walgreens when CVS plenti-points is so much easier to use.

[@dianalp5170]

So if I buy two different items and use a mfr coupon and a walgreens coupon for each item and then use a RR, how many filler items would I need?

[@amandaswanson3929]

One filler, because the Walgreens coupon is not a manufacturer coupon.

[@kimellis3964]

Question: I bought $30.00 gold bond for 10,000 points am I supossed to get RR on that transactiin. I'm a newby. I got RR on troll I & mentos. U mentioned to call Catalina. Clerk said the Dr's print out preoutically is that true since I bought points on good bond. Thanks for your time in making these videos.

[@jenniferbarrett5404]

there just seems to be too many rules, it just seems so complicated. why would anyone want to shop at Walgreens? it sound like you can't roll rewards, you'd have to be paying oop everytime you shop there.

[@ellenguerrero4122]

Jennifer Barrett not complicated at all I played 12 dollars for 40 dollars worth of stuff and im a begginner

[@rflower929]

Hi, I came across your video. I want to start couponing at Walgreens. Is your video up to date to coupon at the store? If so how do I start? Thank You in advance 😊

[@mmcdaniel6652]

thanks so much!! you are awesome! I am a newbie to coupons and you videos are the best!

[@fsfdeals]

+marie mcdaniel Aww.. Thank you Marie!

[@kaitlynelizabethsecond1524]

love this!

[@vianneycano1803]

Hi!!! How many coupons I need for buy one and get 1 free?

[@Happyg9238]

actually we were never allowed too write down the coupon the policy was brought back up because people were abusing the system so we had to reemplent it. ;)

[@blssdmmm1]

Can you still use RR at other stores,since they are considered man. coupons? I used to coupon religiously,but have been out of the loop for over a year so I am getting back into it now,but see that alot has changed. I used to be able to use RR at other stores(like BiLo,etc) but am not sure if it is still allowed. TIA

[@fsfdeals]

Tanya Wilson Hi Tanya, thats a good question. This is a gray area. And it will really depend on cashiers at the other stores. I can't remember the verbiage on the RR now. But can you check it next time you have one? See the verbiage to see if it says "Can only redeem at Walgreens". Look for the word "ONLY".

[@clindsay53]

Do you get the same coupon rewards if you shop online?

[@sebastianespinoza4513]

very helpful info thank you😊😊

[@ladyofarril3662]

I don't like walgreems and also in my area they give trouble with the coupons they said i have to use only one coupon

[@RobertKirtlandJAGBAR]

Excellent video with great tips! Thanks.

[@fsfdeals]

Robert Kirtland Thank you Robert!! :)

[@lissserrano8953]

I have a quick question. Would you happen to know if we can coupon online ? Like at "target.com" ? Sometimes I just do not have time to get to the store or I go and they have zero of what I want. Has anybody ever tried using a manufacturer coupon online ?

[@fsfdeals]

Liss Serrano Hi Liss, you can't use printed manufacturer coupon online. BUT, there are promotional codes for online purchases. I post about them on the blog when there's a good deal. There are deals online too. Many amazon deals have "Clipped Coupons", they are digital and can be clipped on the page.

[@donnamcgowan7691]

When they first started couponing they were ripping everybody off I live in Rhode Island and I was so upset and frustrated I told like two or three managers off and I refuse to shop at Walgreens until they got their act straightened out

[@jessicatorres6952]

Thank you!! This video was so helpful!

[@justcary]

so if something is on sale for $.49 and I have a coupon for $.55/1 I cant use it, is that what you are saying?

[@NewlyIntroduced]

Yes, that's it. 😊

[@margohay]

Something that always causes problems is the order of the coupons I hope you touch on that soon

[@fsfdeals]

Margo Hay Manufacturer coupons first, and then Walgreens coupon. I didn't cover this because the reasons behind it will make it too complicated for beginners. :)

[@Sandra___P]

Great video. It helped alot. I do still need your help. What about the coupns walgreens mails to you? For instance. I want to buy 2 packs neutrogena makeup wipes. I have a manu coupon for 2.00 off 2 items. I also have a walgreens mailed coupon for 3k points when I buy 2 neutrogena makeup wipes. Also have a mailed wag coupon for earn 2k points when you spent 10.00. Can I use all 3 coupons when I buy 2 wipes and a candy bar? I need chocolate. Please help. I can't find info anywhere about these stacking rules.

[@fsfdeals]

429pa At Walgreens, according to their coupon policy, you can use multiple Walgreens coupons on the same item. So technically you can. But this is an unusual case, since usually multiple walgreens coupons refers to combining monthly coupon booklet with an in-ad coupon, so I won't know this case for certain. You can test and try.

[@chinelokinrin8706]

Thank you

[@mayleramos9123]

Can you pay with points when earning a rr?

[@shellymartinez2313]

Do the expired RR have grace period (1,2,3?days)

[@Stone-vs9gw]

No

[@allie3677]

Wait how do you know which item has an RR

[@bags_books_and_bowwows]

Period Help --- the Walgreens RR's are listed in the weekly ad.

[@Happyg9238]

your explaination of the points needs clarification. i work for the company. you can use 1 , 2 , 3 ,4 , or 5 dollars in a transaction yes its a pre dollar amount. its not just a 1 dollar 5 dollar 10 dollar. etc.

[@adamaris13]

Will you making a video for this week's deals?

[@fsfdeals]

adamaris13 Hey! I took a break this week from the deals video to spend with my family. Sorry. Deal video will resume next week. But all the deals are listed on FreeStuffFinder.com (Click on "Store Deals" and select the store you want to see).

[@SELEJUAREZ]

nice video! loved your explanation on how to coupon at wags! I also started at wags, it was hard to understand some things but now i get a hang of some things- Im not an expert but i can get some good deals- tfs :)

[@fsfdeals]

SELE JUAREZ :)

[@sandyray1689]

Very great video!!! Thank you

[@ZumbaJennyB]

I recently got $8 in RR for buying $15 in specific Eucerin products. Once the total rang up to $15.45, I asked the cashier if I would still get my RR if I paid with Points. He didn't know. I also asked if I used a $1.50/1 q before paying (which would bring the final total to under $15) if I would still get the RR, but he didn't know that either. His face turned so red, and I felt so bad for him being embarrassed that I told him not to worry about it and just paid the full $15.45. Do you know the answers to my questions?

[@fsfdeals]

Jenny B Awwwww.. Ok. Here are the answers to your questions: 1. Promos where you have to reach a threshold like $15, that number is always after Walgreens coupons and Before manufacturers coupons. So even if you used $1.50/1 and brought that down to under $15, as long as that $1.50 coupon is a manufacturers coupon it's ok to use. 2. For promos with RR, if you pay with points it'll be perfect! I covered this in the video. :) Let me know if you have any other questions

[@ZumbaJennyB]

Ok! So I could have used the coupon because it was a manufacturers. Oh well, a $1.50 lesson! Thanks so much for replying!

[@fsfdeals]

Jenny B Yes! You could. I wonder if you can go back with your receipt and get the coupons adjusted. Since it was the cashier who didn't know. :) or if the sale is still happening. Return what you got and buy it again with your coupons.
