Lets go over the basics
1. Balance Rewards - 1,000 pts = $1.00 & 2,000pts = $2.00
2. Register Rewards - Also known as RR. These will print after you pay and you can use them on your next transaction.
3. You cannot use Points to get points. So if you are purchasing items that will give you points you cannot use points to pay for that transaction.
4. You cannot use RR to pay for same brand items that will give you RR's. So if you got a Register Reward from Crest you cannot use that Register Reward on Crest items and expect to receive another RR from Crest.
5. You must have more purchase items than coupons & RR. If you have more coupons & RR than you will need to grab a filler item. A good Filler is usually candy or postcards!
Now that we covered the basics, Click Read More to see my Walgreen's shopping strategy and the coupons that match up to items that will either give you Points or Register Rewards!
Your first transaction is the one that will usually cost you money. After that all of your other transactions should be really cheap or FREE! Your first transaction should be items that will give you points. Then you use those points to pay for items that will give you Register Rewards. Then you use Register Rewards to pay for items that will give you points....and the cycle continues. :) You can roll Points and Register Rewards to the following week!
If you already have points - Your first transaction every week should be items that will give you RR. You will use your points to pay for those items. After you get RR's you will use them to buy items that will give you points. You always want to end the week with Points!
