Welcome to Walgreens Wednesday! Each Wednesday, I will post a new Walgreens scenario. In order to help those just learning Walgreens’ coupon policy, I try to keep these scenarios very simple. The goal is to spend as little out of pocket as possible while adding to (or building) our stockpiles. To do this, we’ll take advantage of Walgreen’s Register Reward program.
