Tricks to remember at Walgreens...
1. As a new couponer I made two mistakes tonight by purchasing the wrong items. I paid full price for these items and missed out on RR. You'll be happy to know I got back in my car and returned the items, then purchased them correctly. My advice to you is to shop by section. Purchase a section of items and then take them to your car and come in again for your next purchase.
2. Plan out how many purchases you will need to have in order to get all of your RR.
3. Redeeming your RR is a bit tricky. I have discovered that they will not allow you to stack or layer RR with a MF coupon. The computer does not allow it. You may have to throw in a pack of gum or a sale item without a MF coupon in order to redeem your RR. Remember you may only have as many RR tickets as you have items and your balance due cannot exceed the amount your pay in RR.
Good luck out there. It is definitely a game.
I was able to hep a woman in the store purchase John Frieda hair products for super cheep. She didn't want to take the coupons. I finally convinced her and she got a great deal! Share the love, people.
Great source for Walgreens coupon regulations - http://springsbargains.com/. This woman has way more time than I do. She did a much better job of explaining what you need to know.

Free Items at Walgreens, Canon City.
My latest shopping experiment produced my first free items. Let me tell you what happened. If you have questions about couponing, especially couponing in Canon City, you are welcome to email me with your questions.
The previous shopping at Walgreens yielded $9 in Register Rewards after purchasing $27 worth of items for $15. With the $9 RR I purchased 2 bottles of Soft Soap 16fl oz. bottles on sale at 2/7. I received $5 RR rewards from the $7 purchase and picked up two boxes of Always pads on sale for 2.19. I had a coupon for .50 off bringing the price to 1.83. I purchased the items using RR dollars. The items were free. Awesome! I currently have $12 RR from Walgreens and plan to turn that around into more couponing adventures. Good luck out there. P.S.- Mr. Taylor you're a pretty good Walgreen's manager. You did a great job the other night.
The plan is to see how much of a deal I can really get from utilizing CouponMom, grocery cards and RR. I'm also using a website called http://www.couponsthingsbydede.com/default.asp. For a super cheap and tiny price (under $2 for everything) I can get any insert from the paper that I missed. This might sound silly, but when you are a serious couponer, it can be invaluable. The thing that gets me is people actually buy these coupon and circulars. I'm one of them. Weird. This week the Denver Post did not have the advertised PandG circular. I will be able to get it from this website for super cheap.
