*Update*

I went yesterday to get my freebies and I had so much trouble! My regular cashier wasn’t there and it was really frustrating! First the Kraft dressing wasn’t ringing up 2/$4 so I had to pull it up on  the Walgreens app and show it to them and explain to them what Bonus Buys were. Bonus Buys are unadvertised weekly deals found in their online ad. You can also find them on the app under Weekly Ad. For some reason it only took two of my Mac n Cheese coupons and after being there for what seemed like an hour, I took my two coupons back. The Register Reward printed with no problems. It also only let me use three of the FREE Poligrip coupons and the Help! I have a blister was scanning at $3.99 and wasn’t printing out a Register Reward :/ On the bright side, the Poligrip automatically takes off the whole $2.60 allowed, so if you’re going to get it be sure to add something else. 

How was your trip? Did you have any issues?

Happy Shopping!

Black Friday deals begin on Thursday! I will be posting the match ups tomorrow! These deals are week long, so you can combine both deals and create your own scenario. (I know if I wait until Thursday to buy the stuff from this weeks ad, all the good stuff will be gone!)
