    At my store, buying the Kotex is causing a Catalina to print for free Always pads. (Up to 3.50.) I also got a $4.50 off any Cover Girl Blast product as well.

    Oops! I forgot to change the title after linking up my CVS scenarios a few minutes ago. This one links to my Walgreens transactions, I promise! Thanks for the linkup! 🙂

    I have a question. Is there somewhere I can find information about using RR at Walgreen’s. There are times when I go to use my RR’s and the computer will not take them if I’m getting other items that end up being free with coupons. How do I figure this out? It’s confusing.

    Thanks,
    Georgene

    I’m linking up really late, but I really didn’t do much other than buy the candy for the RR.
