Welcome to the Walgreens $5 Challenge! Every Saturday night I will post my best scenario on how you can get great products at Walgreens for under five bucks.
Want to participate? All you need is a Balance Rewards Card, a Walgreens ad, a printer, and coupons to get started. Use the new Ibotta app to save even more!
Here’s how this works:
Your budget: Start with $5 out-of-pocket cash.
Your mission: To grow that $5 into even more Register Rewards (RR) to use in upcoming weeks.
If this is your first time here, start by reading the rules here.
Here is my scenario for this week’s Challenge. Feel free to leave the link to your scenario in the Linky below, or if you don’t have a blog, share your scenario in the comments!
