March Free After Rebate Items

Remember, Walgreens does not give overage so you will need enough in your order to cover it.
You also can't roll register rewards from one deal into the same deal. The RRs need to be from different companies to roll them back and forth. Otherwise, if you use a RR from the same deal to pay for it, a new RR will not print.

You also need to have as many items as you have coupons. So if you have more items than coupons, use a cheap filler item. Walgreens in-ad coupons and IVC coupons are just store discounts so don't count them in your coupon total. However, RR do count as coupons.

I've actually been getting whatever Huggies diapers I need and the $5 coupon works on all of them. Also I have noticed that when paying, if you have them scan the RR first before your other coupons it will work and you won't need a filler item.

Christina, thanks for the reminder about handing over your RRs first! The register does not like to take them after you have given them your manufacturer coupons. They don't want you saving too much money. Ha ha.

If the first part of your coupon bar code matches the first part of the item's bar code the coupon should always work. The last part of the bar code just tells what "flavor" you are buying.
