Walgreens $5 Scenario - Week of 6/12/11

The most cost effective way to shop at Walgreens is to roll Register Rewards - spend Register Rewards on products that trigger more.  I suggest checking out at the Cosmetic Counter.  Multiple transaction always go smoother at a less busy register.

If you're following  my $5 Scenarios, you have a $4 Garnier Register Reward to start this week's shopping.
