Walgreens Weekly Ad Sneak Peek

Are you signed up to receive the Walgreens Weekly Ad Sneak Peek by email on Fridays?  Sometimes it isn't available until Saturday, but that's still early!  I love seeing this email in my inbox on Friday mornings.  It's a great tool if you want to get a jump start on your shopping list before Sunday morning.

I don't want to spend too much time on Walgreens shopping.  Wags is a national chain and the sales here are pretty right on with those reported on the numerous coupon websites/blogs.  But, there were a couple things that caught my attention that will probably impact your shopping in Hopkins County next week.

First, as you can see from the screen print on the left, Nestle Crunch is on sale for the yummy price of 39-cents starting Sunday 6/12.  There is a 35-cent printable on coupons.com that you probably have in your coupon caddy.  Just remember if you use the coupon toward that candy bar, the candy bar no longer qualifies as a cheap "filler".  A candy bar for 39-cents is probably going to be the "filler" item of choice next week making those candy bars difficult to come by.  I envision a scene strait out of Wonka where couponers rush to the candy isle to snag these delicious, cheap treats.  Plus, my favorite filler, the individual Laffy Taffy, has disappeared from the checkout at my favorite Walgreens!  The 35-cent off coupon will double if you use it at Market Place, Kroger, or Sureway.  I love double-able coupons!

Dial Bodywash is the second thing I spotted in the ad.  It's going to be on sale for $2.99.  And, yes, there is an upcoming $2 coupon without a size restriction (reportedly).  I personally like the adage:  seeing is believing.  You can certainly try finding the trial size bottle at Walmart, score a buck in overage, and leave the store with the tiny bottle of bodywash.  Or you can use the coupon at Walgreens next week and get a FULL size bodywash for a buck.  If you are having stockpile envy, spending $1 for a bodywash is a great way to increase your Health & Beauty stockpile.  If we do indeed get the $2 off coupon locally, I'll be using it at Walgreens.  ALSO, if the supply is obliterated before you get to the store, ask very nicely for a rain check.

Here's the address for the weekly ad sneak peek.  I am unsure if it will take you to the ad.  You may have to sign up and then receive the link directly from your email!  http://walgreens.shoplocal.com/walgreenssneakpeek/Default.aspx?action=browsepageflash&storeid=2568510&rapid=1201139&pagenumber=1&prvid=Walgreens-110612c&promotioncode=Walgreens-110612c

Thanks again, and happy couponing!
