*W card is the prescription drug card that you can purchase at the pharmacy or online. I can enter my receipts online after 48 hours and earn 10% on all Walgreens brand products. The cost is $20 a year, but I just signed up a month ago and have over $70 from all the GREAT deals I have gotten the past two years at Walgreens(yes, I actually keep my receipts THAT long!)

Do you know if the skintimate RR dollars is a one time deal or will it be rewarded after each multiple skintimate purchase?

You will get a RR each time you purchase a qualifying skintimate, limit 1 per transaction.

Can you give me some more details about the W card? I'm not sure I understand it, but it sounds like a great deal!

My store did not print subsequent softsoap 3.99 coupons. I even used fillers just in case. The manager told me it was because the computer recognizes the softsoap coupon is used and won't print another one b/c there is a one limit per offer. I'm wondering why your store printed subsequent ones. Do you have any advice?

My store did the same thing.

Same thing happened to me at Walgreens on Hwy 6/Williams Trace & at Hwy 6 in Missouri City. I paid for one full price to receive a coupon, used the coupon and didn't get another one. Then I had $3RR for the Skintimate deal and used it with a $1/1 coupon and bought another Soft soap, which then resulted in another free soft soap coupon. I used that one and then nothing else printed out again. Still learning the tricks of the trade! Thanks for all your suggestions!

I am sorry for all the trouble everyone is having on this promo. Walgreens calls this practice "looping" and typically does not allow for the catalinas to print in this manner. Sometimes though, there is a programming glitch and it works. These "glitches" usually get resolved early in the week and apparantly I beat the clock by about an hour.

Frugal: you can read more about the W card here: https://webapp.walgreens.com/MYWCARDWeb/servlet/walgreens.wcard.proxy.WCardInternetProxy/WCardInternetRH?ticket=
If you would like more information about putting your receipts on the card and using the card, feel free to email me.

Thanks for the link, ZM! Also, in case anyone wants to sign up for the W card, evidently it's $20, but until 4/3, there's an online promotion code (ACHOO) for $5 off of $20, so I was able to sign up for just $15. I still haven't figured out how to enter receipts, but I'll try messing with it again later when I have some free time.

is the mentos still 2/2?

Anon: Mentos should be on sale all month for 2/$2. It is on megasaver sale(month long wags sales)
