Understand Earning and Using Register Rewards and Walgreens Cash

You can check the weekly ad, app, and in-store deals to see what items are available for promotions.

Register Rewards

What are Register Rewards? Register Rewards are physical coupons printed from the Catalina machine at the register. These rewards can be used on almost anything in the store, though certain exclusions apply. Always check the expiration date as they do have a limited time to be used. Importantly, Register Rewards must be earned and used in-store.

Key Rules for Register Rewards:

1. One Reward Per Deal Per Transaction: You can only earn one Register Reward per deal in each transaction. To earn more, you’ll need to separate your transactions.
2. Types of Register Rewards: There are two kinds:
   • Store Register Rewards: These require you to spend extra to meet a spend threshold.
   • Manufacturer Register Rewards: These do not impact spend deal thresholds.
3. Using Register Rewards on Other Deals:
   • You can use Register Rewards on other Register Reward promotions, but you won’t earn another reward for the same deal.
   • Spend Thresholds and Store Register Rewards: If you have a $4 Store Register Reward and the deal requires you to spend $20, you’ll need to spend $24 to meet the threshold.
   • Manufacturer Register Rewards don’t affect spend thresholds, so you can use them without adjusting your spending.
4. Combining with Walgreens Cash Deals:
   • Manufacturer Register Rewards have no effect on earning Walgreens Cash.
   • Store Register Rewards will require you to add their value to the spend threshold. For example, if a deal requires you to spend $20 and you use a $4 Store Register Reward, your total must be $24.

Key Rules for Walgreens Cash:

1. Earning Walgreens Cash:
   • There are no limits on earning Walgreens Cash. For example, if the promotion is “Buy 2 Softsoap body washes, Receive $3 Walgreens Cash,” buying four will earn you $6 Walgreens Cash.
   • Walgreens Cash is calculated before manufacturer coupon discounts but after store coupon discounts. Plan ahead to ensure your spend total meets the promotion requirements.
2. Expiration:
   • Walgreens Cash expires one year after you earn it.
   • If your account is inactive for six consecutive months, you’ll lose your Walgreens Cash balance.
3. Redeeming Walgreens Cash:
   • The minimum redemption is $1, and you can redeem up to $50 per transaction.
   • At checkout, the cashier will prompt the redemption screen. Simply select how much Walgreens Cash you want to use, confirm with your ZIP code, and you’re all set.
4. Using Walgreens Cash in Promotions:
   • When participating in “Spend X, Get X Walgreens Cash” deals, ensure your total after Walgreens store coupons meets the spend threshold. For example, if a deal requires spending $20 and a store coupon drops your total to $18.50, you won’t earn the Walgreens Cash.
