Walgreens Rules in a Nutshell:
You may only do each deal once per transaction.
You cannot use the RR from one deal to pay for the same deal if you want to get another RR.
You may not use more manu Qs (including RRs) than the number of items in your transaction.
A RR cannot pay tax and it’s value will not be reduced.
For a more in depth explanation of these rules, you can read my post “How to Roll With Walgreens“

If you use your $3.50 RR from depend in T2, it won’t print the $3.50 RR for that transaction——-right?
Correct – it shouldn’t print. Sometimes there’s a glitch and they will, but it’s best not to plan on it otherwise you’ll have to deal with returns.
