Even Better Deal on Diapers! Only $1.82/pack!
This week Walgreens is having a sale on their store brand diapers for $5.99each plus a special where they say that if you buy two packs they will give you $5 Register Rewards. For the uninitiated, Register Rewards print out at the end of your receipt and can be used just like money at Walgreens. In addition to that, they have Instant Value Coupon in their monthly ad booklet for $5/2. In the past, Walgreens registers take off the amount for the third item as well.
Here's a photo of the coupon from the IVC monthly ad booklet. You need to have the original booklet, I believe, compliments of irishlass on Hot Coupon World. So don't bother to print this.
So here's how you can get 9 packs of diapers for $1.54/pack + tax.
Transaction #1
Buy 3 packs Walgreens Diapers

Now spend those Register Rewards on something you need anyway like milk or bread or wipes.
So you will get 9 packs of diapers for $16.41 assuming you've spend your last Register Rewards on something you would have bought at full price anyway! That's only $1.82/pack!
A couple of words about the Walgreens brand diapers. They work about as well as any store brand diapers. Not as good as Pampers but pretty well, especially for the price! They are definitely better than the most cheaply made diapers. if you're worried about it, go ahead and buy a pack or three and see how they are before buying nine packs.
Keep in mind that the Walgreens brand diapers tend to run small. So buy the next size up than you normally use.
Happy shopping!
