The best part about couponing is looking at the receipt to see how much you saved. I like to think of shopping as a game. The goal is to bring the subtotal down to the lowest possible amount. So how low can you go?
If you are new to shopping Walgreens be sure and read the Shopping Walgreens Guide!

For those who want to pay the lowest amount out of pocket while rolling the RR’s with simple Transactions. Hopefully you can find a cheaper filler items than 69 cents in your store to pay less out of pocket.
