Starbucks Money Maker!!


Walgreens has the Starbucks Refreshers and Starbucks Iced Coffees on sale for just $1 and you get a $1 register reward back (this is a coupon that prints from their Catalina machine which is next to the receipt machine).  This dollar can be used towards future purchases at Walgreens or stores that accept competitors manufacture coupons (like Harris Teeter).  If you choose to use these register rewards at your Walgreens, then you can only use one register reward/manufacture coupon per item.  So for example, if I buy one gallon of milk and 3 candy bars, I can use up to 4 register rewards. 


Use these coupons to make this a money maker deal:



Remember that at Walgreens if you buy multiples of the same deal, you have to buy them separately if you want more than one register reward.  So I had to do 8 different transactions.  When I do this, I don't like to hold up the line, so I always let the cashier know ahead of time and will let people go in front of me, so I'm not that annoying couponer that holds up the line.  Also be prepared with coins for this deal, so the cashier doesn't have to break large bills as you'll be paying $0.02 or $0.07 per transaction.  

Each Starbucks Refresher was $1.02, I used the $1 coupon, paid $0.02 and got back $1.00 RR.
Each Starbucks Iced Coffee was $1.07, I used the $1 coupon, paid $0.07 and got back $1.00 RR

For all 8, I paid $0.36 tax and got back $8 in register rewards. 

I plan on using these register rewards at Harris Teeter this week, because they are having a Super Doubles promotion where all manufacture coupons (remember these register rewards are considered manufacture coupons) up to $2 double.  Harris Teeter accepts competitors manufacture coupons.  You might want to check your local Harris Teeter before you try this.  I've done this before at my local HT so I know they consider Walgreens (which is across the street) a competitor.  

My $8 in RR will be $16 to spend at Harris Teeter.  I plan on using this on meat as I can never find good meat coupons :)

**Also remember that you can only print 2 of each coupon PER computer.  We have a desktop and a laptop, which is why I was able to score 4 of each :)**
