The Alka-Seltzer deal is fizzing over at Walgreens too

If you've got the $3 coupons for Alka-Seltzer but no Rite Aid nearby, you can still snag some of this cold & flu medicine for a $1 or $2 profit at Walgreens.  Thanks to Wild for Wags for confirming!






Buy three Alka-Seltzer Plus Fast Crystals or Powder Packs, 10ct, on sale for $3.99ea
Use three $3/1 coupons from this week's Red Plum circular
Pay $2.97 plus tax
Receive a $5 Register Reward back for a profit of  $2.03!

You can also buy two for $1.98 plus tax and receive a  $3 RR back for a profit of $1.02.


Remember: you can only get one deal per transaction.  If you want to purchase 5 or 6 Alka-Seltzers total, split them up into two transactions.  Buy three first, pay and get your RRs back, and then have the cashier ring up 2 or 3 more.  Don't use the RRs from your first transaction to pay for your second or you won't get the new RR.  Walgreens is more restrictive in their reward dollars program, so keep these two points in mind when you shop there.

The best deal overall is still at Rite Aid ($16 profit on six), but if you don't have enough coupons to buy 6 or if you don't have a Rite Aid in your area (Misty!), you can hop on the deal at Walgreens.
I believe I have two coupons left and if I do, I'm going to grab two more boxes later this week at Wags when I go to get the Coffee Mate on raincheck from Saturday.

Now go get'cha some!
