At my store, the Tresseme shelf was cleaned out. And the problem with the L’Oreal Q in the booklet was that it was for either the Blonde stuff or plain Preference. The in-ad Q, apparently, was only for the Superior Preference. I had asked the cashier in that department before I picked it up if there were any other types of ‘Preference’ and she said no, just the Superior. I told them never mind then and left empty-handed.

I tried the Tresemme deal today. I bought 2 of the Tresemme 24hour Body Weightless Creme 5 oz UPC: 022400624327 $1.29 clearance price and it did NOT print out a RR. I will return tomorrow and try with a purchase of 3 and see if that works.

I’m pretty certain the Tresemme deal is buy 3 (not 2) and get a $5 RR. I’ve done it with 3 of the clearanced items and it worked just fine, the items were $1.29 each.

Hi Kristina,

That’s why you need to read the add and tags carefully. there are usually two types these register rewards deals are worded. Some are get $x in RRs when you buy x number of items and the other is get $x in RRs when you spend $x. In the case of the toothbrushes the RR was worded as spend $10 get $5 back. The tresemme deal is buy two and get $5 RRs. This last type is usually the type when you can get a good deal with clearance finds.
Hope that makes sense.

I got a good deal on L’oreal makeup since some of the concealers/foundations ($4.29 clearance) and eye shadows are on clearance ($1.79 clearance). These still count towards the ‘buy $20 in L’oreal, get $5 L’oreal RR’. (count them at the clearance prices) I even used the $3 and $1 coupons from the 1/3 RP. I got 4 concealer/foundations and 5 eye shadows and paid about $7 after all of my discounts….still got the $5 L’oreal bonus RR too!

Kristina, I dind’t do the Tresemme deal yet (the Walgreens I went to didn’t have the clearanced types), but I did the Curel and Jergens deal that was posted not too long ago and got the RR just fine. All of the lotion was on clearance and I used coupons too…..still got the RR so I don’t think it should matter. Hope this helps. Plus you can always return the items if things don’t turn out like you had expected.

Has anyone done the Tresemme deal. A few weeks ago there was a buy 2 Colgate battery powered toothbrushes for 10.00 and get a 4RR. I did the deal and got one of the clearance toothbrushes and didn’t spend 10.00 so I didn’t get the RR. I was worried this would happen on this deal as well.

I went yesterday for the deal and they put up several signs in front of the hair colors stating that there was a misprint on that $3 store coupon and will not be deducted for the PREFERENCE variety. Bummer!

For the Tresemme deal do you have to purchase 2 or 3????

my walgreens actually had a little sign posted about the january booklet coupon…apparently there was a misprint. the coupon was supposed to be for the dream blonde color, which is regular like $15. so that’s why it wouldn’t work on the regular loreal preference color that was in this week’s ad. i ended up voiding my transaction too. seems like they would have to honor it regardless. kinda disappointing

What coupons did you end up using instead? I’m trying to figure out the best deal without that one Walgreens coupon that isn’t scanning.

The same thing here too.

Same thing,I just voided the transaction. We often use 2 wag’s cps. I think its something else with that coupon.

I don’t think you can use 2 Walgreens coupons. That’s probably why it didn’t work.

Oh, my goodness! I had the same exact thing happen to me today! The cashier and assistant manager tried and tried to get the $3.00 coupon from the January coupon book to work without any success. It is a legitimate Walgreen’s coupon for Loreal Preference hair color, but it WOULD NOT scan. And I ended up paying $3.50 each rather than $0.50 each.

Mine said the same thing, it ended up costing me about $6 total instead of $1 total. It was something I wanted, but didn’t work out quite like I thought it would.

I tried to do the loreal preference hair color & the store wouldnt take the coupon from the January coupon book : ( They said it was only for the Loreal Blonde something… Anyone have any luck with this?

I hope I can find the L’oreal…….I really like that type of Shampoo/Conditioner! Thanks for the tip!
