UPDATE: This RR is no longer rolling!
Here’s a deal report from the trenches (it’s a battlefield out there you guys , hehe). According to the Krazy Coupon Lady, her sister and one of her readers, the Huggies diaper register rewards is rolling. In other words you can use the $3 RR you get after buying one pack to buy another pack and lower your out of pocket expense. In general RRs do NOT roll this way at Walgreens but it seems this one is doing it for the time being. If this is indeed rolling this is what you could do:
Huggies diapers $8.99
Buy one Valentine pencil $0.20 after in-ad coupon (filler so you can use RR to pay)
Use $2 off any Huggies diaper pack printable (IE ) (FF Link)
Use $1/1 Huggies diapers Walgreens store coupon from Children’s Activity book
Use $3/1 Huggies RR from previous transaction
Pay $3.19 plus tax out of pocket and earn another $3 RR
If you try this make sure to come back and share your experience. If it works, let’s keep this post updated to see when it stops working.
Hi! I am Mercedes and this is my blog Common Sense with Money! Helping other people live better, spend less, and save more is something I am very passionate about. I combine simple frugal living tips and smart shopping techniques to help moms across the U.S. become better home economists. Thank you for visiting my blog.
Nice! This is a pretty good price per pack.
I bought my diapers yesterday and didn’t even attempt to roll! I knew it would be brutal so wanted to make sure I got them before my usual Wednesday shopping trip.
I did great this week! Total before Qs and RRs-$120…total after $12! I have about $40 in RR for next week though, so I hope it will be a good one
Thanks for all your hard work!
I rolled mine yesterday here in Michigan. I was reluctant to do so but the cashier told me that they were rolling so I thought it must be right! I love my Walgreens cashiers!
Yes, I did roll mine yesterday.. it gave me another $3RR, i posted the 5 transactions I did here – http://gorgeous-mommy.com/?p=2136
By the way, I;m from San Diego, CA
As of 1:30, the Huggies RR was rolling in Mukwonago, WI.
I sent my husband with coupons but he got them mixed up and accidentally used the rr to pay for a 2nd transaction and it rolled. When he came home and I looked at the receipt and his remaining reg rewards, I kept saying “it rolled? it rolled?” and he didn’t understand why I was so excited! Back to the stores today to try again!
If you go to recyclebank.com, and open an account you get 100 points for signing up. With that 100 points you can print a $5.00 off coupon for Huggies. There are also several other coupons that you can choose from too. You can get an additional 50 points to your account by joining the ebay recycle team. There are several ways that you can continue to get points. Check it out.
RecycleBank sign up rewards have lowered…only 40 points! I just signed up this weekend and thats all I was awarded. I was also able to join the “Green Team” and get an additional 50 points, but still only a total of 90…not enough for the Huggies coupon I was after.
Sorry about that. I’m sure a good sale will come again. Hopefully by then you will have the extra 10 points that you need for that coupon.
you cant print the coupon they send it to you and it takes over a week
Is the Dove wash rolling too?
Zombiemommy,
The dove RR is not rolling unfortunately. Check Kara’s scenario below. It’s pretty good for rolling too.
Mercedes
Dove rolled for me on sunday but did not yesterday. I started out with $30 in rr and did 6 transactions with one ea of the Huggies and Dove.
Yea! My RR rolled! Thank you so much for the tip! I went today at noon and it worked.
Sheboygan, Wisconsin
What I’ve been doing instead is I started with a $5 huggies RR from the other week. I used that plus $1.50 dove Q to buy the body wash and got $6 RR back. Then used the $6 RR and $2 huggie Q for the diapers and got $3 RR back. Then I just repeat. The body wash is $1.49 oop with the $3 RR and 1.50 Q and then the diapers are 99 cents using the $6 RR and $2 Q (i don’t have the activity book Q). So you get body wash and diapers for $2.50 plus tax oop…..can’t complain!
Hey Kara did you use fillers to buy those diapers with the RR and the manufacturer coupons?
Yes, I bought fillers.
Are you guys using the same coupon from the activity book? My cashier took mine from another deal last week and said she had to have it.
She’s mistaken. The cashier does NOT need to collect Walgreens store coupons. Who does she think is going to pay them back? Themselves??? I asked for my Neosporin coupon back, and the cashier asked the manager, who said they did not need it and she could return it to me.
Some stores will give the coupon back, and some won’t.
Buy the Huggies @ $8.99
-$2.00 Printable
-$1.00 Activity book (if you have it)
Pay $5.99 & get a $3.00 RR. You do not need a filler item for this trans because you are buying 1 item, and using 1 coupon (activity book coupon/wags coupons do not count).
Next
Buy the Huggies @ $8.99
-$2.00 Printable
-$1.00 Activity book (if you have it)
-$3.00 RR from previous trans.
Pay $2.99, get a $3.00 RR.
Here you would need a filler because you are using that extra RR. So you have 1 item, and 2 coupons (RR counts as a coupon).
This is where a lot of people are using the .20 cent pencil in ad coupon. Again, this is a wags coupon, so it does not count in your total of coupons that you are using.
Yup, I found that out early Sunday when I went to buy some pull ups! I wasn’t really concerned about getting another RR when I used the previous RR because I had only planned on purchasing those 2 packages. But to my surprise I still got another one! So of course I went back and got 2 more packages!
Oh and I forgot, I purchased at the Norwalk, OH store!
where do you get the acctivity book??? I’ve looked everywhere in all 4 of the stores near my house and I’m having NO luck!!! HELP!
Well here is my plan…I have no RR’s to start.
I have 2 of the dove 1.50 IP’s from last week.
I have 8 of those $1.00 Poligrip coupons 1/03RP
I have 2 of the Dove Men Care 1.25 from the 1/31 RP
Not sure if I will need FILLERS to cover the coupons and the RR’s.
If so will bring up the .20cent valentine pencils to the register if its starts beeping after I hand over my transactions.
Buy 1 Super Poligrip $2 minus the 1.00 coupon = 1 OOP but a 2RR
Do it this transaction a second time then….
Now I have 4RR
Buy one Dove wash (5.99) use (2) 2RR and 1.50 Q=.50 OOP
Now I have a 6RR
Buy one Huggies 8.99 – 2.00 Q- 6.00RR=1.00 OOP
Now I have a 3RR
Buy one Dove Wash 5.99 -3.00 RR -1.50Q= 1.50 OOP
Now I have a 6RR
Buy one Huggies 8.99- 2.00 Q- 6.00RR=1.00 OOP
Now I have a 3RR
So far $6 out of pocket plus tax plus any fillers.
I have some Dove Washes RP1/25.
So I might roll this 2 more times. .25 higher oop but worth it for 2.75 diapers.
Either way I am using some RR’s to buy Scott Toilet Tissue when I run out of coupons or product or patience of the cashiers…………..:)
Okay I did it. 11 transactions…. Spent 20.42 oop But got 3 packs of Huggies, 1 Pack of toilet tissue $6.99, 7 aluminum foils, 1 Bleach, 1 Memo Pad, 6 Super Poligrip, 1 Hair Brush and 2 Doves Men Care…
I think there might have been a better way.. But oh well. Click on my name to see the 11 transactions…
My walgreens in IF want to get rid of the diapers and are happy to do multiple transactions
I did aluminum foil for a filler only 40 cents more than the pencil yet so much more useful.
Could you explain what you mean about rolling coupons.. or whatever you all are talking about. I need diapers. Can I use coupons and RR to pay? Not sure I’m following everyone, but I want to get the best bang for my buck. Thanks.
Rolling means that you can get the next pkg of diapers with the same $3 you got on the first pack of diapers. And the $3 you got from the second pack of diapers on the third, and so on. Walgreens RR usually doesn’t work this way, but for some reason it’s working on this deal!
It was still rolling at 5 p.m. in Charlotte, NC. Love it! Thanks for sharing!
Still rollingat 5:15 in Belleville, IL!
Rolling in Olathe, KS! Got 6 packages and left with $3 RR!
6:00 in WI and still working!
Kari,
Where in WI? I’m in the SE corner of WI (Kenosha / Racine area)
It just worked for me here in Lakeland, FL! Great diapers, great deal. I didn’t have the activity book so I paid a little more OOP but still a great deal. I also used the aluminum foil as a filler. It was worth the extra 40 cents for an item I will get more use out of.
Hi – Can you tell us what the foil deal is? I didn’t find it in the list here.
Thank you!
Someone with the RR from this diaper deal, please answer this ?, which (company/Retailer) does the RR have listed?? Who does it say the RR is ‘compliments of’??
I have a $5 RR that says “RETAILER” Mead Johnson” and it also says, “Compliments of Mead Johnson & Kimberly-Clark” I’m wondering IF I can use that RR to pay for the Huggies…or if that would void/cancel the $3 RR, I should earn on the Huggies this week, any thoughts?
Thank you!
Priscilla,
the huggies RR is a kimberly clark offer.
Mercedes
I used the same RR yesterday ($5 Mead Johnson & KC) and it printed the 3RR.
Thanks so much for the tip I got 4 packages of diapers. for Cheap!!!!
It worked as of 6:30pm in WI! The cashier gave me a hard time, though, and actually made me wait while she went and talked to the manager, since it normally doesn’t roll. I said I know it doesn’t normally, but it is now for whatever reason. She said if I kept rolling them they would end up owing me money, (which of course is untrue–it doesn’t work that way), so I explained that I would still end up with an RR at the end of my transactions to spend on something else, and that I wasn’t getting the diapers for free anyway. Whatever. I knew the manager would let it go through–what are they going to throw away the new RR saying I don’t deserve it? NO!
I posted it here:
Anyway, I did 6 transactions!
http://momforhim.blogspot.com/2010/02/huggies-deal-is-rolling.html
Could someone tell me about the filler needed here? It seems you’re using 3 things ($2 printed Q, $1 activity book, & $3 RR), but you only have 2 items. Which one doesn’t require an item? If I don’t have the activity book, do I still need a filler?
a RR counts the same as a coupon
Sorry guys I accidentally posted this response on the wrong message a minute ago. This is where this response actually belongs. OOPS!!!

Hi Jennifer,
You need a second item (the pencil) because you need to have as many items as you have manufacturer coupons and register rewards. This is what it’s called coupon/item ratio and it only counts for manufacturer coupons. Walgreens store coupons don’t count, which is why in this case you have two items, and three coupons (the manu coupon, the RR and the walgreens coupon). Hope that helps,
Mercedes
Thanks to you both!
I’ve been doing WAGS off & on for awhile, but never knew that the store coupons didn’t affect your coupon/item ratio.
You can’t have more coupons than items, so if you are using the $2 manufacturer, $1 Wags coloring book, and the RR then you need to have the diapers and 2 filler items. If you don’t have the Wags coloring coupon, then you can use 2 items and 2 coupons/ RR.
I have tried to understand this whole Walgreen (RR) talk too for a long time. Can someone fill me in?
Hi Stephanie,
OK, this is how it works and i will use the diaper example. This week when you buy one jumbo pack of huggies diapers for $8.99 you get a $3 register reward back. This register reward prints at checkout after you pay for the diapers. In general you would NOT be able to use this $3 RR you just got from buying diapers to buy more diapers. Because if you do the next RR wouldn’t print. But in this case it is working this way.
In the transaction I provided as example I use the pencil as a “filler item” because Walgreens sees RRs as manufacturer coupons and there needs to be as many items as you have RRs and manufacturer coupons. since you are using the huggies $2/1 printable coupon AND the RR you need to items in the transaction and the pencil counts as the second item.
I hope that makes sense, if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask more questions,
Mercedes
My RR rolled tonight here in Austin TX. THanks!
Apple Valley, MN rolled just fine, there was also a catalina that printed off for Enfamil ($5 off) each time.
Still rolling as of 10pm here in Phoenix, AZ…Plus also getting Catalina’s for $2 off Pampers and $5 off Enfamil in addition to the $3 RR!!!
Has anyone tried it today (Tuesday)? Curious to see if they updated their registers overnight before I head to Wags for my weekly shopping. I really need some Pull-Ups!
I’m wondering the same thing, Laura. Anyone know? I’m going out this morning and will try it if no one reports and let you know!
Worked for me today at 7:15am in Houston, TX
Worked for me in TN at 9 AM!!!
Still rolling in TN at 11am BUT my coloring book coupon did not work. Beeped and they would not override (says cannot be combined) at three different Wags. The same coupon worked for me yesterday so I don’t know if that is an update in their system.
Still working for me at 11 am in Charlotte, NC!
11am in Knoxville, TN. The coloring book worked too but the last cashier refused to let me use it for more than one transaction and threw it away. Oh, well.
Where in Knoxville did it work?
Campbell St. and Grigsby Chapel and the one on Kingston all the way out west past Ingles.
12:30 in East Chicago, Indiana. I’m also buying the “free after rewards” men’s shower gel for $5.99, and getting a $6 RR. I’m hanging onto the $6 RRs to use on the diapers once the $3 stops rolling.
I realized I had bought wrong size of Huggies when I got to my car and took them back in to Wags to exchange and when my new exchange receipt printed out another $3.00 Huggies RR popped out and I hadn’t purchased only exchanged. I ran to my car to throw correct size exchanged Huggies in trunk and ran back in store with my FREE RR. I was thrilled!!
I just got back – did eight transactions and it rolled for me! 12:30pm in St. Paul, MN
This was a steal for me, my kids wear size 5 and 6 so to get them for $0.11/diaper is a great price!
Still rolling! 6:25pm – Dyer, IN
I was wondering I asked a cashier and he said you can stack the Enfamil “checks” you get in the mail and the $5 off coupons that have been printing off at Walgreens. What has been others experience with this?
I printed off the Super Poligrip coupons from online, and used those the other day. I wanted to go back tomorrow to do another transaction, so I was looking through my 1/3 Red Plum inserts, and I do not have a $1.00 off Poligrip coupon in either one of mine. I have like 10 of each insert too. Poligrip Q is not in any of them. I find this kinda weird since nobody else said anything. Did anybody else have this problem?
I found mine in the 1/3 Red Plum with Beyonce on the cover. It says Loreal just above the picture of her. I got this from an Arizona paper. I hope this helps:)
Thanks for posting this amazing deal!! I had 6 each of the Dove Body Wash and the Huggies Q so I scored big!!! After purchasing six of each I has a 3RR left over and used that and 1Q to get Quilted Northern 9 pack for free!!
Still Rolling 02/10
I was able to roll them in the Friendswood, TX store on 518 @ Parkwood Ave. This is the ONLY store in the area that will print up any RR’s if you use coupons toward your purchase. Any others in the area claim that you can’t pay less than the advertised price in order to get the RR’s. I have had to call the Catalina company and have them mailed to me.
I went back to my Walgreens last night to use some $1 coupons I found for the Huggies deal, and the cashier said if I used the Huggies RR and another one printed out (because they are still rolling), she would throw it away right in front of me! How rude! I’m starting to get fed up with this particular Walgreens, which is frustrating because it’s the closest to my house.
I went to another Walgreens down the road and that lady let me roll them. She told me it might not work, but it did, so she let me do 4 transactions back to back. So I guess it depends on your cashier!
I went to my Walgreens today and used two huggies RR to pay for my Huggies and no register reward printed. Was it the two that caused it not to roll? Will it still roll with just one RR used during the transaction?
Didn’t work for me in Three Rivers, MI. I was bummed!
Hey guys! Just a heads up that this RR is no longer rolling.
Mercedes
Could I do 3 different transactions & get 3 RR to use another time (not rolling any)?
Or if I buy 3 packages on one transaction, will I get 3 RR or is it 1 RR per transaction?
Thanks. WAGS shopping is new to me.
Hi Isabel,
Yes, the RR is still working just it is not rolling anymore. I am working on some scenarios soon.
Mercedes
Ok, so AFTER the Huggies RR stop rolling, I realize I should go out and stock up on some diapers!!!!
So I went today and of course the shelves were stacked again and I was able to get a total of 20 packs between 3 stores.
Now the issue is that I have 20 $3RRs, that’s $60 bucks!!!
What am I gonna do with that? They expire in 2 weeks!
Mia,
you may want to ask your grocery store and see if they take them. my store does because they are manufacturer coupons and they will be reimbursed.
Mercedes
Thank you Mercedes, I’ll give that a shot…If not, I hope walgreens has some good sales the next couple of weeks, I’ll be checking your blog. Thank you for all your help!
You can turn some of them into cash by doind the olay rebate. A good one to consider doing for rolling is the vicks rr deal.
Buy 4 Dayquil or Nyquil products $5 each
Buy two boxes of Puffs product
4 musketeers bars $1.96 ( a bit more if next week)
Use four $2/1 Nicks product coupons
Use two free Puffs product coupon
use four huggies rr
Pay $1.96 plus tax out of pocket and earn a $10 register reward plus $1.50 from musketeers
Mercedes
