Walgreens (5/16 to 5/22)

I didn't find a great wealth of deals this week at Walgreens.  However, I DID find FREE dental floss!  I had four coupons for $1 off 1 Reach Dental Floss exp. 12/31/10 (from 5/16/10 RP), and they're still selling it for $0.99.  If you want to get this deal, you'll need to have the cashier adjust the value of your coupon to $0.99 because Walgreens' registers will not let you have a coupon where the amount exceeds the total purchase value.

Walgreens also has select vitamins on sale this week for B1G1 or B1G1 50%.  If you're running low, now would be a good time to stock up!
