As a busy mom on a budget I was elated to find out that Walgreens is launching their all new Loyalty Card Program called Balance Rewards. This awesome new program allows you to save, earn, and redeem your points in store or online (beginning September 16th). If you pre-enroll before September 15th you will be entered into Walgreens 1 million points Sweepstakes! At the end of the promotional period 10 winners will be selected to win 1 million Balance Rewards points! The approximate retail value of the grand prize is $1,000 PER winner!
Signing up is super simple, you can go online or sign up right on your smart phone! You can also use your computer to send the mobile Rewards on-the-go app to your phone which is what I chose to do.
It was super easy especially because I already had an online Walgreens account from previous shopping, I just logged in to my current account on my newly downloaded app and activated my rewards and I was ready to go!
Once I was signed up and enrolled for my chance to win the Sweepstakes I was ready to start shopping from my phone. The best part about shopping from my phone? I can do it anywhere anytime, and now save money doing it!
I can keep track of my Balance Rewards, view my local weekly sales ads and create a shopping list so I don’t forget anything for my next trip. A super cool feature that I really love is that I can order online and have my items shipped to me or pick them up in store right after I pay is if I choose to. Any mom with little ones knows the quicker you can get in and out of a store the better, these options RULE!
I know exactly what I want (this time) so I search for it by name and it pops right up, choose my quantity and checkout….done!
You can see how I signed up online, downloaded the new app and shopped online in my complete Google+ album HERE.
Once I quickly confirmed my address was correct and entered my payment information I received an email confirmation of my order. I was also notified I would receive an email when my order ships (shipping ranges from 3-7 days).
Make sure you follow Walgreens on Facebook and Twitter so you can stay up to date on all their latest news and promotions!

No way! We LIVE at Walgreens - this is so perfect for us! My hubby is there weekly for his prescriptions. It’s right outside of our neighborhood (walking distance). It’s our ‘go to’ store for everything in between our big shopping trips to the grocery store. Oh and I already have an online account too because that is where I send my photos to print… I can’t wait to sign up! Thanks for telling about this!
