Walgreens Balance Rewards program. Starting Today 9/16/12 the new program has kicked in. You will be able to sign up on-line HERE and in store for the new Walgreens Balance rewards card.
You’ll have to either show your card, use your phone number, or have them scan mobile phone. You’ll be able to check your points either at the store, on-line or on your cell phone. It will take time to get everyone acclimated on the new program including cashiers, so you may have to remind them about your balance rewards card before the transaction is complete otherwise they will have to void the transaction and start over again with your purchase.
We’ll first see loyalty points deals in the September 16th ad, along with some Register Reward deals. Here’s the scoop…
HOW TO EARN POINTS
You’ll be able to earn and redeem points based on select items in the ad.
You’ll be able to earn 500 points on most prescriptions and other purchases.
You’ll be able to earn 10 points for every mile you walk at Walk with Walgreens.
They’ll continue to be exclusive benefits for AARP members.
REDEEM POINTS
You’ll be able to redeem points on most items in the store.
Points will not expire for three years, as long as you shop at Walgreens a minimum of once per 6 months.
You get more bang for your buck when you let points accumulate and make larger transactions.
I know that it will take some getting used to the new program. We’ll be able to still take advantage of some Register Reward deals while getting used to the new loyalty points system. Just as with anything that’s new I’m sure it’ll take some time for them to work out the kinks. I am looking forward to automatically getting sale prices with the card, and being able to use the points on almost any purchase. For those of you who redeem prescriptions at Walgreens this is also an opportunity to earn some extra points on each of those purchases.
