From prescriptions to groceries, and gifts to household essentials, Walgreens is a one-stop-shop for savvy savers. Walgreens is famous for their weekly sales, which offer deep discounts storewide. There are sales events hosted throughout the year, with plenty of opportunities to save more with coupons and Rewards every day. Each season introduces a new cycle of sales you won’t want to miss.
SAVINGS HACK: To get the most savings, purchase household essentials like toilet paper, personal grooming, and cosmetics for the lowest prices during weekly sales. Toys are at rock bottom during November and December holiday sales. Watch for baking supplies in the grocery section to fall below grocery store prices about once a month. You can stock up on cereal for around $1 four to five times a year, with sales and coupons.
Walgreens Weekly Sales

Walgreens’ weekly sales run Sunday to Saturday each week. Their sales cover the entire store, so whether you need batteries or toothbrushes, snacks or allergy medication, you’ll find a great deal.
Walgreens Seasonal Sale Offers
Throughout the year, Walgreens hosts multiple sales. These are generally held at the beginning of each season and during the holidays. The items you’ll find on sale during these events depends on the sale. For example, in the spring season, you’ll get more discounts on organization and cleaning products, while holidays feature more gift-related items.
Walgreens Holiday Sales
The holidays are celebrated at Walgreens with deals online and in-store, starting in early November. These deals run through the new year before excess stock is clearanced in January. The Gift of the Week features new items for 50% off, and photo gifts for 60% off, through December 26th.
Walgreens After Christmas Sale
Although there is no “After Christmas Sale” at Walgreens, their holiday items leftover from the Christmas rush are marked down significantly, and quickly. That’s to make room for the new Valentine’s Day merchandise. The markdowns are generally: the day after Christmas - 50% off, 5 days after Christmas - 70% off, and 7 days after Christmas - 90% off (excluding candy).
Walgreens Spring Sale
There’s no special Walgreens spring sale, but each season gives Walgreens the chance to feature and discount new items. For example, in the spring season, we see great bargains on Easter items, gardening supplies, allergy medications, and more. In the summer, ads and discounts reflect savings on outdoor items like water guns, sunscreen, chips & sodas, and pool toys.
