Hey guys!I did a little bit of research and it looks like some Walgreens (the ones reported are in DE, NM, NY, ID so far) have a shorter ad where the Scuncis and Fiber Choice aren't on sale. With CVS they let us know about this stuff ahead of time, but no such luck with Walgreens. :(If you were one of the ones who had a shorter ad, I would recommend calling customer service and complaining. Let them know that you do not like that the ads are different. If enough people call, maybe they will change it! The customer service number for Walgreens is: 1-800-925-4733

I had the same problem with the Scunci. And my store told me there was no RR for the Fiber Choice. I am in Eastern Idaho.

Hi Kelly!They should have been at the bottom of page 6 in the ad. I haven't heard of Walgreens having different ads in different parts of the country, although that sometimes happens with CVS. Hmm, not sure why yours weren't ringing up correctly.

I had a problem with the hair ties. They weren't listed on my ad- and Walgreens said they were 2/$5- and no RR. Tell me more.

Come see my Walgreen deals :)
