{CLOSED} Giveaway: Walgreens $50 Gift Card

06/11/2011 By Charlene

This post may contain affiliate links, please see my disclosure policy.

This post brought to you by Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.

Pharmacist

 

I was recently sent a sample of Walgreens Brand Antibiotic ointment to try.   As we all know, most of the time brand name products can be less expensive than store brand items when you combine coupons and sales.

There are lots of occasions when you might be in a pinch to get a medication or pain reliever and I like the convenience of finding quality store brands at reasonable prices.

Walgreens does offer a ton of different Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness Products at really reasonable prices that compare to name brands.  I tested the antibiotic ointment compared to some Neosporin that I already had on hand and there was no difference that I could tell.

In regards to pricing, the Walgreens brand was priced at $5.99 for 1.0oz and the Neosporin was $8.99 for the same size.

Many of the products have the same ingredients as national brands and Walgreens offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee so if there is a product you don’t care for, just return it for a full refund!

One last point to mention is the Walgreens Way to Well Fund™.  They donate .01 from every Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness item sold to local charities, up to $3 million annually.

    I use all different Wags store brand products such as cough meds, pain relievers, etc. Really can’t tell the difference and the Wags brands offer better value most of the time.

    I absolutely LOVE all walgreen brand products. I usually always buy the walgreens brand instead of the name brand because for a lower price you get the same quality product.
    I follow you on facebook, get emails, and will tweet the message.
    Thank you for all the money you’ve saved me over the last year!!!

  21. Michellele says

    06/11/2011 at 9:58 AM

    I have tried the antiobiotic ointment and it is comparable to Neosporin. My husband has tried the Walgreens nasal strips. Those didn’t work as well as the Breathe Right. We took those back.

  22. Barb S says

    06/11/2011 at 9:59 AM

    My kids are heavy users of Walgreen’s extra-huge bandaids (the kind that cover a whole skinned knee!) They work just as well as the name brand and are priced WAY less.

  23. Jean C. says

    06/11/2011 at 10:01 AM

    i have tried the walgreens brand benadryl, and children’s motrin. both were nicely priced, and worked the same, and the ingredients were also the same if i remember correctly. of course, i use sales and qs for the brand names, but as you said in a pinch i go for the store brand.

  37. Segou says

    06/11/2011 at 10:31 AM

    I have not tried any Walgreens brand products that I can think of, but would LOVE to win!

  38. Rie says

    06/11/2011 at 10:32 AM

    Yes, I’ve tried the wags brand liquid benadryl. Works as good as the brand name!

  44. Tori says

    06/11/2011 at 10:40 AM

    I use the Waldryl exclusively. It’s way cheaper than Benadryl & works exacty the same.

  45. stacie says

    06/11/2011 at 10:41 AM

    I haven’t tried a Walgreens Brand item yet… I was raised to avoid drugstores like the plague but since following MFA, I’ve branched out and we’ve tried CVS and Rite-Aid. Walgreens is next on my list to try and a 50.00 gift card would sure be a great way to start!

  46. heather h says

    06/11/2011 at 10:45 AM

    We have used several of their children’s medicines and we have liked them all.

  47. elsa kidwell says

    06/11/2011 at 10:45 AM
