First they decreased the value of the points.  Then they limited categories to which they can be applied.  The latest indignity?  They took my points away because they were more than a year old.  What about the stuff I bought this year?  Also gone with no explanation. (Mental stream of profanities here)  I vow never to darken their door again.

I don't bother with point system b/c I don't shop there often.  But because of 'my account'...saved $10 range buying various things at check-out.

Without account/card..... would have paid full price instead of their in-store specials.

We just do not do any of those reward thingies. Changing rules in the middle of the game!

Walgreens is losing thousands with all of the organized shoplifting.  

Guess they have to cut back someplace.🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

I use Walgreens and haven't had this happen to me.  I get emails regarding monthly specials such as spend $35 this month and get $7 in reward dollars.  I go about once a month so it works for me.    There are certain things I prefer to buy at the pharmacy.  I would rather give them my business than CVS, as to me they are like a Walmart "bully", JMO.

I agree. Walgreens reward program is hit or miss with me. I met the spend amount and they never credited me with the dollar reward I had coming. It was just too much trouble to challenge them this past time.  

I learned to always use any rewards money when I make a purchase.

Recently I unsubscribed from their program because their unrelenting ads were taking over my inbox.

I've been a Walgreens shopper for years.  I'm in there about once a week - it's just around the corner.  Their grocery section is limited  - but their prices are better than the supermarket.  Paper products are also less expensive.  

I'm doing very well with points.  I usually have about $10 or $20 accumulated each month.

Walgreens has always been sneaky and under-handed.  Years ago, the Texas Attorney General sued them for their bait and switch schemes.  They'd run ads for an item for a certain price but when you arrived at a store it was never available but there was a display with a higher priced, similar item.

Not a fan to say the least.  I did just go in there yesterday morning to see if any Thanksgiving themed candy could be found.  But like most stores Thanksgiving is all down and Christmas is all up.  Walked out without buying a thing.
