You can get free razors often.

Here’s a way you can do it right now, as in today.

1. Transfer a prescription from any pharmacy TO Walgreen’s. Call Walgreen’s first to make sure they will give you a $25 gift card for transferring the prescription (they often have coupons for this in their ads–the last one was in an ad about 2 weeks ago). Yay, you get a $25 gift card. Don’t use it yet.

2. Find a newspaper from this past weekend. There’s a coupon in one of the coupon inserts for $4.00 off a Gillette Fusion Gamer razor.  Sounds fancy huh? Clip it out.

3. Here’s the scenario:

• Razor price is $8.99
• Coupon brings price down to $4.99
• When you pay the $4.99 (plus tax) using your fancy gift card, a very special piece of paper will print.
• It’s a coupon (Register Reward) for $6.00 off your next Walgreen’s visit.
• So yeah, Walgreen’s just paid you a few dimes to take the razor.
• Sweet.

You may not use the Register Reward to repeat this deal. The computer will beep, and they will call you out in public. Not fun. Not that I’ve ever tried anything like this.
