I still have mixed feelings about this Balance Rewards idea at Walgreens, but there is a change now in effect that makes me a little happier with the whole thing!
Instead of not being able to access your Balance Rewards until you have 5,000 ($5 worth) you can now access them as soon as you hit 1,000 points ($1 worth!)
Here is the official announcement from the Walgreens website:
“When purchasing items and/or services at a Participating Store, Member may choose to either redeem earned Points or continue saving Points to use on a future purchase of items and/or services. If Member elects to redeem earned Points, the Points will be converted into Redemption Dollars and the value of the Redemption Dollars will be deducted from the total price of the Member’s purchase of items and/or services from a Participating Store. Earned Points are converted into Redemption Dollars in eight(8) tiers:
(1) 1,000 points = $1
(2) 2,000 points = $2
(3) 3,000 points = $3
(4) 5,000 points = $5
(5) 10,000 points = $10
(6) 18,000 points = $20
(7) 30,000 points = $35
(8) 40,000 points = $50
