Walgreens Doing Business the Right Way

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

I think it’s so wonderful when a company participates in social networking. They are so much more open, so able to become aware of and address their customers needs. I just found out about Walgreens on Twitter and Walgreens on Facebook. I love Walgreens. They opened up a store in my area several years ago. I don’t know where they get their people, but the store has some of the friendliest and kindest employees I’ve ever met. These people are so enthusiastic that I love to shop and get my prescriptions there!

Moreover, the company has the Prescription Savings Club at Walgreens, a program that offers deep discounts on drugs and Walgreens products for members. It’s a wonderful alternative to the sometimes lousy health insurance coverage or for those of us who do not have insurance coverage at all. The annual membership fee is currently a steal at $35 a year for a family plan, and that even includes the family pets and any dependents under age 22. The individual plan is only $20 a year. Love it!

With the plan, Walgreens offers members huge savings on generic and brand-name prescriptions and medications, discounts on flu shots, supplies for diabetics and nebulizers. They also have some discounts for pet prescriptions, which can be very expensive otherwise. And of course, membership includes discounts and savings on Walgreens-brand products and the photo-finishing shop. I love it!

Definitely check out the Prescription Savings Club at Walgreens if you’ve been looking for a prescription coverage plan. The fee is very low and it will pay for itself very quickly. Gotta love Walgreens– they actually LIKE their customers!

WIn a New Office!

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Contest Factory for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Feeling glum because your crowded cubicle is looking a tad dingier than usual? Or perhaps your office coffee pot is so old and corroded that coffee barely drips from the maker and tastes like burnished motor oil? I’ve got some goot news for you. Enter the Pimp My Cube Contest and win a new office! The requirements are so easier, and the worse your office is, the better your chances are of winning!

To enter, create a 30-second to 60-second video explaining why your office or cubicle is the worst ever, and why you should win the contest. Upload your video to the PMC website and invite your family, friends, and co-workers to vote. With this, you collect sweepstakes entry points. All videos will be viewed and voted on by judges, who also take into account the popularity of your video.

Here’s a good example of a “Bad Cubicle” video. LOL.

Winners will receive one of three major prize packages: a new HIGH END computer system; a new desk, chair and office decorations; a new entertainment package with stereo, espresso machine, and more. Second prize winners get a $200 gift card in a random drawing.

You can upload your video with your webcam or phone, too. It’s very easy. Chances are very good, too. The contest runs until January 31, 2012 at midnight.

Walgreens, Express Scripts Contract Failure Gives More Options to Customers

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

A recent press release reports that contract negotiations between nationwide pharmacy retail store Walgreens and major prescription drugs benefits manager Express Scripts has failed, ending a contract between the two companies on December 31, 2011. According to the release, Express Scripts sought to “unilaterally” control terms of the contract (such as defining generic versus brand drugs) and sought to reduce “reimbursement rates to levels below” industry standards.

Unfortunately, customers are caught in the middle, including members of the military in Tricare, an Express Scripts client. Patients on Express Scripts can no longer fill their prescriptions at Walgreens nationwide or Duane Reade pharmacies in New York City. Despite the gloomy news, Walgreens has developed its own solution that will perhaps benefit customers even more.

Walgreens is offering customers a deeply discounted membership plan during the month of January 2012. Families can sign up for Prescription Savings Club at Walgreens for a mere $10 a year; individuals may register for $5 a year. After January, the rates rise to $20 and $35.

The savings on the Walgreens Prescription Plan can be substantial. Walgreens offers generic drugs which can cost a fraction of the price of brand name drugs, with nearly 400 different generic drugs costing $1 or less per week. This move proves once again that Walgreens is the champion of the average consumer. Despite this Walgreens and Express Scripts setback, customers may find that service and options improve.

Check out Walgreens on Facebook and Walgreens on Twitter for up to date news and notices of discounts.

I LIKE Gift Card Weekend

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Gift Card Weekend for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

 

I actually love gift cards. They are so handy, especially when traveling. Nothing like free food or stuff, right? Have you heard about Gift Card Weekend? It’s when a slew of retailers offer freebies in the form of gift cards. One of my favorite is the Subway $10 gift card. That makes a very nice lunch for two. :) But Subway isn’t the only participating retailer. Others on the list include JCPenney’s, Marriott, Bass Pro Shops, Regal Cinema, Applebee’s, Lowe’s Sephora, Adidas, Spa Finder, Giant Eagle and more! All these stores and restaurants are giving away free gift cards during the holiday week of December 23rd through December 28th, 2011. 
 
OK, are you ready to enter? It’s actually very easy– simply like Gift Card Weekend on Facebook. You can share the LIKE with your friends and get an extra entry, for every person who “likes” your “like”! You could win a $10 gift card from Subway! Do you like that? :) LOL
 
The only stipulation is that the gift card must be used from January 6th to January 8th. I can handle that, haha!
 
Check out the Facebook page for more information. You can also enter to win gift cards from other retailers. It’s a great way to spread that holiday cheer a little further. ;)

Oh my word, this is definitely something I am going to enter! It’s the Pimp My Cube Contest. I don’t care much for the name, lol, but I love the contest! 
 
Pimp My Cube is searching for the Worst of the Worst cubicles and offices. Maybe your chair is from than the Eisenhower era, or perhaps your gloomy cubicle is dark and ugly, a real misery in which to work. Pimp My Cube wants to bring a little joy into your life. :)  
 
Here’s the scoop: 
 
1. Create a video of your office. Make it funny or make people cry. Haha! Upload it to the Pimp My Cube website. 
 
 
2. Get your friends, family, co-workers and strangers off the street to vote for your video!
 
3. Judges will select a winner based on the video that has the most votes and has the most compelling story. 
 
4. Grand total prizes include a new high-end computer system, a new chair, new desk, and new office decorations. AND a brand new entertainment package with stereo and espresso machine, and more! All prizes have a value of about $1,200. That would buy a LOT of paper clips. 
 
5. The contest runs NOW until January 31, 2012 at midnight. 
 
Here’s an example of a cute video and a VERY needy employee. 
 
 
6. Runner-up gets a $200 gift card, chosen randomly. 
 
So how is your office? Is it as pathetic as mine? I will soon have a video up about my home office. I was recently lamenting how ugly and inefficient (and messy) it is. Maybe you would vote for me? I’ll be sure to post the link here as soon as I put it together. What a great contest!
