I tried today, thinking maybe it just wasn't marked. But, no, I was charged $5.99. I did receive the $1 RR, though. I'm not sure what happened with that--usually Walgreens doesn't vary by region, but we don't have that sale here. The Walgreens in Idaho Falls don’t seem to have the Electrasol on sale, either.

However, not all stores are consistent about correctly labeling prices and sales on the shelves. Perhaps the Electrosol was not marked as on sale on the tag? If so, it will still ring up at the sale price and generate RR. I could be totally wrong, but that is my theory. :) Hi Kate- Walgreens deals do not usually vary by region.

Do their deals vary by state? I'm from Utah. I did get a good deal on the Neosporin and found some Sammy haircare items on clearance for under $3 and they still qualified for the weekly BOGO offer.
