What are Register Rewards?

What are Register Rewards (RR)?
RR are coupons from the Catalina machine that print after you make a qualifying purchase in the same transaction. Most RRs are "On Your Next Order" (OYNO) which can be used like cash on your next order. Sometimes you will get a Catalina for $ off a particular item. These seem to be generated by the purchase of competitor items.

If my sales flyer shows RRs for tylenol and kelloggs, can I buy them both in the same transaction?
Yes. If you buy different register rewards items in one transaction, one reward for each RR offering should print. However, you need to make sure they are really separate deals. If they are both Johnson & Johnson products, both of your RRs may not print. It's probably better to do separate transactions.

Will my store really let me do separate transactions?
YMMV (your mileage may vary). I tend to do no more than 2 at a time and go when they aren't busy. You can also do your transactions over several different days during the ad period.

Can I use more than 1 RR per order?
YMMV. The RRs now have language which says that you cannot use more RRs and coupons than number of items you are buying. My store interprets that to say that I can use more than 1 RR per transaction.

Can other store GCs sold at WAGs or stamps be bought with a RR? Can I buy gift cards with a WAGs GC?
Most RRs explicitly say that they can not be used on any gift card, pre-paid card or postage stamps. You can use a WAGs GC to purchase other store GCs.

I just got a $5 RR from the Kellogg's deal and I want to use it to buy more Kellogg's items. Can I do that?
This is known as "rolling RRs." You can use a RR from Kellogg's to purchase more Kellogg's items, BUT most likely you will NOT get another RR. Your best bet it to use your Kelloggs RR to purchase another item generating RRs. You can then use the RRs from that other, unrelated item, to purchase more Kelloggs.

If my ad says Buy $15 get $5 do they calculate the $15 before of after coupons?
The amount is calculated before any coupons are taken off.

My RR didn't print. What can I do?
Call Catalina at 1-888-8coupon (1 (888) 322-3814), option 3. Make sure you have your register available when you call. They'll determine why your RR didn't print and if applicable mail you one via first class mail. You can also ask your store for a form to mail in or contact Catalina online: Contact | Catalina Marketing
