With summer coming to a close and the new school year approaching, it’s a good idea to check out the discounts retailers like Walgreens are offering. Right now, Walgreens has everything from school supplies to vitamins and supplements to acne treatments and more.

Joanie Demer, co-founder of The Krazy Coupon Lady, recommends stacking deals to find the best price. For example, there was a recent deal offering 89% off Pampers diapers and hair care products from Love, Beauty and Planet.

Seniors can also find even lower prices on Seniors Day, which occurs once a month, even on the first Tuesday of every month. “To use the discount in-store, you must have a myWalgreens account and let a Walgreens associate know you want to claim your Seniors Day discount,” Demer said. “But seniors can actually shop online with a senior discount promo code all week long (from the Sunday before Seniors Day to the Saturday after). Just enter the code SENIOR20 at checkout to save 20% on regularly priced purchases during Seniors Week.”

Use code SCHOOL15 to get an additional 15% off an order of $35 or more sitewide, and use code SCHOOL20 to get 20% off an order of $50.

Here are the best deals you can find at Walgreens.
