Hey Green Family! Some exciting news for my buddies over at Duane Reade. As Duane Reade official assimilates as part of the Walgreens family, their new rewards program launched a few days ago. And today you can earn a bonus 5,000 points by spending only $30. So in total, you’ll earn 7,500 points! I’m a gal who loves to save so I put on my sneakers and dashed out the door.

With your new card, you can use at Duane Reade or Walgreens and save on many sale items. I’ll show you some of the awesome green products I was able to find today. Some other benefits include:
Get 500 points for every prescription, earn points on thousands of items each week, and you can redeem instantly with as few as 5,000 points. Every month, certain products will earn you bonus rewards so always checks the circular before your shopping trip.

The points system works as follows:

My Home Spa Night Items




Buy one get one 50% off until September 29th! They have tons of eco-friendly bath accessories, plenty made from bamboo and other sustainable materials.
I purchased 1 pair woven mesh bath gloves (great for body exfoliation), 1 bamboo foot file 2 natural bristle back brushes, and 2 body elements bamboo and loofah facial sponges. I can never leave Duane Reade without a pack of their eco-friendly toilet paper.

Then look what I found…


Organic hand and face wipes at $1.99! Not only is it a great price, these are super convenient to keep in your purse or bag for travel and everyday use.


One of my favorite lines, Shea Moisture, is also on sale at 20% off until September 29th.

Random finds


Bamboo spoons and cutting boards anyone? Duane Reade now carries an entire line of bamboo kitchenware. These would make such a smart, last minute gift pickup.



I was pleasantly surprised to see that Duane Reade now carries many bug products from EcoSmart! I got a bottle of the insect repellant for mister as he is taking a trip overseas where that will most likely be necessary.


Also, stay on the look out for this new drink: Bai. It is only 5 calories and contains a coffee-fruit, which is a natural source of caffeine. Coffee fruit is the flesh that surrounds the coffee bean. I’ve loved this fruit since ONE introduced it a few years ago in their coffee fruit drink and have since discontinued making it :-(

So now I get to stop typing, you get to go shopping, and I get to commence my home spa night.
