Walgreens Wellness Basket

This giveaway is nothing to sneeze at!  With the cold and flu season arriving, Walgreens is offering to one of our lucky readers a great gift basket brimming with $100 worth of Walgreens goodies like cough drops, thermometer, hand sanitizer, and of course a Walgreens Flu Shot Gift Card!

Walgreens Flu Impact Report series, Part I and Part II, revealed how the flu affected American’s lives last year. Key results included:

  • 100 million work days lost due to flu-related illness last season, resulting in $6.8 billion in lost wages.
  • One-third of respondents spent between $251 and $1,000 treating the flu last season.
  • 32 million school days were missed due to flu last season, which also translates to missed work days and other challenges.

Bottomline, we have to do all we can to stay healthy!

Here are the Official Giveaway Rules:

How to Enter:

  1. Leave a comment below letting us know if you got your flu shot this year.  

You must supply a valid email address. Email addresses should be put in the private field and not in the public comment box.

  • All entries must be left in the comments of this site only. Facebook comments or emails will not count as a giveaway entry.
  • The giveaway ends on Friday, December 2nd at 10pm EST.  No entries will be counted after that time frame.
  • All entrants must be at least 18 years old and reside in the United States.
  • Winners will be chosen at random. Winners will be notified of the giveaway via email. Winners must respond with mailing address within 36 hours or another winner will be chosen.

Larisha December 2, 2011 at 9:54 pm

No Flu shot here either!!! Waiting on work to offer it!!!

Leah Eldridge December 2, 2011 at 9:54 pm

Ours is scheduled next week at our pediatrician’s office. It’s a CT law now that all preschool children get a flu shot by Dec. 31 or can’t return to school in January. Although, 50% of my household is down with a cold now, so this basket would help greatly!!!
