Get free 8×10 photo print at Walgreens for three days

Taking photos nowadays is easier than ever, thanks to the ubiquitous smartphones at the ready to snap a picture.  Everyone now has an endless stream of photos in the palm of their hands — everything from selfies at special events to silly photos with friends and commemorating important occasions. 

However, there once was a time when you had to take your film to the drugstore to be developed — in the hopes there would be a few good ones to possibly frame. Not anymore, now you can easily pick out the photos you want to keep or delete with just a quick tap of the finger.

And there are always a few favorites in your camera roll worth printing for posterity — perfect for framing for the home or office or to give as a gift.

One of the best places to print your photos is still at Walgreens! And, fortunately, the popular drugstore regularly offers complimentary photos. 

You must have a Walgreens account to redeem the offer.

Photos are usually ready for pick up within an hour of ordering. If you order after hours, they will be ready the following day.

Here’s the latest FREE photo offer from Walgreens:

IMPORTANT: Order the photos online at Walgreens.com or via the Walgreens app and then pick them up in-store. (The FREE photo cannot be redeemed in-store — only online.)

From April 5 to 7, 2026, Walgreens is offering a FREE 8×10 photo print ($4.49 value) at participating locations — use promo code RAINYPRINT at checkout online. No purchase necessary. 

Limit one photo per household, per account. 

Always double-check you have the right size photo and number of photos in your cart. Plus, be sure you have successfully applied the promo code before checking out.

Pick up your photo at the photo counter at the Walgreens location you selected. You’re not done yet, you still need to check out at a register. 

You must have your order scanned at the register. Don’t worry the total will be $0 — no surprise taxes or fees. If you don’t scan it, you will receive endless e-mails reminding you to pick up your photo(s).
