Have a Walgreens Question? Ask it here

[ladyspl]

The Walgreens in my city is less than a year old, so I'm a Wags newbie. I stopped in tonight to transfer a rx and get my $25 Gc for doing so, and picked up their April savings coupon booklet. Cool, very cool. However, there are different coupons printed on each side of the pages, so if I want to use the coupon on one side today, does that mean I forfeit the coupon on the other side for future use? ie the pull-ups coupon is on the back of the lysol healthy touch coupon, both are coupons i will use, but only want to use the lysol one this week. Do they just scan the coupon but leave it in the book, or do i have to have 2 books to keep from loosing good coupons?

thanks for any help!

Some people's stores will just enter the IVC# but my stores make me detatch them. Weird thing is, the store manager just wants the number, but all of his cashiers make me remove the coupons from the book. I usually just grab two coupon books at the beginning of the month. I wouldn't worry too much about it. At my stores they always have stacks of the coupon books all the way through the month.

I think I grab a coupon book every trip LOL...I know it's bad.

Welcome to Wags!

All my stores scan the coupon and leave it in the book. I grab a couple at the beginning of the month and just use them over and over. If for some reason your store makes you clip the coupons, then you will need to get multiple books, but most stores do not and they don't need the coupons to send in to be redeemed.

Quick question, I have a Fusion razor coupon to get it free and a $1 off Fusion shaving cream, I also have a buy a Fusion shaving cream get a body wash free coupon. Could I use them on the sale now B1G1 50% off?

You can use one coupon per item purchased and one qualifer must be purchased for each free item wyb Q.

Fusion razor - free w/Q
Fusion shaving cream $1/1 ; qualifer for the free razor
Body Wash- free w/ Q

You will need to purchase another Fusion shaving cream to have enough qualifiers to use the free bodywash Q. You could use another 1/1 on the shaving cream if you have it, to reduce your out of pocket.

Does that make sense?

So the razor wouldn't count as the Buy 1 even though my coupon is free? Thanks!! I will get the hang of this sooner or later.

Is Walgreens not allowing Black & White internet printed coupons any longer, or is just up to the store manager?

Today, I tried to purchase 2 packs of Huggies Diapers & use 2 of the $3.00 IP coupons. I had 2 printable coupons, one I had printed in color & the other in black. The beauty dept cashier accepted the color one fine, but called the manager to ask about the black printed coupon. He looked at it & stated the printable coupons had to have watermarks on each of them; therefore refusing to accept the coupon. I explained that the coupons have different dot-scan codes & numbers...and it wasn't a copy...I just printed it in black ink only. (Farmington, MO store)

So, I checked my other IP coupons & none of them have "watermarks".
Are all IP coupons supposed to have the watermarks? If so, how can I change my printer settings to do this? I just don't like to waste my color ink, that's why I mostly print IP coupons in Black ink.

Thanks for any help!

brandyinmissouri, it's completely up to the store manager to accept or deny IP coupons. Many won't even accept them when printed in color these days, due to all the fraudulent IPs people have been passing around. I would recommend speaking directly with the store manager at your local store and asking him exactly what his rules are for accepting IP coupons. Also, take the IPs that you have and ask him to explain to you what a watermark looks like (since none of the ones you have seem to have a watermark). Maybe he will see that this "watermark" rule may not be accurate for all IP coupons.
Another thing I've done in areas where IPs are troublesome is to keep the entire printed page, with the link/site where they were printed, so that the SM could verify them if necessary. I only did that once or twice and they decided that I was using legitimate IPs and didn't "need" to see the entire sheet. I'm assuming that is because it held up the line while I cut them out to redeem. LOL.
If you can't get the information you need from the SM, try calling the district office and speak with the district manager. The number should be in your local phone book, listed with all the other Walgreens stores.
HTH.

I'll have to follow your advice & find out the exact details for IP coupon usage. The manager who refused the IP today stated that only IP coupons with the watermarks are acceptable. The coupon scanned just fine as it should, but I guess the black printable coupon being used with a color printed coupon looked odd to the cashier. She voided the coupon & only accepted the color printed one. I took the black IP to Walmart & used it just fine. The manager did tell me to try & print it again in color...but since it was from coupons.com there is a limit of only 2 to print.
This is my first time being not allowed to use an IP coupon at Walgreens.

Thanks again for the helpful response, I really appreciate it.
