Ok so tonight I stopped in to see if I could get some more of the RIB mag's .
I looked and looked and looked finally I saw it but it was not like the one I got this morning .
I thought well maybe its a new one .So I picked it up and looked at the coupons .
They epxired back in MARCH I was like what ?
I could not believe they had old ones from March .
I left them of course but was way disappointed in that .
Don't they have to pull old mags ?
Anyway I now know when I see this mag to check the coupon dates .

My stores do the same thing. Once I even pointed out that they had the 2 diff old RIB for sale (right next to the newest one) and that they might want to take them off the shelves. Next time I went there, of course they were still there.

I've bought an old one too. It sucked when I got home and figured that the coupons all expired in June. :sad:

Are in you the Twin Cities? I've done that twice in the last 3 months at 2 different stores. First one I got the March issue didn't realize it until days later when tore the coupons out, returned them. 2 weeks later went to that store and they were back in the magazine rack ripped coupons and all. Then a couple weeks later at another store found RIB different pic on cover, thought I was good. NOOOOOOOOOO:whistle67: this time it was June's issue and here it was Sept. Returned those also. Sent email to CVS regarding this problem. No response.
Sure hope I've learned my lesson:hysterical::hysterical:

They never put out the new RIBs around here in a timely manner. I have been looking for the new one for a couple weeks, since someone here said they found it. I can't find the new issue anywhere and I am mad because I won't be able to use the Vaseline coupon for the sale this week. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

I don't get it ,which has made me realize if I buy any thing that may have a need for an expiration date ,that I will make sure I look for the best buy date .
If they don't pull the old mags then how do I know they pull the expired medicine or food or dairy ?

Maybe you can use this to your advantage? Take it to mean that you can use the expired coupons! How could a manager refuse at that point?

At least you were able to find the mag- I have never seen one in a store down here.

My CVS takes expired CVS coupons, including the ones in the RIB magazine. You should ask yours; maybe they will, too.

Each week we get a list of 3/4 different sections of the stores to spot-check.
