    HOT Cvs Adidas Deal Nightmare

    I went to get my CVS monthly deals today and it turned out to be the worst experience ever at CVS. I picked up 3 adidas deodrants for my first transaction, for my second I grabbed more monthly freebies that would total my ecb amount to 14.97 to roll my adidas ecbs. When I checked out with the 3 adidas deodrants I gave the girl my 3 free adidas coupons and she then asked the assistant man. a question. The ass. manager then told me I wasn't aloud to do that and she made a big stink in front of all the customers. She said with a chuckle "These are already free, we don't take free coupons for a freebie". Then she told me she would only take one coupon for all 3 because it stated 1 coupon per purchase. I told her "look I have done this many of times", I then left all my junk up at the counter and said to my son "c'mon, lets go to a better CVS". I drove a few blocks to the next CVS and got a ticket on the way for no seatbelt (I was so ticked that I forgot to put my seatbelt on) Anyways I get to the next CVS and I ask for the manager. The assistant manager was on duty and I explained the situation, he said sure you can use the coupons. They only bad thing was they didn't have any deodrant in stock. I wasted my time and precious gas today. When I arrived home I called CVS corprate and they were wonderful. They were totaly p'd off about the whole ordeal and told me that the assistant manager was rude and would get a talk. I have been shopping at this particular CVS for over a year and never had any couponing problems. It's to bad that my favorite cvs store finally became my least favorite.

    Actually most of the cvs store near me don't have any adidas deodrants in stock yet. It's not a biggie because it's a monthly deal so it won't be over until June 1st. Just ask your cvs when they expect to get a shipment of adidad deo. or ask for a raincheck.

    My store gets their truck on Wednesdays - so I went in today. They were not done stocking shelves from the truck - but when I asked for it someone went to the back and came up with 2 - I bought both of them. I found it funny that when I asked if 2 was all they got the assistant manager says "well you are only allowed 3" - I know what he ment that the monthly ebc's is limit 3 - but the way he said it made me think "oh - I am only allowed to buy 3". Then the clerk tried to tell me I could not use 2 coupons because it says "limit one per purchase" on the coupon. I tried telling her I am purchasing 2 - but she seemed to think it ment 1 per transaction. Once I told her to void one off and I'd purchase them seperately she did take both coupons - but was obviously not happy with me.
