CVS ~ Question: Coupon Limit?

[sbfearnow]

Just wondering if anyone has an issue using too many of the same coupons or if there is a policy about using multiples of the same? I went into CVS yesterday to start this weeks deals and I was going to do the 3/10 with 2 ECBS back on items such as Pro Clinical, Wisp, Softsoap, Speed Stick. The only coupons I could find were 3 Pro Clinicals and I matched that up with 3 CVS coupons however, they would only take one MFG and one CVS and I couldnt use the rest...Does anyone else have this problem? Im also wanting to do the Fuze 10/10 get 5 ECBs but I would use 10 .75/1 coupons so I didnt want to go in and have them rejected to. What should I do?

I didn't think they could do that. It's usually one coupon per item and you should be able to use as many as you'd like, the only catch is I think that the store might be able to put a limit on how many items you actually buy in order for stop people from clearing the shelf. But if they're letting you buy 10 items, they should be letting you use 10 coupons. If I were you I would call corporate. Ideally, I would call corporate while still in the store trying to use my coupons so that the problem can be corrected immediately.

Thanks! I thought about going to a different store and then asking for the manager if it still didnt work. IDK why I wouldnt be able to use all of them.

I had that problem with a cvs coupon. i had two of the kotex u cvs coupons and 2 manufaturer coupons. It scanned the manufaturer couponsbut only one of the cvs ones. He just told me that i couldnt use that one and handed it back to me. so meh i dunno why its like that makes no sense.

Where the CVS coupons store coupons? Those start with a 4. Most store coupons will say limit 1 per customer, so you can't use more than 1 in the same transaction
(they beep).
OR were they actually Manuf coupons [start w/5] that had the CVS logo on them? Then that would be using 2 coupons on 1 item. But even if they were all manf coupons, they should have let you use 1 coupon per item, so they should have accepted 3 Pro-Clinical coupons.

They are on an end cap with the health and beauty. you can get the coupons loose or buy a magazine (not sure the name right off hands) for .99- there are about 15 different coupons and they all start with 4....It does say one coupon per customer....so ill use something other than 3 of the pro clinical toothpaste.

So, best to split your orders when using them.

I did such tonight...i used 1 mfg and 1 cvs for pro clinical, 1 mfg and 1 cvs for Irish spring and wanted to do the same for soft soap...it took the CVS but then the mfg said limit reached?

Sometimes manufacturer coupons have beeped and said that. When i worked their it scanned and said that on one and it was the first coupon i scanned! In the end i just manually put it in. Sometimes the registers are half stupid I think. BUt if its a dumb cashier they might be confused and not wanna take it. BUt in my situation it was the first coupon i scanned at all so i knew the register was wrong but the only way to put it in was manually because it wouldnt scan.
