Default ?? for those who have special ordered Excedrin

I have a couple of questions for those of you who have special ordered the Excedrin Back & Body Pain that is $0.51.

Can you tell us how many pills are in each package? How many packages are in a case? Do the packages say "trial" anywhere on them?

I know that many of you have done this with no issues, but my commissary likes to nit-pick my coupons. If there is even a HINT of the word "trial" on the packaging, they will give me all kinds of carp about taking a coupon on it. And this is even if the coupon doesn't have any restrictions on it regarding size!

Anyway...any info you can give regarding this would be most appreciated!

Default Re: ?? for those who have special ordered Excedrin

i've not ordered them but looks like they are 6ct
Excedrin Back & Body Trial Size 6 Count

the COUPON wording is the key and it says Excedrin Pain Reliever Product, Any

you might consider talking to your store director or emailing DECA if the director doesn't agree that ANY means ANY.

Default Re: ?? for those who have special ordered Excedrin

Ok, so I wrote that company PM fan linked to and told them I wanted to buy an entire case.

They told me a case contains 24 containers.


I'm hoping this information is correct. If it isn't, someone please let me know. I have to buy the entire case at my store, so accurate info is important!

This is why I need to know for sure too!

My commissary is a bit behind on coupons--they will do it (let me use a coupon that says "Any" on "any", give me overage, etc), but they give me carp about it.

I have written to DeCA and have emails stating that these things are OK, but the store admin and customer service managers are a bit stubborn and don't seem to like couponers much.

Default Re: ?? for those who have special ordered Excedrin

On my last trip, the cashier got nervous when she saw that the excedrin was .51 and the coupon was for $2.00. She sweetly appologized and said she needed to call a supervisor. Supervisor said she used a magnifying glass, and no where on the coupon did it exclude trial sizes, so she handed the coupon back to the cashier, and said no problem. Many thanks to the poster who found out that a case has 24. That really helps. Now I have a question. I have seen from prior posts that some have gotten single size Splenda with overage. My commissary has a space for them, but I have NEVER seen any in stock. Is anyone still getting these?
