They all beep at walmart but they usually read coupon , then put it through.
Used 28 of the unilever ones the other day ( getting some stuff for other family members also ).
Cashier said she could enter them manually but since I had a lot she would need managers approval first.
Manager checked coupons and then checked what I bought , then said okay and told cashier to key them in manually.

yes, they beep at Wal-Mart because they begin with a 9. I have to go through the spiel with every cashier. It's exhausting. Why they put these out with a 9 barcode, I've no clue.

That is such a good idea! Good for you.I know I can get a ton of dog treats for free or really cheap half the time and I don't because we'll never use that many. I always get like 5 packs and that lasts us months. I think I'll start buying more when I can get them so cheap like this and do the same.

I also noticed the REGULAR price (pre-RC) for my electrasol 20 cts came up as 2/$4.49!!!!!! So, unadvertised special - and no sign either!

Also, cashier was pissy by the end and applied 2 of the pedigree BOGO Qs to the dentastix even though the MQs were only good for Dentastix so BOGO Qs should have gone against the dentabone/jumbo bones. But, since I got a better price than when I had my RC and it was late, etc, I did not say anything or argue the point

Can you use more than one of the J&J $5/3 in 1 transaction?

[megatans]

Are you guys using more that 1 identical Publix Q (Ex: J&J $5/3) in the same transaction, or are you breaking them up into multiple transactions?

Just wondering, I usually do multiple transactions. Would be much easier if I can do more than one identical publix Q per transaction. Would save me from stopping at publix so much.

Thanks so much!!!

I did multiple PQs in 1 transaction. The verbiage says one per purchase but my cashiers usually interpret that as per the given set of items as opposed to 1 per transaction verbiage. YMMV :shrug7:
