I have one a mile from me - no IPs. the other one is 3 miles away - yes to IPs. The third and 4th are 9 miles away each in different directions - no IPs. Guess which one gets my business.

Hmmm, I have a RA within a mile from me, and they allow IP's, have been in there for the last three weeks in a row using them. I haven't had any problems at all.
The one that I frequent takes IPs, but the manager did tell me today that they're not supposed to, so she's going to stop taking her. I asked her when this was to go in effect, and she told me that technically it already is, but she was giving her "frequent coupon shoppers" now so we're not surprised. I'll have to check the others close by to see what they say.

My RA use to accept IP coupons, but about a month ago they tell me that they no longer take them. You are lucky to still be able to use them.
Just a quick note that we are now allowing the discussion of combining the Rite Aid in-ad coupons with other manufacturer coupons.
It has been confirmed with CS that it should indeed be allowed at the store level.
I have not tried to use both in-ad coupons with manufacturer coupons, but don't think it will work at the store on Pines Road in Shreveport. I tried to use (4) .50/1 coupons on (4) boxes of bandaids last week and was told the only way I could use them was to do (4) seperate transactions. When I questioned this , the cashier called the manager who told me that there was a limit of 1 coupon per transaction. ( I ask her if she was referring to like coupons and she said ONE coupon period) She went on to tell me of a cashier who got fired for taking more than one coupon per transaction and another who was docked a weeks pay ( didn't think that was legal). I told her that other stores were accepting more than one coupon and she said that they were not suspose to and would get in trouble when "security checks those transactions"). She said it makes her store look bad because they follow the rules, so they do seperate transactions so the customer can use more than one coupon. So I did it her way and paid 58 cents 3 times with my debit card since I only had 60 cents on me. I have been couponing at Rite-Aid almost a year now and have never encountered this before even at this same store. Does anyone know anything about this rule. This just really blew my mind!

You are dealing with some very poorly trained people. Take what they said with a grain of salt. You can not use 2 of the same coupon on 1 item but you can use a million coupons if you are buying a million items. That being said if they are going to give you grief each time you will need to either call in and complain or go to the better store that knows what they are doing.
Thanks for the heads up. I do have a quick question if anyone knows the answer. When I use 2 coupons on a B1G1 free item the second coupon never seems to scan at RA. I have walked out of the store twice and looked over my bill and had to go back in and they did give me the cash for the coupons but is the register set up to not take the coupon on the second free item? I am new at this but I think it's ok to use 2 coupons on a B1G1 free item right?

yes it is ok to use 2 coupons with a bogo sale. odd that the coupon is not scanning at you store. though some cashiers may give grief.
My RA Mgr. at Trooper Rd and West Germantown Pike in Pa told me on Sat that they will no longer accept Ip's. She was just giving me a heads ups but it was sad news:(
