I emailed RA regarding the BOGO issue about 9 months ago. They responded that I COULD indeed use a BOGO manufacturer's coupon with a RA BOGO promotion.

Anyone know what happened to the Reach floss/mouthwash rebate offer for June? I could've sworn it was there but now I can't find it in the list.

Mars Single Size Candy Bars, (FREE/MM)
Sale: BOGO
Use: 1 X BOGO coupons (5-17RP_
SCR ():N/A
Total/Math: Buy 2 and use BOGO coupon=FREE, if you have enough coupons and use the 5/2RA coupon you could potentially get $5.00 in overage (applied to other products)
**The limit on this coupon is .85 cents to they may end up costing a couple pennies if your candy bars are more than the limit**

I found this blinkie at Shaws in ME and it is up to $1 but in our Hannaford stores they are up to .85. I was given a hard time at first on using it with a BOGO. I was told it was double dipping. The manager I go to when I have issues came out and said " sorry I can't do it it's double dipping. I can't let you do it you're not going to win on this one." I explained how the BOGO worked and that all the other stores would let me do it. I put them away and went to the bathroom before leaving to go to work. As I was walking out the door he said " Well maybe you have a point. I'll call the district manager." I said I needed to be at work but I'd check back in a couple hours later. When I went back I was told it was okay to do it. He said I wasn't going to win. HA HA HA !!!!

I called to ask this question as well yesterday. (Not because I was angry about the candy, but so I would know for the future.) I had used BOGO coupons a couple of weeks ago with no trouble. I was told also that it was allowed and that there should not be a variation between stores on it. My guess is that there is not a clear policy on it and people just do what they think is right. :shrug7:I think with jobs being a bit harder to find right now, no-one wants to get in any trouble by doing the wrong thing.

I went to a very coupon friendly RA store this morning and picked out 8 Dove single chocolate. My BOGO blinkies from local Safeway have picuture of them. Somehow, the register kept on beeping because no item was found. The manager later gave me .85X4 in cash. I wish I'd tried with some M & M to find out whether the q's could have worked for other kinds of candies. Well, this is it for this week. BTW, RA stores have very limited Aveeno sunblock stock. I need to buy my 3rd one sometime this week at another store.

I was at my Rite Aid today using a Mars BOGO Coupon on 2 snickers. The casheir accepted the BOGO coupons without questions asked.

Overheard another casher reminding him that "the BOGO coupon max value is .85". This tells me he knows the coupon too well, I guess alot of customers are bringing them in and they are just honoring it.

Thus, we get 2 free Candy Bars with their BOGO sale and the BOGO Coupon. I guess Rite Aid is in such poor financial condition, they are just taking any coupon to make a sale and will get reimburse from the manufacturer.

Before, they would refuse to accept a BOGO coupon with their BOGO sale.

I'm going back tomorrow with my stash of coupons. lol

I'm just wondering if this could be right.

In this weeks ad there is a $2/1 RA Visine coupon.
In the 3-15 RP there is a $3/1 Visine A or AC coupon (exp. 6-30-09)
The Visine AC is $4.99.
So free after both coupons with possible $.01 overage YMMV.

Visine is a participating brand for SCR #40, get $10 back when you spend $25 or more on Johnson & Johnson products.

Could I do this 6 different times (since the RA coupon is limit 1) to get the rebate for a $10MM?

$4.99 X 6= $29.94 gets you over $25 needed for SCR #40
- $2.00 X 6= $12.00 RA coupons
- $3.00 X 6= $18.00 Man. coupons
- $10.00 SCR #40

$29.94 - $12.00= $17.94 - $18.00= +.06 - $10.00= + $10.06

Please let me know if this is right!

The problem I see with this is that the RA coupon is for original regular visine and the MQ is for visine A/AC so this would not work unless you found a coupon that said any visine and without looking in the DB I'm not sure if there is one.

If your doing the Mars BOGO and your RA makes you really BUY ONE then watch for thie 2/$! specialy marked pkgs. I found these and really cleaned up. You end up with 3 for $ .50

I used 9 BOGO blinkie Q's for the Mars candy bars today without any problem. They all beep, but the manager was standing right there and instructed the cashier to just put them in manually. I did not have any problem using them at all....The candy bars were .88 each, so, I paid .03 per candy bar. Pretty good deal!
