Re: Bonus Bucks 5/9 - 5/15 My stores here in Delaware appear to calculate the requirement for earning Bonus Bucks based on the sale price (not the regular shelf price), but don't penalize you for coupons. So today I did the Lysol pourables deal and bought 5 x $2=$10 to get the $3 BB. I found some bottles with 33% more of the blue version so grabbed them (would have preferred Lemon, but 33% extra is better). I had 2 $1 coupons and 3 .50 coupons that doubled, so I ended up paying $5 and getting the $3 BB (these were regularly priced $3.49 each). However, at the register my catalina didn't print so I went to customer service. While walking over I noticed that the items rang up at $3.49 instead of $2. The guy was very nice and went to the aisle with me and agreed they should have been $2 and earned the BB. He grabbed a lemon variety and it worked at the register to give me the BB and he gave me back what they had overcharged. At first I was worried I'd get **** because of getting the bonus sized bottles, but it was no problem at all. However, I would have been peeved if I didn't notice the error until getting home. I really am fortunate enough to have pleasant sales people at my grocery and drug stores here - I cringe from hearing some of your horror stories! They also paid me $.51 each to buy 2 Colgates today - on sale for $.99 and I had $.75 coupons double to $1.50. Sometimes the register seems to catch that and cap it at the sale price, but not today - yippee!! |
