HUGGIES Wipes NOT a bath and body product?

[zonie_chick81]

I went to Target today to try to use the huggies coupons on wipes, I was told that it had to be the item pictured on the coupon. Knowing that is incorrect I tried explaining to the supervisor that it says any and according to email (that some of you received from kimberly clark as well as HCW email from them) that it can be used towards the wipes. The sup was not too nice about it and refused all the coupons I had, so I called guest relations complained about the store and the sup refusing to take any coupons form me and they called the store I went to and told me that the sup only said that it was 1 per transaction, um then why would I be calling?? So I told the rep on the phone (I was completely nice to the rep I talked to) that they flat out refused ALL coupons I had with me (not just the huggies) and I walked out of there with nothing but a toy for my son. They are going to send me some coupons to use at the store for my inconvience and also are supposd to be mailing me a copy of their coupon policy (per my request) I will have to try this at another Target. Sad thing is that I dont shop target all that often and this situation does not make me want to go back. Hopeully I will have better luck at another target

It seems like Target's are all on high alert about coupons, because of the fake toy coupon issue. All three times that I have been to a Target in the last two weeks, each and every one of my coupons has beeped. EVERY SINGLE ONE. So annoying - but, at least I only had issues actually using them on one of those trips.

But, bearing that in mind, I probably wouldn't take these coupons there, but rather to Walmart.

I am in Raleigh and if you have a Kroger near you they have the larger packages of wipes (40 count) on sale for $1 through Saturday so you would get more wipes for free and would not have to worry about Target.

That's funny because I called them about a year ago and asked the same question. The response from CS was "where else would you use it, if not on your body?" You may want to verify again.

If you still have it, you may want to cut out and save the ad that was next to the Huggies B&B and Huggies wipes coupons in the 06-22 S. It's got a picture of a baby having his leg wiped and another of a baby having his mouth wiped. There's a bathtub with the words "Bath-like freshness all day long!" and "Try the washcloth-like texture of Huggies baby wipes". That ad strongly suggests to me that K-C expects wipes to be used for bathing the whole body and that they WANT consumers to think of wipes as bath and body products. The ad may come in useful when trying to make a point with a cashier/manager.

That is a good idea! Or tell them to turn on their tv's and watch the huggies wipes commercial with the rubber ducky who is :frown: b/c he doesn't get to take a bath w/his little buddy b/c the mom uses wipes to clean him all day
