Thx! Im <SO> done with buying dimetapp and Robitussin though.... I dont think my wags WANTS me to buy it :)

When they had this deal a few wks ago, and there was a $3/1 rob coupon, I think the majority of us, went umm.... 'to town', kwim?

Its still a money maker with the $2/1's (for robitussin too, right), but my wags could possibly frown with 3 IP's of the same kind in one transaction :)

Glad it worked for ya though!!

How were you able to get the coupon to print with a different security code? All the coupons have to have a different security code. I tried to print 2 but it is the same code, therefore I can't use both of them.

After printing the first coupon, I closed all windows relating to the coupon then clicked the link again & started over completing with same info (I use autofill, saves me a lot of time on my IE). Prints a unique coupon with seperate security/bar codes. >Repeat for 3rd cpn< Can't use the back tab or print several copies of the one coupon. You have to start completely over to get that different security code.

I was in that majority . Needed milk, sugar & paper towels, so this MM came in handy this week & thought I would take advantage of this deal at least once, lol. I really hate passing up a deal.

Is there a $2/1 Robitussin, thought it was $1/1? Of course using a $2/1 works the same way with Robitussin as the Dimetapp, but I was unable to find that coupon. My Walgreens is actually stocked with Robitussin and only had the 3 Dimetapp I bought :frown:.

what is the expire date on the cat from dimatapp? I might have to roll some rr's so they dont expire? Do you remember?

Weren't the Bounty Basic paper towel on sale for .89 with the 7 day Q in the ad on page 8?

[strawberry1997]

I tried to close all windows fill out the info and print more another q but I got the same security code on both. I did however fill out one for dh and got a diff. code for him. But can I use two q's one with his name as the bearer and one with my name as bearer in the same transaction?
