Have a Walgreens Question? Ask it here

This is not necessarily a Walgreens question, but since I spend most of my time here and will use these coupons there, this is where I thought I would post.

I have a buy any Glade scented oil candles refill pack and get a scented oil candles tin holder free (up to $3.99) coupon from an insert and a
Buy any Glade scented oil candles tin holder and get a scented oil candles refill pack free (up to $3.49) from All You mag. Can I use them together and get both items free????

Today I went to Walgreens for the Conagra Deal. I bought 2 healthy choice frozen dinners, 3 hunts puddings, and 1 healthy choice mixer. I had $1/3 q for the pudding, $1/2 q for the frozen dinners & $1/1 q for the h.c. mixer and I wanted to use a $5 RR and a $2.50 RR. 6 items & 5 coupons - should have been okay but she did my RR's last and they both beeped. The cashier tried them twice and then said she thought it was because my coupons were somehow making my 3 puddings count as 1 item and my 2 frozen dinners as 1 item. There was no one else in the store so I went back and grabbed two pocket tissues (.29 ea. one of my favorite fillers) - she added them to my order and then the RR's both went through. Has anyone else had this problem with coupon #'s and item #'s? Or have another explanation for why this didn't work until I added two more items?

the 1/3 coupon attaches itself to 3 items, the 1/2 attaches itself to 2 items. your coupons counted for 6 items which is what you had. The RR went thru after you added the tissues because the coupon count and item count were the same.
Anytime a x/3 or x/2 coupon is used it attaches itself to that many items

the answer was yes.....however since Walgreens discontinuted the ESR there will be no more IVC coupons

So I saw that pepsi products will be 5/$12 or buy 4 get the 5th free in the preview of 5/10/09. I have a coupon of buy 3 get 1 free. Can I use this along with the in store ad to get the 4th free as well?

Confused? Me too.

Yeah the Pepsi q and also the q's in that pink revlon book I'd posted about are the ones I'm talking about. They're listed as "Walgreens Instant Value Coupons". I know the Pepsi one says "not valid with any other offer"...that's why I asked.

havn't seen those sorry...........do they have bar codes like regular mfg coupons? or just 0's and a 4 digit number at the end?

I have close to 20 WG in a reasonable distance from my home & work. I only have trouble with the closest that they refuse to take 2 RR's as payment for the same transaction. So I have to break it up into 4 or 5 transactions. I only spend a few cents more out of pocket, but it holds everyone up and I feel weird. The manager has flat out told me if I use more than one RR in a transaction it is coupon fraud. I understand coupon logic so I know it will take say a $2 RR and a $4.50 in the same transaction as long as I have 2 non-coupon items.

My questions are:
What effect does negative survey responses have on store operations?
Does WG care about ADS (average dollar sale)?
What about UPT (units per transaction)?

Making me do more transactions is just counterproductive for everyone.
