Hi everyone,
I don't shop at Walgreens very often and yesterday (03/25) came across the situation that I might need some guidance on:

I did the Kimberly Clark deal where you get 5RR with purchase of 3 selected items. So I got Kotex and got my 5RR. It was my intention to do the second transaction by purchasing Huggies diapers and using both 5RR and 3off manuf cpn. However, the register said that it cant take both cpns, because 5 RR are well, compliments of Kimberly Clark and 3 off cpn comes from KimbClark too. Anyway, since there was no disclaimer anywhere, do you think it's worth fighting over? I was really lookin forward to a 99cent pack of Huggies.... Did something similar ever happened to you and how did you deal with it?

It's not worth fighting over because it's Walgreens policy. RR are manufacturer coupons and you can't use two coupons on one item. With Walgreens, you must use the same number of coupons to items OR less coupons than you have items.

Will not work: 2 coupons, one item
Will work: 2 coupons, two items (or more)

Also, the Walgreens store coupons from the IVC book and the in-ad coupons do not count in the coupon total.

At Walgreens, you would need to buy a "filler". You cannot have more coupons than you have products - and your RR counts as a coupon. So, if you were buying 3pkg of Huggies and using 3 Huggies coupons and 1 RR, you would need a cheap filler (ie: 1 pencil or 1 candy bar, etc) in order to use that 4th coupon (the RR).

On another note, generally, you cannot use a RR from the same company to buy another RR deal from the same company and get back the RR. I'm not sure about the Kotex deal 'cause I didn't do it...but assuming it's that way, if you bought your filler and paid for the Huggies using the Kotex RR another RR from Huggies would not print because Kotex and Huggies are both Kimberly Clark.

Huggies and Kotex are in the same RR promotion. IF you use the Kotex RR to buy Huggies, you won't get another RR to print.

As stated, you would need a filler item (not attached to a MQ/RR) in order to use your RR + coupons.

Can I use a 7 day in ad coupon, formula check, and a $5 off catalina at walgreens? The catalina says $5 off and manufacturers coupon. I just want to know can i use all three together or is it better to just use the formula check and the catalina together? Which my husband has done before there. Thank you!

I've never had a problem doing that with a coupon and formula check in the same transaction, because the formula check gets rung in as a check payment.

Are the vicks puffs included in the vicks sale. sorry if this has been asked before. I really want to do this deal tonight. TIA! for any help.

This probably is more of a general coupon question, but sinse I had the problem at wags, might as well ask it here! If I have a B1G1 coupon and it does not say that I have to pay for the more expensive item, do I have to? So basically if I have a B1G1 coupon can I get $16 simply ageless and $3 blush and only pay for the $3 blush? If the coupon does not prohibit it? "of equal or lesser value"

Hello,

I've searched for an answer to my question for a couple days with no luck.

I used to get the greatest deals at Walgreens but I was out of couponing for a couple years. Last year I started again but my sales are now different from the rest of the country. I emailed the company and they said I'm in a test market here in Colorado. Our weekly ads have fewer pages than those posted.

Have any of you run into this?

Thanks,

Dana

You've probably already been shopping by now, but several people posted in the RR subforum that they purchased Puffs with Vicks along with Vicks products and got the RR.
