walgreens- Lubriderm Money Maker

[pharmjenn]

Has anyone tried printing the Lubriderm coupons recently. I was able to print on Weds night, but tried 3 computers (different from previous ones) and different email addresses. I get all the way through and it tells me I have already printed my allottment. I haven't been able to find the Almay, so was counting on a couple more Lubriderm to roll some expiring RR.

I had the same trouble with the Lubriderm IP, so I just ordered some coupons from a clipping site.

Basically they told me to not count on getting the item in the month of November because of shelf-clearing and order backlogs.

Wow! you got a good store if they deduct the value of RR on RCs.

I understand your concern on these kind of deals. I see part of the problem is the massive pre-ordering of these RR items, average of 50 to 100 per customer, WAG must be raking all the profits if they can fulfill all these orders. That is good for their business to sell a lot. BUT, hopefully, they also make sure all stores are given their share of stocks instead of just a few customers they want to satisfy while driving a lot more customers away because many of their stores are OOS for the whole month of RR promo.

Hopefully, a WAG upper management staff sees this problem and do something about it so everyone can find stocks at their store.

I agree. I have heard but have no proof locally of a manager ordering 200 of a RR item for one customer. Whether the item is donated or not, I find that excessive. KWIM?

I printed mine Thurs morning and it worked out fine. Purex gave me that message tho on Wed nite. Maybe Wed was a bad time?

Holy. cats. How would someone even have enough time to do 200 of one deal? I'm a SAHM so generally I can take some extra time at the stores but 200 you'd have to stop for bathroom and lunch breaks lol.

If I'm not mistaken I think it was for one of the deals where you have to buy 5 of something to get the RR. That'd still be 40 transactions, though. There just aren't many deals that I'd go that overboard on. I'm all for a deal and raking in the RR but there is such a thing as TOO MUCH! In fact, there is seldom a time when I do a deal more than once or twice.

Has anyone done this today or yesterday? I want to know it will work before trying it again. I did it on Monday and Tuesday, but it was after that when people started saying they had issues.

Thanks!

I did it this morning, around 9am Pacific with no problems. Wasn't a MM, as I only had 1 coupon left, but had some RR to roll and it was still the best deal.

i did this deal today athe walgreens in kingwood texas off northpark rd. It worked for me.. used 3 $2/1 plus 3 wags $1/1 on the 6oz and got $8 rr back..

I too am a SAHM- and have 2 children ( and myself) where lubriderm is the ONLY ltion that keeps our skin from gettin so dry it cracks and bleeds in the winter. I would GLADLY do this deal 2X at 3 or 4 stores... just can't find it in stock... I understand wanting overage, but being a shelf clearer is another! ...IDK ... just my own thoughts..
