Mfr Q and IVC?

[DanielleIvy]

I just wanted to clarify what types of coupons you can combine. I'm fairly new and want to minimize as many issues as I can.

I know you can use RRs (I'm talking about $$ OYNO, not for a specific item) with a mfr Q. I thought you can use any Walgreens coupon with a mfr Q (provided the total doesn't exceed the item cost & you don't have more coupons than items), but a cashier told me otherwise. Now I know cashiers and stores vary in what they will and will not do, but I just want to know what generally is allowed.

I thought you can use a mfr Q and an IVC or a Walgreens Q from their weekly ad for the same item. Today, I was specifically trying to use the $3/1 Infusium from May All You and the $2/1 Infusium May IFC. The cashier told me that I couldn't use both because both were Manufacturer coupons. Now, the IVC does say manufacturer coupon at the bottom but it starts with a 0, and I'm assuming it doesn't need to be turned in. She wouldn't even try to scan it. I can see because it does say mfr coupon on the bottom and just want to make sure I wasn't cheated and at the same time, wasn't trying to do anything wrong! Thanks in advance for you help!

I'd think it'd be up to the store manager. I have always used the IVC's and the MQ's together if neither has a stipulation that it can't be used in conjunction with any other coupon.

I did the exact deal you're referring to with no problems, so I'd say just wait and go when another cashier is on duty.

i use them together , i give mfc first in case it makes it lower than the ivc price... cuz then sometimes it wont take it..i just say oh almost for got to use this and pull out the ivc... my stores will use the ivc first if they see you have it.. just an fyi

the 5/9 AD states "Look for more savings in sunday coupons"

Take the ad in and SHOW HER.

they are expecting you to use the coupon


Ugh. I dislike cashiers who can't follow simple rules:sad:

You can use a MQ with Walgreens Qs. There are those rare times when an IVC is programmed weird and you'll need a filler to use both. But, there is nothing wrong with using both.
Also, a RR is considered a MQ, so if you want to use a RR + a MQ, you will need a filler item.

So it IS policy to accept both Qs? I have just recently ran into this problem at my local WAGS. The store manager has apparently informed all of the cashiers NOT to take a MQ stacked w/ the WAGS IVC. (I live in a small town with only one WAGS so trying another store isn't an option for me.) I am wondering should I try to call corporate about this store not accepting both Qs or am I just out of luck? Any advice on what to do would be appreciated. Thanks!
