I bought $99 worth of stuff for $24.11 after coupons. I always hand the manufacturer coupons to the cashier first then the store coupons. This week I had the assistant manger ringing me out so that made me a little more nervous. But she was awesome. As I was unloading my cart I told her I tried really hard to make sure all my items match the coupons so I hope the register doesn't beep at me too many times! Then when I handed her the walgreen coupons I played dumb and said oh, do you need these too? Are they really coupons? She said I know it's hard to tell sometimes. The register only beeped 3 times. (twice to flag her to write the price for the BOGO coupons and once because I did have the wrong item for the walgreens coupon and she asked if I wanted someone to bring the right item up to the register.)

The second time I tried it, I gave them my manufacturer coupons first and then gave the Wag's coupons last and things worked perfectly. I find that if I hand the cashier all my coupons, they ring them in whatever order they want which can mess up the anticipated deals we are striving for. :) So now I hold onto the Wag's coupons and give them after my manufacturer coupons have been rung up.

It made me a little frustrated. They knew I had all the coupons and then went back and took off one of the Mfger coupons to accomadate for the other.

It has something to do with the way their registers function. The Wag's coupon doesn't make it b1g1 free...technically it's not free on the Wag's coupon...that only takes $3 off per package. However, you should be entitled to use the manufacturer coupon for b1g1 free with the Wag's coupon...then your pads would be free. Does that make sense? Good luck! :) Angela~If you hand them the manufacturer coupons first and then the Wag’s coupons, you will get them for free. It has something to do with the way their registers function.

I found a very limited selection of a few eye shadows, lipstick and blush. The eye shadows were the only ones that would make the make up free with both coupons, and like I said it was a small selection. Someone previously mentioned (sorry I don't remember who!) that the sales at Wags weren't well marked. I found the same thing, most of the sales were not listed on the shelf. I had to rely on my flyer which was kind of discouraging! The Finish was listed for like 6.00+ dollars, but rang up as 3.49. So I am definitely going to have my flyer in hand at all times, and plan based on that not what I find on the shelves. Julie Andrea- the Revlon coupon was just for a special “Matte” type of make up.

Use the $1 coupon from the online coupons and you have free bulbs. I found though, you can only print 2 coupons. Anyone know how I can print more?

First I give them my MFR coupons and then I show them any Walgreens coupons. This has usually worked just fine for me. The only issues I have had are with the B1G1 coupons/deals. Dawn and Sandi - I never found a $2 off 1 coupon. Only $1 off one and $2 off two for the Johnson's baby. Check out Carrie's list here and look under "baby" for more coupons: http://www.pocketyourdollars.com/2010/01/rainbow-foods-copps-pick-n-save-coupon-match-up-13-1910/ - these might be a better deal at Rainbow this week (many items on sale for $2.50) Kathy – I found that you have to give Walgreens your coupons in a specific order for them to work.

(It actually was $4.19 for a 2-pack.) Thus, (2) packages of (2) toothbrushes w/ the in-ad coupon-$2.00 off each, B1G1 free coupon and $1.00 off coupon gave me a net price of .$39 cents for (4) toothbrushes....not free like Carrie requires but close enough for this shopper!

I also realized Wal doesn't mark their sale items well and even if they aren't marked they still ring up according to the sale price in the flyer. I always carry the flyer with me. Anyone else had the problem with using both coupons for the Viactiv?
