    The parade coupon for keebler club cracker is $1 off of CHILI with purchase of club crackers

    1. Iona C.

      That’s odd…

      My Parade coupon doesn’t say chili… it says: “Save $1.00 when you purchase any ONE package of Keebler Club Crackers – 9 oz. or larger, any flavor”

      Does your parade magazine have Bobby Flay on the cover?

  2. Katy

    My Club cracker coupon from the parade paper says save $1 on chili when you purchase any ONE package of Keebler Club Crackers.

    1. jo

      Mine says Chili too.

  3. Kierstien

    Does anyone know if you have to pay tax on the glucose monitors? I have heard you dont have to but wanted to make sure. Thanks!

  4. Angela

    Has anyone done the advil deal yet? I’m curious if the Advil PM is included in the sale price and register rewards.

    1. Kierstien

      i am heading there soon i’ll try to remember to check for ya!

    2. Sue

      I went this morning. Advil PM works!

      1. Angela

        Thank you~!

  5. Susie

    I couldn’t get the Blink coupons to print. Do the ones in this week’s paper match up with this product? Thanks!

    1. Kierstien

      Yes I would say that the $2off coupon from this weeks instert would work they show the exact product in the coupon. HTH!

  6. Mary-SE Minnesota

    I went today and got two of the Aviva Accu-check meters and did not have to pay sales tax, got the Cold Sore Zicam and could not for the life of me find the Vitamin Lip Care for $1.99 with $2 RR anywhere in the store :(

    1. Kierstien

      I looked everywhere in two stores today none of this chapstick anywhere :(

      anyone else find it?

      I should’ve asked but was in a hurry

      1. Sue

        I couldn’t find it either so I asked. It was in a container on the cosmetics counter.

      2. cathy

        Mine was sitting in a container right at the regular check out.

    2. Valerie

      Vitamin Lipcare is located in the makeup area, in small tubs. Ask a clerk as I had too. Variety of flavors.

  7. jenny

    does anyone know how much walmart ky yours and mine is? walgreens has it for 14.99 and the ss 1/31 has a 5.00 off coupon.

  8. pam

    I just worked this deal this morning, no tax.

  9. Kierstien

    Okay went and got 3meters today! Wohoo no tax!!! Only have to get 17more this week!!! lol. does anyone know where i can donate the meters?

  10. Kierstien

    Axe deal: okay I didnt do this today but did look at it at the store. It is valid on ALL axe products excluding the travel size. But deoderant/body wash/hair stuff etc is all included. Deoderant was the only one under $4 i believe it was $3.49 but dont remember exactly. Then you’ll get a print out on how to get the movie tickets to print out online!
    HTH!

  11. Shelly

    Carrie, can you or anyone help me since I’m not a regular Walgreens shopper? My daughter is coming home from Bolivia for a visit (yeah!!!) and needs to take Osteo Bi-Flex back to her Bolivian “grandma” that can’t get it there. Walgreens has it BOGO free this week. So $19.99 for 2 bottles. On couponmom.com I found a $5 per bottle coupon, and it let me print two of them. So, in, your experience, will Walgreens let me use TWO coupons for a BOGO item? And will I have trouble using a $5 internet printed coupon? Just so you know, I do use my laser color printer (with the color on) for high dollar internet coupons, just so they won’t be suspect. If this would work, she’d get 2 bottles for $9 which would be amazing since she was planning to have to spend around $20 for one bottle! Thank you!

    1. Angela

      You should be able to use both manufacturer coupons and still get the store ‘s BOGOF. If the cashier doesn’t understand then ask for the manager and if for some reason that doesn’t work, then you should take your coupons to another store and do the transaction. (This is assuming the manufacurer coupons are for the same items the store has for BOGOF, of course)

      1. Shelly

        Thank you, Angela! I just haven’t liked Walgreens and rarely shop there. But we have a brand new one here in St. Louis Park, and I was impressed with the friendly service the two times I was there. So, I’ll be sure and go to that one to use these 2 manufac. coupons with the BOGO free!

        1. Angela

          It the Walgreens in SLP across from Knollwood Mall? I was at that store 2 weeks ago and thought the employees were very friendly. You shouldn’t need it, but good luck!

          1. Shelly

            Actually, that particular store in considered Hopkins, and sometimes the service isn’t friendly. I’ve had better luck at the Calhoun location, but not last time I tried it. The new one in SLP is at Louisiana & Cedar Lake Road; right across from the Snyders going out of business. Because they’re so new, and because of getting new Snyders customers, it’s been very friendly (although I’ve only been in there twice since they opened several months ago)

    2. jo

      The Hopkins Wags is excellent – I have never ever ever had problems with Q’s or sale items. I refuse to use the Wags on Henn Town Road in EP as they have such nasty cust serv and management seems to be put out when a quest is asked. Like I am interrupting their day. Hello???? Aren’t I, the customer, what their day is about? There is a new Wags opening in EP across from teh mall soon. Hopefully they don;t get trained by the othe Wags. Also the Wags in Bloomington on Old Shakopee Road and France is outstanding as well. Just my 2 cents worth.

      1. Ann

        I am a huge fan of the Hopkins location by Knollwood! They let you use expired rewards up to a week after expiration.

  12. Jessica Schnake

    I printed a coupon and the barcode came out smeared–but the barcode numbers are still readable, will a store still let me use this? (The manufacturer only allows one print for the coupon.) Thanks!

    Jessica

  13. Steph

    Does anyone know if the Accu-Check has the mail in rebate enclosed? There was a $5 q in my paper this morning, and also a $5 RR making this a $10 money maker IF the rebate is enclosed. Anyone else seeing this?

  14. Jeanna

    Ibought the accu check tonight and the rebate said all purchases had to be made by 12/31/09…buumer! Im gonna retunr it since I was just going to donate it.

    1. Steph

      Is there a phone number to call about the rebate? I’ve been reading on other sites that the manufacturer will/should still honor the rebate, regardless of the date.

  15. Iona C.

    The Post cereal coupons didn’t work for me :(

    * If you’re looking for the Vitamin Schtick try near the checkout counter … they have clear tubs near there :) That’s where I found mine.

    1. Valerie

      We have Shaw’s Supermarket on the East Coast. If you purchase the Post Raisin Cereal’s they are $2.49/each, not unless you get 4 of them. Then they ring up at $1.49. Use 3 $2 Post Raisin Cereal coupons, and you can get them for FREE.

      1. Iona C.

        Thanks, Valerie … but I’m a California girl =)

        Sooner or later I’m sure the Post coupons will come in handy though!

  16. Mary

    The keebler cookies were 1.59 at local Target (New Berlin, WI). With a $1/2 coupon they are only 1.09 each.

  17. amy

    I already used my POST coupon prints last week. I just saw some coupons in either a Red Plum or Smart Source insert but now can’t find them. Has anyone seen them in any of their recent or past inserts? Thanks!

  18. amy

    Found it! It was in the Smart Source 1/17. $1.00 of 2 so I’ll get the cereal for $.50 each. Happy with that! Thanks, Carrie! Also, got my sister hooked to coupon shopping with Carrie’s site.

  19. Rhonda

    My Parade magazine had $1.00 off Club, no Chili purchase required.

    Also, watch Walgreen’s clearance while you are there, still a lot of good deals on the clearance for shampoo and conditioners. Including: Biolage, Nexus, Vive, and Neutrogena.

  20. Kristin

    Went to Walgreens in Mankato last night and it was not a pleasant experience. First of all the Assistant Manager chided me because the $2/1 Post internet coupon was for one box and told me coupons shouldn’t exceed the purchase price. Then I used the $2/1 Advil internet coupon and the $2/1 Advil PM from 1/31, and the Advil coupon took it off the Advil PM so when she ran the Advil PM coupon it wouldn’t take it and the Assistant Mgr then told me I can’t use that one. I had a very rude cashier and the Asst. Mgr. was not the greatest either. My husband told her that we were not trying to be difficult and apologized and she said in a snide tone, “Yeah, yeah I know your just trying to get something for free.”

    1. Theresa K.

      kristin,

      Please write a letter to the Manager. No customer should ever be treated that way.

  21. Dawn

    Some where along the way I got a rebate for up to 5.00 for Advil. Doesn’t include pm or sinsus but would make the advil deal even better. Expires 3/31/10.

    1. Angela

      I got an advil rebate form with my Sunday paper (delivered) a fews ago. Do you get the Sunday paper delivered?

  22. Sam

    When you buy multiple items that earn Rewards, do you do multiple transactions? Do you always use your Rewards on things that you would need anyway? I am still new at this. I could use any tips. Thanks!

  23. Jan

    Just tried the Dr. Scholl’s deal and my Wags in Northfield had no RR? Purchased a 10.99 item and used the $1 Wags coupon. Did I do it wrong? Is this expired?

  24. angie

    Does anyone know where I can find the children’s activity book that has the extra coupons in it? I heard there is going to be a Huggies diaper deal starting Sunday. 8.99 jumbo pack plus $3 RR, plus use one printable $2 coupon and a $1 coupon from the activity book. But I can’t find the book anywhere. Whenever I ask they look at me like I just asked for the secret to life!

  25. Melanie

    I just wanted everyone to know that I did the Axe deal and it worked great. You get a print out with your receipt and you go online to print your ticket, there are lots of theaters in the twin cities that take them. You just have to use it by May 10th.
