I know you’ve be waiting on this info, because having two couponer-friendly Walgreens would be the bees knees. Had a long talk with Ms. Katrina Brown, the Lisle store manager, who was aware of most of the issues, but not all. She assured me that she is very much in favor of not only using coupons and placing special orders, but is more upset over the way any customers were treated when using those coupons. She expects her staff to treat every customer the way they would want to be treated – no exceptions, no excuses.
Having said this, Ms. Brown wants my readers to know that she will be ordering a minimum of 200 of the Luster White toothpaste for the small MM 4/10-16 (basically just to extend our RRs two weeks). If you wish to place an order, please call 630/353-0252 to speak with her or her Executive Manager, Bill, who is fully authorized to place as many orders as needed. She’s asking that you give her store another chance and guarantees that you will not be disappointed. She is thinking of opening the store one hour early on a couple of days, so that we can have the registers to ourselves! No having to let “normal” people cut in. Everything set up and ready to go. I think this is an excellent idea, so please call and place your orders if you will be looking for more than the 20 Steve is trying(!) to limit us to, or if you are driving in from the far north or south surburbs and eliminating 20-25 minutes from your transit is only logical.
Wow! That sounds great. I am so glad to hear her response. I live in Wheaton and LOVE my WAGS so I am good.
I’m glad to read this update-Lisle is closer. I did love Wheaton though because they were so nice & there are so many good places to eat afterwards.
wow! Special hours for couponers – a dream come true!
hey…I just read on CW that Luster White RR is already working (?) …that it is a monthly deal from 3/27 to 4/26. Can you confirm (or deny)?
I’ll check it out, but don’t forget that tomorrow, 3/31 is that Wags Family and Friends deal where you get the 15% off everything.
oh, great, i just get deals figured out and now the numbers all change. crap.
glad DS made the calculator on my phone more accessible!!
and of course, I work tomorrow…12.5 hours. wtf. But thanks for the heads up…maybe if my brain isn’t too fried after work, I might stop by.
OK, here is the latest on The Everything…Yes, the Luster White $4 RR is working. The shelf tag reads $7.99 but rings at $5.99, so even if you buy it tomorrow with the 15% Family and Friends discount, you are still paying slightly more than the week of the 10th. Now, if you want to run it this way…2 Colgate and 1 Luster White for 11.99. Less 15%, and you’re at $10.19. $3 in Colgate coupons and $1.50 Luster White brings you down to $5.69. Plus high tax and you’re at approximately $6.11. If you throw in a cheap filler, you could use an Almay RR and pay $1+ then get back $8 RR.
OK, that works for me. As long as they take the 15% off the subtotal BEFORE coupons, it’s a win-win situation. Otherwise? meh
