How can you tell when a Walgreens “gets” coupons? When the manager has the coupons clipped and placed right on the product for people to see and use. None of that “If you use a coupon you won’t get the Register Reward crap. This Wags is my new best friend and Steve, you rock (which doesn’t mean that all the rest don’t also rock, just that i am limited in the amount of space i can devote to the mutual admiration society).
Stopped in to pick up my Splenda (with fiber!!) that was special ordered to take advantage of not only the $2.99 sale, but the $2 ip and the BOGO (1/9 s2). All told I got 22, broken down into two transactions: 12 Splenda, 1 Arnicare gel, 1 pocket tissue (filler). Used a $10 RR from the appetizer spray and ended up forking over .88. Second transaction was for 10 Splenda, 20 Dove mini-boxes $1/2 (1/30 rp1) and one Natrol melatonin. In this case, I was forced to add something large enough to enable me to burn another of the $10 appetizer spray RRs. Had to come up with big bucks here: $3.45.
OOP was $4.33 and I earned $15 in RRs.
wow. wish they’d do that up here in the boondocks but not w/the evil old lady managers’ that are at the wags up here…CVS is bad too…they harass me about Q’s sometimes.
While I would never tell someone to drive for a deal, the fact is that if you are either placing a special order or buying large amounts and stacking wags ivc, in-ad and mfr coupons, it might not be such a bad idea to drive to a coupon-friendly store. Of course, make certain your road trip covers all the major food groups: Jewel, Dominicks, Wags and CVS. Around here, you can’t spit without hitting at least three of them.
Where is this Utopia of a Wags located???
It’s the new Wags at 2020 S. Naperville Road in Wheaton, just north of Butterfield (Danada Square East and West stores). Frankly, it’s great because you can “earn” your Register Rewards at Wags and then cross the street to the Dominicks, which may or may not accept them, depending upon the phase of the moon, political situation in Egypt and the color of your underpants.
Steve just turned me on in a way my husband can’t.
well, duh!
