I tried using the Colgate coupon and the cashier told me that if I used the coupon the RR wouldn't print. The manager said that sometimes the manufacturer won't let them print RR if a coupon is used....

This is the first time I heard of this. Anyone else here manage to use the coupon and get the RR?

I saw that the Excedrin is Buy 1, Get 1 Free. I have my coupon for the FREE Excedrin (up to $5.99), if I use this coupon, can I get 2 free? My coupon expires 03-19-2010 (this Friday)

I was unable to use the children's activity book coupon on the kid's bandaids--they are not part of the sale. So, I bought 2 regular bandaid boxes and 2 neosporin and used the coupons I listed above and paid $4 and got 3RR. Still not bad, I guess.

I tried the deal today with the activity book coupon for Bandaid. The problem was that the coupon is for character Bandaids which appear not to be included in the $3.00 sale. The ad makes it appear such but our store, which is great about putting up sale signs, did not have one for this product. The associate tried to price correct but the computer would not give a rr because it was price modified and still not the proper product. My associate had the patience of a saint and spent 20 minutes trying to get the deal to work but ran into issues no matter how he tried. He tried ways that even got me confused and I have been doing this for a while. lol

Just an FYI. If you are using RR to make a purchase and have a manufacturer coupon for the item you will need to purchase something else. Here is my Example

I purchased two Dr. Scholls Insoles on 3/13,
$10.99 ea / $10 RR wyb $20
-$3 off Dr. Scholls in-ad coupon from last week(this deducted $6)
-$2/1 Dr. Scholls Massaging Gel (x2)
-$5 RR Coupon
-$5 RR Coupon
-$2 RR Coupon
It would not take, so I had to purchase 4 $0.33 Candy Bars.

I paid $2.28. I am not complaining at all, just wanted to let everyone know that RR count as Man Coupons and you have to have one item for each MAN Coupon.

bridgette, they were wrong, you should be able to match a man coupon with a walgreens coupon (per store policy). I went to print the soft scrub coupons, and didn't have the B1G1 coupon there. Also.... I've asked 3 diff wags stores in my area and got the same thing..they are usually at the parmacy area (if it's the one they tell me when i ask for it) and they are always out, or have no idea wat i am talking about....ANY ideas???

I tried to do the John Frieda deal yesterday at Wags and they told me the coupon from the Walgreens March coupon booklet and my manufacturer coupons were the same. How is it considered a manufacturer coupon if it is only good at Walgreens? I thought I could stack their coupon with mine to get the shampoo for .99. Should I call corporate or just try another store?

@jackson, ugh I purchased the Huggies diapers back in Feb and she took my huggies qpn. I asked her if she really needed to take it out and she said yes. Thanks for the info. I'm also going to try the wags activity book qpns with the band-aid deal.

Beka, You are correct. It is a money maker if you also use the neosporin and the bandaid Q's from the childrens activity book. Just as an added note regarding the Q's in the activity books, You don't have to remove them from the book. You only need to purchase one book and they can scan it from inside the book. Some of the cashiers will try to get you to remove them and then they will keep them. I have spoken to 3 Managers and to corporate. They (corporate and the Managers) stated that you can keep the Walgreens Q's and the Childrens Activity Book Q's they only need to keep the Manufacturers Q's. This way you can you them again and again as you need them. Hope this helps someone.

You can also use the coupons from the childrens activity book on the neosporin and band aids. I think you could buy 2 band aids and 2 neosporin, use two $3/2 coupons (wyb band aid and neosporin), use the activity book to deduct $8 ($2 for each neosporin and $2 for each bandaid)....SO, you would pay NOTHING out of pocket and get $3 RR. Is this correct?

Thanks, Laura. That usually means that it's reached its print limit and they just haven't taken it down yet.

FYI: The Zyrtec printable coupon link says "Sorry, you've already printed this (in whatever wording)," although I have not done so (have never printed anything for Zyrtec previously). Tried it from another computer as well, and it says the same thing, so I'm thinking you may have copied the link from your completed print, and it is passing the variables from a completed print in the URL string; therefore it cannot be printed from that URL any longer.

The Neosporin coupon is $3 off wyb one Neosporin product and one Band-Aid product, so it should work correctly.

I think the neosporin/bandaid deal is backwards. If the neosporin coupon is $3/2 then you need 2 neosporin and 1 bandaid, so $7-RR
