   If I have 2 $3 Brainstrong manufacturer’s coupons on top of the Walgreens booklet coupon, wouldn’t that make it a moneymaker or will the booklet coupon self-adjust?

  you cant get overage at walgreens. the coupon will adjust down. if you do the walgreens coupon first the manufacturer coupon will beep and that will have to be adjusted down, but if you do the manufacturer coupon first then the wags coupon the wags coupon will self adjust.

  Actually, many Walgreens do give overage, though not all. It depends on the store. All of mine do and they did the last place I lived as well. You just have to make sure you have something else to absorb that cost.

   The Gillette Razor $5 coupon is for “Buy One Gillette Fusion Proglide cartridge (4 ct. or larger), get $5 off one Gillette Fusion Proglide Razor”. You MUST buy the cartridge 4 pack or larger AND the razor. Not really a great deal.

  Collin (Mrs. Hip) December 31, 2011 at 3:20 pm MST

  From what I’ve seen by looking at the coupon preview, there are actually 2 different Gillette coupons. One if for $5 off the razor and refill AND the other is for $5/1 Gillette Fusion ProGlide Razor. Hopefully that’s correct, as it makes for a great deal this week! 🙂

  I am staring at the physical coupons (I get them early in the mail) and if there are 2 then the second is regional. Just the one in my P&G. I hope others get the better coupon.

  that is not how the coupon is intended to be used and therefore that is coupon fraud. you should not do that

  Christina January 2, 2012 at 3:18 pm MST

  actually the term coupon fraud is being way over used especially by employees of stores. It is incorrect coupon use. I have had employees yell at me when one was stuck to another and I didn’t buy the item, or one I didn’t notice expired, or an item I put back, or when there was a limit I didn’t notice. it was an error that happens to us all but extremely embarassing. Coupon Fraud is BUYING a PRODUCT the coupon is NOT intended for, such as using a Toothpaste on Floss, or Makeup on Shampoo. It is also used against people who swap out cash for a coupon in there till. PLEASE don’t throw that term out there unless it is actually correct. There was two diff. coupons and I also have a five dollar that came in another product for the razor, as well as one less than $5. Happy new year everyone.

  yes christina you are correct there is 2 diff coupons but as he stated his coupon was for both products but the employee said they could try it anyways. the coupon was intended for the purchase of the razor AND the cartridges, so using it for just the razor is not how the manufacturer intended the coupon to be used. on the coupons in the fine print it says good only on the purchase of the items specified, so by him only purchasing the razor and using the coupon he is not using it how it was intended therefore it is coupon fraud. the manufacturer intended for the customer to spend $20+ on the cartridges and razor together to be able to save $5, NOT to spend about $10 on a razor and still save $5.

   Heads Up! Look for specially marked packages of Colgate Total Advanced Toothpaste. It is on sale at Wal-Mart for $2.97 I think. I used a $1/1 coupon-expires today. It has a booklet with $15 worth of coupons in it! There is a $1/1 coupon in the booklet so I can go do the deal again! Makes me smile 🙂

    Can someone clarify the “Spend $10 on Participating Household Products = $1 RR” (for this week it’s Tide products)? I thought you had to spend $10 before getting the RR. At my Walgreens, the use of coupons cannot bring you below the $10 mark otherwise the RR won’t print– (I tried it before and it didnt’ work.)

  katee December 31, 2011 at 6:06 pm MST

  if its $10 after all WALGREENS coupons then it should print. even id manufacturer coupons bring it below $10 that should not matter, it should print. i work at wags and thats how our store works, maybe you purchased a wrong product by accident? if you want to do this deal try asking the manager on duty before you pay HTH 🙂

    Every time I try one of the deals at Walgreens that are buy “$15 on participating products get $5 RR” for example, the RR never print and the manage always tells me it is because you have to spend “$15” after coupons?!

    I have a question regarding the following:

    “Buy Tide Stain Release 10 pk $4.49
    Use the $2/1 Tide coupon found in the 1/1 PG”

    I see 3 tide coupons in my P&G

    $2 off ONE Tide detergent
    $2 off ONE Tide Stain release 26-50 oz powder,15-36 ct, or 36-68 oz liquid
    $0.50 off ONE Tide stain release (excludes travel size

    Is there a different $2/1 Tide Stain release out there that is valid for 10 pk Tide Stain Release?

  I dont think there is a diff. one, I have the same one in NY as you in my P&G. The only other one I knew of was the one inside the box detergent you had to cut off for $2off any stain release and $1 off any detergent, and I used mine a couple weeks ago.

    I started taking SAM-e a few weeks ago after Dr. Oz recommended it. Omg. I will never go a day without it ever again. It gives me so much energy. I get a good effect from taking 400 mg a day. And the stuff is pretty pricey. Worth every single penny even at full price. Stock up while it’s free! Dr Oz was highlighting several supplements as an alternative to energy drinks/shots that are bad for you.

    Oh goodness, I’m excited for Walgreens this week. 🙂 Our particular store hasn’t restocked the Ester-C gummy vitamins since at least the beginning of November though, and it irks me. I know the B1G1 sale has happened multiple times since I got the rain check in early November, but I have never seen them on the shelf. Either people around here really like their vitamin c, or whoever orders the product for our store doesn’t appreciate a good vitamin deal!

    I am so confused with the catalinas I got. I am plannig to purchase the Enfamil/Enfagrow formula and I have 2 catalinas that were printed while ago. Since I never used catalina in Wags before can anyone answer my question please. Can I use the $5.00 printed coupon from internet for the enfamil and the $5.00 catalina also. Is it like an RR or I cannot use them together? Thank you in advance.

  Livvy January 1, 2012 at 6:44 pm MST

  No, she is not. Per purchase means per ITEM purchased. So if you buy 4 boxes, you need to use 4 separate coupons. She is confusing “purchase” with “transaction.” Next time, just ask for a manager’s opinion, if you can. She might get annoyed that you’re questioning her, but it’s saving you money and educating her at the same time so she’s doesn’t put someone else through the same thing.

    i think in terms of the B1G1 on the vitamins, if you’re not buying the $30 worth in order to get the resistance band kit at walgreens you might as well be purchasing from CVS since it counts towards your quarterly spending and you’ll get more back when the rewards come around

    Spend $20 on Participating Mucinex or Lysol Products = $6 RR
    Buy 2 Lysol No-Touch hand soap systems 8.5 oz $8
    Buy 1 Lysol disinfectant spray 12.5 oz $4
    Total = $20
    Use the 2 $3/1 Lysol coupons found in the 1/1 SS
    Use the $1/1 Lysol coupon found in the 1/1 SS
    Pay $13
