can the 15%off coupon be used over and over thru the dates or is it just one time use and we have to have multiple prints of it?
yes you can use this coupon over and over till july 4th
I hate Wags but I might have to go grab the Veet! Gah! Any tips if your wags doens’t have a photo or cosmetic counter?
Your Walgreens doesn’t have either?
they have changed their registers and you no longer have to go to photo or cosmetics. Just be sure to show them the 15% coupon BEFORE they ring anything up cause they need to hit the employee discount button to get the discount started.
My friend has told me it feels like your legs are on fire with that stuff LOL!
I pass.
I tried veet and had horrible luck with it. It did fine on the hair above my knees, but below my knees it left an awful rash. That is what I get for “testing” on the upper part of my legs. It took a week before the rash went away and I could actually shave again.
that happens when u use more than 3min. on ur skin………it almost work within 2 min.
I guess you wouldn’t have to buy 2 of the noxema razors, huh? 1 should be 2.50, right?
If you have a BOGO free for buying a 36 ct Playtex get 18 ct playtex free, this deal could be even sweeter yes? I guess depending on how much the 36 ct playtex was. I am waiting to receive these coupons and hope to get them by tomorrow so i can get in on the 15% discount!
Has anyone tried it with the BOGO deal, if so, do you remember the final cost?
I got this deal at CVS. The 36ct is on sale for 6.99 with card and I used a $1off and the BOGO. Paid $5.99 and got $3 extra bucks for purchasing
I just called my local walgreens and their 36 ct are not on sale (bummer!). They cost $8.49. So in order to get the RR you’d have to buy 2- 36 ct and 2- 18ct (using 2 BOGO coupons). You’d get the 2-18 ct free, plus RR (-$3), plus %15 discount would equal $13.98 for all 4 boxes. Then if you could also use 2 coupons for $2.50/2 it would take it down to $8.98 for all 4 boxes. Not as great of a deal (assuming you could use all the discounts) but still pretty good yeah?
…assuming all my calculations are correct….
you have to add fillers to use all these Q’s too right? Example on the Noxema Razors – if you buy 2, use the 15% off, plus 2 Mfr Q’s – you’d need a 3rd item filler because of 3 Q’s —— am I right?
I’ve been going less and less to Wags because this is too confusing.
Jen,
You don’t need fillers because the 15% coupon is a store coupon. The ratio of coupons to items is only for manufacturer coupons.
Just went to Wags– I swear this store can be such a PITA sometimes but I did get 2 free Veet’s + $.06 overage for each one. I bought the Benedryl that was $4.29 less 15%- this did not print our the RR so I’ll try calling if not I will take it back- same with the cereal- $2/5 less $1 coupon – but no $2RR— CVS is just so much easier!
In LV, NV and I used the WAGS coupon to stock up on their bottled water since it was $2.49 + 20% off. Also, they had their summer/ regular toys on clearance for 50% off.
I am have problems with my Walgreen because they will not let you stack coupons.
I have a question, Does anyone know if you can put this 15%coupon towards any and all items in each transaction? Meaning, can I buy the Playtex and the Veet and get 15% off every item in the same transaction? Or do I need to split the transactions up?
Give the 15% off coupon before they ring anything up. You will get 15% off each item you purchase, no need to split it up.
I’m stuck someone help me! I am very new to this still and my first experience at WG today was a disaster. They wouldn’t let me stack coupons and I had a whole cart of stuff. I looked like an idiot because I didn’t want to still purchase everything without the deal I think I am entitled to. Can anyone help me out as to why this might have happened? Or what I can do in the future?
So Sorry your 1st trip was a bust. Sometimes its best to start with several small transactions to get your feet wet.
I’m not sure what you bought, nor the coupons you used, but I did 2 trips so far (1 yesterday, 1 about an hr ago) and just had issues last night with the Listerine in-store q AND the easysaver booklet q. Tonight was a breeze.
I give the F&F coupon first. It will automatically deduct 15% (or 20% for W brand) off each item. After the cashier finishes scanning, I give RRs 1st. Then I give Manf. coupons, followed by ad or IVC booklet coupon.
All I bought tonight was
3 tubs of Huggies wipes 2.54 each. Just like Collins scenerio, each tub came to .71 after the IVC & 2.50/3 IP.
2 Benadryl 24ct 4.50 each (5.29 shelf price!!) used $4/2 IP
1 pack of index cards .25
used a $2 rr from kelloggs deal last week
came to 5.37 & tax
I just had a looooong conversation with a walgreens manager tonight about just this thing! I told her how soooo many of us are frustrated about different stores making up their own rules etc… She is new to couponing herself and is so excited about it (yes I turned her on to here :)) so she was shocked at the lengths people would go to avoid Wags for that reason alone and said she would talk to corporate. She fully admitted that they get NO training on coupons at all so I told her I and all the other couponers would very much like that to change. So fingers crossed!
I went to Walgreens today to get the Veet. I tried purchasing 3 and use 3 MQ’s and the manager told me it wouldn’t take my third coupon(the total was 4.98). He said that I used the Max amount of MQ’s per sale. Yeah ok show me that policy buddy. So I told him to take one off and he thought that would make the price go up..wrong I paid .98 for 2 Veets and somehow he gave me back an extra coupon so I will go to the other store near me and get the offer again tom.
I will add that so far Walgreens is more of a pain then its worth. I still favor CVS, never had an issue there.
the manager was right. You should have tossed in a small filler. Even though the IVC is a ‘store’ coupon, it shows up as a Manf cpn deduction, so you would have needed another item to cover the 4th cpn.
Oh ok thanks. I will remember that tommorrow.
i didn’t realize the deal had overage, so that could have been another issue. you need to make sure you have something extra to eat that extra up.
I had also got 3 poligrips but used the coupons in the paper for the free 0.75oz. Still a good deal but in the long run it worked out better since I would of only gotta 3 veet but since he gave me back 2mq’s(still not sure why) instead of 1 I can go get 2 more somewhere else. If I get the huggies wipes deal that should be a good enough filler, right. Since I’ll still owe like 2.13 for the 3 packs.
you are wrong there. Just because it states MQ it does not count towards the MQ count. It has to be coded with a 5 or 9 at the beginning of the coupon in order for the system (at any store ) to recognize it as a MQ. It does not need a filler for coupon to item ratio.
It seems that Walgreens doesn’t know whats going on but the Walgreens coupon did come up as MQ even on the reciept.
your link to the 15% coupon is no longer valid!! help!
I have a couple of $1.50 coupons that printed out at Walgreens from the Catalina machine. If I use those coupons will I still get the RR back? I’m a little paranoid because when I had used the suave free coupon with other manufacturer coupons a couple of weeks ago I didn’t get the RR. The manager said that was because i had used coupons??? I showed him how it had worked with Kellogs in the same transaction but he said it had to do with the brand??? I guess Walgreens official policy is if you don’t know an answer make it up and stand your ground – the couponer is NEVER right.
If you buy a box of Kotex U tampons for 4.99 and use the $2 off August Walgreens coupon and $1 MQ from Kotex site you will pay $1.99 (less if you use 15% FF) and you will get a catalina for a free box of Playtex glide 18ct. tampons. I did this twice then used the 2 free Playtex catalinas to get 2 boxes of Playtex and a $3 RR. It was great!
I don’t go to Walgreens that often but I ventured in today. I always shop at CVS since they seem to be on every block around here. I bought the Veet (the tag on the shelf said I believe 8.99 (and it mentioned 3.00 off instant coupon — I asked sales person and she said that was referring to the 3.00 coupon from the Walgreens booklet). IThat’s instant. So used that, and a maufacturer coupon. So that brought it down to a final of 2.99. But I see many started with 6.99 – 3 – 3. Perhaps different prices in diff areas? Off to figure out what MQ means. Ha. So much to learn.
