Remember they are MQs and will scan on any register at any store. That being said, most stores will see the red "W" and not understand that they are MQs (even if they read on it that it is) and it won't be worth the hassle. But if you shop at a grocery store that accepts competitor Qs, use them there to come off of your bottom line. I go to Wags, get what I want, pay cash, then take the RRs to Publix. My Publix takes Wags Qs because there is a Wags in the same parking lot- sometimes they try to enter them as competitor Qs, but I just tell them to scan them because they're MQs and it works like a charm every time. I'm in metro ATL. Even if your Publix doesn't take accept Wags as a competitor, I'm sure that if you showed a manager where it says "Manufacturer Coupon" across the top, only suggests you use it at Wagreens, and shows the address directing the retailer (not Wags, retailer) to send it in for reimbursement, they'll see the light. And of course, once they try to scan it and it works, you'll be good to go. I gave up long ago trying to roll RRs or even use them at all in Walgreens.

Had 8 coupons so $2.00 for 8 sticks with my $1.00 RR. It printed a coupon for 2 for 2 lady speed stick so I went and picked up 2 more for free! If you have the $4.00 Glade Frangrance coupons you can get the small candles for $0.29 each. YEAH! Tonight I bought Lady Speed stick for $1.00 with my $0.75 coupon.

But the items I wanted had sold out and the truck was coming in today. No Ragu, No Ban deodorant.... but I did get Maxwell House 4.89 B1G1 free. I got 4 coffees and had 2 $1.00 off coupons equalling $7.78. Also got a gallon of milk for $2.69 and the Halls Refresh for $.50. I had $6.00 in RR and paid $5.92 in cash for everything. The cashier had her mouth hanging open.. I just smiled and left. I went to Walgreens with full intent on getting RR back. But the items I wanted had sold out and the truck was coming in today.

Ask your store manager what day shipment comes in then, try to go that night for the items with a RR.

Outside my area (Knoxville) the Walgreen's said if you use a RR on your purchase you can not get a new RR. If this is Walgreen's new policies then I for one will stop shopping at Walgreen's as the only reason I have shopped at Walgreen's for years is the coupon deals.

Not sure if the campbells coupon attaches to 2 items or 1. I have been using the .09 pens on clearance have tons now lol.. and starting off that way is good. I spend tons of time for just a few things but then I think if that stuff would have cost me $10 then and I spent an hr on it then better pay than 0 [if I didnt spend the time] But you will get a bit better as you go along , me on the other hand age has caught up . lol Yes I would add a filler in that second purchase.

Wags Qs don't count towards the total, just give them last. My rule of thumb- one item for every ‘piece of paper’ (RRs first, manuf second) you are handing over at the register.

Mileage may vary, but they generally print. You can use RRs from the same manuf to purchase a different item from the same company (and get your new RR) if the values are different.

I bought Citrucell, used a coupon this week and earned $3 RR. I went back the next day and bought it again and used my $3 that I earned the last sale, used my coupon and bought a filler item but did not earn $3RR for the 2nd transaction. They said if I use my RR to pay for an item I will not earn RR on that items. Is this correct? I talked to the manager and that's what he said and he also said it's written on the RR. I'm so used to CVS and love it so I can't say I like this system at all. Please help I feel like I just lost $3.
