The possibilities are endless! Don't forget to toss in some $2 off Huggies q's (from home mailer) if you run out of $5 and $3:)
3 questions:
1. I'm lost in the math. I don't get the same totals for transaction #1.
2. Are the diaper coupons specific to a certain type/size ... $3 vs. $5?
3. Any idea which tri-cities Walgreen's is most likely to have diapers in stock? And is coupon friendly? I don't make it up there until tonight.
Thanks
Jeanette, I added the totals to the post so you can see what happens there. The $10 Sambucol coupon will automatically take off $20 because you are buying 2 of them (even though it says limit 1)
As for the diapers, technically you are supposed to buy the diapers that it says (Gentle Care or Natural Care) However, I know from experience that these coupons will work for any of the huggies types of diapers/wipes. They will not beep. You may/may not have a picky store clerk/mananger that may tell you you HAVE to buy the type of diaper listed. If they dont have any of the certain type I would go to another store and try this again. (Sometimes store clerks can be a pain)
3) I would try for the Pasco store on court street and 20th, I believe they had lots of diapers there last night still.
I would suggest however, since you live so far away to call the store and have them place your items on hold for you..Yes, they will do that! :) I wouldnt have them put your whole cart on hold..but the biggest items of course, like Diapers. That way if no one has them, you will not waste a trip.
Good luck shopping!!
Thank you!! I am glad to know I can put items on hold. So, do the coupons work for the pull-ups too? Or do I have to use the $2 off ones from the inserts?
Thanks for this post karrie. Even though I screwed up and had bad couponing carma It still helps me a lot when you give me a scenerio. I think other people appriciated it too! I love ya girl!
Thank you THank you!!!! I stocked up on diapers and pull ups!!!!
My guess is that you can use it for Pull-ups. I would give it a try, if it beeps, you could say..oh maybe that coupon doesnt work with pull-ups, here is a regular pack. ? Good luck!!
Our you going to 2 different stores or is that 2 transactions at one location?
Thank you so much for explaining the order of the coupons.
I would totally do the two separate transactions at one store. I just separate my transactions..I tell the clerk "Hi! I have 2 different transactions." They are totally okay with that. It is okay to use the register reward you just got on the "next order". Good luck!!
Thank you! I ended up with a flat tire and did not make it up last night. So, I'm calling my order in today and I'll try again on Friday. Thanks again for all the help.
