I am new to this, this was actually my first transaction Yeh!!!! I am wondering though when you go to the online easy Saver form and you check off which rebate offers you want and then enter you receipt number. Will it automatically give you credit for 6 #27 rebates (ie $1 back on each of the 6 qualifying items on my recipt) or do you have to enter the receipt 6 different times????? Thanks for any advice from a newbie I have a question. I am new to this, this was actually my first transaction Yeh!!!!

My WAGS just south of Myrtle BEach will accept ALL ip coupons, with no limit in value. Shelf price for the auto. shower cleaner was 24.99 but rang up for 19.99. Asked the store mgr if they had any policy in place or any new policies for accepting these coupons, he said they accept any and all ip, as long as they scan. Scored big time tonight!

I was amazed, actually. HOWEVER, they did not accept a RR since I was using other coupons in my transaction. They said it was a new rule and they could no longer accept a RR if the customer was using even one mfr coupon in the order. So, she set aside a non-coupon item for the RR transaction. It worked, and she was very kind and helpful. I understand and don't want anyone to get in trouble. I will, though, call corporate to see if that is a new rule. Seems very silly, though. OH, if your store is out of any of these great items, PLEASE get a raincheck and go back. These rebates are good all month, the coupons don't expire for a while, and your raincheck will guarantee your sale price. :) I went to a WAGS in Tennessee today, and they took all of my IP coupons with no problems, no beeps.

The clerk said they don't always retag for sales. It violates our state law to have the tag price lower than what you charge and they don't always get them all down at the end of sales, so they don't bother. It is ok to have the price listed higher, of course, and they said people feel like they are getting a real bargain. Weird, but I got a great deal!

I am new to the whole Walgreens thing and have a question regarding the rebates. When the rebate (such as the #27 cleaning products) says "Purchase one. Rebate limit $1. Rebate limit of 6 for up to $6 in savings." does that mean I have to purchase 6 different products from the choices given? Or can I, for example, purchase 6 of the same Fantastik and get $6 in rebates? Hi, all! I am new to the whole Walgreens thing and have a question regarding the rebates.

The coupons did beep, but the nice cashier put them in manually. I bought a free after rebate item and used a coupon with it, too. My total out of pocket for all of the cleaning stuff, some expensive facial cleanser that I'd have never bought without the rebate, and one other item I needed was less than $2. The extra 10% they add to the rebates when you put it on the gift card will help with the tax I paid. This site made it all happen. I watch the sales, but didn't know about these great printable coupons and the rebate to match it all up. Thank you! This was my best trip to Wags ever!

They said as of right now, there has been NOTHING to indicate that Walgreens will not take internet printables - they said it would be suicide to their stores if that was enacted. They mentioned that if a store does not want to take a printable, that you must call corporate and request that the store honor the coupon - it is part of their policy to honor these! As far as the printables on the WALGREENS site though, they said that that may be going away, they weren't sure, it was up to corporate. So keep printing your coupons and keep talking to managers. Their corporate policy is to honor ALL manufacturer coupons, regardless of IP or newspaper status. HTH! Hey all -

I combined it with the weekly deals posted, and save $35 in coupons before rebates! My Walgreens took the printed coupons, and the cashier was amazed when I bought two Lindt bars, and two flameless candles for $1.53. THEN my register receipt printed for $3. I bought the other items, and spent $18.32, and will receive $16 in rebates. Thank you so much!! p.s. I used the price checker to ensure everything was on sale and it was, but not posted on the tags.
