They wouldn't let me use 2 $1.50/1 coupons at Walgreens for the coffeemate. My cashier wouldn't even ring it! The point was that maybe the coupon didn't work, but she was just plain rude. I also had a coupon for bandaids ($1/1) and they were on clearance for .82...wouldn't let me use it (again, she didn't even scan it) even though I had other items (red barron pizza) I had overage...so I'm not sure what to think about Walgreens either!

I used coffeemate and it was wonderful. I would think you could switch them if Cremora is also a powered creamer; I've never heard of it.

So, for the 2nd item, I had her try a 50 cent off manf. coupon from the paper/inserts....but that one also didn't work. I didn't mind...paying 50 cents each, still a great deal & I kept the 2 coupons that beeped for the 2nd Coffee-mate. The 1st Coffee-mate coupon for 1.50 went through okay but the 2nd one didn’t.

It was not in the sale paper and there was no signage on the product aisle. I guess I will try Wal-mart. These were not on sale in the Detroit area either as far as I could tell.

I checked my receipt later and it did. I only had to hand ONE over and got the -$1.50 applied to both. Kinda like how the ESQ's take the $$ off each item, but you only need 1Q, hope that makes sense.

Was disappointed because i thought i was getting a deal :) So, I could only use 2 q's on 4 bottles. The register beeped but was hoping she would push them through because she didn't know why.

I went over to Wal-mart and paid about .16 for Italian Sweet Cream. GREAT to me and I will be using it in tea not coffee.

I'm still not quite sure how I got my total. I also purchased a colgate advanced on sale but they wouldn't take my manuf. coupon. My total was .48 plus .53 in tax. only 1.01 total. still not bad considering they wouln't take 2 coupons (2.50 total). The only flavor my walgreen's had on sale was the vanilla. The hazelnut wasn't on sale. I purchased 4 coffee mates and was only able to use 3 coupons. I’m still not quite sure how I got my total.

I think they are starting to get panicky about how much people are saving and how much they are not making! I also couldn't use all the coupons on the Sense and Spray BOGO coupons for the same reasons everyone said. I just didn't get them. The store manager had to come over and he got out the printed coupon policy for the store and went through it on each of my questions. He did adjust 3 coupons down for me which was nice, but I'm not as excited to shop there as I used to be. I agree, Walgreens makes me feel BAD for using coupons now!

How do I handle this? the managers are making up the rules as they go?
