Updates From The Field 1/16!

by Christie Bisbee on January 16, 2011

Here are some observations from my trip today that will hopefully make your trip a little bit easier!

VICKS DEAL

Great News! The Vicks Sinex both Daytime & Nighttime 20 caplets rang up $5 and worked for the deal! And I couldn’t believe how much Sinex my store had in stock. Happy Day!

KRAFT HOMESTYLE MAC & CHEESE
More good news on this deal too. These rang up $1.67 for the first one and then $1.66 for the second. So if you wanted to just buy two you could…

Buy
2 – Homestyle Macaroni & Cheese 12.6 oz. $1.67 & $1.66 each
Use
2-$1/1 Kraft Homestyle Mac & Cheese 1-16-11 SS x2/16
1-$1/2 Kraft Homestyle Deluxe Macaroni & Cheese 12.6 oz., Deluxe Macaroni & Cheese 14 oz. or Velveeta Shells & Cheese 12 oz. (5680) January Coupon Book
Total = $.33 or $.17 EACH!

DULCOLAX BALANCE DEAL
Both of the in ad coupon AND the $2/1 Walgreens coupon from the Walgreens Live Well coupon flyer worked for me. If you don’t have that flyer and you have a nice cashier that will just enter the code for you it’s (5451).

Buy
Dulcolax Balance 4.1 oz $6.49
Use
-$3/1 Dulcolax Balance PRINT
-$3/1 Dulcolax in ad Coupon
-$2/1 Dulcolax Tablets 10-100ct, Liquidgels 25-100, Suppos. 4-28, Balance 7-14 day (5451) Walgreens Live Well
= FREE (Plus $1.51 Overage if your store allows)

tyvm Christie for all of your work! I found some Dayquil boxes with 20%
bonus! The Thermacare 2ct have been relocated next to the registers at
some stores. I found the Joint Juice on an endcap display, The Full
Fast Appetite Control is located at the registers and hanging at the end of the candy aisle (lol). HTH my fellow WAGS shoppers!

What should I do if my store claims they don’t carry the monthly wags coupon book? I wanted to do the macaroni deal but my store has no knowledge of the monthly books

Steph – You can also print the coupons HERE.

Did anyone else have problems with the $1 Kraft Homestyle manufacturer coupon beeping?

Thanks Christie – I had no problem with the Sinex at all. Kraft went through ok too. They were out of Joint Juice but I was able to pick up $112.01 for $21.93 without starting with any RRs. I picked up:
Pill Spray
4 Sinex
Carefree
2 Colgate toothpastes
Thermacare
Tom’s of Maine deodorant
2 Chloraseptic thorat drops
padded envelope
2 Herbal Essences mousse
Charmin 6 roll double pack
3 Secret deodorant Smooth Effects
2 Kraft Homestyle
2 Softsoap 56 oz refills
Thanks for everything you do! This was the first time I had everything to do a transaction deal (except D&Y coupons) and it was great.

For the Kraft deal, I bought 4 boxes and my cashier entered the Wags $1/2 coupon before the Manufacter’s Q. The first 3 MQ went through fine but the 4th beeped. I had her delete the 4th Mac & Cheese and purchased it in a separate transaction. BIG NEWS… I purchase 1 Mac & Cheese (1.67) used MQ(-1.00) and she scanned the Wags Q ($1/2) which took off 0.50 so I bought 1 Mac & Cheese for 0.17… Yippee!!!

I did the Kraft deal with no problems except they only had 4 bags of the homestyle – I bought all 4 and 2 boxes. I also got 2 free bottles of Nature Made fish oil with my 2/$5 Qs. Also, Nexus was on clearance as low as $2.99. I had a $3Q – free Nexus shampoo for me. The 0.49 candy is good filler also. The bridge mix is pretty tasty.

Kraft Macaroni & Cheese has a coupon on facebook for 1.00 off…”like” them, then click on “homestyle”

Reply

Maria January 17, 2011 at 12:11 am

Grace, if you flip over the book to the other side where you have “The Reveal” cover, it is in that section. It is a page before the candy coupons start. On the same page as the $1 off Blue Diamond Almonds and 50 cents of Kraft Mayo

The coupons in the monthly coupon books are actually manufacturer coupons, so my wags will not use those AND my own manufacturer coupons. Anyone else have this issue?

The Kraft Facebook coupon prints .50/1 not $1.00/1 !!

Casey January 17, 2011 at 12:01 pm

I’m a Wag newbie. Can I roll the Sinex RR’s to buy more Sinex? I know sometimes it works with products and sometimes not. TIA.

Reply

mary January 17, 2011 at 12:58 pm

Casey,
you can’t use the Sinex rr’s to but more Sinex which is usually the
case. HTH! Enjoy shopping WAGS! HTH.

Casey January 17, 2011 at 1:15 pm

Thank you Mary for the help.

grace January 17, 2011 at 3:41 pm

Casey, you can use your 10R&R to buy Joint Juice and then use the $10 R&R you get from that to do the Sinex again

Reply

grace January 17, 2011 at 3:42 pm

Joint Juice is NASTY!!

Christy January 17, 2011 at 4:01 pm

I got 6 of the kraft homestyle yesterday. The bag ones, I wish the coupon would work on the Deluxe Boxes – does anyone know?

Also, I bought 2 of the Kraft + 1 Gillette fusion razor, paid credit card, and got 2 bonus cats for $2.50 off 2 U-Kotex, and an informational cat saying if I buy a Dove for Men product I would get $2 off my next order. Second transaction was same items; paid cash; no bonuses.

my store claims that if i pay with a register reward that is from the same company of the product i’m buying i will not get any register reward that is offered for that product, is this true?

Reply

Lori January 17, 2011 at 7:02 pm

Maria C – They are right – you can not. That is called “rolling” and Wags typically doesn’t do that.

Reply

Emily January 17, 2011 at 7:06 pm

Lori – you’re wrong. It can be from the same company, as long as it’s not for the same denomination ! 🙂 HTH!

maria c January 17, 2011 at 9:14 pm

thank you lori and emily for your response, i think i understand now

stacia January 18, 2011 at 1:48 pm

I have rolling info…
I told the cashier I was performing an experiment
I bought pantene and gillette fusion razors and then used those RR to buy more and it worked!
so, the pantene and razors are ROLLING!

Has anyone had major problems with the stores limiting the amount of sinex you can buy??? I had a horrible experience yesterday that I called corporate about, received a phone call from I’m assuming a district manager, and I was more mad after that call then I was about the original problem. The DM pretty much said what do you want me to do about it??? How dare him!!! Long story short, first they wouldn’t let me use more than one $4/1 coupon in the same transaction. I pointed out on the coupon about 1 per purchase a 4 per transaction. She argued with me and I explained then what does transaction mean??? She went to go print the coupon policy, which I had in my hand, then came back and said you can buy 4… I want to buy 8. I by no means were wiping them out either, they had plenty of stock but that’s fine, I understand…. I then traveled to the next closet Walgreens to buy my remaining 4 boxes and I hear that the manager has a call over the loud speaker and they actually say who it was and guess what, it was the manager from the other store telling her I shouldn’t be able to buy the sinex at this location!!! Are you serious!!!! The manager at that store was very nice and I actually stood there and listened to their conversation without that manager knowing she was talking about me. When she got off the phone, I explained who I was and she was a dear in the headlights. Like I said, she was nice and I had no problem with her, I only wanted to buy 4 so I could get the RR and she said money is being lost bc of the $6 MM with the RR. Ok, then don’t have a deal!!!!! That’s now my problem. I was so mad and then I received the call from the DM who basically didn’t care. If the first manager had a better attitude as well it would not have upset me so much. She never said who she was, she was not wearing a name tag, she just jumped in and started screaming at me and the cashier. Is there anyone else I can call to express my concerns??? Obviously over the DM. Thanks for letting me vent =)

My store was out of Sinex , but I luckily found 4 near the register!
Love the new site, Chrisite!

The coupon beeped for the Mac&Cheese when I tried to use 2 mfg $1 coupons and the $1/2 booklet coupon. The clerk told me I couldn’t use 2 mfg coupons and gave one back. I never want to cause a problem – especially with people lined up behind me. The Sinex was not included in the Vicks deal at our Walgreens.

P&G has changed the wording on their coupons to “limit of 4
like coupons in same shopping trip”.
