Expo Markers w/ Bonus – Mixed Results

by Christie Bisbee on July 22, 2010

Several of you e-mailed me to let me know that you were able to get a deal on the Expo Washable Markers with the bonus board.

These are on sale for $5.99 and you the following coupons to get it for just $1.99…
-$1/1 Expo Washable Markers PRINT
-Walgreens July Coupon Book $3 off Expo Washable Markers, 6pack (5886)

I found these at a store in my area and the Walgreens July Coupon Book coupon just would not work for me. The cashier tried a few different things and I finally gave up. So if you try this deal just know it can go either way. It may or may not be programmed into the registers at your store to work with the Walgreens coupon. I would certainly ask the cashier to check it for you because it would be a wonderful deal if it is! Just don’t include it in your transaction before checking first.

Amazing how inconsistent all the stores are. I tried the fiber bar deal this week too and it didn’t generate a RR for me even though I made sure to buy the right ones yet I saw how others were able to do it. CRAZY!

This deal worked for me. The sign said $7.99 but rang up $5.99, and with the $3 and $1 coupon it was only $1.99. Def. worth asking šŸ˜‰

I just came from one of the Wags near me and they told me they were not taking the printed cpns. I asked since when? And she said they got a letter from corp that told them not to take them. SO I left my 3 items there and walked away.
I got in the car called corp and ofcourse they were not aware and could not give me any answers. I should get a call within 2 days from a district manager..so she says….
I will be going to another store and see what they say.

I actually found a store that had signs indicating the sale price of 5.99 for markers with boards and also that you can use the $3 coupons from the July IVC book and I was also able to use 3 printable coupons. I didn’t see signs in any other stores I went to, but I figured if this one had a sign, then I could point to it if I had issues.

I tried to purchase Dentyne gum yesterday. I had a $1/1 MQ and the Walgreens July coupon for 3 packs/$.99 the cashier did not even bother to scan the Walgreens Q, stating that it is a manufacturers Q. I bought the gum at another store and the 2 coupons rang up fine. I don’t understand why they don’t try to scan to show us customers, instead of just saying so. So, I do not think the Expo deal will work for me if the cashiers flat out say they don’t scan. I live in metro St Louis BTW.
Who feels like arguing when a toddler and preschooler just want to leave and you are fighting with them too.

I hear you Corina there are times when you just get a grumpy cashier that really just doesn’t want to bother.

Hi, Corina!

I copied & pasted this comment I wrote today at another topic on this site….

“Did you happen to visit the Hampton cor Chippewa Wags in St. Louis??? Thatā€™s the ā€œcoupon UNfriendliest storeā€ I have been to. If itā€™s convenient for me, I will only go there if Iā€™m picking up free print outs I ordered online. Iā€™m an honest couponer and I totally loathe (sorry for the word) shopping there. They donā€™t say it but they make couponers feel like shoplifters.”

Did you shop at this store?

It says $7.99 but when you scan it it’s ringing up $5.99, so i got 2 of those and 2 of the regular one…
thanks for everything
