Updates From the Field 9/12

by Christie Bisbee on September 12, 2010

Here are a few updates from my trip today that hopefully will make your trip a little easier.

DULCOLAX BALANCE DEAL
I was able to print the Dulcolax Coupons again this morning so they seem to be working fine. For those of you who had problems printing it you may want to try again or try another browser. I had my cashier ring up (2) and the 2nd coupon beeped, which is exactly what I expected. However when I had her ring up (3) bottles and did the scenario I wrote HERE, everything worked perfectly. ๐Ÿ™‚
__________________________________________________________________________________

SCHICK INTUITION DEAL
I had no problem with my Intuition ringing up properly, I bought the Intuition Plus Variety Pack with Shea Butter and Milk & Honey. However, my cashier told me she was having problems with some of the Intuition products wringing up with the B1G1 code but not taking off the 2nd item. So watch those registers. The cartridges were also ringing up incorrectly.

The $4/1 Schick Facebook coupon did not scan for me but it went through fine when put in manually. So be prepared for that as well.
___________________________________________________________________________________

KELLOGG’S DEAL
The Corn-Pops are also included in the Kellogg’s $1.99 deal (in addition to the Froot Loops and the Raisin Bran pictured in the ad.) So you can mix and match Corn-Pops and Froot Loops and get them for $1.25 each using the -$1.50/2 Kelloggโ€™s Froot Loops, Apple Jacks, Corn Pops, Any 10 Oz.+ PRINT.

The Schick Facebook coupon is having problems. The comments on the Schick page says that if we send an email they will get us a coupon. I don’t know how they will get us a coupon, but I’ll let you know when I find out.

Also, my Wags is still uninformed about their new coupon policy. They refused to adjust my Dulcolax MQ down. They said something about coupon fraud again. I, having had no sleep, had forgotten my coupon policy envelope and just cancelled my order. I’ll try again tomorrow.

Heather – I agree. The disconnect between the corporate policy (which is great) and the staff is insane. Keep us posted on the Schick coupon. I was able to use mine but I printed them yesterday. It’s an interesting looking razor I’ll tell you that much! It’s huge.

I had problems with the Schick Pomegrante ringing up B1G1, so I switched it out for a different one and all was well. Facebook coupon wouldn’t scan either, but she punched it in and it was fine.

A question on the Axe that is B1G1 50% off…..how are most cashiers ringing that with the BOGO coupon from the inserts last week? Mine only wanted to take off $2.75, but I convinced her to take off the ones that rang up regular price.

I also bought 3 of the Hershey Kisses, used the 50 cent off IVC and the $1/3 bags and got a Catalina for $1.00 off Hershey Kisses with carmel. So, later I bought just one bag of the Kisses with carmel, used the cat and the 50 cents off and got another cat for $1 off. ๐Ÿ™‚

I couldn’t get the Dulcolax to work at my store either. She said because the coupon was more than the product it wouldn’t work. I really didn’t need it, so it was okay with me. I was able to get the Intuition coupons to work. Didn’t scan, but she put it in manually for me. I was able to get 2 razors & two refills for $4, because I had 4 Q’s. The thing with some not ringing up. There is a NEW Limited Addition scent that wouldn’t ring up BOGO. My cashier told me it was because it was limited addition, so I just got the others. Didn’t matter to me – I’ve just wanted to try them! ๐Ÿ™‚

I greatly appreciate all the hard work you do. I love it when you let use know what “beeps” and what goes through smoothly. Sometimes I choose witch Walgreen’s(I have one Walgreen’s with great cashiers)I shop at or witch deals to do based on this information. Just a side note I loved your picture with your new tote. You looked great. I also remembered that comment about your nails a few months ago. That comment took me by surprise. I think it is hard to put personal pictures on the web. You never know what some one hiding behind their computer will say. But your picture looked wonderful and I like so many loved putting a face to the woman behind Wild For Wags.

This was one of my best shops ever! Everything went through with no beepage. I did the 3 Dulcolax scenario, 2 Schick and a few other things. There is also a new $3/1 printable on the Ducolax web site today if you didn’t get it in the paper.

Sarah: I totally agree that it’s so nice to know that beautiful face behind Wild for Wags!!! I feel the same way, I greatly appreciate all the hard work that Christie do for all of us. WE LOVE YOU CHRISTIE!!!
And for sure my husband loves you even more, for all the money that we save, THANK YOU!!!!!

Just got back from Walgreens, I have found a new one that is closer to my home and has most of the stuff I want because apparently people dont buy anything with coupons in that town… ๐Ÿ˜‰ works for me!
I used the $8 for Dulcolax along with the $2 In store coupon and had no problems, they didnt adjust, didnt beep either… I will go back for more since my son uses it.
Thank you for everything you do!! ๐Ÿ™‚

is anyone have trouble with wags not takeing a q if it does not have
a watermark. i.e. smartsource and home solution news.

Julia September 13, 2010 at 12:03 pm

So if I buy 2 Dulcolax in one transaction it won’t beep? Maybe that was my problem yesterday? Hmmmm….

Reply

Christie September 13, 2010 at 12:13 pm

Julia – Your MQ for Dulcolax can’t exceed the value of the purchase price or it’ll beep. So if you buy 2 you really could only use 1 – $8 coupon and 1 – $3 coupon, plus the in ad coupon.

Patti September 13, 2010 at 5:27 pm

did the dulcolax JUST like you said. WOOT! to cover the overage I purchased 2 – Playtex 18 ct. tampons (1.98 with Wags coupon & $2 IP coupon), 1 Colgate toothpaste ($1.99 with $1.00 coupon – 9/12 SS? insert)& a small bag of M&M’s for 50 cents with Wag’s coupon. Got a $2 RR for the toothpaste. OOP 44 cents. Made $1.56. Thank you!!

Julie September 13, 2010 at 5:35 pm

Hi, what deal scenario would you suggest for somebody who doesnโ€™t have the $3/1 SS Q. Neither my 9/12 or 8/8 SS had one. I am still new and usually walk out of my Walgreens in tears (cashiers here are so not nice). Hope to have a game plan today !

Reply

Julie September 13, 2010 at 5:42 pm

Okay, nevermind me. Guess I should have read the comments first and I would have know that I can print a $3/1 directly from Dulcolax thanks to Kristie and know I can do Christie’s deal scenario !

Colleen Neel September 13, 2010 at 10:31 pm

The Dulcolax part of my transaction worked fine but not the schick intuition. I tried to buy 2 refills (love these razors) and not only did they not ring up BOGO but the 4/1 FB q wouldn’t scan (as I had read here) BUT also when the cashier and then manager tried to enter in the numbers, that didn’t work either. Said item not found. And the manager wouldn’t take it. So I cancelled my whole transaction and will have to try again I guess, once I can figure out what’s happening with that schick q- or come up with a new plan!

Just cam back from Wags and I tried doing the Dulcolax purchase like u said buying 3 plus buying Charmin @ $4.99 to cover the overage and didnt work. I handed over them in this order $3 MQ, $8 MQ and $8 MQ this one beeped. Ofcourse I told the cashier to cancel everything. I will be going to another Wags to see if it will work.

Reply

Christie September 14, 2010 at 10:52 am

Follow the scenario – $8, $8, then $3. Are you in a test market?

Reply

Julia September 14, 2010 at 12:38 pm

I was trying to buy something to cover overage, but it still beeped – since we don’t really use it, I will probably not worry about it. I was just going to get it to try it because it was such a great deal. Not a biggie either way – I still got a bunch of great deals!

gery September 14, 2010 at 1:59 pm

hey Christie, no I am not in a test market. I live in Miami Florida. But I will do it exactly how u have it. Will keep u updated.

Reply

Christie September 14, 2010 at 2:18 pm

Gery – Hmmm, strange. I really don’t think it should have beeped since your registers are just like mine. Give it another shot doing the $8, $8 and $3 and then the Wags Q. Let me know how it goes!

Reply

Julie September 14, 2010 at 2:14 pm

Christie, did you give them the Walgreens Q first or last ? I went yesterday and it was a no go. Going to try another one today…

Reply

Christie September 14, 2010 at 2:17 pm

Walgreens Qs are always last. ๐Ÿ™‚

Diana September 14, 2010 at 3:35 pm

I just got back from my shopping trip. It was great. I found an old $4 q for dulcolax, and had my 2 $8 ones. I handed all the coupons to the cashier. I was waiting til he scanned all my coupons before I handed him the Walgreens coupon but I had placed it on the counter next to my purse, well he picked it up and scanned it first, but it all went through fine with no beeps!! My colgate coupon beeped but they made it go through.
Thanks for all you do, this was my best shopping trip so far!!

How many Schick coupons can we legally print?

Reply

Christie September 14, 2010 at 7:04 pm

I used mine so I really need to see what’s on the coupon. If anyone happens to print one of the $4/1 let us know exactly what it says.

Jennifer September 16, 2010 at 9:48 am

I was wondering the same thing re: the Schick coupons. I printed off a bunch, but wasn’t sure if I should use them. The coupon states:

“CONSUMER: Coupon may not be transferred, sold, auctioned, altered, or reproduced. Limit one per coupon per purchase as specified above. Any other use is fraudulent. Counterfeits will not be honored.”

Reply

Christie September 16, 2010 at 11:08 am

Well, one per purchase isn’t the same as one per transaction. If you are purchasing 3 and using 3 coupons, that’s one per purchase. One per transaction would mean if you were buying 3 at a time you could only use one.

gery September 16, 2010 at 11:19 am

Just to inform you guys about the schick intuitin cpn. I did call them(corporate) and the FB Q is legit however they told me that it can only be used once so printed once. So if you printed 4, one will scan thru and the others will not..maybe that is why we r having problems.
