1. If you also have a BOGO FREE coupon for the same item, you can pick up 2 items, use the BOGO coupon, and get BOTH items FREE! This worked for me with the Bic Hybrid deal at Walgreen's yesterday. I received 2 items for FREE! (a $13.98 value). But I did have my favorite cashier!
2. If you have two manufacturer's coupons (say two $1/1 coupons) for that item, you should be able to pick up 2 items, get one FREE, and ALSO use BOTH coupons (one for each item). The store still gets reimbursed for the coupons, so they should happily oblige.
Still unsure? Read the following correspondence that a Hip2Save reader received from CVS after she complained about an encounter when the cashier wouldn't honor her coupon:
Thank you for contacting CVS/pharmacy. Your e-mail has reached the Customer Relations Department. We appreciate the time you have taken to contact us with your inquiry.
In the case where a particular item is on sale for “buy one get one free” (BOGO), you are only allowed to use one manufacturer’s BOGO coupon. For instance, if Revlon lipstick is on sale for BOGO, you can use one manufacturer’s BOGO coupon. You would get both items free and pay any applicable tax. We reserve the right to limit quantities. If our store is running a sale for BOGO, you can use two manufacturer’s coupons for a specific dollar amount off. For example, if Revlon lipstick is on sale at our store for BOGO, you can use two $1.00 off Revlon lipstick manufacturer coupons.
Again, thank you for contacting us. We value your business and look forward to serving you in the future. Have a wonderful evening!
Sincerely,
CVS/pharmacy
Customer Relations
It's always a good idea to keep your favorite stores' coupon policies on hand when you shop. Again, avoid confrontation at all costs, and remember, you DON'T have to buy the product if they won't cooperate!
