   I went into a CVS this week. I wasn’t using any coupons so didn’t have any problems. But I noticed a sign that confused me. I can’t recall the wording now, but I did ask the clerk for clarification, and she told me that the sign was there for couponers. (This she said with disdain). The store would only accept 3 coupons at a time now. I wasn’t sure if this was just this store or a corporate policy. Anyone else see this as well?

  Our local Walgreens quit accepting coupons . online coupons. They had been having problems with fraudulent coupons. I believe each manager can choose what coupons to accept and how many.

  Melissa, my CVS will no longer take any digital coupons (including their own app) as well as any printed coupons. They will only accept newspaper coupons and the printed ones from their machine in store.

  I shop at 2 different CVS stores most of the time. One will take any coupon as long as it is not expired and there is no limit to how many I can use. The other store which I shop at less will not take any coupon that has any store logo on it at all plus if they beep and I have obviously purchased the correct item they still will not accept it.

  3 coupons at a time is probably to keep the lines from getting too long. Our store has only one cashier who checks out couponers on one register because there are only 2 people working at any given time. Although we are as courteous as possible, it does take time to ring up coupons. The mgr told us that because of the volume of sales on Sunday mornings, they are actually “supposed to” have 4 cashiers working, but they don’t have enough employees to actually aconlinemodate that. It takes forever, even with my “coupon buddy” and I taking turns and breaking up into smaller transactions.

   I do want to say a sincere thank you for returning to the old style post. It doesn’t go unnoticed by me that a significant amount of time is required for the team at hip to save to prepare these posts. I am certain that my savings is now in the thousands simply because I follow this blog exclusively and rely on the posts. For my family, it has meant a better quality of life and the opportunity to give to others when we would have been able to otherwise. Your time and effort is much appreciated!!!

    I think I’m about done with cvs. I had one $5 ecb that had expired for 3 days and when I noticed, I called the 800# and even spoke to a supervisor and they wouldn’t reissue it. Now I discovered that my other two $5 ecbs have also expired (yesterday) and I am so mad at myself! I know it’s my fault but wish they would cut me some slack if it is within the same week! I’m not going to bother shopping there. Only to get my scripts because it is literally across the street from me.

  IDK if this will help you, but it does for me. When I get home, I immediately cut the ECBs off the crt and I write all the values of the date they’re going to expire on my monthly calendar and cross off the ECBs that I used that trip. Then I file them in my coupon binder (cvs slot). Every Sat evening as I’m planning my shopping trip, I glance at my calendar to see what’s expiring and how much, that way I know what I have to roll. So this wk onlineing up, I don’t have any expiring, but the following wk (9/18) I have $32 to use! Wow, that’s a lot now that I’m adding it up! LOL. $10 of that is from the Beauty Club bucks! Must have had some great deals a month ago!! So now that I know what I have, I can start planning. There are quite a few deals I want to do this wk, so I’ll probably use them all up.
  I also keep track of Wag’s RRs on my calendar too.
  Getting back to your issue, I’d call CS again. Hopefully you’ll get a more sympathetic rep.

  To me this is no different than an expired coupon. You snooze you lose. They should they re- issue? Do you call a onlinepany and have them send you a new coupon because you forgot you had one at the bottom of your purse and now it’s expired? I just don’t get it

  But this isn’t a coupon, it’s “money” earned. Sometimes life gets crazy. When my son was in the hospital a few years ago with RSV, the last thing on my mind was shopping at CVS, and quite a few of my ECBs expired. A call the CS and they happily reissued them for me.

  I had a similar situation where $2 expired from Spring Savings. It was a onlineplete oversight and when I tried to get it reissued twice they said no. They said they are taking a hard line on coupons and expiration dates and that they are no longer allowed to reissue as of August 9, 2016. I said fine. Proceeded to get assistance on a coupon (one that I received in the mail) that didn’t deduct correctly and they said since they could not find the coupon, they could not help. Also, they said that the managers can make their own policies on coupons at stores. I expect the pendulum will swing far the other way before it settles in the reasonable area again.

    Grrrrr! Just came back from CVS and both the $1 off milk coupon and the $7 Tena coupon would not scan even though I purchased the qualifying products. The manager was at a loss why they wouldn’t scan, but he was powerless to override it. (of course I didn’t purchase them after that). I understand trying to control coupon abuse, but this is just plain wrong. We are in a very rural area and CVS, Winn Dixie and the Dollar stores are it for a 50 mile radius. They need to find a way to honor legitimate digital coupons when they won’t scan. One cashier told me they even had to refuse a CVS digital coupon when it wouldn’t scan-now that is just not right! onlinee on, CVS, step up to the plate and fix this, please!

    I went to CVS tonight and the cashier was so nice. I had an Angel Soft coupon that was VERY light( my printer was running out of ink and I didn’t realize it) and she said oh that won’t scan but I can put it in. I was so grateful. I live in a very rural area and we only have CVS, WalMart(which I despise) and Dollar General. I told her that they were my favorite store

    Just returned from three CVS stores looking for the Vichy Thermal water. Two of the three didn’t carry any Vichy items and the third store only had one and it was priced at over $14.00 – no where close to the price in the deal listed. I guess its a no go for me.

    My CVS in upstate NY has beonlinee “very tight” with their coupon policies. I am very friendly with the staff and used to shop their two times a week. I joked with my family that the assistant manager was my boyfriend. He would tell me about things that were being marked down and their own private sales. We have since “broken up” being that he is unable to make his own markdowns or take my coupons! Their manager used to take almost any coupon and would override the system if necessary. Now due to corporate policies, they are unable to, they cannot take expired ECB either. Now a lot of times there’s a problem with the app coupons and its beonlinee such an issue, its not even worth it for me to go there anymore. I’m very dissappointed and my ex told me their volume is way down.

    Hi all! Did anyone try the Vichy deal??? I went to the only store in Gainesville FL that carries it and I was so happy to see it was in stock! But then… I had a rough time since the coupons scanned but beeped so the cashier refused to push them through. I told him like 5 times these are genuine coupons I printed myself and he said they are not allowed to push them through and people in other stores here have lots their jobs because of that… did this happen to anyone else?

  Pepi September 11, 2016 at 5:46 pm MST

  This happened to me last time the sale was on and coupons were available. Due to the higher coupon value, cashier had to get an approval from manager to use it – which took close to 10 min, she was hiding somewhere in the back. He came back to let me know that manager allowed me to use only 1 because the others were copies. I asked to speak with the manager who was extremely condescending. I told her that accusing someone of coupon fraud without giving them a chance to explain themselves and also hiding in the back office is extremely disrespectful and unprofessional. I explained nicely that coupons aren’t copies of each other and showed her the unique coupons codes with every print. She didn’t even know about this!! She warmed up and allowed me to scan all 4, but they kept beeping and the system rejected them all. The cashier tried to override them manually but he was only able to push through a couple. I think the problem is that the coupon value is too high and they can’t do that with 4 coupons….Anyway, the whole experience was horrible and humiliating. I ended up walking out with my coupons. I don’t think I’ll try this deal again, sounds like the system doesn’t recognize the coupons so I don’t want to go through the same terrible experience.
  I let customer service at Vichy know that their coupon doesn’t work with retailers and people using it get treated badly because of alleged coupon fraud. Never heard back.

  Thanks Pepi! It’s good to hear other people’s stories… I am planning to call CVS customer service today (I tried yesterday but their office is closed on Sundays) and I hadn’t thought of calling Vichy customer service as well. I did feel as well the person checking me out (who I think had a “manager” tag) started to talk a bit condescending to me and then wanted to finish the transaction without the Vichy items and therefor wasting almost $3 in ECBs, and when I tried to explain what was happening, he didn’t want to cancel the transaction! I just asked for my coupons back and left. Not going back to that CVS and not wasting my time with Vichy $7 coupons anymore

  If your store can’t manually enter coupons, don’t waste ink to print Vichy coupons.
  I know this coupon definitely beeps and my stores are anti-beep so I skip this deal. It’s not worth the hassle. 🙁

  Hi! Joyce, Yes you can use both of them and your total should be $14 because when you use first one you will left with $12 and you can use another one too.I have got two $3 off 15 so on $18 I have used them together couple of times. Hope that helps.

  Per the coupon policy – Can I use multiple coupons within a transaction?
  Yes, as long as all of the coupons meet their qualifications.
  Examples:
  • Two $3 off $15 coupons for purchases that are $30.00 or higher

  Sometimes the register will accept 2 $/$$ IF one is generic based and the other specific brand based. Like I had $3/15 Shave purchase and a $3/15 Fusion or Venus Razor or Refill that I was able to stack. I’ve never had the register accept 2 of the same offers. Even though people post it works, I think their cashiers are just pushing the q’s through.

  Sandy September 13, 2016 at 8:56 am MST

  Dee/Mel are right. Per the coupon policy, you need to spend $24. Maybe you spend $18 and cashiers help push the coupons through, but this is NOT the correct way to stack the same CVS coupons.
