Normally I would agree with you but, there were several considerations I made.
I didn't know if the issue was 'just me', my device, whatnot. Of course I tried to test it.
I did put the note of the issue in the OP, because these codes are generally only 1-2 days in length, and I had already 'missed' about 10hrs of its live time when I found it.
Failure point is pretty early on, so its not as though people are loading carts (or even at the picture upload point), by the time they know its failing.
There is no money/returns involved, its a code for a freebie.
People generally prefer a 'lead time' when it comes to photo deals so they can plan. So if Walgreens had fixed the error within a few hrs, which is what I would have expected....people would have been prepared and not have to rush through their projects.
Walgreens codes are usually error free once they are released. The only issue with this one is the creation page, not the code itself.
People may know something like that they are able to use a code instore if not working online, and because thread exists they may be able to let others know.
I have never seen walgreens have such a long term site issue. Some sites extend a code when they realize there was issues redeeming.
So in summary, I took a risk/reward calculation here, either let people know or don't...and this time it does not appear to be panning out. For that of course I am sorry.

You know this made my day that you apologized for that! So many ppl never have the decency to admit when they are wrong. That's very commendable!

It is working for me now. I would like to take the chance to apologize. You made a very good post and all your points noted above were extremely valid. I just jumped the gun, criticized you, and clearly should not have, since it was likely my own user error. Thanks again for your patience and responding accordingly. Repped.

Chill out people. Sometimes sites or parts of sites go down for a little while. There may be nothing wrong with the deal. Just try again in a couple hours. The post even says this in red. Peace.

Still does not work. Sorry but if you have not been able to test and replicate then you should not be posting deals to waste others people's time.

So many different cards, hard to navigate. Also minimum I found was 9 counts. Tried "5x7 Folded Cards, Premium Cardstock 120lb" but didn't work.

Can you link to the exact card project you used? Seems like only a few may work or YMMV.
