Here's the link for the weekly ad:

https://www.walgreens.com/offers/...p/weeklyad



Since there aren't tons of posts in the weekly threads, what do you think of changing to a continuous running thread, like Target and Kroger. This would enable us to read overlapping weeks' deals easier.

Your opinions are valuable!
Things can stay as they are; or, things can change. If deals improve, if we do change, the weekly threads could return.

Discussions are useful. Walgreen's shopping is certainly not what it was a few years ago.

Your comment cannot be blank.

I would try at the store. The phrase I have had good luck with is "As a one time courtesy, can you add $10 in WCR to my account?" And then just briefly explain that they were out of stock and your booster didn't apply.

Don't try to explain the whole big thing because it is too confusing.
Good luck and let us know what happens!

If I ever shop at Walgreens again (if there is a deal one can't refuse for items I really need) and there are redeemable coupons or thresholds involved, gonna put the items in my cart, go to the store early in the morning, verify enough items on the shelf, place the order, wait until they pack it and pick it up. Smilie

Or not bother at all….

No interest in playing a slot machine with the junk software.

Agreed because they messed up. So they should be nice at least this once.

Okay Waggers, idk why I'm having a dilemma but here goes. WWYD:

Placed large online pickup order. (Mistake 1 😂)

Manufacturers coupons totaled way more than $40. I paid $50 in wcr and like .58 oop

Of course 2 items oos & not substituted, despite me marking allow.

They adjusted my order so it was all $43.xx wcr and $0.00 oop

Per a convo previous with a rep, he said you must have at least .01 oop for the system to award the booster points despite your coupon total. Wish I could have him in speed dial.

I got back $19 wcr and $9 for the "redeemed" but cancelled coupons.

Still leaves me $10 in the hole. Tried chatting & explaining your cs but I'd have better luck getting my dog to understand the MQ count towards threshold thing.

My dilemma being -$10: should I return it all or chalk it up to win some lose some? WWYD

My 2nd story toothpaste addition will have to wait a bit longer.
The issue is CS has gone way down hill since Roz took over. They act like it's a crime to help you now. They use to be helpful but now they are refusing to even add DQs as points without teeth pulling. Some of them will say they did but never do. Your best option is the store. If that doesn't work, and you can work a better deal, I'd return it. I tell my store in a heartbeat, if I don't get what I'm expecting, I'm returning.

I agree with sugraray99 -prob best to try at the store and ask nicely without too many details. If you don't want to go to the store then use the live chat on their website. I always get points from them that way. I will just sit there until they give them to me laugh out loud I usually do the online chat thing but yesterday I tried the Oral B toothbrush deal. I forgot they all had to be the pro clean or whatever it was. There were only four of that kind left and I don't like clearing the shelf. I grabbed two, and then two of the other kind of Oral B that was on sale. I didn't get all of the points back. I sat in the car and debated whether I should just go home and use the live chat or go back in the store. I really didn't want to go back in so I ran another errand. After that I decided I might as well just go back in the store. So I went in the store and tried to explain to the young cashier what happened. She didn't want to do a total refund and she said it didn't matter if I went and exchanged the two brushes. She said she would just have the $4 in points added to my account. She called twice for a manager to come up to help. Then came a very young man (ugh, he's young enough to be my son) and she told him I was missing $4 in points. So as he's typing it in the system, I'm chatting with them about how their new pin pad threw me off (Yep, they got new pin pads there and it didn't even recognize my card so I had to type in my phone numberRoll Eyes (Sarcastic)). I'm being nice and polite. I look back and there's a line of at least six people now. He finished and said that he put $5 in my account. Umm alrighty then. I thanked him and walked away amazed. It was pretty painless. I was expecting a hard time.

Nothing really good today at wags. I spend $14 with tax and got back $25 with reg. points and boosters. rolled that into app deals to get money back.

eta if you buy the clearance VO5 conditioner, the .50/2 DQ will not work.

So wags has updated their website and you can no longer look under account activity to see exactly what points you earned for each produc or bonuses.

Is yours still showing it today? Mine is now only showing how much I earned in total but not the individual breakdown like it had been doing.
