Hack to get around $10 min

On a computer 🖥 Is easier than a phone.

1) sign into your account.
2) add the item or items you want to buy.
3) add ANYTHING else to hit $10.
4) proceed to checkout where you are entering your card information.
5) copy and paste link to a new window (doesn't need to be incognito) or just duplicate window.
6) go BACK to delete the item you don't want in one window, go forward to confirm checkout after deleting in the other.

I actually got lucky this time! They substituted for the Q-tips brand (500 and non-plastic, which I prefer). Miracles do happen (on very rare occasions)!😄

That is lucky. Mine NEVER substitutes even if you request it and say anything

Correct! It's more common for them to cancel orders vs. finding a substitute! That's why I suggested going to the store and finding either the original item (it might actually be there) or finding a substitute and then place the order from the store (and actually bring the item to the front of the store). It's unfortunate that you'll be doing their work for them, but at least you'll leave there with something vs. nothing (hopefully). Just make sure that you check off "any brand" before you place the order. In this case, the 500 Q-tips brand is likely available and a better option.

Yep! Sometimes, you need to actually intervene physically, instead of always relying on a computer or a phone. Sounds bizarre, right?

Stock will vary as this is a clearance item. You could try clicking "check other stores" to see if one nearby as it. My default store is OOS, but most in my area do have stock when I click on that.

It may specify "unavailable" at a particular store but you need to search other stores in your area (if they exist). Use the "only this item" option. If you can find one (or more, if you desire), place the order...but check off "any brand" on the substitutions page and type in "Please substitute with Q-tips brand - 500 count". This way, if they're actually paying attention, you'll get the better of the two (if that's what you prefer). The regular sticks are far better than the plastic sticks and I'd question the quality of the Walgreens brand for this item (IMO).

Sure you haven't!....even though Walgreens pickup orders tend to be among the most unreliable in the industry! Next "last word", please?

It doesn't specify that this is a "clearance" item. It's frequently either an overstock situation or a change in packaging design (or both) that drops the price drastically like this.

Thank you for the tip (giggity) ... My might have differed due to Paypal use but I had to keep the payment page open (once signed-in the PayPal page) and open a new page with just the shopping cart page, delete it there and then click pay as per your instructions. Seems like it worked.
