Roll call! Let's get back to what we do!

question for coupon experts:

i have 2 bogo free coupons for gerber feeding accessory product, how do i use that wisely? do i need to actually take home 4 items, pay for 2. or can i pull off taking home 2 items for free? or 3 items, pay for 1?

sorry if it's a stupid question Paperbag
Quote from annicus :
If there's a bogo deal for the same product, you could get all 4 free.
Could anybody explain to me how to get all 4 for free? The math doesn't look right to me.. ConfusedLMAO

If it is on sale for B1G1, one is free from the store. Use your coupon to get the 2nd free. Repeat.

when a store has a b1g1 promotion, you pay for 1 item. get the other free. If you use a b1g1 coupon from the manufacturer, the manufacturer reimburses for the value of 1 item when there are 2 items total in the transaction. So the value from the manufacturer is applied to the price you would have paid for the 1st item in the b1g1 transaction.

This only works if the store accepts the b1g1 coupons on b1g1 transactions. Rite aid changed their policy to not accept it anymore i believe.

CVS still honors it. Walgreens-i've had to argue with them over it.

darn! it won't let me buy the CVS deal b/c I don't live in that area ...determined by zip code.
Sorry about that. I've never seen a LS deal that wasn't available to all. Will any zip code in the area work, or does the zip code have to match your address to use the certificate? If you just need a zip code to order it, I'll send you mine. (I don't shop at CVS, so I haven't looked into the terms.)

hug VS rarely shows me love with codes. You would think they'd consider the fact that people on the internet share stuff like this, & try to treat all customers equally. I don't know how they determine who to send certain codes to.

i got 1 in a vs email i once purchased an egc from. and 1 in another email i once sent an egc to. that's all that i got. so if you only have a couple of accts, chances are you won't get one. Frown i didn't get any in any of the accts i actually use.

Your post reminded I had used some other emails for egcs a couple years ago. None of them have VS emails at all. Maybe, it's been too long. Confused Oh well, I'll have to decide if I still want to order for the panties & 2 SRCs. I hate placing $100 orders though. Sadwalk
