YMMV on expired MQs. Since it will scan, so it depends on if you cashier will allow it. We don't encourage using expired MQs because stores may not get reimbursed for them. However, there are conflicting stories about when stores do send their coupons in for reimbursement.

Getting TQs or MQs deducted after purchase is YMMV - depends on your store and your CS. It doesn't hurt to try and see if it will work.

Are you sure about the Olay? I thought it was P&G?
Quote from Devilmomma :
Olay is P&G. Some of the Dove is Unilever. Smilie They have Dove bars in the trial section also. Double check the bar codes, I'm not sure if they are 5 11111, not all Dove is.
The Olay had 11111 on it, as did the Caress. I did notice that, like some of the Dove products, some of the Caress had different starting numbers. Some Olay could be that way too.

wave OMG! Soooo, I JUST got off the phone with my GF who has the SIL that is getting promoted to LOD, AND, my gf said that she went into T yesterday with her BOGO Febreze and Tyson Q's, AND got shot down, in a BAD way. This is what she told me: She went to a line with a young girl, who was apparently new, and she started scanning the Febreze Q's, and immediately called over the store manager who was at the next register.

Anyways, he came over and told my gf that: "You cannot use these coupons this way, it is stealing and the next time she does it she will be prosecuted. Then he told her that she didn't even get the right products on the Q's. He said she would be arrested if she did it again." OMG. She seriously was in there maybe 3x with me, and last time with her SIL. SHIT. Someone ratted on us. They told the SIL some stuff and told her that if she repeated ANY of it to any couponers that she knows, she WILL be fired.

SO, she can't tell her own SIL what they said!!!!! SHIT. I am NOT going in there. F-in peckers.

When they say she can't "feed the couponers" do you think they are investigating?? But if so, wouldn't they have arrested HER right there? AGGGGGHHHH! EEK!

She wouldn't have any way of knowing it was her that told it if the info got out.

If it's something you really want to get rid of, use up one of your no receipt returns but realize then they'll know who you are
I read a while back they were getting rid of no receipt returns, so that may not work anymore. I agree, just keep it and chalk it up to experience.

How would they know who told 'the couponers' this informaiton? Unless they had a way to prove it, I don't see how they could know. So I would think she could tell her SIL without any worry unless the thinks the SIL would secretly record her.

I personally (just my personal comfort level) wouldn't use a febreeze coupon if I didn't buy febreeze, not saying I am judging others for doing it, to each his own. Now, if the coupon seeks out the wrong price to auto deduct, well that isn't my problem if it finds a higher priced item and I don't notice it.

On another note can anyone please tell me if they have used the whiskas pouch bogo coupon and tell me if it is similar to the sheba coupon? PLEASE, any assistance would be appreciated!

Well then, they shouldn't have been so outright rude to her! Yep, I would avoid it like the plague....

Any advice on sheba vs. whiskas coupons?

I would avoid the store, but really, how are they going to know if she tells? Do they have a bug on her? Doubtful. It is just a scare tactic.

Do not go to that store for a while. Next time you go, don't use any q's or have a small pile of perfectly legit q's. Stay away.
