Walmart/ Target thread

[ashrae9216]

My mom worked at Walmart too as a cashier and she said they are very strict! She said there is alot of fraud and people also trying to use expired coupons. She once took a .25 one by mistake and got written up! She offered to just give the quarter but they wouldn't do it. She reminds me on to look at my coupons, not that I try to do that but she says the cashier could get in trouble.

I am not trying tpom cheat anyone.. I just feel that being a stay at home means my job (on top of the 100 million other things) is to save money as much as possible. With the economy- you would think people, ESPECIALLY WALMART would get this! I just hope I never get a cashier who refuses my coupons..

If you really want to work this, you can also price match. Recent example for me:

Herbal Essences shampoo and conditioner. It can't remember the exact price, but it was over $3. This week another store had them 2/$5 and I had a $3 off two coupon. That is $1.00 each. Cheaper than Suave!

YAY for just finding this thread. I have already taken advantage of all of these offers prior to this thread (from another forum I visit)... but I can add something!

Go to your Walmart Portrait Studio and ask for the "coupon bag" (Trust me, they all will know what you are talking about). They often sit these outside after hours in a box that says "Free take one". If they are open, just ask for one.
There is a Proctor & Gamble (P&G) insert in there with $3 off ANY Cascade product.
Walmart has their 20ct Cascade Action Pack's for $4. So you can get the Action Packs for $1.

Also, I think since there is a LOT of chatter in this thread, and deals are hard to see posted, that all deals should be BOLDED and also wrote in the title of each post.

Thanks OP!!!!
Does anyone know if babiesrus/toysrus take/combine manufacturer's coupon with theirs?
The reason I asked is because they have these coupons for:
$2 off ALL 7th gen or Earth's Best diaper packs
$2 off ANY 3 baby wash, lotion, shampoo, powder, diaper rash items

they use to on diapers. Ask at the front desk when you go in.

I found this in the clearance aisle of toys at Walmart. They had lots of them. They were originally $15+. Really cute. Comes with a necklace, too. My little girl is always asking for a "Barbie." She doesn't care what kind! Also great for a birthday gift.

Which store? WalMart or Target?

At Target- I took a Bandaid $1 off manu coupon from one of the inserts and got FREE trial size bandaids today (I got Hello Kitty but I hear some are carrying Diego)

At Target- https://www.aquafresh.com/freesample.promo?mn=cmVnaXN0cmF0aW9u Go to that website and print the coupon, you'll get free toothpaste (trial size) w/ overage)

Did you have 13 coupons for the toothbrushes, or did you print them? How did this work?

 

[abc123mom]

I have made a copy and stuck it in my coupon binder

Thank you for starting this! I would love to see pictures or a description of how you organize your coupon binder. I find the idea of juggling all these coupons a bit overwhelming. Thanks!

You need one manufacturer coupon per item there was no target printables used in my transactions.

I wanted to add that on this particular WalMart trip I only had $22 plus a handful of change in my wallet. The total before coupons was $63.04 - sometimes I forget that you might need real money to pay for things too.

Target only takes their own printables and only one per transaction. They changed that policy awhile back.

As for walmart there is what they are supposed to do and then what they make up along the way . *rolling my eyes* I avoid walmart like the plague but if it's free I will stop in if I have to. Just keep the policy with you and ask for a manager if you have an issue.

Some grocery stores and target and cvs also sell the buddies soaps for $1 so I take those coupons elsewhere to avoid the issue. They are great soap!

When did Target's coupon policy change of using one manufacturer and one target coupon for the same item? I haven't done this for awhile but didn't realize they changed (I know the following website still touts the "old" policy. http://blog.al.com/frugalmom/2008/01/i_got_a_comment_the.html)

Niether my Toys R Us or Target will take the internet printed coupons. But both will let you combine a store coupon with a manufactor coupon.
My WalMart will though and I think CVS and Winn Dixie. I am going to those tomorrow.
