Randalls Living Well and FREE Ham Transaction!
Okay, last night I realized that I had not bought my ham for the FREE ham/turkey up to $20 rebate posted HERE . So I headed over to Randall's to do the Living Well Promotion.

I did not feel well and was exhausted so I didn't really think everything out so yes, i am sure it could have cost less, but my only goal was to buy the 3.7 lb ham since yesterday was the deadline and so I decided to get the rest while I was there.

A Little Light on Walgreens Coupon Policy or No Coupon Policy
Earlier I posted HERE about a Walgreens experience I had that turned out fine, but did end up with a phone to Corporate Customer Service and their explaination of what Walgreens honors and adjusts when it comes to coupons. Let me also state upfront that I LOVE WALGREENS!! I think with the Register Rewards they really have great savings!! Having said that.... Afterwards a reader of mine who has had not the best experience with Walgreens was so happy to hear about my conversation this morning with customer relations that she headed to Walgreens with coupons in hand ready to conquer the world of savings and FREEBIES and then..... BAM she gets an unfriendly coupon cashier plus manager and calls Corporate Customer Relations regarding overage and they said we will get back with you (which they will), but did not confirm what the Corporate Customer Service rep had told me earlier with regard to overages. I can understand the frustration because although my transactions have gone through, there has definitely been something in the air. This is the response I left in the comment section, but then I thought I should share it with everyone."Every cashier/manager at every store is different, some push through, some don't. Although, there is no OFFICIAL policy in writing (trust me we have all tried to get one) they do honor multiple manufacturer coupons and that is when the 800 number comes in handy while at the store and there should be no argument. On the overage and adjusting down is always a sticky one, but I have never had a problem with adjusting down (knock on wood). I have found a store and checkers I like and that are coupon friendly. That is the same situation at all drug/grocery stores. I do LOVE Walgreens, their managers and cashiers (just some more than others)! So I would stick with the ones you like and avoid the ones that tend to be a problem. My friend Beth had an issue with her Walgreens and after a few phone calls and corporate customer service intervention she has not had a problem since. Sorry for any problems you all have experienced, but don't let it be discouraging. Trust me patience pays off in BIG SAVINGS!!!!"
I then read another blogger's post on the subject and laughed out loud understanding what she meant. fabulesslyfrugal posted:
"If you are a beginning couponer do NOT expect a shopping trip like this. Expect to get a grumpy cashier. Expect to have half the hot items on your list out of stock. Expect a few coupons to beep every time, requiring an override, tying up the line and making your embarrassment grow. Expect to be harassed, overcharged, glared at. It happens, and probably will continue to happen, all the time. So celebrate an amazing shopping trip like this, but expect a few that will make you want to rip your hair out. I, for one, will not judge you if I see you in a crumpled heap in the back of the store, frazzled, frustrated, and crying alongside your wailing children. I've been there too. And I promise you this, although I have no cure for screaming children (FYI-I hear candy always helps), it does get easier."
Could have not blogged it better myself.
Walgreens Clearance Soft & Dri FREEBIES! and Coupon Policy
FREESaved 29.94
Had to take my son to the dentist for a filling (Yuk!) and they told me to just run an errand because it would take about 30 minutes. There was a Walgreens around the corner and I needed to buy some pencils & markers for school for him. Low and behold, look what I found in the clearance section.
6 Woman's Soft & Dri Pulse Deodorant (2oz.) - $4.99 on clearance for $1
- (6) $1 MQ from 04-19-09 SS
Final Cost = FREE
Now remember - every Walgreens clearance section varies - usually the clearance is up to 75% off and so at one store it may be marked down 25% another 75%. It may not be clearanced at all. It is definitely a hit or miss.
To add another comment - something must be in the air because the cashier proceeded to tell me that she would use multiple coupons this time, but they were only allowed to accept 4 same manufacturer coupons and how they had just had a special meeting about coupons and how many they will accept. I said, really, may I speak to your manager. She then told me that their manager was unavailable. So I had a feeling she was not telling me the truth and called corporate customer relations to ask if this was the case. Corporate proceeded to tell me that it WAS NOT THE CASE and took down the store information to call the manager to explain coupon policy. I then asked her about adjusting down for coupons that are over the product amount and she said that yes, they should adjust down, but would not give overage. If you have any problems, have cell in hand and call 1-800-Walgreens. They were extremely apologetic and said that they would correct the situation with that particular store. FYI

Saved $206.82
Okay, to begin once again the savings can be decieving. $160 of the savings are from the glucose monitors, but those monitors also earned me $10 in Register Rewards and will be donated this week to a diabetic clinic here in Houston. Big THANKS goes out to Lanette for letting me have her Bayer coupons!!
******Also, SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT TO NOTE!!! My cashier was extremely nice and helpful and did not have any problem pushing through or adjusting down any of the coupons I had.
