I also tend to think that your initial post about the deal was pretty ethically challenged. Now that you know it is a valid deal, that is another matter entirely. But the fact that you thought it was a glitch and still posted to the internet the “mistake” for all to capitalize on is dubious to say the least. If the fact that I disagree with you is interpreted as hate mail, so be it.

I posted here before I saw your update. Sorry you got so many nasty comments when you were just trying to help people out!

There is nothing dishonest about this and it’s not a glitch. It’s an overlap in catalina deals:
*Get $5 RR when you buy three Wyeth products (ends 12/31)
*Get $5 RR when you buy $10 in Wyeth products (ends 1/31)
*Get $10 RR when you spend $20 (ends 1/31)

HTH!

I also do not think it is dishonest. If I were a cashier, I would notify management of the *possible* glitch.

I had 3- $3 Robitussin printable coupons left from awhile ago. Because I could not get any others to print, I bought 3 bottles to use the buy $10 deal this morning. I got 2 -$5 RR back. Paid $3, got $10 — not too bad.

Thank you Mercedes!

FYI….The Robitussin coupon site only let me print out 2x, BUT…I tried to register my husband, and it took!

Normally, these sites monitor the computer and the printer, but this coupon deal is tied to the registrant. By registering my husband’s e-mail acct. and then my son’s, I was able to get 5 Rob. coupons….

Just a heads up girls!

I did the Robitussin/Dimetapp deal tonight! I am going to try to find the popcorn at some of the other Walgreens in the area tomorrow!
Thanks for posting these things!
I agree that we are not cheating here. I have NEVER shopped at Walgreens before all this couponing stuff and now I’m a regular so I think they are happy to get any new customers they can.

Hi, I do not believe this is a “dishonest” deal whatsoever. For one, Walgreens is still making a killing on what we initailly spend out of pocket to even get the register rewards. And two, how is it the customers fault if THEIR computers are the ones “glitching” or malfunctioning? Couponers have a bad rap as it is, especially with unfriendly coupon stores so it buggs me to see other couponers condeming each other over deals that are just trying to save your family the little money they have.

Hi! I’m a little new at printing the online coupons. How are you getting the Dimetapp Coupons to print more than once? Do you have to register each time? Thanks!

I can’t even get the Robitussin/Dimetapp coupons to print! The site must be bogged down, or something is wrong with my computer ( I tried both Firefox and IE).

I see your point, but if it is a glitch, I’m sure Walgreens doesn’t want thousands of blog readers knowing about it.

I’m still new at this stuff so don’t mind me…just my initial reaction when I saw the post;) Still a coupon noob here! LOL
