Kylie

Co-leader for CVS

Thank you Didie.

Hi.
I have a random question to ask. Have anyone of you ever felt that cashiers dont treat you well if you are using coupon?
I recently had such a problem. I started couponing 3 months back and i have been going to the same CVS for the last 4 years and get my precriptions filled there as well and my family's too. I have always been treated very well but since i started using coupons i feel when i go for my turn to check out, the cashiers look at me as if they are saying in there head"oh, here she comes again with her coupons to get free stuff"lol.. I feel that..

Last week one of the cashiers put a circle on my receipt when i bought a perfume and wrote $18 used in coupons, and then the other day i had to return something else bought on that receipt and i had so much problem as my receipt on scanning said that there was already a return made on that receipt, which i didnt understand why it would say so. and the manager of that store(other cvs) said why does your receipt has a circle ,we put a circle when we return something . anyhow i contacted the customer care regarding this situation and a Manager of my store contacted me and apologized and said they want to offer me a $10 gift card and will put in in the front of the store and give me the next time i go. That was very polite of him. Today when i went back, nobody gave me any gift card or anything and when i did the pantene deal the cashier told me when you are using 2 BOGO on 4 shampoos, what do you wanna use the 3 off 2 pantene coupon on. and i told her i can use it according to the policy , she said no for both pantene and biore coupn. I came bk home printed the cvs policy and went back to show her and she refunded my $3 for pantene and $2 for biore with no sorry or any apology .I didnt care for the money when i went back, but i wanted her to know her stores coupon policy. I have written an email to corporate to let them know how i am being treated on using coupons. I have decided not go back to the same CVS again. I think the manager will call me again but i want him to know how disrespected i feel when i use coupons in his store.

Have anyone of you ever gone through something like this for using coupons?

I go through this everyday. They look at me like oh no here comes the crazy lady! I'm very polite and smile and say hi to everyone in the store but I feel them watching me and judging me but personally I don't care or let it bother me, i'm doing something I love and saving my family tons of money. I feel they just don't understand or have had a bad experience with other couponers so it makes them think we're all crazy and trying to scam them!

I Coupon so I can Cruise!!!

Next up - May - Going to Belize, Mahogany Bay, Isla Roatan & Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands!!!

Well, mine is the opposite of your story. All cashiers in my store liked me specially female cashiers, they always treated me nicely. They even asked for my name and asked how I learned this habbit, I told them to google WUC. Even the female manager was so fond of me she would offer to watched over my daughter while I go shopping. Maybe because I'm a man and it is unusual for a male to be frugal.
But now there is a new male manager who was so arrogant, even his staff do not like him. This manager thinks like he owns the entire CVS so I just make sure that he is not around while I go pillaging his store.

Okay...might be a stupid question,but im curious..if i buy $100 worth of beauty in one day,how will I get the reward? two 5 eb q's or a 10? just wondering not that ill ever buy 100 in one trip..though I did buy a ton of Pantene q's LOL

Last Sunday I bought about $100 worth of perfume, plus about $40 beauty stuff had about $10 spent already so Tuesday I got an ECB for $15 dollars. HTH.

oops...

Yep... That happened to me a few times. I try to space it out, if I can. It is so hard to spend the larger ECBs, for me.

Just got back from the store that told me they activated early, well yeah they don't. Bummer!!
