Those of you that are in the Mobile, AL area are going to have a hard time doing the FREE Sobe Deal I spoke about last week. It seems that our district manager has decided that when we use a manufacturer B1G1 coupon on top of a B1G1 sale we are comitting coupon fraud. No, we are not, but getting him to see the light and understand our terminology is not easy.

I spoke with David, our district manager, this evening and explained that we are “buying” one, we just are not buying it with money. We couponers see our coupons as cash, and to the store that is what they are good for. The manufacturer reimburses the store PLUS some for each coupon they redeem, so in their eyes we are buying the product, just buying it with a coupon. However David does not see it that way. So if you are trying to use the Buy 1 Get 1 Sobe coupon on the sale, you will have to purchase one- then get 2 free. I am not sure where his logic is in that but this is what was stated to me.

If you would like to call the Mobile, AL CVS distrcict office to speak with them directly about this matter you can call 251-661-1450. I hope we can get through to them and help them realize that this is a real-deal and to accept our coupons!

Thanks My Pet Savings!

How to decode the CVS matchups:

• Look for the GREEN for the items with Extra Care Bucks
• Look for the RED for the items that are FREE

Click HERE to view the ad online. Check out the ESM Coupon Help Page for assistance with the wording and the layout of the matchups.

 Go HERE to get your CVS card. Be sure to get more than one for your household.

Why? Because once you have reached the “limit” (stated in the weekly ad next to the product) you will not be able to do this deal anymore.

How do they know? Because they keep up with it by you scanning your card. If you have multiple cards, you can use another when you reach the “limit” on one. :)
