So I went to Walmart today to try out the new policy...

[Chantel]

And they JUST got it today, but I was given the go-ahead! Apparently I was the first one to try it, and we here on SC found out about it before Walmarts even did!

They're going to do it and honor the cash-back/basket price policy, but until all the employees know what they're doing, print yourself off a copy and take it along It'll make things go faster.

A great one is the Olay travel size lotion, I believe it was 1.57 and use the $5 WUB2 coupon from the Brandsaver insert.

Glad to hear it went smoothly...thanks for being the guinea pig...LOL...

what all did you end up getting? and did you get cash back? or did you just put it towards your other purchaces?

[lilkaiser]

whats the new policy?????

[Chantel]

We got just the 4 of the olay travel sizes, 2 free st ives facial scrubs (no overage) and some regular groceries, put the 3 bucks extra towards our purchases. Didn't go too far, but looking forward to seeing how I can make this all work in my favor. Hopefully TLC noobs don't catch wind of this and go "MONEYMAKER" and clear out everything they can just for cash back.

I went there yesterday to try it out, I took the policy with me in hand and had to talk to the manager and go up to customer service... they read the 1 per customer thing on the nivea cream but said I could do it in multiple transactions.. I bought 10, used 10 coupons and walked out of there with 10 creams and 8.80$ in my pocket. this will NOT be the ordinary for me.. I will use my coupons towards the basket price but.. I wanted to try it out with the cash back first.. and it was great.. they were awsome.. once the wrapped there head around what they were doing!

[Chantel]

Awesome! Since walmart is a huge store (and I've heard talk about a supercenter being built on the rez) I think there will be more than enough clearance deals and moneymakers to go around so we don't have to stick to travel size everything all the time.

I wonder if supercenters do 50% off like RCSS does? Dream come true if they do!

[roxybabe39]

For FPCs are they taking the max value off?
