Calgary Coupon Hunters *HEADS UP*

[LauraV]

Heads up! I went to Huntington (I think that's what it's called) Stupidstore today and picked up some stuff for the Tropicana mail-in rebate. I couldn't find the forms anywhere in the store, so after paying for my stuff I went up to Customer Service to see if they had any. It turns out that while it was in the flyer, they never got the coupons in store. Her solution was to mark my bill, and then give me a $25 gift card. Woooohoo! No mail in rebate and I can do it more than once!

Lucky you!! This is my regular RCSS that I shop at and they DO have the MIR forms, they are on a display for Quaker in the middle aisle. I picked up a few the other day. But the way you got do to it is WAY better, I just woulnd't count on them doing it for everyone as they do have the forms there (even if their staff doesn't know that ).

They also have PM'd Revlon nailpolish for $2.99 (limit of 1) and you can use the $2.00 instore coupon incase anyone didn't get enough nailpolish with the Sally Hansen deal.

Does anyone know if you can use the $4.00 off pampers coupon (WUB diapers and wipes) when buying Splashers?? Splashers are diapers for the water so it should work right? Has anyone tried?

Does anyone know if the sunridge RCSS or the Huntington RCSS has the minute rice $2 coupon zone up in the store???

Yes, Huntington does. I got some $1.00 rice there the other day by combining the save.ca with the instore coupon!

i notice the Huntington superstore has better deals compared to the signal hill superstore (as in 50% off deals and what not) i was there on Sunday (the Huntington one since my parents live close to there) and i saw a bunch of things on the 50% off rack that i could of gotten close to free with my coupons i didnt have the time to go through them or pick up anything i was in a bit of a rush

So, maybe more bad news on the LD front. I just got back from there (Beddington)and was denied the use of the $10.00 LD gift card offer WUB 4 Aveeno products. The cashier (which is a major coupon hater), called over the manager and she said that all the rules have changed. You can't use ANY coupons with an instore coupon. And she said the manufactures are changing the wording on the coupons so they cannot be stacked (which I know she is just guessing at, because she said, "see how it says One coupon per purchase, that means you can only use one", I said "they have always said that and pretty much every coupon does."). She said this is a new policy that is being implemented. Anyhow, she said that things are changing. Then when she walked away, the cashier says, "be happy with what you have got because they are not going to allow any stacking anymore and the rules are changing, and that "you people" have done it too much. But she still did the Aveeno coupons that I had, but read them all first, looking for something.
The weird thing is I was in last week and the assistant manager helped me and was really nice and I told him how great the staff has all been with stacking and he said that they are really trying to encourage stacking and if I ever have a problem just to let him know.
Now I really don't know where they stand and it sounds like they don't really either.
I will be so sad if they stop but I can say I probably will never shop at LD since their prices really aren't great!

My GF went there this morning and had the same issue.... left everything behind and went to brentwood... not one issue... So are things changing, and if so what?

I plan on attempting to meet up with one of my old employees that now works for LD... She will let me have is straight... I am sure it is all interpretation of the rules as so many locations are doing different things.

Laura
can you call that assistant manger and ask what is up?

[Haylaraine]

Yes, Huntington does. I got some $1.00 rice there the other day by combining the save.ca with the instore coupon!

Thanks!

Another Q: Has anyone had troubles with the free gift you get WUB 2 L'oreal Hair expertise? I went to the London Town square location and had no problem stacking coupons for the shampoo and getting the free treatment.

It so frustrating that each cashier and each store is so different with their so called "policy"

Hi all, I'm not on here much anymore but thought I would remind everyone to watch their receipts. I went shopping this past weekend and 14 out of 96 items rang in at wrong price.

[cheapy]

I was just at the LD in Brentwood and had no problems getting the hair treatment.

Huntington RCSS has Sally Hansen Hard as Nails nailpolish marked down to 2.79 less 2.00 instore coupon pad right under all the polishes. Total is .83 with GST.

Today all the managers are running around (Big Wigs). Had a nice talk with bakery person about the price of flour going up. Inspired me to purchase two 10kg bags today. Sale price 5.97 for unbleached, limit 2. My post is in the brag section.

Happy Shopping.

I don't know him well enough to call him, but if I see him next time I am in, I will for sure ask him! Maybe FreeFreed can get some answers through her source, I am interested to hear!!

I am hoping it is just one of those things that will die down and not much will change. - Let's hope!
