Hello. I was wondering if anyone was able to use personalized coupon for 2.00 off any laundry detergent at Shopper's Drug Mart on the Purex which is on sale for 2.77 Sunday/Monday in Nova Scotia?
I was told it HAD to be Tide (because of the picture) even though it says ANY. I was trying to buy 1.
I would love to know if anyone was able to use it....thanks
I got the Purex for $0.77 using the $2 personalized any laundry detergent coupon this morning no problem.
Try to use at some other SDM. Hope it will work.
Hi I just came for shoppers, bought 4 jugs of Purex and it took $2 off of one jug.
You guys are so lucky, I had that coupon last week. >.< I never have my personalized coupons match up with amazing sales like this.
Cashiers will often try to tell you this with the personalized coupons. I will sometimes ask them if they could just try it, because the computer knows which items qualify and will reject the coupon if the item doesn't qualify. If they are stingy though, they won't even try it (probably because they don't want to be wrong). I had a cashier today say I couldn't use my $1 off any nuts, seeds or trail mix on the smaller package of trail mix because it was only 99 cents. I asked her to please try it, and that it was okay if it didn't work (obviously I knew it would). When it worked she said "see, it didn't take off the full dollar!" To convince herself that she was still right lol. I didn't expect the computer to change the price to -$0.01. Either go back and try again with a different cashier, or just go to a different SDM because it definitely qualifies.Quote:

As you are all aware; every little rule and policy can be the difference between hours of planning and walking away without the promo or savings you hope for or successful shopping trip......
I would just recommend emailing or calling head office then, if you can't easily get to another store. It's not fair when we work hard to make sure we abide by couponing policies and are still treated like scammers or thieves by cashiers :(
I receiver 2000 BP on any Soft soap hand soap. But this coupons is not working. I went to 3 stores but did not work. Their system is not accepting this coupon.
Or comment on their Facebook page = that tends to get fast recognition.Quote:

Sometimes these things seem picky but I can't tell you how nice it is to be a part (just a little one) of the SC family; with others who understand where you are coming from. I love checking in here at least once a day; seeing the posts and the great support you give each other....and me...:-) Thank you
I was able to use my coupon at 2 different SDM...So i got a total of 8 jugs for .82 a piece. The first store I went to the cashier tried to ring them all in on one transaction but it wouldnt accept. So she had to do them all seperate! But it took it each time ! The next SDM I hit, I told the cashier that she would need to ring them in seperately as I just "had my mother use them at a different SDM" and she said that that was ridiculous...she was able to do them all in one but she didn't use the Promo Code to do it..she just entered them as vendor coupon with code 2001 and then entered in the dollar amount.
I have a friend using them in London at an SDM tonight as well to get me 8 more, and I will be picking up 4 more tomorrow as DH is going to the city :)
yay for cheap detergent !
I missed this deal, :(
The coupon stated 1 coupon per transaction per person.
Can you come and do my laundry for me? LOL :razz:Quote:

Many people have stated that they used their personal coupons more than once but in different transactions through out the week. I have yet to do this but I can't see why it wouldn't work.
There's no printing limit and the wording says one coupon per transaction per person. What's to stop me or someone else from ringing them in one at a time or leaving the store only to walk right back in? It's abiding by the fine print. I used mine 12 times so far (without optimum I might add) at 3 seperate locations with no issues.
Is this not a 1 time use coupon?
My SDM won't let you use the personal coupons without the optimum because the numbers have to match your card. I am thinking about going in and try using my coupon again lol.

Some personalized coupons do state 'one time use only', whereas others have no specifications. So you can legitimately use the latter more than once (laundry detergent coupon, for instance).
Khaight - I am not sure how your cashier managed to scan in the personalized offers without your Optimum. They first need to scan your card and then input the code on the coupon for the adjustment to be made on the register.
I want to run in and grab another tide. Wording on this coupon is - no adjustments on previous purchases allowed, one-time offer only, limit of one coupon per transaction per customer. In which all of my personalized coupons have this on them. So I'm assuming that everyone else's probably state the same ;)

Hey I have a question, If you have a personalized coupon that says for example Pay 4.99 for Any tide. Is that where you can get multiples for that same amount? I got screwed up the other day and thought it was the $2 off coupon that would go in multiple times but then the amount only came off one item. Unless they changed it. ;). I asked this somewhere else too, but no one answered me lol

Oh, that is interesting. I got 2 Purex this weekend. Each purchased at a different store though. I am thinking they mean you cannot buy 2 laundry detergents and give in 1 coupon (hence 'per transaction'). If it really was supposed to be 'one time use', I imagine the system would have a way to recognize that the Optimum card was already used for that specific offer and the register would decline any further coupons with that code.Quote:

I gave 4 to my friend to use to get me more as well and they never asked for an optimum either....
