    I have a email personalized SDM coupon
    20x points for over the counter medicine.

    Do vitamins count? Thanks.

    Does the coupon specify what they mean by OTC medicines?
    Is there any restrictions printed on your coupon?

    Tylenol, motrin, advil, anything that a you can buy without a prescription. I'm sure stomach meds, cold meds, pain meds etc are included not sure about vitamins.

    Anyone try buying vitamins with the OTC coupon? I was sent this coupon this week but won't hit $30 without vitamins.
    Just joined Kiva.org, an organization that funds micro-loans to people in developing countries. I love the idea that the $25 I saved in groceries can be given to a fish woman with 5 children in the Philippines to help grow her business.

    Hmm maybe it changed.

    I once tried to buy something in the vitamin section that was a good chunk of the $30 I needed to get 20X and the coupon would not work. Cashier told me it's because the product was not considered OTC.

    This week my hubby got the offer "8000 pts wus $30.00+ on OTC" and since i was going to my good sdm at the last 15 min of their closing time (it closes at 10 pm) i decided to try this coupon for vitamins. I told my cashier that i just want to see if this coupon works for these products or not. Then i am going to return these items right away because i dont really need/want them right now. I bought 2 emerge-C boxxes $16.49 each, making a total of $30+, tried this coupon and It WORKED! YES IT WORKS FOR THE VITAMINS. YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
    i returned both boxes right away, another (senior) cashier came in to ask what was going on, my cashier told her the story, the senior cashier said that this OTC coupon will not work for vitamins. We (me and my cashier) showed her the receipt showing the 8000 pts awarded and senior cashier was just....like....
    Lol.

    Interesting, asked yesterday and was told vitamins are not included, GLAD YOU PROVED THEM WRONG. I used my coupon on eye products with lutein and they worked.
