Here is where "register logic" comes in handy. The register refused your 4th coupon because the sale price had been exceeded. 4 at $1.89 = $7.56 ~ so 3 at $2 would come off but the 4th would beep (at CVS it would beep and prompt the cashier to enter $1.56 as max value)

You could have:
4 @ $1.89 clearance Sunsilk
1 @ $2.44 or + Sunsilk

Then the register would basically be applying the overage from units 1-4 ($.11 each) towards unit 5.

I did this when the Post-it were clearanced for $1.49 and we had $2 off mfr coupons I used the $.51 overage per unit towards higher priced Post-it items.

NOTE ~ overage at WG is only possible when A) a Walgreens coupon (EasySaver booklet or in-ad coupon) and a mfr are combined or B) the cashier overrides a beeping coupon.
