I transferred a script last week and got a $25 giftcard, and the pharmacy cut the corner of the gift card, why do they do that?

[wannasavemore]

Weird! I'm going to pick up a prescription today & get my $25 GC. I'll see if they do that to mine.

[momof2sweetkids]

I dunno. They didn't do that to mine when i got it several months ago.

[ambtay79]

hmmm. they never do that to mine

[bellasmama]

No idea, I've never had that happen.

I've gotten 2 gift cards at different times from the same pharmacy. Both times they cut the corner off. Don't know why they did that, but I'm in MI too.

I fill scripts and get the gift card all the time and I've never had them do that --- so weird.

[roadrunner_12348166]

they do that so that you can not buy scripts with it, thats what i was told

[Lisa S]

I got a $25 gift card yesterday and they did not cut the ends...

[newbiehere]

I got one too, no cut corner on mine? HMmm

[stefani1]

I get them all the time and they never cut the corners. As far as them doing that so that you can't use it on another script - that's crap! I've gotten a GC and turned right around and used it on the next script! They can't tell you that you can't use a GC on a prescription unless it's the one your getting right then and there!

where are you getting the coupon for the gift card? I have to pick up a new Rx today.

[jenleb]

Rite Aid website has them.

[mommalee93]

maybe it is just certain states that is is against the law. I know some states have RX restrictions.

[ladyflower]

If it is the case that they cut the corner so you can't use it on prescriptions, it doesn't seem very effective to me. Almost every time I've used my gift card the cashier isn't paying attention anyway. Since you swipe it through the same machine as a debit card they have no idea what you're using until your transaction is complete. I really can't remember if I even used my gift card last time I picked up a scrip.

[couponaddicted]

that has never happened to me either

[couponaddicted]

If anyone is looking for $25 RX gc coupons. I have a couple that I picked up at Kmart. These are for transfer prescription. Expiration date 12/31/09. If interested PM me.

[HBrowbn]

Never has happened to me either.

[momof2kids]

Yep true what others had said. Did another this week and asked, and was told so you can't use it to pay for any future RXs, as it is against the law.
