I'm sooo annoyed, more than annoyed at this one particular CVS cashier today. I visited a CVS 20 minutes from home because it was on my way to run errands. I am NEVER going back to that store.

Anyhow, there was an older lady who worked behind the counter. I came to the counter with:

3 Palmolive
1 $15 gc for Starbucks
1 Pasta Cooker (as seen on t.v)
1 pack of CVS tissues
1 bag of Huggies
1 Head/Shoulder shampoo
2 Christmas gift items for $25.
1 bottle of baby lotion

I gave her:
1 - $5/25
1 - $3/15
1 - $2/10
3 Palmolive qs (.40 each)
and $13 worth of ECBs

She gave me the "look". She scrutinized every ECB and coupon. She then said I'm only allowed 2 coupons per visit! AND she couldn't take more than $5 of my ECBs! The she yelled out to another cashier in front of everyone..."Hey, here's a funny coupon for $3/15, but the register accepted it, is it a good coupon?"!

I'm soooo annoyed with her that I almost wanted to just walk out. First of all, I've never had a single problem with using my coupons. I've never use more coupons than products (since I always forget them anyway) and I've never had problems using my ECBs. If that was the case...why even join ECBs if I can't use them like cash?!

I just wanted to smack her or something.
UGH. Thanks for reading.

I would have just walked out~~there is no reason for her to treat you like that. How rude. I would have also gotten her name and called corporate. That is ridiculous.

And I've had single ecb receipts for over $5...what does she expect to do in that case...throw them out?

I would have made her take a couple of things that added up to that coupon off and done a whole new order.

I would have gotten a manager. It really isn't too much to ask for people to do their job correctly!

Sorry for the bad trip!

After I had a problem with using more than one manufacturer coupon I wrote an email to corporate and this was their reply:

Dear ExtraCare Card Member:

All earned ExtraBucks coupons associated with an ExtraCare card may now
be redeemed in a single transaction. The retail price must be greater
than the combined total of all coupons. Please keep in mind there is no
cash value back for any unused portion of the coupon.

NOTE: Use of Manufacturer coupons remains limited to one per item in
any transaction.

If you have any other questions please do not hesitate to contact us
either by e-mail or by calling (800) 746-7287. Thank you for taking the
time to contact us. I hope you have a nice day.
Sincerely,
Joseph Battey

I have attached in word pad this statement so you can print it off.

I would have demanded a manager. I would have gotten that woman's name and called corporate... heck, still call them and tell them what store you had your issue with... corporate can still call the store and read tehm the riot act.
