Yes, as long as their is a price listed they will do bogo pm.

I've been couponing for 30+ years. I can't imagine ever shopping without them

Reading through these posts reminds me of the last shopping trip I did last week.

The first thing the cashier did was ask to see my weekly ads...

:]

The transaction took a total of about 40 minutes, it involved two cashiers and a csm...

They ended up getting the weekly ads from the CS center and looked started to find the deals. I happen to exactly where all the deals were - and quickly went to the page to help speed up the process...what slowed it down was the two cashier reading the ads together...and then the CSM reading it after...

3 people to read everyone of my deals...

I didn't complain - I looked at this as a learning situation for everyone. [Though, I can't speak for the people behind me waiting in line], but in the end, all my matchups were correct and so were my corresponding coupons, and I got my savings.


:]

I have a question, I was wondering if I could price match an advertised price that was sent to me by email for Zu Zu Pets at CVS. They have Zu Zu Pets for a $1 in their stores right now and they sent an email advertising this (though in the weekly ads it says they're on BOGO though they're not anymore). If I printed out the email with the new advertisement do you think they'd price match it?

Doubtful. They have become very anal with Q's and pm's. I was trying to pm chapstick from hyvee and didn't have my add with me (not required). They did not have any hyvee ads so they denied me. I even showed them the add online through my phone. Still denied me. And let me add the cashier was a friend of mine but they all fear to lose their jobs because so many have been getting fired within many walmart stores.

Meijer has a Wii for 149.99 and get a free fitness board for free. Will Walmart honor that? Wondering since there is no price for the board, which shouldn't make a difference since it would be free.

Help Sign distance to price matching store?

How close does the store have to be for Walmart to price match? I live in a rural area with a Walmart where all the other stores are 45 mins away. They aren't refusing to price match, but they are being very grumpy about it to where I am not price matching there anymore. But if I go to another Walmart 45 mins away then the other stores are 30 min away...

I believe that each store manager is allowed to decide on what they consider to be their competition for their own store. So it is going to be a YMMV.

Hey I rarely come in here or Wally World, this week however I have a Quesion. I know I can price match a BOGO with a price and in Winn Dixie's ad they have MILKBITES BOGO save up to .99. I SHOULD be able to price match to that (it is a printing error though) Not sure if they will match it. ALSO IF they do will they still let you use (2) $/1 Qs? I'd be fine with them just being free but I don't need 30 something boxes of them

You shouldnt have any problem price matching that. You should be able to use your coupons too.

Here is the portion of Walmart's Price Match Policy that pertains to your question.

We do not honor:

Ads when the actual price for items cannot be determined.
Internet pricing
Misprinted ad prices of other retailers
"Going out of business" sales or "close out" prices

For the first time yesterday I was refused when pming and using a coupon. Has anyone ever had that problem? If so how did you resolve it? I called corporate who just contacted my local store and had them call me back. Of course they were mad that I called corporate and suggested I resolve the issue with them. Even though I tried. TIA

I have pm at walmart for years. Recently I found out that they would pm buy one get one free when price was mentioned. I have not had any problems until today. I showed the ad that I wanted to pm and was told that the policy was to charge walmart price for the first item and the difference between walmart price and ad price for the second item. I do not understand this, I have done this before and each item was half off. Why the sudden change??? Or was the csm wrong???

The way it should work is this...
If Walmart's price for the item is lower than the BOGO price, then they charge their price for the 1st item and pm the 2nd item to the difference. Just like you had happen today.
However, if Walmart's price is higher, then they pm both items to half the ad price.

I'm going to try to price match this weekend with a ShopRite Ad. ShopRite is just too far from me. Wish me luck. I really hate upsetting cashiers and other customers. Most are super great though.

I tried to price match the ivory soap at Walmart today and it was a no-go. They said that effective today they will no longer take any coupons on a PM item. They said the reason for it is because they don't want to give cash back on coupons. I told them I wasn't getting any cash back, she said well you get it off your order?!?! I was trying to use a $1 Q on a $1 item. Oh well, just one more reason of many for me to stay away from Walmart. So I let them keep their $1.27 packages of ivory soap and went to Kroger.

That's weird, I used coupons on PMs just this past Saturday (7/28) with no issues whatsoever.
