Price Matching AND Using Coupons

Price matching and using coupons is such an important way to save at Walmart. I know that many of you are having problems and I posted about this last week. I call weekly and talk to corporate about this, and I get the same answer each time that you can do it. I know that some of you are still having trouble and I hate to hear that. Try calling corporate and ask them to work with your store manager to help them understand what is in their policy and make shopping a better experience for you! Always be nice and never get ugly, it really won’t help, but be firm and just try to remember that you are helping all the couponers in your community.

This is a comment left by Deborah this morning:

Hi Paul,
I have called and spoke with Walmart Customer Service regarding price matching and using coupons. What I was told is that it is NOT up to the individual store managers. The Store’s ARE SUPPOSSED TO ACCEPT MANUFACTUR’S COUPON’S AFTER THE PRICE MATCH, per Corporate policy. I mentioned that this part of the policy is not addressed in either the coupon nor the price matching policy. The Customer Service Rep, stated that it is available to all the store manager’s and the cashiers should be trained accordingly- as it is available in their internal training resources. So if anyone has a problem with price matching AND using MQ’s with a price match, customer service should be contacted. I hope this helps anyone experiencing these training issues.

Can You Price Match & Use Coupons @ Walmart?

May 12 by Paul Ivanovsky 42 Comments

This is a really hot topic right now and many of you are really confused. I have been reading all the comments and I feel your frustration. I decided to call corporate again today after reading where a few of you had called and got a very disconcerting answer. I was told today that NOWHERE in the policy nor have there been any revisions that state you cannot price match and then use a MFG coupon.

The only confusion I can possibly see is if they thought you were trying to use a Competitor coupon and price match. If you continue to run into this issue try and have this conversation. Ask why that wold be when the coupons don’t cost the company anything, in fact the company comes out better with the .08 for S&H. Logically they should be encouraging a coupon after a price match to recoup a little of the cost of the PM. I hope this helps and keep working, we are leading the revolution!

Walgreens Has Clean and Clear B1G1, Can I Price Match?

May 8 by Paul Ivanovsky 39 Comments

I have had a bunch of emails on this one last night and today so I figured I would just post it. Walgreens has the Clean and Clear Morning Burst Body Wash for $5.99 B1G1. YES Walmart will match this ad offer because it lists a specific price for the B1G1. Cool.

Now, the next question is, “can I use the BOGO free coupon” to make them both free??

This is from the Corporate policy:

Manufacturers’ coupons

Buy one, get one free (BOGO) coupons

O.K. there is nothing in their policy that says you can’t use a coupon on a free item, and that is usually what you look for when you want to know if a store accepts Bogo coupons on bogo items. I know that previously before this new coupon policy, Walmarts stance was NO they don’t take them. I think this is going to depend on the cashier and manager at your store. BTW I called Walmart but they are not answering the phones yet!

These are some more coupons for clean and clear:

B1G1 Clean & Clear Body Wash, exp. 5-15-11 (SS 03/27/11)
$2/1 Clean & Clear Product printable
$1/1 Clean & Clear Product, exp. 5-15-11 (SS 03/27/11)
$2/1 Clean & Clear Product printable

** For those of you who are going to ask, you would want to price match this at Walmart because they are going to have stock where Walgreens will be sold out.
