I went shopping on September 25, 2010 at Walgreens in West Jordan, Utah (9000 South) and they were having their Trident gum (singles) at 2/$1.00 after using their in-store coupon. I also had 2 manufacturers coupons for $1.00 off of the purchase of 3 singles. So, I wanted to purchase 6 singles and use my coupons. The store would only let me use 1 manufacturers coupon.
Linda´s last blog post ..PEPSI MAX BOGO
@Linda, Sorry to hear that, Linda. Technically, they should accept both coupons in that situation. 🙁
