Wink Comp ADs only not Q's

Our Walmart doesn't accept other store Q's only the store ad's..

And the way I do it is I have a blank sheet of paper and a pen with me, and if I see something while I am shopping that is cheaper in one of my ad's I write that item, sale price, and pg # under that store's name... then when I get to the registers, I try to keep all the items from each (other) store that I want to comp together... this way I can pull out 1 ad, show it to them if they need to see it (and sometimes they want to see the date of the ad) say this is on sale at *** for ??? they change the price, after all the items for 'say' target ... have been price matched, I move to 'say' walgreens, and have them price match them and so on...

It is easier for me this way than to have everything on the belt and be trying to remember ... ok that needs to be price matched with ??? and have to start looking threw all the ads I have with me to find the item,,, and then the next item being rung up you go threw the same thing... way to much work that way... if I have the page # listed and the price sometimes they don't even ask to see the ad... making it even easier...
