Default Was this wrong?

Got 4 Birdseye Steamfresh for Two meals
Had 2, $1.50/1 Q's
Had 2 BOGO Q's

I've read how other people were able to use both, but the WM cashier said she could only take one or the other. I used the 2 BOGO's. Was she wrong, or was it wrong to use both? I know WM is horrible with coupons, so I wanted other opinions.

I don't think you are in the wrong...I tried the same thing earlier this week at our WM. The cashier was just mean and nasty about it so I had no problem saying take them off of my order then. I just never shop at WM anymore because all I get is flack from the cashiers about my coupons. Other places will take them so I will just use them there!
Sorry you had problems too!

I think you should have been able to use all 4 coupons because you had 4 items. I do it all the time at Publix but I never shop at Walmart, so I'm not sure of their policy.

You should be able to use both from what I am told and my own experience which is limited.

you had 4 items and 4 coupons one Q for each item.

A cashier at super 1 told me that the money off Q counts toward the first item and the BOGO counts toward the second item...so technically it is okay... although the register did beep and she punched it through.

Neither of you was wrong. These kind of BOGO deals are always YMMV, and Walmart does not have a clear policy of acceptance regarding them.

General rule is, yes you can combine the two, & you would be doing nothing wrong in that.

P.S.

You want my coupon? I only have one but don't think I'm gonna use it. I just don't dig these meals.

Thanks, everyone. I should have just gone to Food Lion: they're the same price there this week and I might have been able to use all four. Oh, well. Live and learn.

I appreciate it Lucy, but I'm out of freezer space for now. Gotta eat down some of my stock. I don't even know if I like them: I've never tried them. But 4 meals for $10.00 I figured I'd give them a go.

Has anyone tried to do this at an SCO at Walmart or any other store? Just curious if I would get beeps and need someone to override???

No, you weren't wrong, sometimes it just depends on the store policy. IMHO you should've been able to use them because the money off would be for the ones you paid for while the "BOGO" free would still apply to the others. However, some stores have a policy of one coupon per item, which if you are using a BOGO, they consider that use of a coupon for BOTH items. Go figure I guess I can understand it, but in this economy you'd think they'd be grateful you're in there spending your $$$$, and not be so nitpicky.

no, Nerdy, I don't think you are wrong. Your thinking is correct, just try again elsewhere.
