Oh, and on rebate items have them print you out a rebate receipt. Many don’t know how to do this. Have them call over the manager. IF you are lucky, the manager will know how to do it. There is a special button that has to be pushed before the item is rung up and on a lot of registers it is not marked.

Having a rebate receipt will avoid hassles of not being paid the right amount because you used coupons and RRs.

One more thing, watch the wording on the rebate. Likely you can only do one.

Some companies let you do more than one on certain items.

Bayer and Renpure come to mind.

There is also an advil deal for cheap advil (not free) -how many you need for the deal depends on the price at your store and it requires coupons. Search the deals sites if you need advil.

A rebate receipt?

Wow, I'd never heard of that.

Does that mean that I don't need to have the item rung up separately?

That would be great.

Decades ago I did couponing/rebating all the time; what I dislike nowadays is that most coupons expire so very quickly, way back when they typically were always good for at least a minimum of six months -- the modern day branders who simply want me to look at the NAME of their product and know full well that I probably won't redeem it within a month --- those coupon issuers irk me --- long ago, couponing was NOT a never ending search for non-expired coupons.

One other thing I particularly dislike is those multi-billion corporations who have the gall to offer a 10-cent coupon, that isn't worth the time to cut it out, and if you happen to read it, you find out that you must purchase TWO.

rofl!!

I think I might like the RRs, though....
