CVS New Coupon Policy

CVS has a brand new corporate coupon policy so I'd advise everyone to print it off and have it with you.  I know several people have had issues with cashiers at CVS and part of it is because of the new changes and the lack of communication between managers and cashiers.  GO HERE to see and print the new policy.

There are several points that are important to point out:

Competitor coupons are not accepted at CVS/pharmacy.

CVS/pharmacy does not currently accept coupon bar code images displayed on a smartphone, iPhone, Droid etc.

The total value of the coupons may not exceed the value of the transaction.

CVS/pharmacy reserves the right to process coupons in any order (this one kinda bites)

The coupon amount will be reduced if it exceeds the value of the item after other discounts or coupons are applied. (For example, a $5.00 coupon for a $4.99 item will result in a $4.99 coupon value).


CVS/pharmacy accepts valid internet/print at home coupons containing a barcode
 
Now the policy does not cover what the rule is regarding B1G1 FREE sale and using a coupon on each item but I did find on the Q/A section of their wesbite the following:
 
Does CVS/pharmacy allow more than 1 coupon to be used per transaction?
A. Yes. CVS/pharmacy allows ONE CVS/pharmacy and ONE third party manufacturer coupon per item. A transaction is defined as the entirety of purchases on a single receipt. ExtraBucks® Rewards coupons can be applied toward the final cost. Normal exclusions apply. See the bottom of the ExtraBucks® Rewards coupon for details.
Note: Coupons cannot be applied to a "free" item.

So apparently CVS will no longer allow you to use 2 coupons on B1G1 FREE sales as it states that coupons can NOT be applied to the FREE item.  That super sucks.
