COUPONERS UNITE!!!!! - RANT, RANT, RANT!

[sophisticatcovergirl]

I even subbed you on this channel lol!

[tooswt4bs]

the dollar store gets that toothpaste for about 25 cents each....so they have one heck of a mark up

[tooswt4bs]

Amen sister.......You are absolutely awesome and I certainly appreciate all you do. I am 100 percent behind you. You are very well spoken and I appreciate that.

[jarell026]

i know...i feel like i am doing something wrong when i am just trying to save money...

[TheCouponingGeek]

post this video on their facebook pages!!! cvs rite aid walgreens target walmart especially walmart!

[nony0587]

I so agree with you because I am not a coupon trainer, I am a consumer.

[sassie37]

I agree but I must say that a our local Walgreen's and CVS are on point. I think it's the store managers fault.

I checked out at CVS today the guy was do scared that he was giving me something because he miss read the coupon but I quickly told him what the coupon said he apologized.

Walmart it depend on cashier I don't like the older cashiers they act like I'm stealing and if the coupon does not match the item I'm know to make an occasionally mistake just bring it to my attention and I'll corre

[isavannahhicks]

can you also do a video on how rude these people are to customers because we use coupons? I also get so mad at that.

[AblessedQueen]

AMEN....AMEN.....

[malabooluvu]

Well said ! I agree ! Love you girl !

[billyederek]

Yes indeed it makes no sense to go through crap every time you go into a store to use a coupon. I live in Newton, MS and every time I go into my Walmart here there is a new rule. I have just given up on using coupons in Dollar General they just will not except my coupons there is always an excuse.

[RecessionistasRule]

Excellent video.. the natives are restless.. lol..its time to strike, be heard, respected and appreciated!!! Its up to us to demand what's right and just!!!

[vickyl72273]

Its one thing that the cashier don't know the policies it might be their first day or they haven't been there long but what gets me is when the manager doesn't know it! How did they become a manager and not know the stores policy? It's crazy.

[7841LISA]

You could not of said this any better.....you are awesome and I am so behind you 100 %

[shlinda1]

Preach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ataylorai1]

I totally agree with you.

[Tcluvs2Coupon]

You are so right .... im behind you 1000 %..

[puregroove]

I completely agree! It all boils down to poor training.

[mspeaceandluv777]

I totally agree!! I had the WORST experience at Walmart Tues. evening! Spoke w/ corporate and the the store manager and still left empty handed!! I am not done with this either!! I know I was right and they WILL give me my products!! LOL..sorry for the rant on your page.....

[shari04]

walgreens is the only place that always gives me a hassel when i try and use coupons! them old, rude women act like they are losing money out of their checks or something!

[tanyasbathandbody]

I absolutely agree, I have to do that all the time when I'm shopping. By the way, I love your hair. :o)

[LadyTheFae]

agree with you...you should set up a 'Couponers Unite - Day of Accountability'...pick a day and have us all hit their facebook pages on the same day....that way they could see our opinions one after the other after the other....keep us updated!

[ralicia921]

So you see all your viewers are in .... Let us know a start date post a link to whose page you want to hit first and let's show these companies the power of couponers. It only takes one voice and from this video alone you already have more than 500.

[boringbee86]

I hear what your saying. Although I have talked to walgreens and walmarts support line and they said what the manager said goes.

[bzbrown71]

Make a list of FB pages and you know I'm on board! BTW...did I get it right with the trademark thing? I have NO legal background and since I made a video about my thoughts on the Finish coupon TR's, I want to make sure I'm putting out right info...LOL! Thanks P!

[pdxbeautiful]

Amen!! BTW...you are so pretty :)

[mamilolfull]

I hate target, they treat us very bad, I agree.

[AnomalyHaute]

Great vid! Just posted my 2 cents on the target FB page :)

[bananashaveice]

I agree. Posting bad experiences on their Facebook & Twitter pages will get their attention. I'm sure they wouldn't want a ton of negative experiences influencing their other customers/followers.

[civilwarcat]

Amen! Every time someone has a problem with a store they should go to that stores facebook page & explain what happened! I believe more of the stores upper managements take a look at the facebook pages & possibly emails as opposed to hearing what happens when corporate is called bc it's only reps taking calls! That's definitely what I'm going to start doing & I got a feeling Walmart ends up being my 1st FB rant. I always have probs. with them. Thanks for the motivation!

[RecessionistasRule]

Excellent idea, I agree with you, and to let our dollars speak for us as well!!

[Patricep1023]

I'm with you'

[MyCrownstar]

forgot to mention...you are absolutely awesome..you and Greg that dude are my absolute favorita...couponlikeaman is holding his own too...go flacraters, 29lawana, hip to save, southern savers, vetta, you guys ROCK..

[tailynn82]

Yep! I went to CVS last week for the glade deal....And there were two cashiers watching me because I had a my coupons out. Then when I got to the register they were so fuck*** rude and dumb! Basically b4 the cashier saw my coupons she started to look mad! Now I have certain store I go to....I cannot deal with no stress and drama! I just refuse to stress about a coupon.

[MyCrownstar]

agree...that simple...hit facebook epecially target and walgreens...target need to get out of the coupon business...if they don't want to abide by coupons actual facie value. I totally have given up on walgreens..sick of their filler crab. so CVS and Walmart is is for me, the only 2 stores worth shopping and now even CVS trying to get into no overage nonsense. CVS comeon, you know better, you dont' want to lose customers over this bs...thanks for posting this is crazy.

[tameikarose]

Well said

[StampinRN]

Ridiculous!! ..I am so tired of it all!  To me, it's nothing short of discrimination.

[modelchickny]

Extremely well said!  I am with you on this!

[AprilWellsGoOLEMISS]

Have you been having with the new coupon barcodes to?

[21kayde]

Amen! Amen! Amen!

[solashy111]

And before this Target I went to another one who called my Kreo-Transformer coupons bogus I was pissed because I had 4 coupons and I had grabbed the last 4 that I found in the store. The person said I put this coupons thru the machine and there no good we cant take them but it worked find on the 2nd Target I went thru. I am honestly getting tired of Target and calling corporate is just a waste of time in my case.

[solashy111]

Then when I gave her the $4 off coupons she said I can't use it because she cannot allow me to walk out the store paying nothing for the bubbs. when she just finished ringing the kreo-Transformers. Did she not notice those where free also.She didnt seem like she wanted to wait for the manager so she let me use 1 $4 off coupon and I paid $4 for the other Bubbs that I am gonna take back.

[solashy111]

told her that doesnt make sense (what if I wanted to price match bread, juice I can only take one) So she then called the manager and 2 min. later called back and said she didnt want the manager anymore and priced matched the 2 bubbs to $4.

[solashy111]

Bubbles to see what was going to happen because I never priced matched before at Target and it was a terrible experience my first time price matching at Walmart. First the cashier told me I could only price match for 1 of the Scrubbing Bubbles I nicely told her

[solashy111]

I agree with you yesterday I went Family Dollar to look for the Scrubbing bubbles and did not see any so I grabbed the ad and took it to Target. I have had about 50 of these coupons and never see them in the stores so I was going to price match at Target. I had 15 coupons but I only took 2 Scrub.

[angela83211]

u r right this is wht the company want us to do fight each other it takes the heat off them. we can,t huddle in a corner talk only to each other and expect to get something done .we must use youtube like the media use tv for their platform and put them on blast. most of the tiime the prices are to high anyway. when we r n line and the cashier do not no the policy it make us look like we r causing problems to the people around us like we want something for nothing .coupons r for us to use .

[yubadealsavingmom]

I have stood in line waiting on a manager to get a clue some times good and most not good as I stand there I say I don't get paid like they do and it makes me mad when a trans that should have been no more the say like 6-7 mins turns in to 45 mins this is so bs and the wy Walmart talks down & has discrimination towards us couponers the wy were r treated is not like the person who is not using qpons it needs to stop we should ALL post the same day like when ppl stp getting gas do 2prices we nee

[StampinRN]

Fizxgirl314....I have wondered why no one has filed a class action suit.....is it really legal for stores to adjust coupons down when they are receiving the full amount from the manufacturer? What contract are the stores held to when they accept coupons?

[oli4oli]

I haven't been able to get things lately specially at Rite Aid and Target =(.....You are so pretty Priscilla!

[extremecouponexposed]

Well said; preach!

[CentSnatcher]

LOVE

[desirim]

They already know. The less the consumer buy, the more they have to take advantage of later.

[sherley70]

You are right.

[GlitzyGlam34]

Oh ! and Favorited this video to my channel ! Also send it to me as a vid response to my last video if you would like to , I will accept it ! xo Jessie

[GlitzyGlam34]

I second everything you said ! I have wanted at times to stop couponing bcuz of the hassle but this community and ppl like you give me encouragement to continue saving money for my family ! Thank you ! xo Jessie

[rosarosa68]

Thank you so much for this video, I totally, totally agree with everything you said, what's the point of store policy if they don't follow what's on it, it's up to the manager or the cashier that's wrong, I'm tired of them telling me to get what ever it's on the picture of the coupon,or one per purchase not a tran.

[MENVUNOT]

Target is the worst by far!......

[hotriceandbeans]

So true. A cashier at Target recently insisted that what was written on the coupon didn't matter; she said the picture was what was important.

[louisianamrs]

you surely right...I just posted a video about Walmart's raggedy ass

[srramsey51]

Preach girl!! I agree with everything you said!!

[rosadavismusic]

right on!

[pattyshere3yahoo]

yes we need to do that

[badbee00]

I totally agree next we should boycott CBS for rolling coupons back BUT getting full value from the manufacturers

[puddinnc]

Well said! You are beautiful, BTW! What make me mad is when the coupon makes the product FREE, the cashier will say, this is not right. Exp: The Nabiscoe Coupon $3/3. The Go packs are a $1 each making them free. I shopped 5 stores so I would not clear the shelves. But 3 out of the 5 stores did not want to take the coupon because it made the product free. I still walked out with my free Go Packs.

[otway77]

You are right on Priscilla!I couldn't of said it better myself!Its pretty bad when us consumers know more about the coupon policy and the stores rules then their OWN employees!!!I always say that!Every CVS in this world needs to be consistent,or why else even have a policy in the first place!All of these stores are allll over the place with their rules trying to tell us what to do when we know whats right and what the stores policy is!Its not fair to us and it is frusterating!Right on girl!

[Ladysmash711]

I and the church says.... Amen!!!!

[monyvalesti]

i live on the border with mexico, and before starting this couponing (or trying to). i use to go to mexico to do my basic necessity shopping there. the same colgate toothpaste that we see here for $4.00, is only $1.25 at the most. there is no Q's in mex.

and so i dont think there is anything wrong with wanting to use a coupon to make this, or any, product lower their price. they jack their prices way too much hers in the U.S. i think we r being robbed. we shouldnt have to pay so much 4 basics

[petz1235]

Preaching to the chior, sister :-)!!

[Fibroherbs]

well spoken- personal feelings should not override respect and leaving people with their dignity.

[99SweetCheecks]

Abosulutely. Thank you for standing up to this issue. 

[fizXgirl314]

also, someone needs to file a class action suit... although they may cause them to not accept coupons at all... but we should look into it. A lot of these stores would have major major setbacks in profits if they stop accepting coupons. when an item isn't on sale or has no coupon, it'll sit there forever. As soon as there is a sale + coupon, shit is FLYING off the shelves. So I don't know why they don't appreciate our patronage.

[fizXgirl314]

Alright, i say every time we have a problem with another couponer, we organize and hit the facebook page...

[MRSSAXTON1968]

well said and thank you.

[beajae4859]

Thank you so much for this video! I would love to be able to shop with coupons without expecting stressful situations every time! So on point!

[fizXgirl314]

I am getting so fed up with the coupon drama... I feel like I'm going into a war zone every time I coupon.... 

[fgtortiz1]

AMEN!!!!!

[miss2umister]

Now you are talking because I asked a manager did Target make money by any other means than providing goods to the consumer? She looked at me like I was crazy but guess what I told her the reason she is employed there is because I shop there. Every consumer that shops there is the boss because we pay the bills, try making it without us. So upsetting me is not good business because I pay the bills and I don't have to shop here.

[Truss843]

I completely agree with you! I just had to educate Target a few days ago! Makes no sense at all.

[GregThatDudeTv]

I totally agree, Im post your video on my blog. I hope you dont mind.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@GregThatDudeTv I don't mind at all. Stay tuned for a personal message from me on a coordinated effort with other youtubers to hit them on Facebook all at one time.

[brandonweaver2010]

Retail stores have such a high turnover rate and SEVERE lack of training. At every retail job I have held, I had to take it upon myself and learn the job.

I HATE working retail because of the constant changes of management, lack of training and lack of overall employees who don't care.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@brandonweaver2010 Believe me, I've done retail work many many years when I was younger. I know exactly how you feel.

[blaackstarr]

I love it! Girl....let me know whatever you wanna do to hit these companies and Im on it. I will jump on facebook and get it in.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@blaackstarr Great! Stay tuned for a message from me on coordinating this effort with fellow youtubers so we can hit them all at one time on Facebook. Thanks.

[parmk2]

So pissed at Walgreens (Cortaid)

[pinchingpennies2011]

@parmk2 I know how you feel.  I didn't get the overage on the Cortaid either.

[CouponJunkie66]

@pinchingpennies2011 I couldn't even get the Cortaid...LOL!

[letsgocoupun]

I am with you 100% ... I am tired of being an instructor to all these companies ... also being told even I will go to jail for using certain coups that are exactly for the item I am buying .... I will watch for later vids on what step we take next as a group.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@letsgocoupun Thanks.

[OFFICIAL1STLADY]

Walmart - around thankgiving I priced matched 16 Neutragena shampoo/cond from K-mart ad for $1-the manager was called because of the number of items I priced matched. He saw the original price and told me "I" can't let you get an item that's almost $5 for a $1. I said -"you" are not giving me anything, This is 'Walmart' policy and I still have to pay a $1 for each so no one is "giving'" me anything. He asked if I had the aid so I showed him (although the aid wasn't required per the policy).

[pinchingpennies2011]

@OFFICIAL1STLADY I remember that $1 deal from K-mart. That's why we need to make these companies educate their staff on THEIR coupon policy.

[ShaunieceCooks]

This is so FUNNY I have been say this for months, MONTHS... People we can BOYCOTT just like they did in the 1960's and i bet you thing will change JUST STOP SHOPPING IN THERE DAMM STORES. MRS ROSA PARKS SHUT DOWN THE BUS COMPANY. ONE WOMAN. Now we just take this S....T like it is a HAND OUT. JUST STOP SHOPPING. DONT SPEND YOUR MONEY. STOP TALKING ABOUT IT. JUST DO IT.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@ShaunieceCooks I agree about how they did it in the 60's, but these days, it faster and more effective for us to use the social media to voice our concerns.  Corporations don't want to see negative comments all over their Facebook page.

[HqHoney]

Happened to me today at Walmart. The clerk said I couldn't use more than one of the coupon I had saying I was doubling coupons. Really i am doubling for real. Moron...I am like no the coupons aren't doubling I am using 1 coupon per item which is allowed....He went to get them manager to make sure because he wasn't sure. I hate Walmart as it is because the one closest to me is OVERPRICED. I never can find the deals like everyone else, if a youtubers says its .99cents at Walmart its usually 2.99.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@HqHoney I agree with you on the pricing too! All they have to do is "read" the coupon just like we are required to do.

[EmilyG60]

Amen! I am tired of the constant humiliation because a cashier feels all high and mighty.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@EmilyG60 Those cashiers and managers know they have the power to reject our purchase, so they do feel all high and mighty at times.

[nhopeb]

I love your rants! You always articulate your points well. I'm on board!

[pinchingpennies2011]

@nhopeb Well, thank you very much! I try. LOL

[OFFICIAL1STLADY]

Yes, yes, yes! been couponing since 10/18/11 and have had a few 'wtfmoments' as I like to call them. Walgreens- Monday I did the Triaminc deal use 2/$2 off Q's along with the flurry bar and 10 Tuf. I used a $10 RR to help pay but the $5 RR for the Tri did not print. I told the cashier and she calls the manager. He proceeded to TRY to convince me that the RR did not print because I used the $2 Q's.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@OFFICIAL1STLADY I've heard people have gotten that response in Walgreens before. That's the most ridiculous thing for them to say!

[magicofcoupons]

I agree with you. I think if a store gives one couponer a problem other couponers should come to their defense. Something like - maybe - dropping off a expired coupon on the counter of customer service counter letting them know we know what you did to a fellow couponer.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@magicofcoupons Thanks. I'm really interested in a coordinated effort to hit them on Facebook. So stay tuned for additional videos on this matter.

[Riaa24]

You are so right!! I'm so sick of being treated like a moron, meanwhile they are the ones that know nothing!!! Every single time I go to target and cvs I have a problem!!! I love my walmart now but initially I had to show the manager the coupon policy and she thanked me, after she was so nasty to me!!!

[pinchingpennies2011]

@Riaa24 See, all it takes is for these companies to educate their staff! Thanks for your support.

[MaryHiggs9618]

Agreed! I hate using coupons at Walmart, Target and Safeway. They always give me a hard time even if I have their coupon policy in hand. BTW, I'm also in the DC area.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@MaryHiggs9618 Hey DC native! Yes, its so frustating to shop these days!

[ansbach74]

You couldn't of have said it better. Can you post this video on the stores Face book page you mention in this video (providing they have page)?

[pinchingpennies2011]

@ansbach74 I am going to coordinate this Facebook effort with a few other youtubers, and I will post the video on their page at that time. Thanks.

[mustangsuzie7]

Very well said!!

[pinchingpennies2011]

@mustangsuzie7 Thanks.

[riotgrrrrl1288]

Your very right, well said.

However, as a Walmart employee, not all of the people at the checkouts are actual cashiers bc they save labor money by using people to cashier outside of their usual job duties. Due to this, sometimes the employee will mess up because their not trained to know these things, and quite frankly, Walmart doesn't care because all they want to do is save money. This has never happened to me, but if it happens at Walmart specifically, now you know.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@riotgrrrrl1288 Oh, I'm pretty sure that NOT everyone at Walmart or any other store is guilty of not knowing the policy, and I'm sure its not most of their faults. I'm making this a general statement because I can't single out every single person at each store. I think the stores have a responsibility to train EVERYONE on their store policy, no what position they hold.

[Couponlikeaman]

Testify!

[29lawanna]

Saayyy it!!!! I'm hitting up Walmart and target Facebook page today! And if I decide to no longer shop there I am canceling my credits cards as well and they won't have any of my business point blank period dot com.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@29lawanna Hold off for a minute. I would like to coordinate this with you and a few other youtubers.

[29lawanna]

@pinchingpennies2011 ok just let me know when! "IM READY" lol look i was headed to facebook!

[kickhaters]

Even though I'm very new to couponing I couldn't help but point out that you make very valid points. Even at my place of employment we have training & I work with kids. Same rules for the entire company worldwide!

[porlares84]

Woo hoo!! Girl, you just lit a fire up with me to stand even stronger by my fellow couponers. And what's worse is that the people behind us probably look at us like we're dumb because the clerks our sitting up there questioning our integrity and knowledge of these coupons,

[Nee717]

this is sooo true

[pinchingpennies2011]

@Nee717 Thanks.

[towannalynn]

Great job !! Thumbs Up for me

[pinchingpennies2011]

@towannalynn Thanks.

[CocoWonderWoman]

You betta say that sh**...

[pinchingpennies2011]

@CocoWonderWoman LOL, thanks.

[medasst100]

We should all share this video to our fb pages..lol

[pinchingpennies2011]

@medasst100 Yes, thanks.

[fashiondollie2]

exactly u r so right Priscilla we need to write a letter and have it signed and sent to these big corporations

[pinchingpennies2011]

@fashiondollie2 No letters necessary, we will hit them on the social networks, especially Facebook! Stay tuned.

[MysticMoonJewelz]

Well said! I'm all for what you are saying and it is so true! BTW, your make-up looks beautiful today

[pinchingpennies2011]

@MysticMoonJewelz Thank you so much!

[sarandipity79]

Woooohooooo!! Sing it, my savings sister!! Loved every syllable! Like I said on my video last night about my Scary Walmart trip...now I basically give up...wave the white flag. Give me my damn coupons back and stop wasting my damn time you uneducated squirrel tail lashed beast...or errr...manager. I've always thought about sending all these stores a letter advertising my services to come in & educate their staffs...give me 30 minutes & everyone in that friggin store will be experts on that coup

[pinchingpennies2011]

@sarandipity79 Oh damn! I just did a shoutout video and forgot to mention your channel. No worries, I will add an annotation because I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL AND YOUR PERSONALITY! I would really like to coordinate a FB campaign with you and a few others. Are you on Facebook?

[LUCANDIS]

all u said was the truth..... every store saying something different......

[pinchingpennies2011]

@LUCANDIS Thanks.

[Topaz5866]

Priscilla, I couldn't agree with you more! WalMart is the absolute WORST!!!!

[pinchingpennies2011]

@Topaz5866 Yes, Walmart is suppose to have the best couponing policy, yet its almost impossible to shop there.

[superdiscounters]

Lets do it! a different company a day im all for it

[pinchingpennies2011]

@superdiscounters This is a great idea! Definitely stayed tuned for more videos on this.

[lovemylightning]

Very well said. The stores and their lack of properly training the employees is the real problem. The coupon policies should absolutely be adhered to company-wide, and not be allowed to be interpreted any way a specific manager at a certain store sees fit. That is asinine. And yes, we should never be attacking each other. We should be standing up for our rights as couponers.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@lovemylightning Exactly! Thanks for your support.

[MsRolley]

I AGREE they put these out here for us to try and also cause ppl arent shopping like they used to do to the ecomony, these managers/employees dont care cause there getting that paper they could care less and thats sad they dont wanna educate themselves at all they rather say no to keep from doing there job. hotmess

[pinchingpennies2011]

@MsRolley Yes, a hot mess indeed! Thanks.

[dlw5k]

Well said. I'm not interested in seeing anymore couponers criticizing other couponers, rather, I'd like to see some corporations put on full blast on Facebook.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@dlw5k Exactly! Stay tuned for future videos on this matter. I'm seeing a coordinated effort with other YT couponers to get this done. Thanks.

[prhaywood]

You should organize something where we choose a company a day or a week and we all hit up their facebook sites and complain. Your voice has power here on youtube and i will will surely follow you. Thanks you cause I totally agree strength is in numbers!!!!

[pinchingpennies2011]

@prhaywood That is a great idea! I'll take it under consideration. Maybe coordinate this with other couponers here on YT. Stay tuned. Thanks.

[2010tsmall]

Love this video I agree with you 100%

[pinchingpennies2011]

@2010tsmall Thanks.

[sondragina]

Im sorry but we can use the qpon at Krogers they have it on sale for 4.99 making it FREE.

[sondragina]

Hey PP2011 love your videos but i agree on what you are sayin but i think the reason y we have to educate the employees and the manager on their own POLICY is because they dont have the knowledge to teach each other,all they no is make up a lie to tell us and think we suppose to say ok "WRONG".But letting you no there is a coupon out there for Kingsford charcoal at Coupons.com using area code 75034.

[pinchingpennies2011]

@sondragina Thanks for your support of my channel. Oh yeah, that's a great coupon to have, especially since Summer grilling is right around the corner. Thanks.

[wahinepaddler4]

The thing that boggles my mind is the lack of training..Im certain they receive a manual or something..craziness!!

Or when stores think their independent of the corporate name..heller?? YOUR Target is indeed the VERY same Target thats down the street..

couponers need a group rep..we can be like 'occupy walgreens' :D

[pinchingpennies2011]

@wahinepaddler4 I am determined to take the blame off our backs and place it on the corporations where it belongs. Thanks.

[ThePinkKiwi]

Even though I'm 14, I've already saved my family over $200 a month on groceries and daily items ! I love couponing and it's the people like you that keep me excited!

[pinchingpennies2011]

@ThePinkKiwi That is awesome! Your family should be very proud of you. Thank you so much for supporting my channel.
