what does SS 2/10 with an R underneath mean
It is a regional coupon.
I’ve added it to our definitions list. Thanks Min!
I sometimes look through a site called Pantryoverflow.com and i have seen the comments posted by this person on coupon stacking and i know the information is incorrect but i want to make sure because many people log on to follow her findings. She has recently stated that you can most definitely stack a P&G cpn for pantene of $3/2 and a BOGOF if you purchase four items. I have known this to be incorrect usage of the coupons. I may be wrong can you please clarify?
YES, if you have four items, you can use a BOGO and $3/2.
What does ETS mean in the limitation area?..
What do you mean by limitation area? Can you use it in a sentence?

Balance reward points (for Winco). More info here: http://fabulesslyfrugal.com/walgreens-balance-rewards
Balance Reward Points, they are Walgreens version of +Up rewards.
i was wondering if you could print out the same coupon twice and how would i use it? also i have clipped coupons from the paper and don’t know what to do on how to get it for a cheap price. for example: i clip a 40 cents off when you buy five but my store has it on sale for 75 cents so how would that work? i wouldn’t be able to save at least a full dollar i would only be able to save a couple of cents so it makes me feel like i didn’t save much so i don’t bother clipping it.
Hi Fatima… you can print the coupon twice, but NEVER make copies! Like if you go here: http://fabulesslyfrugal.com/print-free-coupons, just select the coupons you want to print and after they print, do it again and you’ve got your two!
Most coupons aren’t $.40 off 5. Just remember that every little bit counts!
