More Walmart Thoughts - A Word of Caution

More thoughts on the new Walmart coupon policy:  It’s very important that we play nice and don’t abuse this rare opportunity. According to this policy, you could buy a .65 candy bar, present a $10 Walgreens RR, and get $9.35 in change. If people do that, the rules will quickly change for the worse. Since Walmart has plenty of milk, meat, fresh fruit, vegetables, eggs, bread, etc., that extra $9.35 should be spent on things in the store that people buy all the time anyway. I hope RC readers will not insist on change, but will spend their overage in the store. It’s fine to work your deals so you only owe pennies or a few dollars, but please don’t flaunt the Walgreens RR and make cashiers pay you cash back. That will kill the golden goose. It's in everyone's best interests to fly under the radar and be good coupon citizens.
