I read on another blog that if you use the $5 printable schick coupon, the rr will not print. Is this true?
Hi Pretrice,
I mentioned this as a possibility in my matchups. We don’t know what will happen on this until Sunday when we try it. Since the RR is for the same amount as the Q it’s always a possibility that they will be coded the same way. I plan to use my Qs regardless, because the manager should fix this by refunding the item at full price and using that cash (they usually never take it out of the drawer) to purchase the item again and get the RRs. I’ll be warning my cashier that I’m concerned the Q may confuse the register and not print the RR. You can watch http://www.wildforwags.com or my site on Sunday morning and we will post on what happens with this Q.
