I'm new to this - please explain how the 1 SOBE BOGO coupon makes the CVS SOBE BOGO sale mean 2 free SOBEs....

At CVS, you can pair a BOGO coupon with a BOGO sale and get both free. I actually emailed customer service a while back to get the policy via email. I've had one cashier at one store give me trouble with it. That's what prompted me to email corporate. Now I carry a copy of the corporate policy with me whenever I shop at CVS. If there are any questions, then I can show them the email.
