the revlon coupons start with 0997 - some of the lipsticks have barcodes starting with 0033 or 0031, the coupon will beep for those (but the cashier should push them through anyway, since you are using the coupon correctly). if you buy the lipsticks with barcodes starting with 0997, no beeps.

-$1 thermacare

this coupon will beep if used on thermacare in older p&g packaging (but the cashier should push them through anyway, since you are using the coupon correctly)

♥ profit on both transactions combined: $11.30 ♥

i was able to avoid beeping on the revlon coupons by buying the lipsticks with barcodes starting with 0997. i would have gotten more thermacare, but they only had one in stock. i will ask for a raincheck later in the week if they don't get more in!

couldn't find the Alteril Sleep Aid 4 ct. might have to get a raincheck on that too.
