Contacting companies for Coupons does work!

My DH is a huge fan of Right Guard.  He's actually a Right Guard SNOB.

Since starting on this couponing adventure I have asked him if he's willing to be "brand" flexible.  He has pretty much agreed to ANY thing I asked....with the exception of his under arm deodorant.  He only uses Original Right Guard Spray - it can't be Antiperspirant!  It has to be original

Not this:

But this:

After some discussion (and having to spend $4 dollars on 1 can) I decided to try to write to the company.  DH has never EVER used any other deodorant.  I have been with him almost 20 years and as God is my witness he's only used this brand and this scent.

So I decided to email the company after several searches for coupons turn up nothing.  I am doubtful I will hear anything back from the company...but to my surprise....this is what I received the other day:

Dear Mrs.XXXXXX

Thank you for taking the time to contact us.
 
We do not maintain a mailing list which allows us to 

distribute coupons on an on-going basis. You can, however,

contact us once every 3 months to request a coupon packet.

The best source for obtaining discount coupons for our

products is through newspaper and magazine advertisements

as well as right on our labels.
 
Your coupon(s) will follow with a hard copy of this letter

via U.S. Mail, which you should receivewithin the next 7-10

business days.
 
Consumer Affairs

HOW FRICKIN AWESOME IS THAT?!?!?!?

So I will blog about what comes in the mail and of course keep my eye out for any coupons from (dial.consumer affairs)

If you have a favorite brand - I would encourage you to seek them out.  You never know what you will get!
