HSA card denied certain purchases question

Has anyone else had items denied at the register when using your HSA card? My wife went to a Walgreens to buy some medicine and stuff for my sick daughter, and some of the items were denied? Its been a couple weeks so I forget what all it was, but it was all like cough drops, bandaids (not cold related), and stuff like that. Maybe things like a salt bath or something. Certainly all "health" related.
I guess they have items listed as qualified or not in the registers now? I don't mind it, I just didn't know they started doing this.

Happens all the time. I don't use it because of that. I would rather use my venture card and get the points and reimburse myself. It's a win win if you're willing to put in an extra 5 min of work.

I've never had my HSA card denied and I'm pretty sure I have snuck Oreos on there a few times 
Who is your HSA with?

Technically, non-prescription meds are not HSA eligilble. That said, I've never heard of the card denying specific items. After all, you could theoretically buy whatever you want with HSA funds as long as you pay the taxes and penalties at the end of the year for ineligible purchases.

I've used an HSA account to make credit card payments before
