I know they do not accept competitor coupons... but if you have a manufacturer coupon... you should be able to use it at any store that takes coupons... example: walgreens easy saver coupons say they are a manufacturer coupon, but they are NOT. you could not use those at bloom..... sometimes publix has flyers out that do have actual manufacturer coupons in them, and you should be able to use those anywhere., even though they have a store logo on them.

my coupons are manufacturers coupons but they were issued by CVS and have CVS/pharmacy on the front in LARGE letters. Bi-Lo and Harris Teeter said they would not get re-imbursed if they took them. Lowes employee said they would take them over the phone, hoped to use them at Bloom.

if they have a self checkout in your bloom I would recommend using it instead of going through the line.... that way if they scan, then no problem. if you have a bunch you want to use I would do a test transaction at the self checkout with just one item and one coupon so it isnt a huge loss if they dont work.

I was told Bloom has a limit on the u-scan of 2-3-4 coupons?
I know my coupons scan because a clerk at Bi-Lo accepted 2 of them. But, then other times, store managers at Bi-Lo and HT said they would not get re-imbursed, so I do not want to violate any of the coupons rules and etiquette (which, on other sites, you will be criminalized for implying you might do something when all you're doing in a thread is stating opinion or fact about something you saw or heard). (ex: some stores DO accept expireds. I stated that once and was accused of using expireds)
