If I'm at the grocery, I can use multiple coupons on the same item? Let's say I'm buying rice, and it's $2, my coupon is for $.50 and my store doubles, can I use another coupon on the same product and it is now free??
I just joined tonight and am trying to figure this out. I use coupons, but have not had the drastic savings that is apparently available!

No--you would be trying to use 2 coupons on one item being purchased. You MAY be able to do it if one coupon is a STORE coupon & one is a MANUFACTURER coupon. That would depend on your store's policy, if they allow stacking and/or if they would double their own coupons. But you can NEVER do it with 2 manufacturer's coupons for the SAME (ONE) item. If possible, buy the rice that's $1--THEN it would be free. HTH!

You can only use 1 manufacturer coupon per item. You can (at most stores) combine a manf coupon and a store coupon together.
So, let's say you're buying 4 cans of corn. You could use 4 manf .25/1 coupons. If you also had a store coupon for .25/1 you could use those too and get .50 off each can.
If your rice is $2 and you have a .50 coupon and your store doubles, you pay $1 for the rice.
Hope this helps a bit!
