BJ's Coupon Policy (taken from their website)

Does BJs accept expired coupons? If not, this would be considered coupon fraud.

another quick check on using a man coupon on top op0f a BJ's coupon.....i know the self checkout will do it just fine, BUT i am sending hubby tonight and want to make sure the coupon policy is still the same that i can use a man. coupon WITH a clipped coupon from the sunday paper. Their in store flyer expires today and has a TON of BOGO stuff that i have coupons for!

I just went and used both and had no problems. I had a bjs coupon for $4/2 boxes of cresent rolls. I used that and then I had 4 0.30 off one can coupons and used those too. No problems.

As for the expired ones going through the self check out, try one at the regular check out and if the cashier won't let it or it won't go through then you can't do it.

I need some advise on whether or not I should pursue a coupon issue with my local BJs.

A Progresso soup six-pack in my store is $9.

There is a BJs coupon for $2.50 off. I also have numerous IPs that look like this: (2) save $1/3, (2) save $1/2, and (2) save $2/4.

I e-mailed BJs before I went to the store to find out if I could use the BJs Q with one of my $2/4 and one of my $1/2 (totaling 3 coupons altogether). According to the e-mail I received I am allowed to use as many ManQs as there are items in the pack. I can also combine a BJs Q with a ManQ. But the e-mail was vague as to whether I could do what I wanted to do. So, armed with this knowledge I went to the store to ask the manager if I could do this (because I didn't want the store to think I was trying to get away with something). I told him that whatever his decision was I would abide by it, but possibly look into it further.

And this is what he told me: I can combine a BJs Q with ManQs as long as the item total does not go over the item count in the pack, BUT he counts the BJs Q as one item. Soooo... I could only use the BJs and the $2/4 because the $1/2 would end up totaling 7 items. -OR- I could just use two of the ManQs ($1/2 and $2/4) which totals six items.

It still works out as a good deal (w/ the BJs Q), but I want to know if this is in keeping with BJs coupons policy? It seems contradictory to say "Yes you can use as many ManQs as items" and "Yes you can use BJs coupons with ManQs", but you can't do both together. But maybe I am just not getting it.

Hopefully this is not too confusing and someone can offer up some good advise.

I've never had a problem using a BJ's Q and a manu Q even when there are more coupons than items. I always use self checkout and the employee has to keep coming by to do an override, they always take my coupons without batting an eye. I always thought you could do as many manufactures coupons as items + Bjs coupons.

That's what I thought too. The manager DID NOT like the idea that I would be getting a $9 product for only $3.50! When I questioned his logic, that is when he came up with the "I have have to count the BJs coupon as one item" reason. It seems somewhat arbitrary to me, a way for him to make me pay more for the item.

I asked him if this was the policy at all the stores and he said it was the way he had been taught.

There was another employee there, a regional stocking manager, and she seemed to be more in tune with what I wanted to do. She told me to get in touch with her if I found out that the policy was different from what the manager told me so that they can train the employees the correct way.

I didn't know they took regular mfc nice! I dunno if this was posted already, kinda going cross eye reading so much lol..How does b1g1 work? so I guess its better to go through the self checkout with coupons then?

I was in bjs a couple of days ago and also have the progresso man q. i didn't attempt at that point in time to purchase. after i left i looked through the bjs brochure that is kept at customer service and it has several coupons. it also had that if you buy so many items on a certain list, you will get 5, 7, or 10 dollars off. progresso is included.

I have no idea the actual policy because my store seems to take anything. I bought a 2 pack of welch's juice the other day and used 2 $1/1 bottle coupons plus a bj's coupon for $1.25/1 2 pack. So that's 3 coupons for 2 items and not a single problem. I think your manager might be the issue.

From the way I understand the policy it's bj's coupons with any manufacturer coupons as long as the manufacturer coupons don't go over the item count. You really aren't using them "together" if you can't use all your coupons.
