Stacking Coupons Question

[mommyinzion]

I have 2 coupons that I'm using together and am wondering if I'm not supposed to stack them because they are coded exactly the same.

It's the $1/2 Kelloggs Cereal is identical to the Buy 2 Cereals get $1 off fruit.

As far as I've always known the $1/2 Cereals are being used on my cereals and the $1 off fruit is being used on the fruit. I'm assuming they are coded the same to make sure I'm really buying the cereals, but it's a pain when the coupons beep and you have to explain to a cashier!

I'm wondering since some store are starting to not allow some stacking scenarios, like BOGO with $1 off Q, if I'm really not supposed to stack these.

Any thoughts?
