Cub coupon info doc 95% complete. FAQ still in progress.

[coupon_pocket]

Update 11/01:
The coupon policy doc is nearing completion. I'll fill in the holes tomorrow morning. If you notice discrepancies between the doc and your actual experiences let me know so I can update and/or call again. There are stores in OH and IL whose ads and policies have virtually no similarities but I will see about doing matchups if people request it. I have started a new thread with more details.

The highlight of all my calling today was definitely with the Eden Prairie store. They accept expireds up to 5 months and are a franchise location. Baxter is 4 months.

All others were 3 months or less. One of the St Cloud stores was definitely the lowlight as the girl couldn't definitively answer anything. When I asked for a manager I was put on hold then hung up on.

Google Docs - Cub Coupon Policies

Here's some info I've thrown together so far.

Specials and Savings

Cub Foods does not match competitor’s prices or accept competitor’s coupons.

Every single Cub store I asked about rainchecks said the cashiers or CS desk provide them if you ask. I've noted tebar's issue with the Coon Rapids store in the doc. If anyone else reports issues with rainchecks I will call all the stores specifically about it.


As a general rule Cub stores accept Internet Printable manufacturer’s coupons in b&w or color and they also take manufacturer’s coupons up to 3 months (90 days) past their expiration date. See the doc for the exceptions though. I only asked a couple stores about the manu q's in the Cub ads, it was very hit and miss but surprisingly some stores do accept them w/i their expired policy. This is one of my questions I'll be asking in my next round of calling. In the meantime I would suggest asking first as some definitely do not.

Cub offers $.01 off gasoline purchases for every $10 spent, before store and manufacturer’s coupons. In the Twin Cities area I think most stores have partnered with Holiday for this and I don’t know how long it will continue. At the moment Cub is advertising that you can use up to 3 of these q’s in one fuel purchase on up to 12 gallons. I believe each q is limited to $.30 off.

A few Cub stores have their own pumps called Cub Fuel Express. There is one in Cambridge, Brooklyn Park, and Mankato that I know of. These stores use the same $.01 per $10 before store and manufacturer’s coupons but have higher limits. You can use up to 5 coupons in one fuel purchase on 15 gallons instead. The pumps have built in scanners so I believe they plan to keep this permanently. I believe each q is also limited to $.30 off.

Here are a few ways to contact Cub customer service.
The “unofficial” number associated with the mailing address below is (651) 439-7200

You can use their email form (their preferred method, I am unsure of their response time though)

coupon pocket...that's too long, would you be offended if I called you CP?
(I promise I won't add a 3 to the beginning and a O to the end.)

On a diff board I read that Cub may be taking other stores catalinas. Have you heard anything about this?

Oh, and I forgot to add, I love that you color coded the coupon rules for the unusual stores. It's nice to just whip down the list see there's some stores that I am not going to go into!

I have a couple RRs from Walgreens that I'll take with me tomorrow and I'll see what I can find out. I would guess unless this is new corporate policy that it will be YMMV. A good way to guage this in any store will probably be whether or not they take expired Manu q's from their weekly ads.

Honestly color coding them helped me get through the list.
I'm glad I know where not to go as well.

Always check the red/silver coupon kiosks. The deals seem to be improving each week. $1 off LOL milk when they have it -- works for me!

Since the St. Cloud stores are my closest cubs, I called them. *Unofficially*, if its a day or 2 expired they will(YMMV) take them, but nothing like 90 days.

The Cub in St. Paul off 94 on Roberts Street:
I just called them and they said they'd take internet printables 'as long as they scan'.

I've never asked in Shakopee, but I have used expired IP with no problem. I even used some expired Free Flat Earth IP and no one batted an eye.
