Anyone know the scoop for the King Soopers in Ft.Collins or one nearby?

Thanks!

I'm sorry I don't....there are some gals on here from around that area I'm sure..feel free to make a new thread...might jump out at someone better than this thread.

Thanks. I'll give that a shot.

Okay. Hi!
I stumbled across this webpage, and work as a checker at King Soopers (among other departments).

The network has been updated, so policies are going to be enforced more- regardless of the cashier or customer's say. (I don't know for certain if this is all stores, but computer changes are usually regionally the same).
Error messages like 'Too many coupons' WILL show up if you try to use over the allotted amount on one item.

Also, please don't get angry at the cashiers for not taking five of your coupons. If they are sticking to the limit, they are just trying to do their job effectively and you should never forget that.

Any other questions I can answer would be fine, as well.

Oh, and PLEASE, do not be like the person who posted their story about not getting 11 nail polishes for free and complaining about it.
We do NOT get reimbursed the way you think we do. It's ridiculous to demand we violate story policy because you feel you deserve something for nothing. Chances are that nobody in the store has anything to do with formation of policy- they're all just people trying to do their jobs.

I'm sorry 3 completely free nail polishes wasn't enough; and please stick to Albertson's.

Hi there...

I'm sorry some previous posters comment has upset you (the nail polish). You must understand alot of our posters are new and still learning the tools of the trade along with store policies and individual store rules. Would be nice if all stores would just enforce the same policy all the way around, that way we wouldn't have the confusion and such about the acceptance of coupons or other issues....

As for your statement about "not being reimbursed the way we think you are"...can you explain into further detail? How are you reimbursed?

Could you explain further what you mean by "over the allotted amount on one item"? And I am curious also about how the reimbursement was explained to you.

Most everyone on here is just trying to maximize the deals we can get using coupons. We do not believe we deserve something for nothing but hope that we can accomplish this by using sale prices and coupons. As with every group of people there are always a few that are excessive and unreasonable but this is discouraged and monitored on this board as much as the moderators can. I hope that you will take the time to read thru the start up threads to learn about couponing and see what a great way it is to stretch your hard-earned dollars.

Welcome to the boards!

Thank you for post. I'm confused. Is there a link to the policy that didn't show up? I don't see anything in your post about their policy.

Thanks

I live in Greeley. I'm not sure what all you are wanting to know but I do know that their coupon policy includes that there can be no more than three like coupons per transaction. They also double coupons up to 50 cents and anything over 50 cents becomes $1. The stores I go to do accept printables. Ummm...I'm not sure what else. If there is anything else I may have forgotten, let me know and I will answer to what I know.

Thank you so much! Only 2 other questions. Do they double IPs and is there a limit of how many like coupons can be used in a transaction?

Thanks and reps!

I'm sorry to say this, but I am not surprised that you work at King Soopers. I always follow the 3-like coupon rule and still get ridiculous treatment at my store. It's as if the coupons are coming out of the cashier's paychecks. Maybe you don't realize it, but your post has a hostile tone (look at the subsequent responses).
