Kmart ~ Question: K-Mart: Question on tearpads found in store...

[BoydTeam]

I am so confused after reading various reports on the tearpads found at K-Mart ($1.50 Aloe Fresh, $1.50 Purex etc..) It says do not double but do they? I am now hearing others say they can be stacked with manf. coupons ($1.25 Vaseline, $2.00 Purex) that will double. True?

Help :shrug7:

I emailed Kmart asking if *kmart* coupons can be combined along with regular MQ - I have been told that it is up to the individual store whether or not they want to combine both. Nice huh?

I have yet to go into Kmart so I'm not sure what the wording is on the TP's you speak of though.

How is the coupon coded? 4, 5 or 9? (first number in the bar code)
4 = store coupon, should be able to combine w/ manu Q, depends on the store.
5 = will double
9 = will not double

some of those "kmart" coupons are actually manufacturer that just have a kmart logo on them...and the $1.50/1 purex i found was a manufacturer with no logo on it...

you need to read the coupon too...if it says "kmart store coupon" it is a kmart coupon, if it says "manufacturer" on it then it is a manufacturer coupon....

i stear clear of the kmart coupons...they arent that good and it says they wont double (i am sure someone has had them double)....and my kmart has never let me use a kmart with a manufacturer

I went today and the Kmart tear pad coupons I had did not double, the ones I had were for Secret deodorant and assorted bodwashes. Also coupons that start with a 9 did double, specifically I had some of the Dove soap coupons from the Unilever booklet, those started with a 9, but do not state DND. Oh another DND 9 I had was for $2 off Axe shampoo, doubled fine!

When I went today I was told the tearpads (the secret/old spice one and the gillette/axe (I think) one) would not double because they are rewards and do not ring as coupons. Wish I would have known that before hand because I could have doubled 2 more Qs!! I went straight there after working a 12 hr shift so by the time I made it to the register there was no going back LOL

I don't know about the doubling thing but I do know that you cannot combine coupons at Kmart. Kmart's store coupons are usually manf. coupon and they cannot be combined with any other manf. coupons.

I just found one of these Q that says Kmart Savings Coupon on the top and the "fine" print says "Cannot be combined with any other coupon for the same item(s) and is not subject to doubling. Limit one (1) per TRANSACTION....Savings may be applied and pro-rated across all qualifying items for the offer, including qualifying items purchased in addition to the minimum requirements of the promotion...

So it sounds like they should not let you combine them with mani Qs or double them and you can only use one like Q for your entire order right?

Found a lot of new Kmart tearpads last night (NOT manuf. coupons)...and none of the ones I saw had any wording that would not allow them to combine with a mfg coupon.

I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask, so I tried it with the Olay body wash, which was 6.79. I had a $2/1 coupon, doubled to $4 and I showed the cashier the tearpad (which was $2/1) and she said yes, I could use that too but it wouldn't double...Worked fine, had the blessing of my cashier and CSM who was standing next to her, and I got a large bottle of olay body wash for 79 cents.

I found those two tearpads some time ago at our local KM. I'm assuming "Aloe Fresh" is for Vaseling lotion? At least here, these are MQs beginning with 5. They should double without problems. No stacking though.
