Change in double value coupon policy??

[pcake]

I was in a Kroger store that isn't my usual today. There were signs up about coupon values-I don't remember the wording but something like "double the value of the FIRST coupon up to 50 cents and then any duplicates of that coupon used in the same transaction would be at face value only". This is a huge change as far as I am concerned and certainly not a good one, in my opinion. Has anyone else run into this? Any suggestions for dealing with it? Thanks!

No, not yet! What state are you in? I'm in Texas.

What? I hope that isn't true. That would be so messed up!!

There is one store in my area that has signs like that. I think they are old signs that were never removed. I ended up talking to the district manager, and he said that was not the policy at that store and that all his stores double multiples. I haven't been back to that store recently to see if the signs are still there or not.

I'm in Georgia- and in a suburb of Atlanta.

This isn't the store I usually use to shop. I was really startled! Hope it DOES NOT catch on here.

I'm in NW GA and I noticed these signs at my store. They are new signs hanging from the ceiling. I was kinda bummed when I saw them. :frown:

What suburb and what store if you don't mind telling?

I'm in an Atlanta suburb, too, and I have not seen a sign like this. That would be horrible!

I live in Cartersville which is about 40 minutes north of Atlanta, depending on how fast your driving , and you can be sure I'll be going by my Kroger tomorrow and checking this out. Thank you so much for posting and giving us a head's up, whether it is an old policy or a new one. I'll let you guys know tomorrow what my manager tells me. Thanks again everybody.
Whew, that is a scary thought. :shrug7:

The sign was hanging from the ceiling, and the store was in Lawrenceville, on Grayson Highway! I do not remember seeing it before, but again, this isn't the store I usually use.
