Can someone in FL help me out?

My sister moved from WI and is now attending FSU. :sad: Money is tight for her and I would love to help her out as much as I can. I would love to send her coupons and help her find deals so she will actually eat something besides peanut butter and cereal.

Would someone be willing to clue me into what is going on so I know what to send her and tell her to get. I called the local store and this is what I was told:

They accept ANY value IP (rare if not impossible to find in my area).

Will accept a Publix coupon as well as a man. coupons as long as the wording doesn't prohibit it.

Will accept ANY competitors coupon (wish I could find ONE store that would do that here)

Accept 2 coupons for BOGO.

Any advice would be very appreciated. TIA

Yes, up to a $5 value. Above that it may require management approval.

Will accept a Publix coupon as well as a man. coupons as long as the wording doesn't prohibit it.
Yes.

They don't accept any, but most supermarket competitors' coupons. Most accept Target coupons. Some areas allow CVS and WAG as competitors, but that is rare in my area. The best thing to do is go to the CS desk and ask who they accept as their competitors.

Accept 2 coupons for BOGO.
Yes.

Any advice would be very appreciated. TIA

My Publix takes a Publix coupon and a manu on a single item. They will also let me use b1g1 free coupons when the item is b1g1. I can also use 2 coupons when it is b1g1 free. I cannot use Kmart coupons, CVS or Walgreens coupons, I have never trield Food Lion since there is not one close.

We've been spoiled with the sneak peeks early on the ad previews. I believe she has Albertsons and Winn Dixie as competitors so they would accept their coupons as well. I'm in central FL and after speaking with my area DM last week was told they only accept Target if there is a Super Target in your area. So you may have her check to be sure on that.

I live in South Florida- Ft. Lauderdale area. Publix takes only Albertsons and Winndixie coupon's as competitors. We have several Super Target stores in the area, but Publix doesn't take their copuons.
