Publix - Free Hallmark Greeting Cards A/C [x 2/14/10]

Yeah they totally only had V-day cards for .99 NO other cards!

Some stores definitely have a better selection than others. I've found some really nice cards though and I'm getting together quite a supply. I limit myself to 3 at a time because I don't want to be greedy, but I have not seen anyone else buying these or using the coupons ever. I guess I don't like to tie up the line with too many Publix coupons either, since they have to key those in.

Anyone have an official ruling on this one? Thanks!!

Sorry, I missed this question. I don't see any reason why you couldn't use both together.

Have really enjoyed using this coupon for cards and bows. Up until yesterday, as I'm sure you have all noticed, when the cashier puts in the LU#, it also removed the tax, so they were indeed totally free. Yesterday, the code did not remove tax. I bought another card at a different store just to verify. Looks like it might be system wide. I had a feeling they would figure it out and change it.

No tax for me today.

Now why did I keep skipping this post?? I've seen loads of these tearpads but never looked at them. I hope I can find a store with a .99 section. I'd feel kinda silly just checking the price on a bunch of cards! Thanks, OP! Reppin ya now!

I forgot to add 2 things:

1. My store has both a .99 section and .99 cards mixed into the other cards. Most of the "mixed in" ones, had .99 in a black circle on the tab thing that tells you the kind of card (birthday, anniversary, etc).

2. My cashier almost refused them today because she said Hallmark Expressions is a special line of Hallmark. She stated that those actually say Hallmark Expressions on the package (or back of the card). I did not look. I just told her that these were hanging above EVERY SINGLE SECTION OF CARDS, including the .99 ones.

I am going to have to go with your cashier on this one.

Every .99 card I looked at tonight, at 3 different stores, simply says "Hallmark" on the back. Most of the other cards do say "Expressions from Hallmark" on them. They are obviously two different lines of Hallmark cards, just as she says. Hallmark seems to consider it a completely different "brand" on their website. From their website..

In addition to the flagship Hallmark brand, the company also markets greeting cards and other products under the brand names Expressions From Hallmark, Ambassador and Connections From Hallmark.

Please be sure you're using these on the correct cards.

Crap, I guess I'll be returning the ones I bought and "hunt" a little further.....
