yes you can use another mang. coupon as long as using both coupoons doesn't go over purch .price of product. this mary vary from store to st store but i know publix at baker rd. acworth does.

The "may not be used in conjunction with any other coupon" is a little vague. Many Publix stores interpret this phrase to mean any other PUBLIX coupon. Because such a large percentage of stores interpret it this way, we allow discussion of combining these with manufacturer's coupons, but always try to add in a YMMV statement.

You sure can! That's when I have my best success, because I'm in FL too.

YAY!!!
Thank you so much, how do I rep you?!

And one more question...do you ever have any trouble with doing this and if so, how do you respond so they understand?

I've only had trouble once doing this, but that was part of a larger situation. Maybe it's in the FAQs, but I read an email somewhere that it is corporate policy to accept one manu. coupon and one Publix coupon per item purchased, and you are purchasing 2 items when you buy BOGO. If I had this problem again, I would tell the cashier that it's corporate policy...blah, blah...2 items...blah, blah. If they still wouldn't take the coupons, I would ask for a manager or take my coupons to CS after you've paid and they should give you your money back. In my situation, I ended up talking to the store manager on the phone and he told me that next time I was in to take my coupons to CS to be reimbursed, and that's just what happened. Normally, however, the cashiers just do it!

As far as repping...At the lower right hand side of the post that you want to rep someone for there is a little gray scale picture. Click on that, and type something if you would like. For me (and some other people have had this problem) I can't see the entire box, so I right click on the scales and open it in a new tab - then I can rep and leave a comment.

ETA - this is from the FAQs:
Q: May I use two coupons for a BOGO sale?
A: Yes, if you buy two items during a buy one, get one free sale, you may use the same combination of store and manufacturer coupons that you could use when buying the two items when not on sale. In other words, you're still buying two products even though one is "free".

Q: May I use a BOGO coupon on a BOGO sale?
A: YMMV, this varies by store. Some stores will ring up items for half price during a BOGO sale; others will ring up the items as full price for the first item and $0 for the second item. If the items are normally $4 and your store rings each item as $2, your BOGO coupon will get you two items for $2. If your store rings the first item at full price and the second at $0, your BOGO coupon will get you two free items.

Here's the link to the FAQs and the email I mentioned is at the end:

Hi!!

I'm in ...FLA..:

I had a $10/1....Nicoderm CQ.....Publix store cpn........and ...a $10/1..Nicoderm CQ......MFG cpn...both on 14ct or higher.....

They would not accept them together.......doesn't Publix usually combine these two type cpns....??

PLMK.....cpn is still good till...7/31/08


Thanks!!!!

[nrpeace17]

Yes, they normally would accept both. If there is overage involved they are supposed to adjust down to the balance.
You may have had a misinformed cashier, go to the Customer Service Manager, or Store Manager.
Some stores may choose to not allow the use of the Advantage Buy coupons along with a Mfr because of the verbiage on the coupon. Just make sure the ruling is coming from the Management and not a cashier who is uncooperative or uninformed.

Sorry if this has been addressed, I've looked but can't find anything.

I have several stores in my area (Alpharetta/Cumming,Georgia) just wanted to know if any of them double coupons.

TIA!

Hi, we don't have a list by store, but there is discussion in this thread:

Georgia has doubles, Florida doesn't.
