Does Smith's double or triple coupons and if so what are the details?

Everyday -- no. But, on very rare occassion, Smith's offer coupon round-ups, doubles, sometimes even double dollars. In 2006, it was only offered once -- the weekend after Thanksgiving (last weekend in November). In 2007 and 2008, it was not offered at all. In 2009, it was offered a couple of times in selected markets as a Coupon Round-Up to $1 total value. In 2010, there were 2 coupon round-up events (all coupons under $1 equal $1). There was an additional round-up in the Utah market. There were no double coupons in any Smith's market in 2011. So sad....

How does Smith's handle BOGO sales and coupons? Can I use 2 coupons on a BOGO sale?

YMMV using 2 coupons on BOGO sales. Some cashiers at Smith's let you use 2 coupons on BOGO specials, one for each item. (Maximize your savings!) Other cashiers only allow one coupon since the second coupon now beeps.

Do I need a store card to get in on the savings?

Yes you need a Smith's Food & Drug rewards card to get the advertised prices. You can get a card at the store from the Customer Service Desk or from the cashier. If you forget or lose your card, you can use your linked phone number on the customer terminal at the check-out lane.
