coupons worth a penny more

[tiffany4772]

I'm never able to get any of the "freebies" that others post about. If something is priced at 0.99 and I have a coupon for $1 off, the cashier will not accept it. Am I the only one?

That's ridiculous! They should at least give you the .99 off. The cashier is incorrect.

Really? I asked if they could "adjust it down" and she said no. This has happened twice. Is there a policy somewhere that I can print and take with me?

Before you shop next time talk to management and get the answer so you can let the cashier know when you check out.

So this is Target? If so, did you search the Target forum for answers too? Hopefully one of the "pro's" on this site will address this for you. I know Walmart has its coupon policies posted on their site, not sure about Target.

They can absolutely adjust it down. Check the FAQ I think we have something there you can print and take. We have all been told this a some point and it is just not correct. Arm youself with knowledge, talk to corporate and get back in there!!

It's in their coupon policy on their website that they can adjust it down.

Not sure if I'm allowed to post links but just do a search for "Target coupon policy or Walmart coupon policy to find the links for these.

Target Stores Coupon Policy

Coupons are a great way to save even more when shopping with us, and it's easy to use them at our stores.

• Target accepts one manufacturer coupon and one Target coupon for the same item (unless prohibited)
• Super Target coupons can be used in any Target store if the store carries the item
• We gladly accept valid internet coupons

Because of the variety of coupons available to our guests, we do have some guidelines for how coupons can be redeemed at Target.

When accepting coupons, we use the following guidelines:

• We accept two kinds of coupons: Target-issued coupons and manufacturer-issued.
• We'll accept one Target coupon and one manufacturer coupon for the same item, unless either coupon prohibits it.
• Coupon amount may be reduced if it exceeds the value of the item after other discounts or coupons are applied.
• We can't give cash back if the face value of a coupon is greater than the purchase value of the item.
• We can't accept coupons from other retailers, or coupons for products not carried in our stores.
• All valid coupons should be presented to the cashier while you're checking out.
