    QUESTION Coupon stacking/policy question

    Can anyone answer this? The coupon policy on their site is super confusing and vague...

    Example:

    I am purchasing 6/pks of Propel Water. They are on sale for 2/$5. I am getting back a $3 cat that's good for 4 so I use 2 $2.50 off 2 and then the Cat. So my total oop with tax is $2.60/4. Now they have to push through the cat every time and I questioned it thinking I was wrong but a manager said it's fine and pushes them through every time.

    With that same scenario, I now got coupons that give you a free single bottle of Propel with the purchase of 1 6/pk. Do you think I could throw that in the mix? Is there any way to know without having to look like a butt when I ask a manager again? :0)

    Don't be alarmed. Most often the catalinas need a manager key. Especially when you have two together. Several times there have been two cats that printed for the same deal. One offered by the store, the other by the manufacturer. They always need an over-ride.

    You most definitely can use the cat for the free bottle.

    I've also had to have a manager key when my coupon savings reached a certain percent.

    I have had this too. I often use my ONYO cats to go buy pullups. I'll typically stack that cat with a coupon and that is all I buy. They have to push it through, but it is totally fine.

    Received response back from corporate:

    "Thank you for your inquiry. Yes you can use the manufacturer's coupon and
    the catalina coupon on the same item. Thank you for your business.

    So glad you guys posted about being able to do this at your store! Course, my store is a pain in the butt when it comes to coupons, but am so excited that I have this in writing!!!

    You know, I was a little worried there for a minute. I was beginning to think I was doing someting really wrong even though they have never given me a hard time about the cats. (knocks on wood)

    What CATs are we talking about? These are product specific CATs that are also store specific, correct. Don't these say Manufacturer Coupon on them, and isn't that why they usually beep, because you are using two coupons on one item. OYNO I can see using with a manufacturer coupon, but product specific CATs with manufacturer coupons for the same item is interesting. I see the post from corporate, but I wonder if she misunderstood or else I misunderstand what we are talking about.

    I have been talking about the ONYO cats and the Weis Bucks cats, not manufacturer coupon cats. I don't think that would ever fly at my Weis.
