Store Policies

I had friends over earlier this evening that were curious about couponing and wanted to know how to get started. Well, I think we covered the basics, but I didn’t realize how much I really knew. I guess I just thought that everyone knew how to coupon but just didn’t.

So let me start with some of the basics for my area. I shop mostly in Burleson and Crowley, but also shop in Arlington and Mansfield.

Albertson’s
· Will Accept 4 Like Coupons
· Will Double / Triple up to 4 Like Coupons
· Will Double Up to and including $.39
· Will Triple Up to and including $.50
· They Double and Triple everyday, no sales dated needed
· It has been my experience to get overage, if you have fillers to consume it

Krogers
· Will Accept Unlimited Like Coupons
· Will Double / Triple up to 3 Like Coupons, After they are taken a face value
· Will Double Up to and including $.39
· Will Triple Up to and including $.50
· They Double and Triple everyday, no sales dated needed
· It has been my experience to get overage, if you have fillers to consume it

*Please note that at all of these store you can combine a manufacture q with a store q to maximize savings.
For example, last week Albertson’s has a coupon for a 24 pk of soda for $3.99 with additional purchase. I was able to purchase the 24 pk of Diet Coke and use the $3.99 Albertson’s coupon along with my $1 off 24 pk of Diet Coke peelie coupon.
So I paid $2.99 for a 24 pk of Diet Coke.
