Karen,
ReplyDeleteFirst I want to thank you for helping all of us new to the coupon world with your blog site. Thank you thank you thank you! I have a question for you.
I was at Rainbow today and was told that I could not use internet manufacture's coupons that are for free items or BOGO. Have you ever heard of this before? Every other store I have used them at has never said anything. Just curious if you have ever run into this before.
thanks for the help.

Katie...Yes, I have run into problems with using the newest BOGO coupon for the eggs and they told me the same thing. There have been way too many dishonest people who think that it is okay to copy them.
ReplyDeleteSo until Rainbow Corp can verify that yes, there was a printable coupon for the item, they won't take the coupons.
Thanks Karen! I knew you would have an answer for me, I appreciate the help!
