I'm hoping someone can help.

Are ther coupon guidelines somewhere? I noticed on one of the posts someone has used a buy one get one free coupon to just get something free through a self checkout without the addition purchase, I have also seen people use expired coupons.

Is this acceptable?

1) Can you tell me where those posts are that stated people were doing this so I can delete them or edit them? (You can private message me if you would rather)

2) Expireds are only allowed if your store takes them. I know some military commisaries take expireds and so (I think) does Meijer.

3) As for other coupons if you have a buy 1 get 1 free coupon you do have to purchase 2 items. However you can get 2 free is the store is currently having a buy 1 get 1 free and you use a buy 1 get 1 free coupon.

Not abiding by the rules of the coupon or the store that you are shopping at hurts everyone. Yes, you may get away with it this time but you could get the cashier fired and maybe cause a store to stop taking coupons due to too much coupon fraud! PLease use all coupons honestly! Hope this helps!
