enfamil coupon question

melszum

So I know the $5 enfamil coupons say they cannot be duplicated but i photocopied a bunch at work. Do you think stores will not accept them? The photocopy looks exactly like the original. I am guessing the numbers on it are unique. Also, when I went to the website veri-fi.com and entered my coupons number it said invalid which it should not be because I just printed it! I have become an extreme couponer combining checks, manufacturer coupons and store coupons!

Photocopying coupons is illegal.  Please read the information below.

 

Can I photocopy coupons that I have printed from the Internet?The short answer? No! The semi-short answer? NoNoNoNo, A Thousand Times No!The long answer? Here?s a few reasons why:If you wouldn?t consider trying to photocopy a coupon from a weekly insert, why would you think it was ok to photocopy a printable coupon?  I have said many times that coupons are a form of payment, not a discount.  It really is the same as trying to photocopy the $20 bill in your wallet and trying to use that as payment.Aside from that, printable coupons have several security features to help reduce fraud (which photocopying of coupons is)?the most noticeable being the unique serial number in the upper right-hand side of the coupon (click on the picture below to enlarge it and read about the different features).

That number is unique to each coupon. Print out 2 copies of a coupon from almost any site (mostcoupon sites will allow you 2 prints per computer) and you will see that the two coupons may have identical UPC barcodes, but different serial numbers. The companies will only reimburse ANY store for that one serial number one time.Bottom line: Copy coupons and use them? The coupons WILL scan at the store, but once they hit the clearinghouse (where the coupons are processed and the stores get reimbursed) any duplicate serial codes will be rejected and the store won?t get paid for your photocopied coupons. So you save money, the store doesn?t get paid and once ?corporate? finds out, the cashier and store manager possibly both get ?written up?.  Does that seem fair?I am choosing to assume that the 8 variations of this question that I received on a recent survey were honest questions from people who didn?t KNOW that you can?t photocopy coupons. If you have been photocopying coupons because you didn?t know that you couldn?t, I hope that this inspires you to please STOP RIGHT NOW.

?because photocopying printable coupons is Coupon Fraud.
