Formula Coupons Question...

So everytime I go to Target I use more than 1 similac checks (I usually buy 1 lg container and use 4-$5 checks) I have been doing this several times and have never had a problem.....until today..the lady would only let me use 1 check and read on the coupon that it says one coupon per purchase, which it does. I was really bummed since I have been getting away with using more than one coupon every purchase. I told her I have been doing it this way for weeks and that you better talk to your employees if thats the case. Bummer!! I'm going to have to hunt down those teenage checkout boys next time, they never seem to care! lol....SO has anyone been able to use more than one coupon, or do you only ever use one?

Re: Formula Coupons Question...

  • I have only ever tried using 1 at a time because the checks had that disclaimer. Maybe I will have to try using multiples ;)

  • Lucky you for being able to do it for a little while anyway! I've only been able to use one check per item. I tired at Walmart to use a $5 and $1 on one tub of formula and they wouldn't let me. Boo!

  • I had the same problem last week at target.  I was so bummed because a week before that I was using multiple checks per purchase.  I actually now just get my formula from shoprite while grocery shopping and they let me use multiple checks.  It is easier then making a special trip to Target.

    I have only used 1 check per can of formula, but I have stacked coupons with the checks for a bigger savings and used my Target Debit for an extra 5% off.

  • The store will not get reimbursed if you use more than one check per item so I essence your stealing from the store by doing that and making it harder for those of us who use coupons legally.

  • Babies r us told me they could do 2 at a time. They also had no problem ringing up several purchases for me on after the other so that I could use more.

    This is different than using multiple checks on one can.  When a coupon says "one coupon per purchase"  it means one coupon per item purchased so if you buy two can you can use two coupons.  When it says one coupon per transaction that's when the cashier has to ring one up you pay and then start over again.  If it says one coupon per person per day then you can't even do that. I've been a sahm for over a year now by using coupons to decrease what my family spends on everything so I've learned to understand the restrictions on coupons.
