Coupon Limit?

[thinkerbell]

Nevermind. Simple question.

No limit at the stores that I go to....that I know of. I've never tried to use that many of the same product though

I've never encountered that. However, if the 10 for $10 was a sale price, most of the stores around here wouldn't have accepted the coupons anyways. They won't do double discounts.

I would have thought there would be some fine print there near/on the dispenser regarding their limit.

I know some offers specifically say a limit of one or a limit of four offers. Otherwise I would assume there are not. These are clipless coupons that go onto your account.

I am not sure if they limit the number of the same paper coupons you can use. Some coupons have limits printed on them. I guess I usually have multiples of the same coupon. The store should have had the limit posted by the display.

I would have felt a little guilty for taking 20 coupons in the first place. I know they’re there to take but I still wouldn’t have taken that many. Maybe 5 at the most.

I never take more than 2 out of one of those dispensers. I think it's rude to other people, if they come along and the machine is empty.
Our local Martins (Giant) will let you use coupons along with sale prices. They also double coupons up to $1, but you can only use one coupon for an item. In other words if a certain brand of bread is on sale, and you have a coupon , you can use 1 $.99 cent coupon, get it doubled, but if you buy another loaf of the same bread, and have another coupon for it, then it's only redeemed at face value.

Does your grocery store limit coupons? A local grocery store on my way home from work had a sale on the little daisy cottage cheese/fruit single servings. I love them and take them to work for breakfast all the time. Anyway, they were 10 for $10. I got 20 of them. We rarely use coupons but right beside them was one of those little coupon dispensers so I got 20 coupons. When I got to the check out, the lady said she thought there was a limit on how many coupons they would take. She went and got a girl at the customer service counter and she came over and said it was corporate policy that they won’t take more than 4 of the same coupon. They had no notice posted, we asked. Didn’t make a big deal but did let them know we didn’t understand their reasoning. They didn’t offer a reason other than corporate policy. The coupons were not just store coupons so they would get their money back from the manufacturer. We bought 4 and let them put the rest back. We went on over to the same name grocery store that is nearer to our house, bought 20 of the cottage cheese things, used the 20 coupons with no problem. Got a great deal. With the coupon, it made them 50 cents each. Does your grocery store limit coupons?

There's usually a limit of one or two of same type coupons at at time at all the stores I use. But you can return multiple times to use more.

Only use coupons from our grocery store, no limit. Seems like every day I get those newspaper flyers in the mail with coupons, but most of the time the price with the coupon is more than another brand of the same product, so a waste of my time.

Is it a manufacturer's coupon you took? Those should have limits listed on it, sometimes that's of the same exact product, sometimes it's of the same brand (or umbrella brand like P&G), sometimes it's of like products.

As far as corporate policy that may depends on franchised locations vs corporate owned ones.

FWIW I agree with others 20 is way too many to have taken, it defeats the purpose for the coupons to have someone just take so many of them. It helps spread the love if you will towards others by not having 1 patron gobble it all up.

To answer the question yes there are places here that do limit coupons.

 

[starry_solo]

Yup, mine are between two and four of the coupon for the same item

 

[Cannot_Wait_4Disney]

I say, take all they have in stock and just bring the whole dispenser up. Tell the checker to just grab however many I have items for..... Yeah baby!!!

Never mind.
