BJs Coupon Policy

I love shopping for bulk items at BJs. Here's the lowdown on using coupons at BJs found on their website here and here. This information is valid as of 7/8/15.

Can I use coupons?

Absolutely! BJ's accepts all manufacturers' coupons - including the ones that come in your Sunday newspaper - giving you additional savings on top of our everyday low prices. Plus, we offer BJ's Members-only coupons throughout the year. After all, saving you money is what BJ's is all about.
You can get your exclusive BJ's coupons:
  • Online. Members, you can access and print in-Club coupons once you register with an online account on BJs.com. Register by clicking on "Sign In/Register" at the top of any BJs.com page.
  • In BJ's Journal, a BJ's Member magazine
  • Through special-offer mailings
  • In BJ's in-Club coupon flyers
  • Via email. If you are registered on BJs.com, you can sign in to your online account, select "Email Subscribe/Unsubscribe" and then select "Subscribe me for all BJ's promotional emails" to receive BJ's emails and weekly updates on BJs.com Instant Coupons.
Please note: BJ's does not accept mobile coupons at this time.

What are the guidelines for using more than one coupon?

When purchasing a multi-pack of "individual for sale" packaged items, which is a set of items that could be sold individually (each item has a barcode) shrink-wrapped and sold together, shoppers can use multiple manufacturer's coupons and ONE BJ's coupon on it. The total value of the coupons cannot exceed the total retail value of the item.
Examples of a multipack:Three-pack of toothpasteTwo-pack of salad dressingThree-pack of taco kits
Examples of products that are NOT a multipack:Box of cereal that contains two bags (the bags cannot be sold individually)Case of waterCase of sodaCase of motor oil
Members may also use one BJ's coupon and one manufacturer's coupon on a single item.
All buy one, get one free (BOGO) offers will be honored for in stock items only for a maximum value that does not exceed BJ's retail. If the manufacturer's coupon does not state the maximum value, we cannot honor the coupon.

*BJ's cannot accept multiple BJ's-issued coupons on a product.
*All coupons must be presented within the valid begin/end date range shown on the coupon.  If the coupon is expired, it will not be accepted.
*BJ's does not accept mobile coupons at this time.

Official Dollar Tree Coupon Policy (Effective 8-26-12)

So for once the gossip spreading through the rumor mill is true! Dollar Tree WILL be accepting manufacturer's coupons starting August 26, 2012.

Here is the official coupon policy straight from the source.


IN-STORE COUPON ACCEPTANCE: GUIDELINES & LIMITATIONS

DOLLAR TREE WILL ACCEPT COUPONS IN STORES BEGINNING SUNDAY, AUGUST 26, 2012
  1. Only original and intact manufacturers’ coupons will be accepted. Retailer-specific coupons will not be accepted.
  2. Coupons are void if copied, scanned, or if they have been altered in any way.
  3. Only two (2) print-at-home Internet coupons may be redeemed per transaction.
  4. We are unable to accept coupons for “Free” items with no purchase requirements or where the amount for the product is blank.

Walmart Deal

Here's a great deal worth the [short] drive to Walmart.

Right now, Walmart has all Olay body wash for $5.

In the most recent P&G insert (November issue with black front), there's a coupon buy 1 Secret, get $5 off any Olay product. There's no size restriction on either item.

Buy a trial size Secret [$.97 at my Walmart] and any Olay body wash and only pay $.97 plus tax! Luckily my state seems to charge tax post-coupons! Yay!

Be careful: the coupon states you can only use 4 per transaction, so don't go with an armful of coupons in case you get one of those finicky cashiers!

Happy Couponing!

Family Dollar's Corporate Coupon Policy

There was a Family Dollar grand opening today in my hometown on Warren, RI. I'm even more excited to know that in addition to their good prices, they also accept coupons.

Family Dollar's coupon policy can be found on their website. This information is valid as of 7/8/15..

Here are their guidelines:

Family Dollar Stores, Inc. Coupon Policy

Family Dollar Stores ACCEPT Manufacturer and Family Dollar issued coupons including:
  • Printed Coupons
  • Internet Coupons
  • Mobile Coupons

Family Dollar Stores ACCEPT Manufacturer and Family Dollar issued coupons that meet these requirements:
  • Only ONE Manufacturer coupon and ONE Family Dollar coupon can be used per ITEM in a transaction. 
  • Duplicate coupons in one transaction are accepted as long as there is an item purchased for each coupon.
  • All Family Dollar coupons must have a scannable barcode or valid promotion code.
  • Printed coupons must be original (no photocopies) and have a printed expiration date.
  • Internet coupons may either be in black and white or color and must be legible and read “Family Dollar” or “Manufacturer Coupon”.
  • Mobile coupons must have a valid promotion code.

Please note:
  • Coupons can be redeemed only for items that are described on the coupon. The copy on the coupon dictates which items are to be included in the offer, not the image of what is shown on the coupon.
  • Coupons can be redeemed if the value of the coupon is greater than the price of the item. In this case, the value of the coupon will be discounted to match the price of the item. 
  • Family Dollar $5 off $25 coupon is accepted as long as the net purchase, AFTER all other offers, coupons and/or discounts have been applied is $25 or more.
  • Coupons are acceptable for use on sale or clearance items.

Family Dollar does NOT ACCEPT coupons that:
  • Are from other retailers.
  • Are expired.
  • Are in home (internet) printed “Free Item” coupons that do not require a purchase. 
  • Are manufacturer coupons that do not have a “remit to” address on the coupon.
  • Are bottle caps.

Please note:
  • Competitor coupons are not matched.

  • We do not give cash back if the face value of a coupon is greater than the purchase value of the item.

  • A second cents-off coupon of the same type cannot be redeemed towards the purchase price of the first item.
  • If a Target BOGO coupon is used, one additional manufacturer coupon may be used on the first item.
  • If a Manufacturer BOGO coupon is used, one additional Target coupon may be used on the first item.

COUPON TYPES:

  • Manufacturer coupons are found in newspapers, magazines and even affixed to products.  The UPC on these coupons begins with a “5.”
Rite Aid Manufacturer Coupons

Buy One, Get One Free
  • Rite Aid accepts Buy One, Get One Free coupons, however only one coupon can be used for each pair of items purchased.  A customer can use one “cents off”  coupon (a coupon of fixed value such as $.50, $1.25, etc.) in conjunction with the item they are purchasing on a Buy One, Get One Free promotion (or with a Buy One, Get One Free coupon), although the value of the cents off coupon cannot exceed the selling price of the item.  Customers can use up to two coupons with a Buy One, Get One at a % off promotion, provided the total value of the coupons does not exceed the selling price of the two items combined.
    • Buy One, Get One Free coupons cannot be used in conjunction with a Buy One, Get One Free or with a Buy One, Get One at a % off promotion.
Total Purchase Coupons
  • Rite Aid may feature total purchase coupons, which discount the total purchase amount based upon meeting specific requirements.  For example, $5 off a $25 purchase price threshold coupon.
    • These coupons are accepted under the following conditions:
    • The coupon is valid and in date; only one total purchase coupon per transaction.
    • Total purchase equals or exceeds $25 before tax (before any coupons are applied).
    • Coupons for individual items can also be used including another "48" coupon that is tied to an item in the transaction.
    • Provided the total of items purchased is equal to or greater than the purchase requirement, other coupons can be used in conjunction with the total purchase coupon.
ACCEPTANCE GUIDELINES :
General Guidelines:
  • Coupons must be valid and in date; Coupons cannot be exchanged for cash.
    • Register will validate coupon through scanning or keyed entry of the coupon UPC number.  
    • In the event that any item’s selling price is less than the value of the coupon, Rite Aid will accept the coupon in exchange for the selling price of the item.  Coupon redemption can never exceed the selling price of an item and no cash back is allowed.
    • When making a return for a product that had a coupon attached, Rite Aid cannot refund cash for the value of the coupon and cannot return the coupon that was used.  
    • Rite Aid reserves the right to not accept any coupon where the validity or the coupon cannot be established.
Multiple Coupons
  • More than one coupon can be used on the purchase of a single item under the following conditions:
    • All coupons match the item being purchased.
    • The total of the coupons is equal to or less than the selling price of the item before sales tax.

No more than one “48” Rite Aid Valuable coupon, one “49” Rite Aid Manufacturer coupon, and one “5” Manufacturer coupon can be used on a single item.
