I am new to couponing
I know that coupons must be printed in color
I asked the cashier at my pharmaprix if they accept
printed coupons, she said no
Does anyone know which stores accept them in montreal
I am worried I will get a hard time
Thanks

My local stores all accept them, and I really haven't had a hard time. I have three "local" pharmaprix's (I live in Saint Lazare and go to the ones in Ile Perrot, St Lazare and Vaudreuil) and they have not really given me a hard time.
Printing in colour seems to help a lot. Don't know why, but it just is.
i do know that there is a faq on pharmaprix facebook page saying they accept printed coupons in every province and i have never had any problem with printed coupon colred or not
Here you go http://files.shoppersdrugmart.ca/fac...on_policy.pdf?
I've found that by carrying a printed copy of this policy with me, I can pull it out and ask for the manager if a cashier gives me a hard time (internet coupons, price adjustment). But I'm a lil' feisty that way, I refuse to have to spend more on gas looking for another Pharmaprix just because the closest one to me suddenly has a cashier who's unaware of the store policy.
I've used both color or black&white prints, just not 10 prints at a time !
Me, I don't have a color printer, my coupons are always b&w. Uniprix refused me definitely, Walmart want to see the web page to know from where the coupon was printed (I avoid to use a printed coupons at Walmart).
One tip: don't ask if they accept or not. Just try at the cash register, if they don't accept, you can leave the item:top:
Never had problems at IGA, Metro, SuperC, Provigo, Maxi, Loblaws, Pharmaprix. Some Jean Coutu refuse, others no :top:
Someone have to link to print the SDM policy in french, please ? :)
I've never used color printed coupons. The only place i had problems was at the Pharmaprix in Dorval a couple of months ago. They refused it (including a manager) because apparently someone had tried to fraud them the morning of the day i went. I've used printed black & white coupons almost everywhere except Metro. Don't waste your color ink.
Always try to print the whole page, so the cashier can see where you got the coupon from. I've never had trouble at Maxi, Metro, Loblaws and Walmart; not so lucky at Uniprix and Iga.
I agree with p4eli4k4, "Just try at the cash register, if they don't accept, you can leave the item."
Most of the local stores I go to in my area (South Shore) do NOT accept printed coupons at all ... and they make a HUGE fuss over them. When I first started using coupons I tried to use one I had printed at the Wal-Mart near my home and was not only refused but chewed out for being a 'scammer' ... because you know, apparently all the people who print coupons are scammers. Since then I only use actual coupons, but glad to hear that others are able to use their printed at other locations !! :)
Thanks for the responses
Tried to use a printed coupon at Super C Chemin Chambly as well as Loblaws on Rolland Therrien and BOTH refused my coupons.. They said that they had a meeting and was told to NOT accept printable any more..Quote:

i don't know about the other Super C on the West Island but the 1 where my dd works tooks printed coupons.The 3 Pharmapixs near me all take printed coupons
Ive never had a printed coupon refused (Vaudreuil area) and there is a super C, loblaws, iga, pharmaprix, JC... :)
If I were you I'd soooooo start getting my fingers busy.. email Super C, Loblaws AND definitely Surgele...what's the point of having the coupons on their website if you can't use them :rolleyes:Quote:

I had success with with printed coupons in B&W (don't own a colour printer!) every time, quite surprisingly: IGA, WM, Metro. They sometimes take them to the manager for confirmation. In WM, tthey even took that OB 2$ coupon that was sent last December and looked very crappy.
