Can someone explain the what is stackable at LD

I haven't been to LD for sometime due to their price matching policy, but today I decide to go pick up some items for my stockpile today. I was in a rush and didn't really catch what the cashier was saying. She said the manufacture is really strict now on stacking coupon. She said we can't stack any coupon that said "can't be combine with any other offers or coupon" and the usual P&G. I'm I getting this right? :icon_scratch:I believe almost the coupons said can't be combine with any other offers. Does that mean the gravy train had left the station:bawling:.

which LD were you at

I was at the LD on 51 Avenue today and was told at Customer Service that they will no longer stack any coupons that says "not to be used in conjunction with any other offer". I tried stacking the Finish coupons.

I've been stacking at my usually places... Jasper gate, WEM, Oliver square. Chatted with some managers and they have a said Nestlé coupons will soon have "cannot be combined with any other coupon offer and promotion" something along the line of coupon offer. And also, they will soon start to not accept coupons that say "promotional offers". The manager at WEM was showing me the emails they get from the companies and I was skimming through it. But right now, if it says "any other offer" "limit one per purchase" that's all still fine since 99% of all coupons say that. I haven't had any trouble stacking

Their price matching policy is stated 1 product per price match but most LD gives us 4 Max, but really it's up to the manager of the store. But based on their policy it is just 1 price match.

Yeah, I heard something similar today at north gate LD. They did let me stack finish today, however usually the same lady just do it with out hesitation, but today she had to call manager to make sure it was still okay. She said there were some new instructions on what they can and cannot stack with. The manager said they no long accept scrubbing bubble stacks. They just got the notice to stop accepting them :(. And I just stacked the scabbing bubble couple days ago at the same location. Must be something really new :(. Hopefully nothing too drastic is coming down ! I was going to ask in more detail, but it was getting busy after I was done paying for my stuff.

wow

I am wondering why they have not placed these same restrictions on people in the US as I was there end of October and I can stack pampers down there as well as all other P&G products so I am curious as to why they are hitting us Canadians so hard, just curious. My parents have property in California and my mom can stack coupons there they do have some like our in cuisine ones that say not stackable and cannot be double but that is about the only restriction I have seen on them. Hopefully we don't loose the ability to stack everything.

I was at 51Ave LD. It's getting very hard to stack now with so many restrictions. Every time I went the policy changed. It's very frustrating.

It's Getting Harder To Stack Because People Are Still Abusing It.

Try Stacking At SOF, I Get Treated So Well There.

Personally I Got To CS, Tell Them I Am There To Stack, I Then Show Her Examples And They Appoint Me To A Cashier Thats Thats Trained The Best.

I am really particular to which cashiers and managers on as to when I will shop at which stores now. Once you find people that are coupon friendly and you make a bond with them its so much easier. But who works for me well might not work for others...its all about who trusts who because of the amount of people abusing couponing. Sad but true

I can stack Finish at Save On Foods and I've seen people stack Scrubbing Bubbles there, both of which LD is starting to refuse, which, contrary to their actual coupon policy they are allowed to do because if they aren't going to be reimbursed by the manufacturer then why would they take the coupons.
The downside to stacking at SOF is that you can't price match and you can't go over the product amount, so instead of doing $7 stacks for the $6.99 Finish, you can only stack $6, unless you have some coupons that aren't for full dollar amounts. They do however have a different selection of things that LD doesn't - I've been stacking Van Houtte coffee and paying $0.34 at it a SOF where LD only carries the K-cups and not the coffee beans.

I didn't know if you could stack the coffee at Sof maybe I should try tomorrow.

You Can Stack ANYTHING At SOF

Interesting. If SOF will "stack anything", does that mean that they are not too worried about being reimbursed by the coupon companies? What about the 'non-stackable' P&G, and S.C. Johnson products?

P&G is an American company that was founded in 1837, and then expanded into Canada in 1915. S.C. Johnson, also an American company, was founded in 1886, and then branched into Canada in 1920, U.S. couponing rules are different from Canadian rules, for many reasons. Consider their coupon 'price points' for example. Not too often will you find a coupon valued at $2. They also have a weaker economy than we do. Just some things to think about.

It's hit and miss at both SOF and LD these days, depending on the location and the cashier. Frustrating, I know! Especially if you can stack one day and the next you can't. Typically, nobody will accept the coupons with the restrictive wording (P&Gs, "not combined with any other coupon offer", etc.) unless it's a cashier that doesn't know better. (It's pretty clear that these coupons shouldn't be stacked.) Other than that, I've had good experiences and I've been turned down for silly reasons on different occasions at both stores lately, so it's not really hard and fast what's going to happen when you go in!

But I thought you couldn't stack at SOF if it says "cannot be combined with any other offer"? So how can you stack finish and scrubbing bubbles, cause don't they have that wording on there?? Is it just luck, or a particular store that will accept these?

Okay, so far:
-No Quantum or Scrubbing Bubbles (even though they havent changed the wording)
- No coupons that say cannot be combined with other coupon
- No internet coupons over 3$

These are the official things that are on memos... that I've gotten out of them anyways....

Stacking is in chaos...that's all I know. Take your chances. I've started asking first at customer service so not to find issues after pulling all the products off the shelf. Stacked at SOF only to find the products $ after stacking on a sale was the everyday price at RCSS.

It is so sad to see LD put so many restrictions on stacking. When I first start stacking about 1 year ago I was able to offer help to many families and friends. Now I find it such a hassle to stack that I haven't been able to help other much. I have to tell them I can't get what they need anymore, because it cost too much. So sad;(.

Want to try this out but I'm iffy on whether or not its worth the effort

I think it should be us reading policies and using coupons properly. In the end if there is abuse or you get "lucky" because the cashier doesn't know any better, the rules will end up changing to compensate for those errors. Coupon responsibly!

SOF wouldn't take my Von hautte stack :( oh well, I didn't think they would. Thought I'd try..

Why not? Any reason?

if you go on the LD FB page someone asked what the heck is going on with couponing and someone else posted after they contacted Headoffice... nothing has really changed as far as I can see... I am not impressed

"Cannot be combined with any other offer"

I emailed LD HO about 2 days ago. They confirmed scrubbing bubbles and finish are not stackable. SC Johnson coupons are not to be used on sale or pricematched items. You can still price match from a club card store provided they do not charge a membership fee. Not much else from that has changed. Although in the days since I had emailed them I have read threads on here about people not being able to stack dove or aveeno. Not sure if that is a true policy change or not, or just the cashier misinterpreting the coupon.

I hope that's not true as Rika needs to get some Dove yet!!

With what I have read it looks like dove can be stacked but not with a sale or pricematch. I could be wrong, but I believe they say not to be combined with any other offer. I rearranged my stacks to make them work with regular price. Can anyone verify this? Also, if someone could verify the aveeno? I have one stack left to use..

They really need to update their online coupon policy. I would definitely appreciate a clear and concise policy after all these changes that I could read instead of having to sift through 10 different memos while at LD.
