Coupon Knowledge is Shopping Power

I went to Canadian Tire today to use my scratch card and my coupon on tide... Well, I bought 1 tide (the only on left on the shelf) and 2 comet at $1.00 each , the cashier scratch my card and I got a $5.00 redemption, I then handed her my coupon she said " you cannot use a coupon along with the scratch card which is a coupon, I told her its not a coupon, its an offer from your company.. I then pointer her to read the back of the card which states to cashier: Transactions must be $5.00 or more, process all other coupons with a 198 code number, enter discount code amount of $5.00, She still wasnt sure, so she went to the manager... Well, I was right and she was not informed.....
My DH was so proud of me he said, "they dont know that you read every fine print...
1 tide= $6.49
2X comet $1.00, total was $9.59, coupon from tide $2.00, $5.00 from scratch card, $.45 CT money, my total was $2.16

OMG, amazing, good job!!! I didn't make 1 purchase at Canadian Tire but managed to get 23 M&M Meats coupons, so happy!!!

I had a cashier tell me today that I couldn't use my $5 off any Air Wick FreshMatic starter kit coupon because they were on sale for $6.49. The coupon says "not to be used with any other promotion or discount". I tried telling her that the rule didn't apply to sales and she didn't believe me. Sadly I didn't have time to argue and ask for a CSM.

That's a great story!

How did you get that many M&M meats coupons?

Yes I am wondering about the M and M coupons too.. From what I understand you have to buy somethg scratch your card in front of cashier and they give you coupon for m and m meats. HOw did u get 23? Did you line up and buy stuff 23 times?? Please explain, so we know how this works for future uses thks

I believe those Canadian Tire cards say no purchase necessary.

that is right. i was on a trip and went to a few srores wtih dh and got 8 ticketd, only 1-$5 ct and 7- $5 m&m

good for you!

You are so right to read the fine print, I'm practising that myself also. Nice job!

In my building the card came in the flyer pkg in the mail ( CT, No frills & Rexall) on wednesday and its seems like most people throw them in the recycle bin, so my son and I took them out/

I got 22x $5M&M coupon and 13x $5off canadian tire purchase

that is awesome....wtg...:-)
