    Went to Super Store the other night trying to buy these B1G1 deals, however, the cashier got alert when she was entering all the coupons and she had to call the manager. Anyways, the manager didn't allow us to use any coupons on B1G1 items and gave us a VERY hard time. So....now I'm wondering what's the coupon limit for the cashier? Maybe I should just do small transactions instead?

    Depends on the cashier, some are $10 some are 10 coupons and more experienced cashiers may have overrides themselves

    At my RCSS store in Manitoba, the limit a cashier can do without calling a manager is one coupon per item. It always screws me up when I am stacking a store coupon and a manufacturer's coupon.

    At my RCSS here in North Van the till reaches a "maximum coupons" entered and the cashier has to get the front end manager to override. It just happened to me on the weekend, but thankfully I had put all my B1G1 free scrubbing bubbles and windex first. I guess the thing to do is ask what is your coupon max per transaction then they wouldn't have to call over the front end supervisor. I never asked lol. But I will next time.

    The limit for their computers to come off a transaction with no override is 9.99$. So either limit each transaction to less than 10$ in coupons, or tell your cashier ahead of time that you'll need an override. It's not for coupons specifically, just whenever anything is taken off the transaction over 10$.

    I'm glad you didn't let that stop you I hope that they were still nice to you, even if they find couponing annoying. It's not your fault they have an outdated limit - it's not like coupons are only for $0.25 or $0.50, so with just a few $4 Secret/Olay coupons (for example), you're over the limit.

    I have emailed Loblaws to suggest they raise the coupon limit, especially since there are so many high value coupons out, and initially they said they were considering it, but ultimately they did not At any Loblaws banner store I've been to (Zehrs and RCSS) once the coupons entered hits $10 an over ride is necessary. Surely $25 or even $50 would be more appropriate?

    I agree that the limit needs to raised at these stores. That's why I like going to WM and Zellers, as you can price match, and there is no overrides needed. Sometimes when I go to places like NF, I break my purchases into cpn values of under $10, then I don't need an override. I also go to one of the managers at NF that I personally know, and she just asks me for the total of my cpns, and just puts it in as one amount.
