Manager told cashier to 'Quit being Cheap!'

[dutchmama]

They definately have gotten a new customer in me!! I never shopped there much before, as I found it a bit pricey compared to Wal-mart...and we don't buy alot of toys new, but since they've opened closer to me, I can really watch the sales, and make it worthwhile!

Great brag! Love the managers words. Where do the coupons for the games come from? My little one is just getting into board games this year.

The $5 off Hasbro coupons are from specially marked Orville Redenbacher boxes. They have some great kids games that with coupon end up being from $5-12 (most around the $10 mark). The popcorn in the box each give you a chance to win a bag of free O.R. already popped popcorn. I've won 4 bags from the 3 boxes of popcorn I've gotten! So it really is an awesome deal.

So far I've spent:

(2) Microwave popcorn: $3.50-$2coupon= $1.50 each ($3 total)
(1) Microwave popcorn: $3 on sale at walmart right now! ($3)
(3) Board Games: $5 price match-$5 coupons= FREE
(4) FPC's for Bagged popcorn=FREE

So all of that for $7.35

Amazing! I was at a Toys r us to get some monopoly's. First, the manager would only price match 2. Then when I gave her the coupons, she would not accept them with a price match. She insisted that the policy is either price match or coupon, but not both. I told her it doesn't make sense because they get the money back from the manufacturer, but she wouldn't budge She said that the coupon policy specifically states this. Since I don't normally shop there, I'm not familiar with their coupon policy. So I left all the games at the cash and headed over to Superstore with no problems.

Anyone hear the same thing about Toys r us coupon policy?

Awesome score on the games... and popcorn! You probably threw that poor cashier for a loop... but at least they had the sense to ask the manager! ...and if that manager is an SC'er... HI!

[Stretchthatdollar!]

That's s great! Hallelujah for a manager with a brain!

Hahah, amazing! If only all managers were like that.

Coupon is almost like cash for stores , so its not like they Are losing money.

They even get money for shipping and handling the cpns , so they are not losing even on that front.

In fact cpns are better than credit cards for stores.

For credit cards they have to pay around 2 % Transaction fees and commissions to Visa and Mastercard. For Amex its even higher , so lot of stores don't accept Amex.

If I had a store I would rather have people pay by cpns than CC or Debit to avoid the transaction fees
