but i just haven't bothered trying again.

I've never had a problem - even when I have multiples

never ,never had a problem at any store with these coupons

They won't accept them in Saint John.

I remember trying once, and they said it had to say "internet coupon" on the coupon. This was New Minas.

Sobeys in fall river says the coupon must state "manufacture internet coupon" if not they reject on the grounds that it could be a photocopy. Hope this hepls.

Never had a problem at Sobeys with anything. Used a Pinty's coupon that I printed last week.

I haven't used them for about a year after being told they did not accept internet c's. No issue with the tear pad c's.

I only ever had a problem with the Sobeys in Halifax (WestEnd Mall). The other Sobeys in HRM accept them from me.

I find they have too be printed perfectly, color, and have the bar code on them

Never had a problem. I usually try to go through the same cashier if she's on. She gets excited when I save money, so I really like her.

I always have bad luck getting printed coupons accepted, so for the most part I ignore them unless it's for something I really need, then I will give it a try.

I am in New Glasgow (home of Sobeys, haha) and used to have a problem, but recently they started accepting them again. For a while they wouldn't even accept websaver/save.ca mail-outs! They must have had a problem redeeming them or something. Their policy on printable coupons (just used some today actually, from Smart Source - two x $3.50 off Kraft Habanero cheese) is (according to the front end manager today):

-clear and legible
-not to exceed $5
-no free product coupon printables
