the fantaSTACK thread

[mcon]

like i said before, i read/saw that on facebook save-on-foods said they dont care about the wording on coupons, as long as the barcodes are different.

doesnt that mean that ANY and ALL coupons are stackable as long as different barcodes?

[hijinx25]

Yup, but it's also to the discretion of the store to follow this coupon policy. I have heard (have not experienced, though) that the Ironwood location was not stacking. So I went one day after work and some of the cashiers knew about the policy, and others didn't. Even the assistant manager wasn't "comfortable" with the policy and unsure and wanted me to come back during the day.

In the end, a cashier vouched for me and that my stacks were correct and the transaction proceeded. My store in Surrey (Nordel - is AWESOME if you go to Carla or Joanne - the others are good, just slower and less sure, but they will do it). I went to SOF in Delta on Scott Road and even though she took my stack (one on Advil - my son had a fever and I was going to buy it regardless, LOL), she read it slo.o.o.o.o.wly and looked around for another cashier's validation. When CS said to her, take anything and everything, she shrugged and said OK!

Now, my store in Delta, won't do overage. So if your stack is $6 and the product is $5.99, you need to be buying something else (unless the product is taxable). This is different than what is stated in the policy. I assume the manager at my SOF doesn't want to deal with large amounts of overages, but who knows?

Leigh-Anne - have you reported her to the stores ? Sounds like you've run across her several times.....

Most definitley I have, and have told other grocery store chains also.

I don't think we can stack two bogos or more together. $off coupons with a bogo yes, because you are applying the $off to the product you are paying for. Does that make sense.

I have a wack of Wheatabix coupons from the different inserts looking for trades.PM me please!!!!

[ishyx0x]

that sucks i would never photocopy.. lolz too scared to
since every coupon has a 'no reprouction with a fine up to like $1000+ or sumthing"

does anyone even get caught ?
and how ? does the store report the person ?
do they get jail for that???

emm.. makes me wonder..

Unfortunately this doesn't surprise me, there is a woman who goes around to several walmarts, and other stores in the Surrey, Langley,Whiterock, and Abby areas. She photocopies, and photoshops coupons ALL the time. Even gets creative with the types of paper used. I've created a binder at work based on her fraudulent coupons. The stories I could tell about this one. OH MY!!! I have a description of this person, approx 5'3ish, blonde below shoulder hair, fair skinned, around early to late 50's, and rarely smiles. She has an excuse or a line for every fake coupon she tries to present, her dumb-assery doesn't get past my team. If anyone sees her, alert any member of management in the store. One couponer on a facebook group I belong to, has seen her, and refers to the way she looks as Ratchet Face from the movie Cry Baby with Johnny Depp. She needs to be stopped. She no longer frequents my store.

My 5 yo just cried out - "Mommy, who's that scary lady!!! Turn it off!!!"

LOL

Scary indeed! More than you know!

[PurpleBunny89]

So I started to go through this thread making a list of stacks I have and I think I'd be here all night to be quite honest.

My TL is so extensive and I have a ridiculously insane number of coupons in variety and quantity. And I always get a large number of inserts.

If someone is looking for specific stacks they can PM me and ask or they can check my TL link below

I used to stack a ton with P & G however have not stacked since rules changed so needless to say I am sooo excited about this thread!!! So is stacking P&G Being allowed at save on foods? Any tips on these new rules is so much appreciated I cant wait to get back into couponing!!!!

[couponandoff]

As long as the UPCs are different, any coupon from any source is currently stackable at SOF Don't go overboard on quantities - If you limit yourself to a maximum of 6 same items (ie: 6 shampoo, 6 window cleaner & 6 yogurt) you'll be welcomed at the till! If you can divide a big shop into a few smaller ones, you're less likely to fluster a cashier.

[JaxtensMommy]

NOOOO WAYYYY...... I feel like I want to cry and happy dance all at the same time!!!!!...After a entire year without couponing my stash is starting to dwindle.. I am 100% ok with just doing small amounts!!!! Officially stalking this thread :D

[hijinx25]

Check the limits with your store. My store is limiting to 4 of the same item unless you special order in a large quantity. And become friends with a cashier!
