Is the Total Before or After Coupons?

[Tiger Campbell]

I just received a "Get 8000 points wus $30." I have $15 in manufaturer's coupons. If I use the $15 coupon + spend $15 cash, do I still get the 8,000 points?

if you can get the cashier to scan it then i think you will. i would get them to scan before showing your coupons. i have done this with the pharmacy pager coupon and it worked. That being said who really knows for sure what is going to work or not with these offers. Good luck and keep us posted.

As long as your coupons are not FPCs, BOGO, or Shoppers coupons, then as long as your total is $30 before coupons you should receive the points (this is in fact in their coupon policy).
The total of $30 is based on the base points - your base points are not affected by $$ off coupons. So as long as you have 300 base points, you should receive your bonus points.

Like scouponer said though, it is completely up to the cashier to scan the coupon. Many will refuse to if your total dollar amount drops below that stated on the coupon - this is simply because they are not taught their own policy.
So definitely have them scan the personal offer coupon before your other coupons - that way it's up to the system to decide if you get the points, and not them.

The stores I use is total after coupons. When you read everyone's experiences it seems to be either regional, store or cashier choice.

Its store to store because each and every SDM location is individual owned so its really hard to say. I have been allowed deals like this, then the next time I went in, I was not... same store and all! Sometime it really depends on the cashier as well!

The only time it should matter is if the cashier has to scan the coupon - because then it's up to them to actually do it. Again though, it's in their policy that $$ off coupons DO count towards the promotion total - with the exception of Shoppers coupons, which change the actual price of the product and reduce the base points (same with FPC and BOGO - these are entered under a different code because you don't earn any base points on the product and don't pay taxes on the free product).

Any time it's a regular promotion advertised through their flyers, it's automatically in their system. So it doesn't matter what the cashier says, as long as your base points meet the minimum requirement.

Usually with 20x,10x or 15x points...cashier need to scan the coupon because those coupons does not have special promo codes but 4000 points,8000 points or 10,000 points always have the special promo code which cashier has to enter manually.
I always give cashier the points coupon before the manufacturer coupon and always tell cashier coupons are counted towards promo and if I don't get points don't worry I will call Sdm ho.And this always help me!!!and always get the points.
