I'm new to this program. I have a quick question. I have a personalized offer of 10x if you spend over $30 in store. Is this before or after coupons? I've read that coupons can be used to deduct the oop however, I tried to buy $30 worth of items and had $20 worth of coupons and the cashier said I couldn't because the screen after all coupons, my subtotal was only $8.xx. Can someone confirm this for me? TIA!

The general rule for this is if the cashier has to accept/input the coupon you need to be at the dollar amount (in your case $30) AFTER coupons. However, if it is an automatic promo (for example, 20X WUS $50 or 18,500 points WUS $75), then you can use manufacturer's coupons to bring your total down. However, shoppers personalized coupons and FPCs are input into the system differently so you have to count those into your pre-coupon total. I hope that makes sense!

So I guess it just depends on the cashier if they want to input it in or not. I believe I read somewhere that it is before coupons as coupons are used as a form of tender. I think it was in Mrs. January blog site. Which is why I proceeded to buy $30 of items before coupons...

Quick question. If you have a personalized coupon that says for example Pay .49 for Campbell's soup. Is that where you can get multiples for that same amount? I got screwed up the other day and thought it was the $2 off coupon that would go in multiple times but then the amount only came off one item. Unless they changed it. I went and bought a Any tide for 4.99 and then wished I would've had 2 at the til to see if I would get both at the 4.99! But now I have to wait until next time to see unless anyone knows the answer thanks

I have a personalized coupon for 4000 pts when you spend $20 in food and drinks and a coupon for pay $3.99 for milk and $1.00 off crackers. Can I use them all in the same transaction?? I want to take advantage of the 20x pts event this Saturday. My first time doing any optimum pts events

Does the 4000pts one appear immediately or at a later date? If it's later, they never appear for me when I use it on a 20x day. But if it's one of their immediate ones, then it always works for me.

The ones that appear right away work for me too - the variable is whether or not the cashier will accept it. Your $3.99 and $1.00 off coupons will be no issue (just remember they change the actual price of the product and DO NOT count towards promos), but some cashiers will not enter the points coupons because they do say not to be combined with any Optimum promo.

I shopped yesterday - movie promo - at $75 level .... also had a mailed coupon for "get 18500 pts when you spend $75" - pts awarded mid april or so .... No problem with both of these (at least the coupon code scanned and there didn't seem to be any issue).
However I also had a personalized (mailed) coupon for 20x pt WUB any 1L or more milk product .... I bought 3 - the coupon code shows on the receipt (purchase price $15 in total) ... but the points weren't awarded - or if they are they are 170pts which I would guess is for some other random product ... I was kind of expecting around 3000 pts and they definitely don't show.
The other 20x coupons that I received don't indicate that they are credited later. Any ideas? Is it just they won't combine the various offers? Thanks for any insight

I phoned them today (I've never received emailed coupons and I've signed up/updated etc at least 5 times - they had some weird excuse that it was being blocked by the server ? and is supposedly fixed now - we'll see).... but on the 20x points for the milk - he said it was because I used the other points coupon 18500 WUS $75 and so the 20x didn't work for the milk ... apparently the system won't allow both (I'm wondering if it was the order the cashier used them though as she scanned the 18500 coupon first and then it looks like the 20x for the milk was scanned afterwards ....) Oh well - worth a try Just hope the 18500 goes through though as it now makes me wonder....

I haven't redeemed the maximum amount of points in years. Is the upcoming $200 off for 95 000 points on Apr 12/13 the best offer or will they still have a mega bonus redemption for $210/$220 later this year that I should hold out for?
