Internet coupons rrrant

[morningrose]

Today morning I went to Nofrills and owner said they aren't accepting $1 pepperidge farm crackers I took in.
OK I left them there thought I can purchase them in Freshco.
Went to SDM ,cashier said she wouldn't accept International Delight coffee creamer,had to buy it because my total would be less than $75 and my Friday coupon $20 off $75 won't work.
Went to Freshco they said there is a notice front door.
What happened all of sudden?
Totally upset ,this is in Oakville location.
Anyone faced same thing?

do you mean internet coupons that you print out? Or are these mailed to you?

If you are referring to coupons that you printed off at home from an Internet site or promo than I understand your annoyance. My stores stopped accepting printed coupon about a year ago so I stopped printing.

Really unfortunate since some printables are great coupons!

I know ,manufacturers are inclining towards giving print at home coupons and it is a loss to us who genuinely purchase right products and also try new products.

o.k. I see now, I actually have heard some members rant in sc about that.
That is the reason I dislike printing coupons using my ink because so many stores are questioning whether they are copies.
I see this as a trend that many stores will adopt to discourage us from using them.

I've never had a problem with printables. o_O Sucks that it must be your area.

just be prepared if it does come to your area. The war sure seems to be on when it comes to strangling the way couponers use their coupons.

No problems using them here - at either pharmacies or grocery stores. I also print in B&W greyscale when I can, as well.

Printables for some reason they always give you a weird look , like you are committing a fraud or something

I am in Oakville too and I stopped trying to use print at home coupons about a year ago, it's not worth the ink and paper for the hassle. It sucks because so many are going this route. I think Walmart still takes them, but I don't shop there.

Yes for me Nofrills ,Freshco and shoppers are nearby in same line,I shop more there.For Walmart or Superstore I rarely go since they are bit far from these.
I printed many coupons yesterday which were wasted.

Yes ,I have been asked, Are they home printed coupons?We don't accept them .grrrr!

It's because of the unethical couponers. I unfortunately know one of those people. Sad.

I really can't blame the stores. In my area there are a lot of couponers known to photocopy the printables or photoshop them. So far, all I need to do is point out that each one has a different PIN, it has been ok, but they still question it.
