I went to one register and my friend went to another one. The one I went to accepted the coupon. It wouldn't scan, but when the cashier typed the UPC code into the register it worked. The cashier my friend went to called a CSM and she said they couldn't accept it because it wasn't a manufacturer's coupon. I thought it was awfully weird because my friend and I had the same coupons, but yet one cashier could accept it and one could not? I went to the cashier that rung me up and told her about it and she thought it was weird. She was about to ring us up again, but the CSM came up and told her not to because they weren't suppose to accept those kinds of coupons. We went to Target afterwards and they took the coupons with no problem. Can you send me John's e-mail, I'd like to send him a message about what happened and tell him which store it was. Thanks.

I was buying (6) Louis RIch Chicken Strips and had (6) $1 Manufacturer coupons. The cashier told me that I could only use ONE of my coupons... I asked to speak with a CSM.... so she called over a CSM... The CSM agreed with the cashier... even after I explained that a "purchase" is each item that is scanned... At the bottom of receipts it reads the "# of items PURCHASED"... The CSM still refused... and was rather loud, arrogant and belittling about it..(which wasn't neccessary) I wasn't rude or loud or arrogant, etc.....I just had them cancel the transaction... AND...to top things off... as I was leaving the register, I heard the CSM start talking ABOUT ME to the CUSTOMERS that were behind me in line! (Seriously? Are ya kidding me? lol..... how immature and innappropriate) I went to my car, used my cell phone to call 1-800-WALMART and explained what had just happened... The Cust. Service Rep. that I spoke with told me to go back into the store and go to the Service Desk and that she would have the Store Manager meet me there... I complied... After reviewing my coupons and the items I was purchasing... the Store Manager agreed with ME. I was allowed to use all (6) of my coupons for my (6) purchases AND...because of the attitude/behaviors of the cashier & CSM, I was given a $20 Gift Card for my troubles... I no longer tolerate cashiers or CSM's refusing my coupons. It is NOT *MY* fault that they are not informed or trained properly... And as a consumer, I have every right to redeem coupons at Walmart....per their policy. (which I keep a printed copy of IN my coupon binder). And I've been a couponer for over 20 years, so I am well educated in how to properly redeem coupons. A smart consumer is one of their best shoppers! And the "higher ups" realize this.... Because more times than not, us couponers will buy multiples of an item, because of the savings we will get by using our coupons with those items... And Walmart gets reimbursed FACE VALUE of the coupons, regardless of the item-price... So they profit MORE from us consumers who buy in bulk. It doesn't matter to Walmart whether the cash comes directly from a consumer hands or from a coupon redemption center.... it's PROFIT either way! Some cashiers and/or CSM's seem to "take it personally" when we "smart" shoppers do our homework PRIOR to shopping and buy ONLY items on sale and/or items that we have coupons for ....and when we get to the register... have our "purchases" and coupons scanned... and then pay very little out-of-pocket.... the cashier (and/or CSM's) sometimes assume that we've done some type of criminal act or fear that THEY'VE done something wrong... and get snippy, tense, rude and/or accusatory.... Ahh - I will not tolerate that. And since I shop for my family of 5, my handicapped mother, my aging father in law and for donating to friends & other family... it's nothing for me to buy 50+ of the same item(s) at one time... using coupons. I save by MAXimizing my savings during sales & using coupons.... which prevents me from having to buy the items at full price later down the road. The way I see it.... "Bait & Switch" is 100% illegal..... They simply cannot BAIT customers into the store by advertising that they will accept coupons and/or price-match....then SWITCH the rules when we get to the register... ...therefore, they HAVE to accept my coupons as long as I am abiding by their coupon policy and the terms stated on the coupons and as long as the purchases I've made correspond with the coupons I am using....and as long as none of my coupons have expired. AND.....they should NEVER be rude to a customer....regardless! I am not ONLY a smart shopper.... I am a SMART woman... and will never allow a cashier or CSM to "change the rules" because of some random excuse/reason they "think up"... Part of my being a smart shopper is learning AHEAD OF TIME....the store policies related to coupon use... I own my own business and have to abide by state and federal rules/regulations... And so does Walmart and ALL of it's employees! So, it's wonderful that "John" is so customer-oriented....but he is only ONE man.. We can't possibly expect him to bear the ENTIRE burden of ALL of the coupon issues we come across while shopping at Walmart. We can assist him....be our own advocates.... Utilize your cell phones/home phones ... if you encounter an issue...and are confident that you are in the right....and/or you question whether or not a cashier/CSM is correct.... and/or the employees (at the store level) are giving you problems, being rude, etc.... Call 1-800-WALMART ... Have the "higher ups" assist you... and get you your discounts and/or whatever else you need. AND...inadvertantly.... By making that call... you could very well cause changes to be made at YOUR Walmart... Disciplinary action may be made (when needed)... If the employees have been misinformed by managerial level employees...and are only abiding by what they were taught... then it's NOT the cashiers fault... ya know what I mean? Perhaps the managerial level employees need an inservice meeting to properly inform them of particulars related to coupon policies/use/acceptance. I know that *MY* Walmart has a whole new respect for me and 90% of the cashiers enjoy watching how much I save... whereas there's still a handfull of cashiers/CSM's who are what I term as "Perma-cranky" - never smiling or happy no matter WHAT.... So I just avoid their lanes and let them steer their crankiness to others. They DON'T HAVE TO like me.... but as long as they are an employee at Walmart... and when I am a shopping customer at Walmart... they DO HAVE TO respect me while I am in that store. And I will not accept anything less. I think it's silly to dislike someone JUST because they are smart savers and use coupons! Especially when the dislike is coming from people who make just above minimum wage! ha! They should be asking me HOW to save .... instead of judging me BECAUSE I save ! lol (**Please ~ NO OFFENSE INTENDED by anything that I've said..... AND It is NOT at all my intent to insult those working for minimum wage or just above.... my point is that I would be more than willing to help teach people how to save....and I have.... on mannny occassions.)

She proceeded to hand the coupons back to me and scan the 2 items. I said I don't want those and she rolled her eyes and voided the items. I've always used coupons at this Wal-Mart with no problem. I called and spoke to a CSM when I got home and was told that they DO accept valid coupons and to make ANOTHER trip in to clear the matter up. NO THANKS........I'll shop somewhere else from now on.

Email would be good as then you'd have it in writing. OR, call/email the manufacturer of one of those coupons and get it in writing from them. Then KEEP that in your binder. It will help you more times than you know! And next time, you can go over the head of the 'manager' you spoke with. That was a customer service manager, but not a store manager. Not even an assistant manager. There are lots of people over them (they are one of the lowest on the 'manager' totem pole at Walmart) that can overrule them. Or even just ask for a different CSM as there usually are 2-3 on duty at once!

I went into Walmart in Lexington, SC on Sunset Blvd. I was purchasing the following 11 Reach dental floss that were on sale for 1.00 and I had 11 1.00 off manufacture coupons 7 Sure Mens Deodarants and I had 7 1.25 off manufacture coupons 11 A1 Sauce and 11 2.00 manufacture coupons 6 Bengays and 6.00 2.00 off manufacture coupons 6 Rubbermade bottles and 6 1.00 off manufacture coupons All coupons went through, however at the end of the transaction, the computer/cash register beeped error or something. So, cashier called manager to come help. Manager stated that I could only use 1 coupon per purchase. I explained yes that is what I understood. But, she was saying that a purchase meant the entire order. I explained that a purchase meant the item. That all of the purchases together made up the transaction. She would not relent. So, I told her to forget the whole thing and that I would like my coupons back. I was so mad! So, I have decided that we can do it her way, and that I am going to take my coupons back up there and get the items again, and have her ring each item up with the coupon, until I have all items I need at the savings that I am expecting. I am also going to take the Walmart Coupon Policy with me. If this is how they want to play, then I am happy to do it their way. They drive me crazy!!! Hi!

There are 2 stores in Norfolk, VA (Military Highway and Tidewater Drive) that do not honor any internet coupons of any kind--even the ones that would meet the policy posted online. I had been using internet coupons at the Tidewater location for a year or so, but recently they changed the store policy, according to the rep, due to issues with fraud. The Military Highway store stopped taking the Internet coupons about a year ago (which is why I stopped shopping there). I have contacted Walmart using their toll free number (no response) and the internet (just wrote the email today).

Twice now the cashier 'forgets' to run my regular $1.50 coupon. I looked on my way out and notice she had forgotten.....i go back to the cashier and she does apologize, and gives me back the coupon, but my options she tells me are #1. save the coupon and use next time (ARGHHH) or # 2. go stand in the 10 deep customer service line with a cart full of groceries!!!! both times i was told the only way to get my $$ was go stand in the long customer service line.

They will not honor any internet coupons. They were very nice about it. I asked why and was told it was company policy, because so many people were creating the coupons on the websites. I just went to Kroger; although sometime Walmart has the better price. I went to our Walmart In Campbellsville, KY. They will not honor any internet coupons. They were very nice about it.
