Digital coupons are a blessing, but they can be confusing since the policies change store-by-store.
Here are some quick questions that you can ask :
1. Can I use a paper coupon and a digital coupon on the same item? Many stores will let you use a manufacturer’s coupon and a store coupon on the same item, but the digital policies often differ.
2. If I buy 5 of the same item, will my digital coupon “take” 5 times or just once?
3. If the store doubles/triples paper coupons, will they also double/triple the digital ones?
4. Does your store honor digital coupons from a competitor?
After you get these answers, watch closely for expiration dates and before you head out on your shopping adventure make sure the coupons are live in your account. There is nothing worse then buying a cart full of an item only to find out during check out that the coupon had suddenly disappeared!
€¦ and remember, there’s no cents in paying full price! Ask the right questions and you can save money without clipping a single coupon from the paper!
