ALERT! 

 Walmart has just come out with a new coupon policy!!!!  This is BIG NEWS and I’m super excited about it!  I think this is a HUGE improvement!  I’m most excited over the coupon acceptance policy that now completely approves and accepts COUPON OVERAGE!  This is big!  I have always received overage at my local Walmart but many other reader have not been.  Now you will!!!  There is also another line about accepting competitors coupons and catalina coupons from competitors stores!!! Can you believe it!  Click here to read the new policy and I urge you to print it out and keep it with you when  you shop at Walmart.  Walmart is not known for explaining things or keeping cashiers and managers involved so you may possible run into cashiers that don’t even know there is a new coupon policy!  Beth just had a chat with management last week at her local Walmart.

Here is a cut and paste from the site! (Amy you said your Walmart won’t give your overage – well now they have to!!! Yes!)
