Hello Safeway shoppers! As promised I said I’d figure out what was going on with Safeway. They’ve had a big change on their web site and their coupon policy, which was just updated. I always suggest printing off the policy and keeping it with you wherever you keep your coupons in case your savings are ever in question.
The policy in a nutshell:
1) You cannot use two coupons on a buy 1 get 1 FREE sale (you can in most all other stores that I am aware of) means no coupon can be applied against a free item.
2) The value of the coupon may be adjusted down if it is higher than the price of the item you are purchasing (Target has the same policy)
3) No more stacking a manufacturer e-coupon with a paper manufacturer coupon. Now only 1 manufacturer coupon may be used. You can still however stack a Safeway store coupon with a manufacturer coupon (you can do the same at Target as well)
For more information on the policy click the link above.
For those of you seeking the Safeway Thanksgiving coupon book…. I just hit Safeway again tonight in hopes to mail some to friends and they were out. I was able to find some in Easton, Maryland and some at the Kent Island, Maryland store but the Kent Island store is now out of books. The store manager assured me that more have been ordered and he expects them anytime between now and Thanksgiving.
