Thanks to some wonderful readers on facebook, I now have read the Albertson’s Coupon policy. I thought some of you may want to have it to print as well to have it with you. I had to click on the customer service link and then there was a link to it under commenly asked questions. So if this link doesn’t work for you try that and see if it works to bring it up.
Here are a few points that stuck out to me:
Coupons stating “on next/future purchase or visit” cannot be used in the transaction in which they are generated. Next purchase is defined as a separate transaction.
Albertsons will accept ONE manufacturer coupon and ONE store coupon on the same qualifying item.
Albertsons does not accept competitor coupons. (Coupons generated by any competitor with competitor logo are considered competitor coupons.)
Coupons that exceed the retail value of an item will be adjusted to provide the maximum value, not exceeding the price of the item
Albertsons accepts internet generated manufacturer coupons that have the following conditions:
o Coupons must scan at checkout.
o Coupons must have serial numbers and follow an industry-standard format.
o Coupons must clearly indicate that they are a manufacturer coupon and have a valid manufacture address on the printed coupon.
Albertsons does not accept internet generated manufacturer coupons that have the following conditions:
o FREE product without a required purchase.
o A redemption value that exceeds $5.00.
o The absence of a clear and scannable UPC bar code.
o Same serial numbers (internet sites print time & date stamps on coupons and limit the number of coupons that can be printed from same computer).
o The absence of a valid manufacturer address on the printed coupon.Store Coupons
· Rain checks for store coupons will be given out as long as the store coupon does not state on it “while supplies last”. (YEAH!!)
· Twice the Value store coupons can only be used in combination with a $1.00 or less manufacturer coupon (a printed face value of $1.01 or greater cannot be combined with Twice the Value store coupons).
o Albertsons DOES allow manufacturer coupons that state they cannot be ‘doubled’ to be used in conjunction with a Twice the Value store coupon.(YEAH!!)
The Total Shopping Experience

I’m so glad I read this!!
By the way, I don’t see Ralphs here, but I bought 10 x $1 off coupons for laundry detergent because I was told by a Ralphs employee that “they double coupons everyday” only to find out that at check out (from a different person) that they “double up to a dollar” which means that $1 coupons are at face value only. Booooo. I still got a good deal but was still bummed.
