You don’t want to sound like a couponing noob, do you? Of course not! Like anything else, learning some basic couponing terms.
A store coupon is only good at the particular store. The stores create these to get more customers in the door. Most times, they cannot be redeemed at a different establishment.
On the other hand, a manufacturer coupon is created by the product’s manufacturer and can be used at several stores. However, not all stores will accept this type of coupon.
Coupon stacking is when a store will let you use both their store coupon and a manufacturer’s coupon at the same time.
A coupon policy lays out what coupons a store will accept and how you can use them. Some limit you to one type of coupon, and others let you “stack.”
A price match policy is when a store will match the advertised price of the same product at a different store.
How can that be? You might ask. When a product goes on sale, you might have a coupon worth more than the product.
