The coupon says it’s for Walmart. Will Winco still take it?
I had the same question! Will Winco take Walmart coupons? I know Walmart won’t take other store’s coupons…
Thanks
Our Mcminnville Winco wouldn’t take my coupons…didn’t have time to push the issue!
Yes, Winco should take this coupon, since it’s a manufacturer coupon and not a store coupon. (Winco’s coupon policy states that they will not accept competitors’ coupons; i.e., Target’s own printable coupons, Walgreens’ monthy coupon book coupons, Rite Aid’s in-ad coupons, etc.) The fact that it says “Redeemable at Walmart” doesn’t make it a Walmart coupon. Walmart has simply paid coupons.com to place their logo on it for advertising purposes. (And, yes, I’m certain Walmart knows that more people will redeem these types of coupons at their own stores, versus a competitor’s, simply because they might not know any different.) The reason Winco does’t accept competititors’ coupons is that they have no way if redeeming them, but as long as a coupon is a real manufacturer coupon (with a redemption address on it) and doesn’t state something like “Redeemable ONLY at X” (which means the manufacturer has worked out a deal with that particular retailer), you’re good to go.
I agree with you 100%, yet I had a cashier somewhere a couple months ago refuse one of these “Walmart” cpns (I think it was Target). If stores are truly losing money on couponers, and maybe they are with all the doublers, TTVs and roundup promotions, then maybe they should rethink their marketing strategy. Obviously they offer these things because of all the local competition and to try to get us to buy things that are highly marked up. My mother lives in South Fla, where Publix dominates–prices are high and there are never any doubles.
They always tell me no on any coupon with another retailers name on it.
One in Vancouver would not take it
albertsons is the same way. The manager states “we lose money” He states all stores that take coupons even if its a manufacture’s coupon lose money. They flat out refuse.
My Winco in Tacoma will not take it because it says “redeemable at Walmart”. If it names another store they refuse them. It’s unfortunate!
All of the above comments sound like examples of poorly-informed cashiers and managers. Personally, I would push back (nicely, of course!;)), because in the long run, if you’re frequenting their stores, THEIR ignorance is costing YOU money. Start with the manager, and if you don’t have any luck there, call the corporate office and explain the difference. (Heck, print out my explanation if you think it would help.) Managers need to know the difference; it’s part of their job to understand the coupon policy they are enforcing, not make sweeping false assumptions.
WinCo in Longview took all 4 of mine.
One of the Winco’s in Vancouver didn’t take the coupon tonight because if what it says. I explained to her that it was a manufacturer’s coupon, etc. The cashier explained it had to do with “coding” and that they wouldn’t get reimbursed for it because it had Walmart in the bottom right corner. It was frustrating.
