Walmart officially released a new coupon policy yesterday!  There are a few changes that are pretty fun.  Please remember that this will take time for cashiers to learn, so it is best to print the policy and keep it with you if you are a regular Walmart shopper.

***To see the current Walmart deals go here.***

Two big changes:

  • You should now be able to use Walgreens Register Rewards (they are a “catalina” manufacturer coupon)!
  • “Coupons may exceed the price of the item. Change may be given or applied toward the cost of the basket purchase.”

One other thing to note:  They state that they accept competitor coupons that have an actual price for an item.  This is not a $1 off coupon, but a coupon that states that the item costs $1.  We get A LOT of coupons like this in the Walgreens weekly ad.  This is not technically new, just want you to understand what they mean.

  • Manufacturers’ coupons
  • Print-at-home internet coupons
