Im confused doubling and tripling of what if the total is before manufacturers coupons. Do u mean before the store doubles your coupons?

Im sorry if this sounds stupid.

Thanks!

Nothing sounds stupid...this is part of what takes the time to calculate your totals.....it makes it a little tricky....

The best I can try is a couple examples of what I believe they mean by this rule.

If I buy a Kraft BBQ for 89c and use a 75c coupon, my coupon will double making the sauce free, but only the manufacturer's portion of the coupon will count toward my total for the promo.

If I buy KNorr Sides on sale for 4/$5 and use (2) 75c/2 coupons. I will pay $2/4 sides, but since these coupons doubled as well, the total qualifying toward the promo will be $3.50 (the doubling portion of my coupons won't count, so the $5 purchase price minus the $1.50 of the coupon that was doubling).

I hope that makes sense and helps a little.
