Wow! I knew Rite Aid was one of the worst YMMV stores, but the amount of difference in each store's "policy" is mind boggling! Like other stores each mgr has the right to accept coupons as they see fit, the policy stated in my OP is their "official" corporate policy they sent when I requested it, which apparently is not officially followed in many stores.
