In order for them to enforce the policy the cashier has to do something more than just scan the coupon. I don't know if there's just a button they have to hit or if they have to enter the entire coupon manually, but you're right if they just scan it there's no way for the register to know that it's an IP. The cashiers are *supposed* to do 'whatever' it is to keep the IP's from doubling/tripling, but like you said a lot of cashiers do not take the time to actually do whatever it is like they are supposed to.
