We have permission from Target to list their printables. Good question! Keep submitting them!!

Is it ok for someone to say they found the coupon on a newspaper online and give instructions on how others can find it, too?

I believe that this is still ok to do.

Thanks for keep us honest.

I had no idea this was against any rules. You would think if a company put up a PDF, it would be considered a "legit" coupon until it expired. Thanks for clearing this up.

I believe the problem is with coupons that are found on the internet (like the recent cvs 5/15 and target 5/50) and are made into pdfs. I am pretty sure that we are no longer allowed to share pdfs of coupons that are found online. Mods - Please correct me if I am wrong

[lhart24]

If we can verify the source of the pdf as being a manufacturer's website.. they are ok.. if the source is an image webhosting site.. unfortunately the authencity can not be verified and those posts will be pulled!

however a pdf could be a doctored image (I am not accusing anyone here).. Just saying it is possible that you stumble across a coupon someone else doctored.. and unknowingly spread it.. .We ask that all pdf's be sent to admins/mods for approval... If not the post will more than likely be pulled until verification can be made....

The CVS coupons can not be shared at the request of corporate CVS. It is intended for the emailed card user only. They have asked that their coupons not be posted and shared on this site.. AFC kindly obliged to the request...

However, that lead to several posts with titles like the following .. If you have the CVS 5/15 please pm/email me... This too puts AFC in an awkward spot as we are to not promote the sharing of these coupons.. thus this new rule was put in place...

It however is not limited to just CVS coupons...

Just found this thread.....

So for clarification, since the post-it coupon came from the manufacturers website, it is legit.

3M has now taken it down from their site, but since it is a legit coupon, will it be staying on the list of printables?

Yes, it is a legit coupon, however, there is no way of knowing how long it will be staying on the Printables list.

Effective immediately, all threads that offer to share a coupon via a private message or email will be removed for your protection.

Thanks for understanding.
