I just received an email from Jewel corporate offices regarding the use of coupons and rainchecks.

The Jewel Corporate policy states the following:

*Valid coupons are accepted if the customer has purchased the necessary merchandise.
*Coupons must be redeemed at the time of purchase of the specific product. Coupons may not be redeemed after the transaction has completed.
*Expired coupons are not accepted.
*Coupons cannot be converted to cash under any circumstances.

We do accept competitor coupons as long the requirements are met that are stated on the coupon.

Jewel DOES NOT accept internet coupons containing the following conditions:

a. ‘Free’ product offers that do not require a purchase
b. Redemption value exceeds $5.00
c. Absence of UPC bar code

We do not double coupons at this time.

Our Rain Check Policy simply reads effective on 3/18/2008.

If for any reason, we run out of an advertised sale item, we will be happy to offer you a rain check. Please contact an associate for assistance.

Please note: Rain Checks do have a 30 days expiration date.
Please note: Rain Checks can not be issued for advertised item(s) that our ad specified: "While Supplies Last".

Again, thank you for contacting Jewel Customer Care. If we can provide any information or be of service to you in the future, please do not hesitate to contact us by e-mail or by calling 1-877-932-7948.
