Facts Manufactures coupons not doubling

My Meijer will double 2 coupons on the same item for 50 cents or less. I went today and bought - 4 Clorox bleach (.50 off of 2) -2 Clorox sprays (.50 off of 1) - 2 Clorox wipes (.50 off of 1) - All these were different coupons. Only the first 2 coupons she scanned doubled. I brought it to her attention and she just manually doubled the coupon, so no harm done. But what she explained to me is that the computers only identify that you bought Clorox items and you are using Clorox coupons - so it will only double the 1st 2 coupons. She also explained this happened last week with all the Betty Crocker sale items. So in short - Watch you coupons make sure they double if they are supposed to or you won't get that great deal that you thought you were getting!!!!!

That's weird because just yesterday I bought 2 Clorox wipes and 2 Clorox toilet gels and had no problem with all the coupons doubling. Must be just different computer systems...

Could very well be - since different regions have different coupons policies - obviously your meijer has their act together more so than the ones in my area!!! Glad to hear is not all locations!

Check the UPCs of the coupons - sometimes manufacturer's use a blanket code, but change the verbiage on the coupon to identify a specific product. Most notorious for doing this are Lysol and Aunt Millie's.

I checked the UPC codes - they are not the same! Would have been a good explanation though
