I was just at the Springville Walmart, and she said that they are no longer accepting printable coupons, and I asked for the manager and she said that it is all Walmarts, not just Springville, but some cashiers don't know it, and will still take them.  I called Walmart corporate, and they said that this is something that you have to discuss with your local Walmart management.     Has anyone else heard anything recently?

Got an email from Walmart Corporate which gives a bit more detail on what they will accept for internet coupons:

Wal-Mart Stores can accept coupons that are available on the internet
 for customers to print from their home computers.  The following are
 guidelines for the stores for accepting internet coupons:

- The coupon should be legible and say "Manufacturer Coupon".  There
 should be a valid remit address for the manufacturer, to ensure the
 coupon can be processed for payment.
- The coupon should have a scan-able bar code.
- The coupon should have an expiration date.
- The coupon cannot be a photocopy.
- The limit is one coupon per item, per Customer.
- A Salaried Manager can refuse to accept a coupon if it does not meet
 any or all of these guidelines.

Thank you,
Customer Relations

I thought it was helpful.   

What do you mean by "coupon matching policy"?  If you are referring to them taking other "store coupons" such as a Albertson or Walgreens coupon, I don't think they do, but they will match the ad price, as long as it isn't a Buy 1 Get 1 free, or involves instant rebates (such as buy 20 items, get 5.00 off instantly). 

Really, it varies from Walmart to Walmart.  Some Walmarts such as the Springville Walmart, won't even take printable coupons, even though corporate says that they should.

I have found with Walmart, that it really varies from store to store.  Hope this is helpful.   

I was in the AF Walmart tonight.  I purchased a item that I had them price match for a Macey's sale price.  At the end of the transaction I gave the cashier a manufacturer's coupon for that item.  She told me that she couldn't use the coupon because Walmart's new coupon policy, as of two days ago, was to no longer accept a price match and a manufacturer's coupon for the same item, that it can only be the price match or the manufacturer's coupon, but not both.  I said that it didn't make sense because Walmart gets reimbursed for the coupon and that people will just go get the deal at the original store that had the sale.  I asked to speak to the CSM to make sure that it was indeed the case and the CSM said the same thing and that the cashiers can get a "pink slip" or something like that written up if they take a coupon for a price matched item.  Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone has had this problem yet or if this is just AF or all Walmart stores?  Does anyone know?

When they say Pharmacy (Advertising and Promotional) coupons, what exactly does that mean?  Will they honor the Riteaid 25 gift card coupon I have if I transfer a prescription there?  That would be nice since I keep getting those coupons and have no more I can transfer there.

When did you use the Rite-Aid coupon there? I dropped off a transfer Friday and they said they do NOT take them anymore. This was the Walmart in A.F. 
Thanks!
