I have a buy two get one peelie coupon from some items I bought a while back.  I have two questions about it.  One do I use one coupon for every TWO items or for every THREE?  And my second question, how strict are they when it says on the peelie that it must be removed by the cashier?  I bought the box the coupon came on, can't I use it NOW when I didn't use it THEN?

I always take my peelies off.  If I don't I usually forget about them and many cashiers won't see them.  I've never had a problem redeeming them that way.  You should be able to use it on your next visit and I would think since it's a buy 2 get 1 free, you would use one for the three products.  HTH

 Undecided I'm confused on something then.  I understand that on a buy one get one free coupon you can use two coupons on two items.  So, why when you have a buy two get one free coupon don't you use only one coupon for two items?

I thought you meant how many of the buy 2 get 1 free coupons did you need.   Cheesy  I think most stores would let you use at least two coupons for the ones you bought, but for the free one they'll probably count the buy 2 get 1 free peelie (for a total of 3 coupons).  Does that make sense?

You can always try using a coupon for each item.  The coupon won't ring up if the other coupon counted.  But it is my understanding from an earlier post that it depends on how they ring it up.  If they ring the free on up as an item even when it shows up as free then I believe you can use a coupon.  I could be wrong, but it is worth the try.  Either it will work, the cashier won't do it or it won't scan at all.

Ok - If I understand what you are asking -

You would have to use ONE coupon for every THREE products - because the coupon requires the purchase of 3 items for the coupon to scan and then they manually take off the full price of the third bottle.

If you want to make it harder - let's say the product is on a B1G1FREE sale and you have a B2G1FREE coupon...... = B2G3FREE

EXAMPLE:

Buy 5 products:

B2G1FREE coupon = Buy 2 - Get One FREE, but you would also get Two FREE from the store, because you get one free for every one you buy.

Does this make sense?
       

Oh - my brain hurts Tongue
