Becoming Coupon Savvy: "Redeem at" vs. "Redeem ONLY at"

"Redeem at" vs. "Redeem ONLY at"

If you read the fine print on your coupons you may see one of these phrases on there along with a store name.  I see this a lot with Walmart on it.

This can be confusing, but here is the difference...

"Redeem at"

• As long as the coupons states that it is a Manufacturer Coupon, you can redeem this at any store.  The trick is that it is up to the discretion of the store you go to.  Some stores may not accept it since it has another store's logo on it.  They will get their money back from the manufacturer, but they are not required to take it either.

"Redeem ONLY at"

• With this coupon, you can only use the coupon at the store it states on the coupon.  You cannot use it anywhere else.  Be sure to check and see if the coupon specifies at specific store location as well.

Hope this clears up some confusion on this issue.  :)
