I did (I read it to her) and then she asked to see the coupon on the phone, this is when I got the corporate story. I go and buy a lot of stuff and never seen or heard this happened at these stores. She kept saying corporate, corporate and sorry.
The whole thing is stupid, I was standing in line looking at all the people in the buying frenzy and the sale wasn't even on yet and the place was packed with peoples baskets filled to the brim. I spent $65 on BS items and only got off $12 with the coupons. The other non coupon **** we buy at the same time should easily makes up for any coupons we use (in general).
The coupons are really bringing in a lot of customers to buy stuff and almost everyone is buying more items than just the coupon stuff but I can understand, they probably don't want to get caught up/stuck in coupon hell like JC Penny did.
