Clip this COUPON. How do you "CLIP" this coupon......??? HOW..??

[Sourdough]

I get advertisements in my e-mail. Most are from SAFEWAY Grocery. It will have ads that say, "Clip this COUPON".

How do you do that......???

I think you might have to clip them using a smart phone app.

I went through that with my grocer and a rewards program. Campbell's Chunky soup was on sale, 2 for $4, and 4 for $5 for program members. I punched in phone number at checkout to get my reward points, but didn't get the 4/$5 deal.

Assistant at checkout said I had to clip the coupon. I'm like "What??" You mean I have to print it and clip it, then bring to store? Are there store coupons in a brochure to clip??

Turns out I needed the app, or be logged-in to my account on PC and hit the "clip" button for it to be applied to my account and get the savings.

Clipping coupons ain't what it used to be.

You will have to create an account on the store's app. There is a section on the app for coupons. If it's one you want to use you will hit "clip"! If you shop in person at the store they will ask for your phone number at the register, your account will come up, the coupon (s) you clipped will be applied. If you do an online order the app or website will ask if you want to apply coupons, click or hit yes and the coupo(s) you "clipped" will be applied!

Yep...hit the clip button when signed into your account...then at store when checking out use your phone number on key pad or scan members card so anything digital is deducted while checking out...never done it on a phone...just a pc.

That's cool, I hate apps. Anything that can be done with an app, can be done without it - for the most part. And, if it can't be done without the app..... screw it, I ain't going there.

What a pain in the arse. Just give me the GD sale price. I don't have time for this BS. But the wife has learned how to play the grocery store game though.

here in my area they dont even send out weekly sale paper....they saving money..most people dont get a real newspaper any longer so its about pointless to do so...everyone uses phone or computer nowadays...it weird to me as well..but it is reason for it and i see why.

i yielded this month and paid my electric for first time via paperless....i am a dinosaur writing check for it each month...i gotta be honest..it was easier and faster and cheaper too.

It sure is a game. Not to mention that you're providing your shopping history to..... well, who knows who.

I prefer Fred Meyers (aka KROGER). You get a plastic card and when you checkout........if it is on sale you get the sale price on all things you bought, if they were on sale.

Another problem with SAFEWAY is they want my phone number at check-out. I politely ask, "WHICH ONE". I have at least three.

SAFEWAY also has a goofy thing that the end of every month they wipe any unused discounts away.
