For those of you who don't know, Kmart has a Double Coupon Event a few times a year. This week is the first week it has been offered for 2010. During this event, Kmart will double any coupon up to $2.00. There have been a lot of changes this year basically making he process harder and maybe even not worth the hassle. The biggest change is that you MUST have the Kmart Rewards Card to participate in the doubles. The promotion is kind of like a perk for being a card member. This is a loyalty card, not a credit card. You can visit the service desk to receive one. If you apply online it may take 72 hours to process. Here are some things to remember:
1. Only 5 Manufacturer coupons will be doubled each day (this is monitored with the card)
2. If the coupon says "Limit one per purchase," they are treating it as "One per transaction." I tried to explain the difference in these two wordings, but the manager said that's how their computers are programed.
3. Have your coupons and 5 items ready. They would like to go through them and make sure they are correct before starting the transaction. This is for you. If you accidentally picked up the wrong size or product for a coupon and it is rejected, then you will not be able to double any coupons for the rest of the day. (again, this is monitored by the card program, not the store).
4. If an item is $3.29 and you have a $2.00 coupon, no overage will be given. The coupon will be doubled up to the price of the item, but not over it.
Here's a list of Kmart stores that are participating in the Double Coupon Event.
