Store Coupon Policies

Check these on occasion to see if there are any changes before you try to use a coupon and find out you can't.


At most stores you can use one manufacturers coupon and one store coupon per item. Check the stores policy first. I have used one manufacturers and one store coupon at Shaws, Target and Rite Aid.

Save A Lot Coupon Policy


As a value-oriented company, we understand the importance of coupons to our shoppers. Save-A-Lot customer service often receives questions about the Save-A-Lot coupon policy. Because we operate more than 800 independently licensed stores, each store tends to have its own coupon policy. Across all corporate stores, we do not double coupons, but we do try to accept internet and manufacturer’s coupons (one per item).

For the most up-to-date and specific information about the Save-A-Lot coupon policy in your area, we recommend contacting your local store. To find local information and contact Save-A-Lot stores near you, use our store locator. Thank you!
