This week’s syndicated Super-Couponing Tips column is entitled “Cashiers tell front-lines tales.” Here’s an excerpt:
“Dear Jill,
“I have been a cashier for three years, and I have to disagree with the premise that the manufacturer expects us to read the fine print. No — they expect that you will try to use the coupon, and if you discover at checkout that the coupon is not valid for that product, you will purchase the product anyway. This is what happens 90 percent of the time. Please tell readers not to blame the cashier when the coupon is rejected. Yes, I understand that another cashier may previously have honored this same coupon on a different item for you. But I follow the rules, and if I carefully check why it is being rejected and explain to you why the coupon is not valid on this particular item, understand that the other cashier entered the coupon wrongfully. I will not do that.”
