there are a couple manufacturer coupons available for Fiber One. my guess is their MyMixx forms won’t kick in to supplement the Store eCpn (or they’ll hit the $0 limit and be useless anyway), and the dunces there might refuse to use a printed coupon on something “that’s already free”, their own coupon policy be damned.
so i’m recommending the SavingStar route here. the new Layered Chewy Bars (at $2.50 sale price) are part of the wide-ranging store freebie, and there’s a $0.50 SavingStar for them. we’ll see whether mine kicks in. there’s also a $0.50-off-2 for other varieties.

follow-up, 8 days later: no go. their Frequently Asked Questions page has this sentence:
“If you use in-store digital coupons it may prevent you from earning a reward for the corresponding SavingStar offer.”
it used to read differently:
“Using in-store coupons in combination with SavingStar eCoupons is not a problem.”
the current wording is vague: “may prevent you?” as in it’s intentional? or a side effect of blocking digital manufacturer coupons?
i’m gonna contact them and see if it can be done manually, mere 50 cents or not. at least, maybe i’ll get clarity on whether the omission is actual policy.

further follow-up: the SavingStar customer service rep replied that because the item was reported to them as “zero cost”, their system doesn’t count it or apply a credit. they agreed to give me a “one-time courtesy credit”, which implies it’s a stacking that can’t be repeated.
however, i’m still unclear on whether their rewritten FAQ entry indicates a changed policy, and whether they allow store and manufacturer e-coupons to stack _generally_. to test, i’ll have to wait until encountering a non-freebie store MyMixx, which is pretty rare, outside of the ones with Monopoly icons in the corner a few months ago. then hope said item also has a SavingStar running.
