Perhaps you did not realize that Alberston’s no longer accepts competitor’s coupons.   As a matter of fact,  Albertson’s is the last retailer in their operating area to discontinue this practice.  So once again, another reason to periodically update yourself on store coupon policies.  There’s too much to gain in being well prepared when it comes to couponing… “There is much pleasure to be gained in useless knowledge.”

Albertson’s accepts the following VALID coupons:

  • Manufacturer Coupons:  Most manufacturer’s coupons have bar codes for scanning.  If a coupon does not have a bar code it needs to be checked for validity of expiration date and requirements of purchase.
  • Store Coupons:  These are discounts offered by Albertson’s directly for purchases within their store.  There are several different forms of discount offers available such as printed, electronic, direct mailers, kiosks, newspaper, and direct company website.  Always  be watchful for store coupons as some will only be valid with Preferred Card, Super Card, or Loyalty Card.
  • Internet Coupons:  These are coupons offered by either the manufacturer or Albertson’s website for a qualifying purchase. 
  • The following conditions are examples of internet coupons that Albertson’s does not accept:
  • Any item offered free, not requiring a purchase.
    Any coupon redeemable for excess of $5.00.
    UPC bar code is either absent or unreadable.
    Photocopied internet coupons.
  • Catalina Checkout Coupons/Rebates:  Catalina printers generate manufacturer coupons and Albertson in-store coupons.  These coupons are activated at checkout and only qualify for future purchases, not within the purchase by which they are generated.  These coupons are for the exclusive use of the consumer whom they were generated for.  It is Albertson’s policy to dispose of these coupons if the consumer has no interest in using them.  Albertson’s does not accept Catalina coupons from competitors.  If you have questions regarding Catalina coupons you can receive assistance by calling 1-888-826-8766.
