Albertsons Coupon Acceptance Policy

Northwest Region: Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, Utah, Washington, & Wyoming

"Albertsons promotes a coupon friendly shopping experience and encourages customers to participate in store, manufacturer and internet coupon use. The following policy guidelines are current, but Albertsons may change this policy at any time and policy changes may not be advertised. Coupon redemptions are subject to the policy in effect at time of redemption. The current policy information can be discussed with individual store management but is not posted in each store.

Coupons - Definition: Coupons are a form of tender to reduce an order total based on merchandise purchased. Retailers are not required by law to accept manufacturers' coupon. Coupons can be in print and/or in electronic form, and may be integrated into the register systems where they are deducted automatically when all purchase requirements are met.   

General Coupon Acceptance Guidelines

Coupons are accepted in accordance to the stated requirements on the coupon at the time of purchase. These requirements include, but are not limited to: product type, flavor(s), size(s), quantities and minimum/maximum dollar purchase limits.

Coupons are intended for one time use and cannot be redeemed more than once.

Coupons have no cash value.

Albertsons only accepts original coupons and does not accept photocopied or reproduced coupons (including multiple prints of same series internet coupons).

Albertsons does not accept expired coupons. Printed expiration dates are verified in addition to scanning the coupon for validity.

Coupons stating "on next/future purchase or visit" cannot be used in the transaction in which they are generated. Next purchase is defined as a separate transaction.

The coupon redemption value on 'Free' coupons may not exceed the value of the item.

Albertsons will accept ONE manufacturer coupon and ONE store coupon on the same qualifying item.

Albertsons does not accept competitor coupons. (Coupons generated by any competitor with competitor logo are considered competitor coupons.)

All applicable sales taxes are paid by the customer at the full value of the item.

Albertsons reserves the right to refuse any coupons at its discretion.
