This seems to be a new gimmick to me. At the Fred Meyers where I shop we got a coupon for Goya coconut water. My wife loves the stuff especially when it’s hot outside. The coupon stayed up to $3 off depending on the amount you buy. So we picked up six cans to get the $3 off but at the checkout the cashier tells me that this was not a coupon. On the top in small print in says “Not a Redeemable Coupon.” The way it works is that you buy the product and then get a real coupon. So as she said, the receipt machine printed out a coupon for our next purchase.
Today we got the same kind of coupon for another product. I told the cashier that this is like a car dealership using a baiting technique. I don’t think she understood.
The whole thing is a scam. Anyone else come across these fake coupons yet?
