Farm Fresh pharmacy is also great when you’re picking up groceries.  Drop your prescription off, do your shopping and come back when you’re finished.  The pharmacist has always been friendly and answered all our questions.

Have you signed up for Farm Fresh’s email list?  Last week I received a store coupon for $2 off a $4 chicken purchase.  I purchased a huge Perdue roaster chicken on sale for $6.66, used the store coupon and paid $4.66.  I just received a coupon good for $2 off a $4 pork purchase.  I love extra savings on meat!

My Farm Fresh Trip 06/16

in Farm Fresh Weekly Ads, My Shopping Trip

Disclosure: This post may contain an affiliate link.

I was thrilled with my $1 cheese that qualified for the Dairy Month Promo.  I had 4 Crystal Farms cheese coupons, so I split into 2 transaction with a yogurt in each to get me to the 5 item requirement. 
See my matchups HERE
Transaction 1
4 Cheese $1 each
1 Delights yogurt $0.50
Total Paid $4.53, Earned $5 CAT
Total Saved $6.00
“Made” $0.47
Transaction 2
Bread $1.50
2 Goldfish=FREE
4 Kraft Mac & Cheese=$0.04 each!
4 Barilla Whole Wheat Pasta=FREE
2 Hartz Dog Biscuits-$1.99 (reg price) – $1/1 from 04/11 SS insert=FREE
1 Bounty=0.39 (opps, $1 was for trial size-corrected on list)
4 Poptarts=$0.75 each
1 Cheesecake middles $1.75-$0.55 tearpad awhile ago=$0.65
2 Hidden Valley Ranch $2.29 (reg price)- $1/1 printable=$0.29 each (coupon about to expire)
4 Crystal Farms Cheese=$1 each
1 YoPlus Yogurt=$0.50
*I flaked and forgot to used $5 CAT from transaction 1

Total Paid $6.61
Total Saved $34.28

(Earned $5 CASH instead of CAT because shredded cheese rang up $3 instead of $2, so manager fixed immediately since she was bagging my groceries causing CAT not to print-deducted from total spent)
How did you do?

Farm Fresh Coupon Policy

by Dana Zeliff on June 15, 20102010-06-15
in Farm Fresh Weekly Ads

Disclosure: This post may contain an affiliate link.

PLEASE SEE THE FARM FRESH COUPON POLICY HERE.  THE POLICY BELOW HAS BEEN REVISED.
*Updated: September 29, 2010*

I’d first like to commend Corporate Farm Fresh for their quick and thorough response to my email regarding their coupon policy.

Most of the policy we already know and is pretty standard but could come in handy if you have a new cashier.  I want to mention points on the Internet coupon policy to include the clarification I asked for to make sure everyone was on the same page.

  • INTERNET COUPONS ARE ACCEPTED
  • Internet coupons aren’t accepted for a free product (ie-can’t use free cookies up to $2 value)*
  • Internet coupons are accepted for Buy 1 Get 1 items*
  • Internet coupons can’t have a redemption value greater than $7
  • Internet coupons must have a barcode
  • Internet coupons can’t be photocopied

Dear Dana Zeliff,
 

Thank you for contacting us regarding the Farm Fresh coupon policy . We appreciate the opportunity to assist you.

At this time, below we have listed the full coupon policy:

Manufacturer Coupons: Coupons issued by the manufacturer containing: “terms of agreement”, face value, expiration date, and verbiage “manufacturer coupon.” They have handling instructions printed on them.

Most manufacturer coupons have barcodes on them and can be scanned. Any coupons that do not scan or do not have barcodes should be checked for validity of expiration date and purchase requirements.

Farm Fresh may issue coupons that are manufacturer coupons that contain the words “redeemable only at Farm Fresh.”

————

Store Coupons: Company’s discount offers in various forms of media including, but not limited to, print, electronic, newspaper, direct mailers, ad inserts, kiosks and Company websites.

Store coupons may also contain the words “redeemable only at Farm Fresh”.

When redeeming a store coupon the terms printed on the coupon must be adhered to.

————-

Can a Manufacturer Coupon be Combined with a Store Coupon?

Details:

Yes a customer can use a manufacture coupon in conjunction with a store coupon on the same item, if it takes it below the stated retail value we DO NOT give money back. We adjust the coupon.

For example a customer has a $1 off mayo coupon with one of our own $1 off coupons but the jar of mayo is only for $1.98. We would take off the manufacturer coupon for a dollar then adjust the store coupon to 98 cents. Thus making it free for the customer but not giving money back.

————–

Internet Coupons: Coupons printed from an internet website presented for redemption with a qualifying purchase. Coupons are accepted with the exceptions of those meeting the conditions below:

Farm Fresh DOES NOT accept internet coupons containing the following conditions:

‘Free’ product offers that do not require a purchase

Redemption value exceeding $7.00

Absence of UPC bar code

Photocopied internet coupons. Most internet sites will print a time and date stamp on the coupons, and limit each ISP address to two coupons total. If multiple coupon have the same time and date stamp this could be an indicator the coupon was photocopied, and should not be accepted. This is not a policy of the store but rather a means to prevent coupon fraud.

————-

Farm Fresh does not accept competitor’s coupons

If we may be of further assistance, please contact customer care at 1-877-932-7948 or via email.

Sincerely,
Fritz B.
Customer Care Specialist

I wanted clarification on the Internet coupon policy for Not accepting coupons for “Free Product Offers”.  This is my email:

Thank you for your prompt response to my coupon policy inquiry!

Could you please provide clarification to the Internet coupon policy-Farm Fresh Does Not accept ‘ Free product offers that do not require a purchase’.

ie- An Internet coupon stating FREE Tropicana OJ up to $2.50 value
ie- An Internet coupons stating Buy 1 Tropicana OJ, Get 1 Tropicana OJ FREE

Would one or both of these be accepted?

The response:

Dear Dana Zeliff,
 

Thank you for contacting us concerning the coupons for these items. We welcome the opportunity to assist you. The buy one get one free would be accepted.**

We strive for continued customer satisfaction and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that this may have caused you. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact our customer service center at 1-877-932-7948.

Sincerely,
Lisa L.
Customer Care Specialist

I know a lot of you have had issues with the printable coupons in particular. I would recommend printing a copy of these email responses and add it to your coupon binder or box. For those of you whose local Farm Fresh has post signs stating they will no longer accept Internet coupons or similar notices: I would recommend taking a copy of this email response to the manager. You may need to have them call corporate (# on email) or you call corporate on your cell phone.

Update: 06/23/10
Response via email to Reader Diane’s comment:

Good Morning Dana,
 


I am responding to your question you had on purchasing 2 boxes of crackers and if you could use a Buy One Get One Free coupon and a .55 cents coupon. You may use the one coupon towards the Buy One Get One Free items. To use the second coupon for .55 cents, you would have to purchase an addition box of crackers. If you had a coupon that stated Buy Two Get One Free, then you could use both coupons since you would be buying three boxes of crackers. Thank you for calling in your request to our call center and have a pleasant day. J

Thank You,
Melinda Blessing
Executive Assistant
Office 757-306-2006
Fax 757-306-2215

*Update 09/29/10*

Limit 20 coupons per person per day
Coupons will NOT be doubled that state “Do Not Double”
Please let me know if you’d like me to ask further questions and add it to the post.

My Farm Fresh, WAGS & CVS Trips 06/14

Farm Fresh
Farm Fresh is having double coupons through tomorrow.  I had to pick up a few items for Moneyboys end of the year party that I was assigned, so I went through my coupons to see what I had left.  I know everyone likes to see the super low OOP and free trips, but lately I just haven’t had time to split transactions or make a lot of trips.  Sorry!
See my matchups HERE

Milk $3.27
Asparagus $2.19

2 Muir Glen Organic Diced Tomatoes $2.39-$1/1 printable=$0.39 each
1 Creta Farms Cooked Ham $2.84-$1/ 1/2 lb tearpad=$0.84

Walgreens
I ran into WAGS on Sunday with about a minute and a half prep time with hubby and the kids in the car.  My plan was to purchase the above (excluding candy) in 1 transaction to save time and do THIS in a 2nd transaction.  Well, they haven’t restocked the Neutrogena bars or I just keep missing out on them.  Scratch idea 1.
It had also been posted all over bloggerland that the Nivea Active 3 were ringing up BOGO so I had 2 in my basket.  Obviously from the picture it didn’t ring up BOGO for me.  Needless to say I overspent because I split the razor and paper in 1 transaction to use the RR on the 2 Nivea’s.  Well, the Nivea didn’t ring up BOGO so I had the 2nd voided which meant that my item # was off (needed 2 items to use a coupon and RR) so I grabbed a $0.39 candy bar. Now I was under the total to be able to use the RR so I ended up with 3 candy bars.  Basically, had a purchased the razor then the Nivea and paper I would have been golden. 
See my matchups HERE
Transaction 1
Total Spent $5.49, Earned $4 RR
Total Saved $6.00
Transaction 2
Total Spent $0.49, Earned $6 RR
Total Saved $7.72
After factoring in the $6 RR I have left I “made” $0.02
I’d used up my RR’s before vacation so I didn’t have to run out before they expired.  Keep rolling the RR’s weekly to lower your OOP and maximize your savings.
 
CVS
Gillette and Old Spice are ringing up LIMIT 2!!!!!!  Thanks to a comment I was hoping I would get that lucky.  I used the BOGO coupon so I didn’t even pay for the 2nd Gillette!  There were plenty left on the shelves of Gillette, Old Spice and Schick.  I think they may have overstocked in anticipation of all the shoppers because extras were piled on top of the products lined up on the shelves.  Thanks Volvo CVS!

If you missed out on shopping Wednesday during double dollar day you get 3 more days of savings.  Farm Fresh will be having a Double Dollar Coupon Event Sunday-Tuesday!

I did a quick flip through the SS insert and nothing jumped out at me, but I’ll look after I finish CVS for more deals.  I wonder if the scotch sponges have been restocked?
