Coupon Changes at HEB!

Got this information from HEB and wanted to make you aware that changes are coming!

We wanted you to be the first to know about the beginning of exciting coupon changes at H-E-B!

On January 29, 2013, H-E-B will launch a new and innovative coupon system that will allow us to begin testing digital coupons in addition to our current coupon offering. The upgraded system will give H-E-B customers the opportunity to access more coupons than ever before, while improving the shopping experience with faster transactions at the checkout counter. In order to implement these upgrades, the newer technology will no longer recognize combined (stacked) coupons on one item.

As soon as we can release more details about the digital coupon program, you will be the first to know! In the meantime, we wanted to be sure that you had the most recent information about our policy. Please see below for FAQ’s about the coupon policy changes.

Why is H-E-B changing their coupon policy?

Can we still combine coupons on one item?

·        Many product vendors will not accept combined coupons, in order to offer an expanded coupon selection, combined (stacked) coupons will not be part of the new program.

How will this new policy allow additional savings?
