Dollar Tree hasn't been taking coupons for a full year yet and they are making yet ANOTHER change to their coupon policy. They just made a change back in December, but they've come back to the table and added more restrictions. Rumors are one thing, but when they've updated the website, it's official folks!! Clearly, the customers have been responding well, so the good news is that they will continue taking them. For the full policy, click here (go to the bottom of the page):

This time the changes are highlighted in bold and are as follows:
They reiterated this policy, so stop trying to use Rite Aid coupons there!! LOL!!
- We accept Manufacturer Coupons only. We do not accept retail-specific coupons, such as those of Target, Wal-Mart, etc.
The last time they updated the policy, I wished they had addressed the $/2 coupon. This time they have. Though they made it clear, they also created additional confusion. Take a look:
- We accept coupons for over a dollar on multiple items if the coupon amount does not exceed the combined retail price of the items indicated.
- We accept up to four (4) like coupons per household per day.
In that last update, they told us that if a coupon exceeded the amount of the item, they would reduce the down to the price. So...here they are saying they will reduce it down for one item, but not two items. Seems a little confusing and inconsistent.
I don't mind these changes at all, but as a consumer I feel like they should have done this in the first place. Now, they are working backward and revising way too often in my opinion. They should have just taken the time to PREPARE to accept coupons and develop a THOROUGH coupon policy based on their needs BEFORE they presented it to the public.
Also, we're STILL waiting for them to upgrade those cash registers to scan our coupons!! Another thing they should have done to prepare, so those poor cashiers don't have to key in EVERY coupon!! Maybe that will be on the next updated policy. Perhaps that change will be part of their one year celebration of taking coupons!! We'll just hope. Go out and get your Dollar Tree items!! Enjoy!!
