The clerk at that store (not the one I usually go to) told me I couldn't use the $ off $ coupon because it beeped but he ended up putting it thru, then he wouldn't take my 2 Colgate coupons because they beeped even though the toothpaste was the correct kind. He proceeded to give me a spill about printable coupons and how they aren't supposed to accept them and made me feel really awful. HOWEVER, the Huggies printables didn't beep and he took those without a problem. I don't think I want to go back to that clerk again.
