Vons limits coupon doubling
Wow, I totally missed the boat on this one. Last week Vons decided to limit its coupon doubling program so shoppers get a maximum discount of $1, just like Ralphs did a few months ago. Coupons worth $.51 or more will be capped at $1.
Once already Vons announced it was cutting its coupon doubling program, according to an LA Times story.
"Vons is known for its coupon flip-flops. Two years ago, the chain said it was taking a scissors to its double-coupon policy, but it eventually brought back the promotion because of competitive pressures."
But with Ralphs' coupon doubling program gone, I doubt Vons will feel enough competition to bring it back. It's unclear from the story when the new Vons policy will take effect.
