ACME Store Coupon Policy

ACME Markets promotes a coupon friendly shopping experience and encourages
customers to participate in store, manufacturer and internet coupon use. The
following policy guidelines are current, but ACME Markets may change this
policy at any time and policy changes may not be advertised. Coupon
redemptions are subject to the policy in effect at time of redemption. The current
policy information can be discussed with individual store management but is not
posted in each store.

Coupons – Definition: Coupons are a form of tender to reduce an order total
based on merchandise purchased. Retailers are not required by law to accept
manufacturers’ coupon. Coupons can be in print and/or in electronic form, and
may be integrated into the register systems where they are deducted automatically
when all purchase requirements are met.

General Coupon Acceptance Guidelines:

• · Coupons are accepted in accordance to the stated requirements on the
  coupon at the time of purchase. These requirements include, but are not
  limited to: product type, flavor(s), size(s), quantities and minimum/maximum
  dollar purchase limits.
• · Coupons are intended for one time use and cannot be redeemed more than
  once.
• · Coupons have no cash value.
• · ACME Markets only accepts original coupons and does not accept
  photocopied or reproduced coupons (including multiple prints of same
  series internet coupons).
• · ACME Markets does not accept expired coupons. Printed expiration dates
  are verified in addition to scanning the coupon for validity.
• · Coupons stating “on next/future purchase or visit” cannot be used in the
  transaction in which they are generated. Next purchase is defined as a
  separate transaction.
• · The coupon redemption value on ‘Free’ coupons may not exceed the value
  of the item.

  including, but not limited to: “terms of agreement”, “face value”,
  “expiration date” and the verbiage “manufacturer coupon”. ACME Markets

  advertisements that state “redeemable only at ACME Markets” in which
