I have been wondering lately about coupons. I cut coupons for the products that I buy but then when I get to the store, I have been seeing that the price is actually higher those weeks. This may be old news to some but is news to me.
It seemed to me they were making up the difference for the coupon that was being offered; it brought the price back to what I originally paid for it the week before that. Buy one get one free is still a savings. However even the doubling of the coupon has been made up by the price on the shelf back to the original price at times. I thought it was just the one store so I tried another last week and saw the same thing. It is not all products but some. So sometimes the coupons are and are not a deal, be wary.
