Every year millions of dollars in grocery coupons go unused. That's because most people don't realize they can donate expired grocery coupons to military families through the Overseas Coupon Program. All manufacturer's coupons, including printable coupons, are accepted up to six month after their expiration date.

**Always check with your stores coupon policy through their website BEFORE taking your coupons to the store. Not all stores allow certain coupons. If you use a lot of coupons, it is best to print out the policy and bring with you. Always check periodically to see if the policy has been updated with changes. Then print out the new one. Some cashiers may not be aware of the changes and you will have your policy there to back you up :-)**
Here are the rules for using coupons at our area stores. The rules vary by store, and it's important you structure your shopping to comply with the rules at that particular store. It seems complicated at first, but with a little practice, it will all be second-nature.
-Food Lion takes manufacturer’s coupons but does not double them.
-Harris Teeter does double coupons, all the time. Up to 99 cents in value, up to 20 coupons in an order. Limit three of the same coupon.
-Kroger doubles manufacturer's coupons up to 50 cents. No limit on the number of identical coupons.
-Lowes Foods doubles all the time, up to 99 cents in value. Limit four of the same coupon.
-Wal-Mart takes coupons but doesn't double them. Wal-Mart's official coupon policy states that anyone who wants to use more than 40 coupons in a single order will require manager approval.
BJ's does, and even allows you to use several coupons if you are buying a multi-pack. So, if you are buying a multi-pack of toothpaste with five tubes in it and had five Colgate coupons, you could use them. The important distinction here is that the individual units in the multi-pack have to come packaged individually, like the individual tubes you'd buy at a regular store. So the big huge boxes of diapers don't count for the multi-pack rule since it has different packaging specifically for BJs.
Warehouse clubs also put out their own coupons for members.
-Other stores operate on a case-by-case basis, so it's best to ask if you are unsure.
