How to Coupon at Walmart

Walmart is the go-to store for many shoppers thanks to its wide variety of products and the many different types of deals available. Therefore, whether you want to get new electronics for your place, refresh your fashion collection, or refill your pantry, Walmart is worth trying, and you can also get more savings when you check and get the Walmart Ad Deals for your store.

What’s more, the retailer features offers regularly so that you can save on the items you need. For example, the weekly ad includes special prices and money-saving benefits that you can use to save on the items you need on a weekly basis, while the Walmart+ membership will get you free shipping with no minimum order, member prices on fuel, and various other perks.

Coupons are another great and easy way to save at Walmart. Plus, when you combine them with the low prices and special offers at this retailer or certain apps, you get to save even further. If you’re new to coupons at Walmart, here is a short guide to help you make the most out of them next time you shop.

How to Access Coupons at Walmart

Walmart offers coupons that you can print at home and use at your local store. To access these coupons, go to the Weekly Ad section and then to Coupons. Here is where you will find all the coupons available for printing.

You can also go to the top navigation bar and then select the Stores icon. Use your zip code to search for your store or select Local Store from the drop-down menu. You should then see all the latest coupons. Check the ones you’d like to print and then select Print Coupons.

Thanks to the filters available, you can sort the available coupons by category, brand, and highest and lowest savings, to name a few. Coupons are updated frequently, so it is best to check this page before your every trip to the store. Plus, they apply to a variety of products, so it shouldn’t be difficult for you to find something of interest.

First-time users are verified with a one-time verification code. The good thing is that once you’re verified, you won’t be verified again. You will see that after you select Print Coupons, you will have to enter your phone number to receive a verification code from Coupons.com. Enter the code you’ve received and then select Verify and Print.

Manufacturer’s Coupons

In order to help its customers save when shopping for the items they need, Walmart accepts valid paper manufacturer coupons issued by manufacturers of items included in its selection of products. However, there are some terms and conditions that apply, so make sure to read Walmart’s coupon policy before shopping.

First and foremost, the paper manufacturer coupons should be valid and scan at the register. The retailer accepts one coupon per product and follows the manufacturer’s limitations as stated on the coupon you want to use. For example, sometimes, you can use 4 coupons for the same product.

Make sure that the manufacturer coupons you want to use mention that they are manufacturer coupons and feature the following information: a scannable GS1 barcode, a valid expiration date, and a valid remit billing address for the manufacturer of the item you want to buy. Another great thing about couponing at Walmart is that the retailer accepts BOGO as well as Dollars/Cents Off coupons.

In order to benefit from such coupons, the products must match the coupon description regarding the brand, quantity, size, and other such aspects. Once you’ve made sure that the coupons are valid and you’ve added all the items of interest to your shopping cart, show the coupons to the cashier at the time of purchase. Coupons can’t be applied once the transaction is completed or to previous purchases.

What’s also worth noting is that, according to its coupon policy, Walmart is one of the few stores that “may give cash after overages are applied to the transaction total (remaining basket).” Exceptions apply, though, and thus WIC and SNAP transactions are not included.

Also, keep in mind that, as stated on the retailer’s website, “store managers have the final decision in taking care of customers.”

Internet/Print-at-Home Coupons

In case you find it easier to print coupons at home and then show them to the cashier, learn that Walmart does accept such coupons. The above-mentioned rules apply in this case as well. The coupons must be valid and thus not expired and should feature a GS1 barcode that scans at the register.

According to the store’s coupon policy, Walmart does not accept “internet coupons for free items with no purchase requirements.” Plus, if the coupons you’ve printed are blurry, are altered in any way, or don’t scan properly, the retailer won’t accept them.

Even though more and more retailers now offer digital coupons through their websites and applications, Walmart does not accept such coupons or coupons scanned off a mobile phone. Also, it does not accept competitor/retailer coupons.

Use Rebate Apps and Coupon Websites to Save More

To help your savings add up even further, you can also use the various rebate apps available these days. Ibotta is one such example. Walmart has more Ibotta offers than many other retailers, so it is worth checking if there are any available Ibotta offers including coupons next time you go shopping.

Besides rebate apps, you can also resort to trustworthy coupon websites that offer coupons that can be used at Walmart. Coupons.com is such a website. At the time of writing, this website featured 52 Walmart Grocery coupons available for receipt scanning, as you can see in the image below.
