Belle Foods (Food World, Piggly Wiggly, Bruno's, Southern Family Markets) Coupon Policy

Belle Foods, the new owners of Food World, Piggly Wiggly, Bruno's and Southern Family Markets have released a new coupon policy for their stores.  The highlights are no more stacking manufacturer and store coupons, still doubling manufacturer coupons to $0.50, a limit of 10 like coupons and no cash back if coupon is more than the price of the item.

Here it is in full:

We operate under the formats of Belle Foods, Bruno’s, Food World, Food World Discount Foods, Piggly Wiggly and Southern Family Markets. We appreciate your business and your interest in our coupon redemption policy. Our policy for the three basic types of coupons, Manufacturer, Store, and Internet is explained below, as well as our policy on accepting competitor’s coupons.

Manufacturer Coupons - Coupons for which companies that sell product in our stores reimburse Belle Foods. Within these guidelines, there is no limit to the number of manufacturer coupons you may use for your entire transaction.

a. We double Manufacturer Coupons with a face value of fifty cents ($0.50) or less. For example, if you have a coupon valued at more than $0.50, we would redeem it for face value; it would not be doubled. A $1.00 coupon would be redeemed for $1.00, not $1.50. If you have a coupon for $0.40 it would be doubled to $0.80; a coupon for $0.50 would be doubled to $1.00

b. Limit of ten (10) Manufacturer Coupons doubled on any like item.

c. Manufacturer Coupons cannot be layered with a store coupon; you cannot use more than one coupon per item purchased. However, within these guidelines, there is no limit to the number of coupons you may use for your entire transaction.

d. Limit of twenty (20) like Manufacturer Coupons can be used when you purchase twenty (20) like items.

e. Value of coupon cannot exceed the value of item. (If value exceeds the price, the item is free but no cash is given back).

f. All coupons accepted must be in date, legible, and no photo copies.

Internet Coupons - Belle Foods will accept Internet coupons when management approves them. Coupons should never decrease the order for more than the product. Coupons should never be copied or altered.

a. We do not accept “free product” Internet printed Manufacturer Coupons.

b. Internet Coupons must scan at checkout

c. Internet Coupons must have serial numbers and follow industry standard format.

d. Manufacturer Internet printed coupons must clearly indicate that they are a

Manufacturer Coupon and have a valid manufacturer address printed on the

coupon.

e. Only one Internet Coupon allowed for each like item.

f. Value of coupon cannot exceed the value of item.

Store Coupons - Coupons from our advertisements or mailers and the reduced item coupons we use on in-store items.

a. Store Coupons are not doubled

b. Store Coupons cannot be layered with a Manufacturer Coupon; you cannot use more than one coupon per item purchased.

c. Value of coupon (when free) cannot exceed the value of item.

d. All coupons accepted must be in date, legible, and no photo copies.

Due to the high incidence of fraudulent coupons in the market, we reserve the right to deny any coupons we cannot verify as legitimate.

Thank you for shopping with us and we appreciate your business. If you have any further questions regarding our coupon policy, please feel free to ask your local store manager.
