A few weeks ago, I posted here about Walmart’s updated coupon policy.  The new policy has generated lots of excited, especially because you can now get “overage” when you use coupons there and buy a product using a coupon that has a higher value than the price of the actual product.  The other item that generated excitement was the opportunity to use store catalina coupons.  I was able to do this at my store when I tried, but I have gotten e-mails from others who have had mixed experiences.

Walmart has now updated their coupon policy to include the following clarification about the catalina coupons they will accept:

Checkout coupons (“Catalinas”)

• Printed at our competitors’ registers for dollar/cents off on a specific item
• Must have “Manufacturer Coupon” with specific item requirements printed on them
• Must have a valid remit address for the manufacturer
• Must have a valid expiration date
• Must have a scannable bar code
• Are acceptable in black and white
• May not be duplicated

Because it now specifics “specific item” this means you cannot use Register Rewards from Walgreens or OYNO catalinas from your grocery stores.  This is a bummer, but it’s still exciting that you can get overage!
