On your next order...


For those of you who are new to couponing, I thought I'd take a minute to talk about coupons good on your next order, or OYNO in coupon slang. OYNO coupons are usually ones that print out at the register after you've completed your order. If you've made the qualifying purchase, you then get your coupon good for a certain amount off your next order. These are great because they're like cash, and you can use several in one transaction if you choose.

Lots of folks don't know this, but some of our area grocery stores actually list all of the valid OYNO deals on their Web sites. You can check them out before you go to the store. Remember you will need to scan your loyalty card when you check out to get the coupon. Here are the links:

Harris Teeter

Food Lion

Lowes Foods (under the Cash Back Checkout Coupons heading)

My experience has been that you can use them at another store. I even got Wal-mart to accept one.:) They say manufacturers coupons.

Re: On your next order...

Sue's right, you should ask before you shop if there's any doubt, but I used an OYNO from Harris Teeter yesterday at Food Lion for $1.00 off Land of Lakes Half & Half and had no problem.

Re: On your next order...

Usually OYNO coupons expire within a couple of weeks, so sometimes I lose out on redeeming one if it's from a store where I shop less frequently. Recently a Food Lion cashier tipped me that Food Lion honors its OYNOs a few days past the expiration date -- and then she successfully scanned my "expired" coupon. I don't know if this is true for other stores, but it's worth asking if you're holding a recently expired OYNO.

Re: On your next order...

Good question. You'll note that most of them carry the store logo of the store where they were issued but also say manufacturer's coupon. I find that stores that accept competitors coupons (like HT) generally take them. But the best advice is to check at customer service before you shop. That way you know before you check out. 

Re: On your next order...

I just got one of these Tuesday at Lowes Foods. I bought a bunch of dog treats and I got a $1.50 OYNO coupond from Pupperoni.

I have a question. Can these be used at any store?? Like mine was issued at Lowes Foods, but could I use it at Harris Teeter??

Thanks for all the great info you share. I love reading this blog every day. It's like an addiction. Here and SavvyDollar. I'm hooked.
