Q:
Are there restriction or conditions on the coupons?
A:
Yes, some coupons have restrictions. Merchants realize that reasonable restrictions work best. It is important that you carefully read the coupons before you redeem them. You can print and use your favorite coupons. You can even re-print the coupons to enjoy additional savings. The merchants will honor them every time. You can use only one coupon per day.
PLEASE READ ALL THE
RESTRICTIONS AND CONDITIONS COMPLETELY.
The
merchants extend these special offers to you as a way of creating
goodwill and introducing their products or services. Please use the
discounts in the spirit that they are offered. Don't expect the
merchants to substitute, exceed or extend the terms of their offers
or to reduce already discounted sale merchandise.
Q:
What is the expiration date on the coupons?
A:
Each coupon is valid for 14 days after printing.
Q:
Why do the merchants offer these coupons and discounts?
A:
The merchants are promoting their products to you. The best way to do that is to offer a discount or coupon to get you into their store and buy their products.
The cost of advertising averages 15% to 20% of the retail price
of their products. Because we do not charge the merchants to
advertise in our program, they can use the money they save on
advertising for the discounts for our members and the donations for our fundraisers. Each merchant has agreed to
provide a great discount and in return, we provide FREE advertising to them.
Q:
Why do some merchants have a card discount and no coupons and other merchants have coupons but no card discount?
A:
Each merchant chooses how they will reward you for shopping at their store. In some cases, your card will not be swiped because the merchant chooses not to have a card reader. All procedures on redeeming the coupons or card discounts will be posted on the coupon or on the merchant's web page.
Q:
How does the merchant decide the discount amount and the amount donated to the fundraiser?
A:
The merchant decides on the total amount they can afford to promote their products or services to our members. That amount is separated into the discount for the member, the donation for the fundraiser and the costs of the USA Savings Club program.
Q: I am having trouble printing my coupon. What should I do?
A:
Make sure you do not have the pop-up blocker enabled on your computer. Our print technology utilizes a pop-up window, and a pop-up blocker will restrict your ability to print your coupon. Make sure your printer is on, and plugged into your computer and an electrical outlet. Make sure your printer is online. Make sure there is paper and check to be sure it is not jammed. Check your printer
cartridge, ribbon or toner. Call us, if you still have trouble.
