This would be one of those basic, possibly dumb, questions. How can you use expired coupons when you shop?

I guess it depends on where you live,here in Palmdale CA all the Albertsons stores accept expired coupons.I learned this through a pregnancy center.One of the volunteers also works at Albertsons,she said the cashiers are instructed not to worry about expiration dates.You can always ask the store manager about it.I guess a lot of stores used to accept expired coupons but dont any more.

I have some tied up in eBay right now, but if no one takes them, I'll go through them and see how many I have you can use. But I also have a bunch more... please e-mail me!

Wow... Times have really changed! I worked as a cashier for Albertsons in Florida in the 1980's. At that time, we were trained that accepting or using expired coupons was considered Consumer Fraud. Cashiers were regularly chastised for doing so, and really bad examples of cashier *stupidity* were shared with ALL CASHIERS in weekly meetings to boot!

But one thing Albertsons did do back then was offer double & triple the coupon face value - on any value except those marked for getting "free" items. Here in Florida, Albertsons stores don't even do that anymore.

However, I think I can help you with the quest for expired coupons. I have a whole SHOEBOX full of them. I was saving them for a friend who shares them with US military families. Military families can use coupons that were up to 6-months out of date on certain military bases. Since she's stopped collecting them, I'll be glad to share them with you. I'll send you a private email and we can set up something.
