I am going through my Giant ad for this upcoming Sunday and wanted to tell you a few things about this week.
I noticed that Purex is on sale Buy One, Get One Free. Also, the circular has many Giant coupons in it!
Now, Giant doesn’t haven’t anything spelled out in their policy about using a Buy One, Get One Free coupon with a BOGO Sale. So this may be a YMMV deal, but I have been successful getting 2 free in the past.
Buy (2) Purex BOGO
use BOGO coupon in 02/21 RP
2 FREE after coupon
or it may work like this
Buy (3) Purex
use BOGO Coupon 02/21 RP
Get 3 for the price of 1
Let me know if you have tried either of these scenarios before at Giant.

Hi all,
I am a little disappointed. I went to Giant today in Berks county. Got my 6 items to get $3 off instantly, and noticed they don’t do that! Their ad is for 20 cents off per gallon if you purchase the 6 items. Kinda frustrating since I would have loved the $3 off instantly because I don’t get up there that often, it’s about a 25 minute haul for me and I didn’t need gas! lol!
Then I tried to get 4 purex and the cashier would not let me use the coupon AT ALL. She told me that since they are running the BOGO, I am already getting one for free and they can’t use the coupon. I asked her if I could use 1 coupon for all 4 as someone posted earlier and she told me no. I ended up asking her to remove them.
Oh well, I tried!!

I sent an email to Giant/Martins PA inquiring about their coupon policy regarding BOGO coupons and BOGO sales.
Here is there response:
Thank you for sharing your comments with us. I appreciate that you took the time to give us your feedback.
I apologize but we do not accept coupons for FREE items. I am sorry but the BOGO is our promotion and you only get one if one is purchased. We will not be reimbursed if one product is not purchased. I am sorry for any misunderstanding. You also asked about our double coupon policy. Your store will double the value of manufacturer’s coupons up to .99 cents. Customer must present their Bonuscard to receive the doubled value. The double coupon policy does not apply to Free coupons, Catalina coupons, store coupons or any other competitors coupons or certain items excluded by law. Only one coupon for the same item will be doubled, all other will be redeemed at face value. Example 12 cans of HiC 1 coupon doubled, 11 will be redeemed at face value.
Again, thank you for contacting us. If I can be of any more assistance, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
Please remember to use the reference number below for any additional correspondence.
Sincerely,
Cindy
Consumer Affairs Representative

Michele,
I think this person sent you the wrong information, but they don’t accept FREE coupons from the internet!
And not all stores double to $.99, in fact most are only double to $.50. I will get an official answer from my PR contact at Giant. Plus, her answer doesn’t make sense for a BOGO sale, so if you buy one, you get 2 free atleast.
I will get back to you.

i called my giant ahead of time, and they said it would mean 2 free! i ended up with 10 free purex – would have been 12 but i ran into a friend and gave her a coupon! so excited that i won’t have to buy laundry detergent for a LONG time!
ps – a great idea for a bridal shower or student going away to college – buy a laundry basket and fill it with some of your stockpiled cleaning & household items!!
Nicole says
For those of you not able to use the BOGO coupon w/the BOGO sale you can buy 4 of them and get 3 free…. dont just buy 3.. you are loosing out if you do that.. buy 1 G 3 free… I have only done it 1 time but I got 4 purex and put 2 coupons in with the understanding they may only let me use 1 but he put both in…
Ann says
The Purex deal worked for me. I also used Red Baron coupons and quite a few Uncrustables coupons and ended up with 2 of the $10 off next order Catalinas!
Michele says
I was just to Martins/Giant….I checked w/ the store manager before making my purchase. She said “it should” work (both FREE) and she said she would override it if it didn’t since she told me it would. I got my 12 (yes TWELVE) bottles and hit the register. The cashier said she was able to override them herself but at the end it required the manager to come and do an override. Bottomline I got TWELVE bottle FREE….WOOOHOOO!
Shannon says
Schweet!
Lindsay says
The BOGO sale + BOGO coupon worked for me today at Giant, and I got 2 bottles of Purex for free!!
Juliann says
Thank you for all the info..I appreciate it
Shannon says
No problem Juliann :)
Marci says
Thanks for the info. I’ve gotten spoiled…being able to see CVS, RiteAid, Walgreens flyers scanned in early. Hoping for the same for Giant!
beth says
I’ve gotten 2 for free with BOGO coupons at Giant before. Is it all Purex products that are BOGO?
Shannon says
It is the Purex 2X Detergent.
Carolyn says
I was wondering this myself. The end of the month falling on a sunday is so stressful for finding deals!
Carolyn says
Thanks for the heads up! i was hoping to hear of deals on Sunday to use up my Qs that expire! I have used BOGO coupons on a BOGO sale with no problem. Although, i do always try to go to younger cashiers.. just because they don’t give me too much hassle.
It is legitimate b/c they are getting the money from the manufacturer no matter what price they have the coupons.
Shannon says
Carolyn,
I have the ad here let me go through and find out any that expire before sunday.

Just want to let you know, that I really appreciate all the Giant Pa deals. I went shopping alone last night(while everyone was away) and looked for all the great deals mentioned that were unadvertised. I stocked up on Hunts Sauce, sour cream and found some great deals on tuna. Starkist 2 oz packs were $1.35 and I had some $1 off coupons from somewhere and a box of Uncle Ben’s Rice with a $1 off coupon. It was $.58.
Plus, PA dutch noodles were on sale for $1 per bag with a $1/2 coupon here: http://www.bringhealthhome.com/ This made them $.50 per bag.
Argo Corn starch 11-08-09 SS $0.50/1. It was $1.39 so I got it for $.39.
Thanks for motivating me to go back to the store and go through the coupons. I got some great stuff that I didn’t know I had coupons for!
Shannon says
Sharon,
Great job and thanks for sharing your finds. If we all help each other, we can score even more deals.
Marci says
Does anybody put up Giant flyers early, so I can get a headstart on shopping?
Shannon says
Marci,
No I don’t think so. I get mine directly from the printer from Giant. Unfortunately, they have asked me not to release the ad until Saturday before the ad starts. I do want to respect that, but I can try to scan the ad for the best deals and give some ideas.
Sorry.
