Woo hoo!
I last reported that my area Kroger refused my Internet coupons. Well, I fought back... and won!
First, I called the store itself. Left a message for the manager to call me back. I didn't hear anything, so I called Corporate to find out their official policy with regard to Internet coupons. I was advised that some stores accepted them, but that none of the stores in the Knoxville area would take Internet coupons.
I explained to them about the security and anti-fraud measures now in place from coupon providers like SmartSource and Coupons, Inc. I also described how it seemed like a mixed message when Kroger prominently displayed "blinkie" machines with SmartSource.com emblazoned on them, yet they wouldn't accept coupons from that very website. I was assured that they'd forward my comments on to my local store's manager.
Well, today my phone rang and it was the manager from the local Kroger. He assured me that he just announced to all his employees that his store would now accept Internet coupons.
YEAH, Baby!
