Get Ready for the Holidays Countdown: 68 Days to Christmas

With 68 Days to The Holidays I thought I would share the Coupon Policies, for Crafts stores ( I spend tons of time in these places this time of year)...

Just a tid bit, you can score awesome clearance items at Michael's often in the dollar spot ( I use these for Operation Christmas Child) and if it's marked down to a penny, it's FREE.. Yes I have picked up a few free things LOL
We often see coupons for craft stores but by knowing coupon policies you can save even more! Did you know that you stack coupons to save a ton??
Here is a break down on the coupon policies for JoAnn, Michaels, and Hobby Lobby.

Michaels

Frequency: One coupon type per customer per day
Competitors Accepted: 
A.C. Moore, Hobby Lobby, Jo-Anns, Garden Ridge, Roberts, Pat Catan’s and Ben Franklin
Exclusions:
 Will not accept competitor coupons for a percent off multiple items (Ex. 25% off your entire purchase.)

Coupon Combinations:
-Can use more than 1 competitor coupon per day
Example: (1) Michaels, (1) Hobby Lobby, and (1) JoAnn’s could all be used when you buy (3) items.
-You cannot use (2) coupons with identical barcodes in one day.
Example: You could not use a mobile coupon and printable coupon for 40% off with the same barcode.
-You can use multiple same-store coupons with different barcodes.
Example: You can use (1) coupon for 25% off your entire purchase and (1) coupon for 40% off one item, but the 25% off coupon will not apply to the item the 40% off coupon attached to.
Note: Some have reported having issues using multiple coupons at Michaels, but it will work according to their coupon policy and I have personally used two coupons with unique barcodes in one transaction.

JoAnn Fabric & Crafts

Frequency: One coupon type per customer per day
Competitors Accepted: Michael’s, Hancock and Hobby Lobby
Exclusions: Will not accept competitor coupons for items that competitor does not carry. (Ex. Cannot use a Michael’s coupon for 40% off fabric.)
Tip: Sign-up in-store to be emailed additional in-store coupons.
Coupon Combinations:

Example: (1) Michaels, (1) Hobby Lobby, and (1) JoAnn’s could all be used when you buy (3) items.
-You cannot use (2) coupons with identical barcodes in one day.
