Coupons



We get the question all the time through the 'contact us' on our Harter House website,  What is your coupon policy?  Well, not to worry.  We now post our coupon policy online. But just in case, here is our policy for all of our locations:




Harter House Coupon Policy


  • Harter House stores will double up to and including .50 every day.






  • We do not offer store coupons and vendor coupons to be used on the same item and we do not allow for more coupon value than the value of the product.






  • Harter House reserves the right to limit quantities based on product availability and market conditions.





  • Printable Coupon Acceptance Policy

    Harter House Supermarket accepts legitimate printable coupons that consumers receive via retailer and manufacturer websites and email campaigns, through interactive advertising and promotions on web publisher sites, and from legitimate online coupon sites. We recognize that our customers are increasingly turning to the Internet to find coupons. In an effort to make using printable coupons a positive experience, we have created these store policies and consumer guidelines to help consumers and store personnel alike prevent the abuse of these promotions.

    Printable Coupons Must:

    • Always scan properly at the register. Legitimate printable coupons are delivered using special software designed to print a properly rendered barcode on the coupon. Harter House will only accept printable coupons if they scan properly at checkout.
    • Will not be for “free” product. It is an industry practice not to produce printable coupons for free product. Buy-one-get-one-free coupons and other values that have a purchase requirement are acceptable. “Free product” coupons should always be pre-printed and sent via postal mail or published in media, and printed double-sided and/or on security paper. Harter House will not accept “FREE product” printable coupons.
    • Will not be for a high value relative to the cost of the item. For example, a $2 off coupon will be acceptable for a product that normally sells for $5 or more, but a $2 off printable coupon for a product that sells for $2.25 is unlikely to be legitimate. Harter House will not accept coupons for more than 75% of a product’s value.
    • Usually have short expiration dates. Some coupons may have longer expiration dates, but most expire 30-45 days after you print them. Harter House receives information about valid printable coupon expiration dates and may reject coupons that have altered expiration dates.
    • Never appear on screen. All legitimate printable coupons are sent directly to the printer after clicking on a link in your web browser or email. A legitimate coupon is never sent as a graphic or PDF or sent in a Word document.
    • Are never copied, sold or traded. Nearly all coupons are “non-transferable” meaning they should not be photocopied or scanned and distributed to others. Coupons are never sold and you should not pay for someone’s “time to clip” or other service fee. You should always print the coupon yourself directly from the website or email that is offering it. Only then can you ensure you are printing a legitimate coupon. Coupons may be rejected if they appear out of proportion or blurry, or are obvious duplicates.
    • Are nearly always printed using the same technology and therefore have a standard format, with very specific security features, including a unique serial code. Coupons may be rejected if they appear to have been altered in any way.
