What Can You Do if Your Local Walmart is Being Difficult in Honoring the Walmart Price Match Policy?
It has been recommended by Walmart's Corporate office to file complaints about the local Walmart in question. Simply call 1-800-WALMART and you will be connected to a LIVE person to voice your complaints and concerns. They will also ask you the city, state, and zip code of the Walmart location you are reporting. They keep track of all the complaints at each location and if they get enough, they will contact the store directly and try to get the matter resolved. As their Walmart Price Match Policy states. "We’re committed to providing low prices every day. On everything. So if you find a lower advertised price on an identical product, tell us and we’ll match it. Right at the register." They will want to get to the bottom of it. That is exactly what took place to keep American Fork, Utah Walmart from enforcing the bring your own ads in policy. http://www.pricematchwithrachel.com/walmart-changing-their-price-match-policy-2013.html

Dollar Stores Not Giving Any Credit To Couponers Shopping at Their Stores.
http://online.
Shares of Family Dollar rose 7% Wednesday after the
retailer said it is gaining market share, but the company also lowered its
profit outlook.
Bad news for consumers cuts both ways for dollar
stores.
Family Dollar Stores Inc. FDO +2.15%said it
is gaining market share as cash-strapped customers spend a larger portion of
their disposable income in its discount stores, buying essential items such as
food, cleaning supplies and toiletries.
Shares of Family Dollar jumped 7% Wednesday, while
shares of rival Dollar General Corp. DG +1.59%rose
sharply as well.
The retailer's comments appeared to ease concerns among
some investors that dollar stores—which flourished in the wake of the
recession—could suffer if their customers "trade up" to more upscale stores as
income levels rise.
However, Family Dollar also lowered its profit outlook
for the third time in a year, citing continued pressure on the wallets of the
low-income consumers that frequent its stores.
"The bad economy is a double-edged sword for them," said
Anthony Chukumba, an analyst at BB&T Capital Markets. He said dollar stores
have benefited from people trading down to lower-priced goods, but their core
customers are more stretched and buying fewer items that carry higher profit
margins for the retailers.
Family Dollar said sales in the quarter ended June 1
rose 9% to $2.6 billion, though profit fell 3% to $120.9 million.
"This year is proving to be more challenging than we had
originally planned," Family Dollar Chief Executive Howard Levine told analysts on a conference call. "It's
tough out there right now for our customers, and their spending remains
constrained."
While consumers spent more on essentials, sales of
discretionary items like clothing and bedding remained weak and were affected by
unseasonably cold weather at the start of spring, Mr. Levine said. The Matthews,
N.C., company expects sales at stores open at least 12 months to rise just 2% in
its current quarter.
The company's shares nevertheless closed up $4.55 at
$68.50. Rival Dollar General's shares rose by $2.98 to $54.78.
Dollar stores became market darlings during the
recession and flourished by selling smaller packages of staple products that
catered to customers living from paycheck to paycheck. They have also benefited
from middle-income shoppers looking for bargains and people making "fill-in"
shopping trips outside of their regular grocery runs.
Investors have worried those factors could fade as
pockets of the economy show improvement. So far, that doesn't seem to be
happening. While a rebound in housing prices and a rising stock market are
lifting U.S. consumers' net wealth and confidence levels, those trends largely
haven't benefited low-income consumers, said Lynn Franco, an economist with The
Conference Board. Now, with gas prices on the rise again, these consumers may be
further pressured, Ms. Franco added.
Family Dollar and Dollar General have been altering
their merchandise mix to compete better with more-polished discounters and hang
on to customers once they start trading back up.
Dollar General attempted to expand its sales by
deepening its selection of brand-name products, but the product-expansion
strategy backfired. Too many shoppers bypassed the chain's private-brand
offerings, which carry higher profit margins, for bigger-name products like
allergy medication Claritin, which the retailer had begun offering in a variety
of sizes instead of just one.
Dollar General is now reversing course and going back to
its tried and true formula of offering a narrower, highly curated assortment of
cheap stuff.
The inclusion of more name brands and pricier products
may also have led to an increase in shoplifting. To combat that problem, Dollar
General, based in Goodlettsville, Tenn., now is adding an array of theft
deterrents, such as placing more expensive goods behind plastic doors that buzz
when opened for a long time.
Family Dollar, which has also added more merchandise and
name-brand products, has also seen a rise in theft and is adding additional
cameras in its stores, among other security measures.
"Dollar stores were all blue skies and now they are
partly cloudy to cloudy," said Charles Grom, retail analyst at Sterne Agee.

Target, Rite Aid and Publix Clamp Down on Extreme Couponers
By RESHMA KIRPALANI
Extreme couponer Katie Christner, a grade school teacher who lives in Franklin, Ky., no longer shops at Rite Aid.
After the national chain implemented restrictions on its coupon policies, Christner could not afford the regular sale prices.
"Once they implemented the policy changes, I stopped going to Rite Aid," said Christner, who co-manages the blog Extreme Southern Couponing and teaches Couponing 101 classes. "Originally, prices were high. If you can stack coupons and get rewards, then that was doable. But now you can't stack the coupons, so there really is no point."
Retailers around the country are pushing back against extreme couponers, who empty out store aisles by piling up on cheap deals. Rite Aid, Target and Publix have modified their coupon policies, restricting the number of store and manufacturers' coupons that shoppers can use per purchase.
But some extreme couponers are either finding ways to game the system or simply taking their purchasing dollars elsewhere, like Wal-Mart.
Currently, Rite Aid only accepts one buy-one-get-one-free (BOGO) coupon per each pair of items purchased. It may accept up to four identical coupons for the same number of qualifying items as long as there is sufficient stock to satisfy other customers. If the store is running low, managers have the right to restrict the quantity of sales.
"We have updated our policy so that all of our customers can take advantage of great value rather than small groups excessively taking advantage of them," Rite Aid spokesperson Eric Harkreader said.
Target, which has "seen an increase in coupon redemption," has clarified on its website that "BOGO coupons cannot be combined." Target spokesman Erika Winkels said "Target does accept one Target coupon and one manufacturer coupon on BOGO items."
According to a recent item in the Wall Street Journal blog SmartMoney, "previously, shoppers could combine BOGO offers to get both items in a pair free." While Winkels denies that claim, she said, "Target made some modifications to the policy on June 13, better spelling out for our guests what we accept in terms of the buy-one-get-one coupon."
As a modification to previous guidelines, Publix now accepts from a customer only one manufacturer's coupon and one from either its own or a competing store.
"Truthfully, before we didn't have a policy, we had guidelines, and they were interpreted in different ways so our customers were not having a consistent coupon experience at every store," Publix spokesperson Shannon Pattern said.
In an attempt to discourage extreme couponers who stockpile massive quantities of products, Publix has also given managers the discretion to limit the quantity of goods purchased if stores are running low.
"With extreme couponers, it's a matter of using 50 coupons to purchase 50 items, which creates the problem of clearing out the shelves," Pattern said. "We just need to make sure we limit the quantity so that we have enough products for everyone."
Nathan Engels, who operates the website WeUseCoupons.com, said, "If they tighten [coupon policies] too hard, people who are casual coupon users will be spiteful."

"We realized we were overspending and undersaving," Engels said. "[Clipping coupons] leads you into a life of frugality, which helps tremendously."
The Kentucky native, who attributes a 50 percent savings on his weekly grocery store bill to coupons, has found ways to work around the coupon restrictions to cash in on bargains: multiple transactions.
"You may have to go to the store twice a week instead of just once. You may have to bring your husband with you when you shop, if you really want to get 10 products," Engles said. "You can work within the policy but change your strategy a little bit."
Extreme couponer J'aime Kirlew, whose stint on the TLC series Extreme Couponing led to allegations of fraudulent coupon use, agrees.
"Restricting couponers to three or four like items at a store makes me have to shop a little more and shop more frequently and shop at multiple stores," Kirlew said.
Both extreme shoppers agree that stores with looser coupon policies, like Wal-Mart, will win out over those that implement restrictions by attracting more customers.
While other retailers curb their enthusiasm for coupons, Wal-Mart has eliminated per-transaction coupon limits and implemented an "ad match guarantee," in which they match products with lower advertised prices.
Christner, who frequents Wal-Mart and CVS, continues extreme couponing to save on her weekly food purchases. "I have a family of four and I don't get paid much money," she said. "I do it to save 40 to 60 percent on my weekly shopping experiences. That's the biggest bang that you'll get out of couponing."

Working Around the Restrictions

Private corporations intend to spy on you and gear marketing toward you in your very own living room, bedroom, or theatre in realtime through your Cable Box
Private corporations intend to spy on you and gear marketing toward you in your very own living room, bedroom, or theatre in realtime.

Verizon has entered a new realm of technology that can almost make your skin crawl.
The powerful communications giant has now invented and intends to market a cable box that knows exactly what is going on in the living room, or any room for that matter. In fact it knows if you are cuddling with your partner, or even aroused as it can taylor advertisements to the consumer in a realtime environment.
For instance, if the consumer or viewer(s) are watching a sexy scene in the latest R rated Hollywood blockbuster movie, a “condom” commercial could pop-up.
The technology incorporates motion sensors, thermal cameras, and microphones to spy on mindless or unaware participants.
Other corporations venture into this realm as well.
Damien Gayle reports, “Microsoft recently registered a patent for technology to allow its Kinect motion sensor to figure out how many people are in front of it then stop playback if it detected more people than the copyright terms allowed. Google TV proposed a similar patent that would use video and audio recording devices to do the same…. And Comcast in 2008 patented a monitoring technology that would recommend content to users based on people it recognised in the room.”
This technology is scary to say the least and offers an extension to internet marketing and ads that target the consumers interests online bringing them directly into your room.
Some would say this is a major invasion of privacy, while others view the technology as a convenience.
These systems will eventually work in conjunction with a massive DHS control grid, along with TSA scanners at airports and checkpoints throughout the country in what looks to be a massive incremental plan to institute a police state in America.
