Just curious if any of you have tried going through the self checkouts like at Wal-Mart or Bi-Lo and had successful attempts at using printed coupons?
A friend of mine just got me started on collecting coupons and told me Wal Mart and Bi Lo would not take printed coupons only our local Food Lion.

The self checkouts at our Albertson's take them as long as they scan.

If you scan the coupons at a self checkout, what do you do with them? Do you have to have the lady at the podium come over when you pay or what? I haven't tried it yet. I tried to buy a gift card at our walmart and the lady gave me a bunch of crap about it.

Our self checkouts take them, but they closed down our self checkouts at WM and said that everyone was closing them (this was 2 months ago) I would really like to know if "everyone" is closing them.

They have not closed them at the Lapeer, MI location, but the one in Caro, MI never installed them, even after they upgraded to a SuperWalmart.
The coupons that you scan at the self checkout goes into a slot. It seems that I have had to hand them to the 'cashier' watching the checkouts before too, but the last time I used them, it told me to 'insert coupons into slot'. That was easy!

There is a coupon slot on the machine that you put them in. :)

The self checkouts at the BJ's warehouse and Costco by me both let me use them.

Can you use coupons at Sam's too? I just assumed that none of those places took coupons.
