Walmart has not only updated their Coupon policy HERE, but they also updated their Price Matchups Policy so there can be no questions about what they do or do not price match.
I would recommend printing the Walmart coupon policy off directly from the Walmart Website, as well as their new Price Matching Policy.
Here are the details on the new policy:
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.
We gladly match the price in the following types of ads:*
- Buy one, get one free ads with a specified price
- Example: Buy one for $2.49, get one free (BOGO)
- Competitors’ ads that feature a specific item for a specified price.
- Preferred shopping card prices for specific items that are in a printed ad.
- For fresh produce and meat items when the price is offered in the same unit type (lb. for lb.; each for each)
*The following are guidelines and limitations:
- We will match any local competitor’s advertised price.
- We do not require customers to have the ad with them to honor a competitor’s ad.
- Items purchased must be identical to the ad (size, quantity, brand, flavor, color, etc.)
We DO NOT match the price in the following types of competitor ads:
- Items that require a separate purchase to get the ad price
- example: “Buy [item A] to get [item B] for $C”
- Items with no actual price that require a purchase to get free product
- example: “Buy both [items A & B] to get [item C] for free”
- Items that require a purchase to get a competitors’ gift card
- example: “Buy [item A] to get a $B gift card
- Buy one, get one free (BOGO) ads with no actual price given
- Going out of business or closeout prices
- Percentage off
- example: “All mascara, 40% off”
- Competitors’ private label price promotions
We do not honor:
- Ads when the actual price for items cannot be determined.
- Internet pricing
- Misprinted ad prices of other retailers
- Competitor ads from outside of the store’s local trade territory
- It is a store manager’s discretion as to what defines a territory.
- “Going out of business” sales or “close out” prices

Hey, Angie! Me, too. I just printed it out, so they can’t say they don’t know about it!
It’s a shame Walmart won’t ever match their own internet prices.
um the whole point of the internet price is that less people have to touch it to get it to you…which is why it costs less in the first place.
Very fair and very clear
Awesome! Thanks for posting. You made my day! I suggest everyone who goes to Walmart often print it out and keep it with you!!!!
Funny…. You don’t have to have the ad with you… I could make up some random BS on something and the cashier would never know… cause I don’t need the ad to prove it.
actually all the registers have the ads at them…so no, you can’t.
Now do I have to say something to the cashier about my overage? The one time I used 5 3.00 off Nivea coups and one for rayovac batteries and I had to pay 1.86 in tax.Oh the coup for the batteries was a 1.00 off and the batteries were .97 cents.Now is it because I live in the great state of New york that I have to pay tax regardless?
@Jolene, same thing happens here in Illinois
I’ve always had to pay the tax on the original price of the item
I am a little misunderstood on something. It says they will not take competitors double or triple coupons on their policy that I printed out. Last night I went to get milk, and three people in front of me were using double coupons from the Albertson’s twice the value deal.
I only dont understand one thing, in the policy, under the manuf. coupon rules it states that “coupon could not be duplicated” does that mean that the coupon cannot be copied or does it mean that the cooupon can not be used twice throught the entire purchase, even if it is on seperate items..?
