Went our local HF to purchase some things and had a coupon for an item but was told that the coupon is only good for next weekend. Fair enough, my bad.

I had a 20% off coupon any way and asked that it be used for the same item (price was virtually the same as the other coupon would have been). The Manager says "no, cant do it?"" Why" I ask? He states the computer wont let him use it for the item I wanted? WTF?

The coupon states its good for all merchandise at normal price. The item was at normal price??? Just gimmicks. I told the pinhead he could keep the full cart of *** I was going to purchase.

They don't expect folks to walk out.

Just a coupon shell game. Yeah, I was pissed.

Reason of review: Not accepting valid coupons.

Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution.

Harbor Freight Tools Cons: Coupon games.

Location: Murrieta, California

Rafael, have you seen how small the print on the coupons for exceptions? I went in with a mailer that had a coupon on the front with no exceptions and it said valid on a particular date but when I tried to use it they said it wasn't a coupon because it didn't have a bar code and the real coupon was on the back of the 20 or so page mailer.

There is an intent to deceive at hft. It's like the mailers you get from dealerships except some ar legit and some bogus.

If you read the coupon, there is a list of items of which a 20% coupon will not work. Compressors, Floor Jacks, welders, and several other items.

It also states that you cannot use two coupons on the same item.

So if the item you wanted to use the 20% on was one of the restricted items, the store manager was correct. I wouldn't call it a shell game....it's just a matter of taking the time to read rather than assume
