Rainbow Foods can't be found everywhere, but you can't swing a cat without hitting one in Minneapolis. You know its true people. Since I don't have a Rainbow Foods in my state I've not ever taken a peek at what they offer, but I have a new coupon partner in crime so now is the time to look into this regional grocer.
After checking out several blogs and Rainbow Foods website (which is kind of crappy), I have decided to combine the information as best as I can here.
Basics of Their Policies:
1. You can double up to 5 $1 coupons on a required $25 spent (before coupons) so you can save $10 on $25 Wednesdays and Saturdays. *This is super excited for me because no stores double where I am** Note that you can double any coupon where the bar code starts with a '5'
2. No expired coupons accepted.
3. Can use a Rainbow Store Coupon AND a manufacturer coupon on the same item for extra savings.
4. Internet coupons are allowed (although exactly what can be used is a bit controversial) but the concenus seems to be you can't use any B1G1 or Free coupons.
5. Can only use a coupon that is equal to or less than the item purchased no overages given.
6. If you use your own bags you receive a $.05 reduction per bag.
7. You can not use two coupons with B1G1, in other words, if you have a B1G1 you can't use another coupon on your free item.

I tried to find the coupon policy on the home site with no luck. But the above link is pretty good, although you can't take it with you to show the cashier.
Let's talk about the Roundy's Card. This is completely alien to me but from what I gather, you can use this awesome card when you shop and your dollars give you credit on gas and there are some deals where you have to have a Roundy's Card in order to get the savings. This little card can save you some Big Bucks, but its explanation is best left to someone who knows so check out the following link for the do's and don'ts with the in's and out's for this card:
Now that you've got the basics, here is a great link to the weekly deals so you can match your coupons up with the sales and print out your list:
Well, there you have it Rainbow Foods in a nutshell. Happy Shopping!!
