there will be a notice that the digital coupon is valid for one only of the item. If you purchase multiples, the second and subsequent items could be at full price. It comes down to a reading test. Be sure to always check for this. I see it more and more, and always at the warehouse stores such as BJs. Don't have a Costco membership, so am not positive about their rules - or Sam's either.

Often the "sale" just brings the cost down to a normal price. I expect what they're really doing is selling your data. Gaugamela Sep 29 #5
