If you were one of the lucky ones that got the $5 Kingsford coupon yesterday, then were frustrated that you might have been able to use it, there is a little help coming!
Last night trying to figure out why they wouldn’t scan I, like many of you were on Facebook and saw where Kingsford accused Coupons.com of basically putting out a false coupon:
We apologize about the confusion for the earlier coupons. They were unsolicited and not covered by us.
Ummmm…. Hang on.
Coupons.com is THE MOST reputable coupon printing site out there. That is why we use it and promote it all the time, because I do not have to worry if a coupon is legit from them. I figured I would wait until today to see what the fallout was from their accusation. Plus it is always fun to watch the drama when a company does something like that.
Today, on their Facebook page, they released this statement:
Hello Kingsford fans! We’d like to clear up any confusion regarding coupons. So sorry it took us a while to get to the bottom of this mystery! Yesterday, a number of coupon offers were posted by third parties to our Facebook Wall. While we can’t verify the legitimacy of them all, we can confirm that the $5 Kingsford coupon from Coupons.com was legitimate and will be honored. Unfortunately, the link has now been taken down because all available coupons were downloaded.
That is more like it! No worries, if you got the coupon from Coupons.com yesterday there is nothing wrong with your coupon. If you are ever worried you can follow the directions on your printable coupon to a company called Veri-Fi and make sure it is legit!
