I opted to go through self checkout. I did two (small) transactions of the food without problems and took them to the car. I came back in and did the two seperate soda deals. Since I had an easy time in the self checkout I went there again. Big mistake! The cashier decides that I can no longer use the Fresh & Easy $5/$20 coupon. She goes on to say that it is "one per family". I politely asked her if I could see the policy. I read it and re-read it. It states "yadda, yadda, yadda...one per order". She said that per order was the same as per family. What? I explained to her that customers are told that order is the same as transaction. She decided to "allow" it to go through as if she was doing me a favor. Whatever. I'm glad I checked my receipt, she charged me for a "Gift Basket" instead of taking off a Competitor Coupon. This was a $4 error. Before I left the store I went up to CS and I was handed $4 without a blink of an eye.
