  2. Jodi says:

    Will the Ballpark coupon double? I think is says DND on it. That would be great if it does!

    • Carrie Rocha says:

      Jodi – Good question. I think it will double. I do believe in the ethical use of coupons and have asked cashiers about coupons that say “do not double.” The answer I have gotten is “if the register allows it, then we will honor it at doubled value.” The register at Rainbow doubles the first five that are scanned and under $1 in value, period. But, honesty is always the best policy and I’d encourage you to ask a clerk and see what they say. Hope that helps. –Carrie
