Many of you may have received or just received coupons in the mail from Meijer. I am loving all of the FREE coupons to use at Meijer.
These coupons are for Meijer, and they are store coupons. This means you can stack these coupons with manufacturer coupons.
This is what my coupons look like (I get new ones each month):
I love that Meijer is doing this. I’ve been receiving these coupons for several months now. (they come at the beginning of each month)
***updated 3/18/2021**
Be sure to read the following original information about receiving these coupons. However, I do want to make a note that Meijer started sending these same types of coupons to your mPerk account instead of via mail. This started back in 2019, and I’ve seen these hand-picked offers in my account consistently. I still get the paper ones, but I also get them in my mPerk account. So if you have or used to get the hand-picked paper coupons, check your mPerk account to see if they are there instead.
So, the question everyone wants to know, how do you get free coupons from Meijer?
- Well, the answer initially seemed to be pretty straightforward. It (appears to be) tied to your mPerk account. This is why I have been preaching for years, always, always, always put in your mPerk information in when you shop at Meijer (and the gas stations). Even if you are only buying a pack of gum, their system (and other store reward programs) are tracking the way you shop.
You may ask, I am not receiving these free coupons from Meijer.
- Go into your mPerkaccount, in your profile to make sure your address information is in there and up-to-date. You can go under My Account- Shipping- And add your address there. However, keep in mind that just by adding your address to your mPerk account guarantees you will start receiving them. Keep reading to see what I mean.
Well, I did that, and I am still not receiving them.
**updated** After many of you have commented saying you have done everything, but you are still not getting the coupons, I decided to reach out to Meijer to see exactly how these hand-selected coupons work. Here’s what they said:
From Meijer: These are being sent out monthly, and the customers who are targeted vary from month to month. You are correct that the offers are based on what customers are buying. The program targets people who are in mPerks and people that are not, again, it varies month to month.
A question I asked them,”this keeps coming up in from my readers- they are saying that they may not get them, but their neighbors do. Is there a rhyme or reason for this?”
From Meijer: Currently, we are only communicating with about 2 million of our 11 plus million database of customers. We are using this time as a test and learn environment. We find the most relevant offers for each customer. {and before people grab their pitchforks and get upset about this, this is how BETA programs work. Everyone does not get the opportunity to participate in test/beta programs.}
**This means you may get them ONE month and NOT get them again! Again, this is part of a TEST system***
Conclusion: This is still in TEST mode for Meijer. Here’s how you can help if you ARE getting them:
- USE them!
- Let Meijer know you love the hand-selected coupons. (or if you dislike them, I guess you can tell them that as well).
- Continue to put in your mPerk information when you check-out.
And will these hand-picked coupons eventually go out to all customers?Not at this time.
- From what I have gathered (and from what many of you have stated in our Meijer group), they have been sending these out in various regions/batches. So if your information is in there, they may not have got to your region yet. *this continues to be true since this is a TEST for Meijer as they learn what their shoppers need/want.
- The other reason why you may not be receiving them is when is the last time you shopped at Meijer? If it’s been a long time, that could be why you have not received the free coupons.
- Also, if you were shopping at Meijer, but did not input your mPerk information at the register, that could be another reason why you have not received the free coupons.
What I will say for you to do is this:
- Keep plugging in your mPerk information at the register
- Make sure your address and information is updated in the Meijer mPerk account
- Have patience– maybe Meijer has not got to your region yet.
- Again, this is still in test mode for Meijer. It may stay around; it may not.
What type of coupons are people receiving?
Everyone is going to get DIFFERENT coupons. Why? It’s based on how YOU shop!
My conclusion:
After hearing from Meijer, my conclusion is this- continue to use your Meijer mPerk account, as well as to shop at Meijer for things you need. Also, make sure your information is updated on your mPerk account. Overall, this is still in test mode for Meijer, so everyone will not get them. Unfortunately, when BETA programs happen, everyone does not get them. Let’s continue to give Meijer positive feedback and encouragement so everyone will get them, AND they keep this program!
**** if you are not getting them and you did everything, have PATIENCE!! Meijer clearly told us that they are only sending these out to a percentage of their customers. Hopefully, this program will stay, and everyone will get them. But at this time, they are NOT sending them to every Meijer shopper.
