Coupon exclusions are a delicate balance. When you exclude too few things, customers take advantage of the loopholes, like when Best Buy e-mailed a $50 off $100 purchase gift card and forgot to exclude gift cards. If you exclude too many things, customers will probably not bother to use the coupon at all, since they can’t tell what they can use it for.
$10 off a $20 purchase is a very good coupon, and it isn’t even limited to only certain markets like the infamous Kmart Renaissance coupon disaster of 2010. Mouse Print did the blessed work of sharing the full text of the exclusions. They confuse us.
Most of these exclusions make sense: prescriptions, prior purchases, and gift cards are standard exclusions for coupons. Some of these items are baffling, though: why 2.5 oz mini jar candles specifically? Why do they exclude fans?
