Most coupons will double, even the coupons that say "do not double". Yes, really. Most stores that double coupons have programmed thier registers to automatically double coupons up to a certain value. At my local Kroger, they double coupons up to .60 each. That means a .60 coupon is actually worth $1.20 when it doubles. This is why a .60 coupon can be more valuable than a .75 or $1 coupon at times.
If a coupon says "do not double", look at the barcode on the coupon. Does one of them start with a five? It will be a small five that is in the corner of the bar code. If it starts with a five, most times the register will double the coupon anyway.
There are certain stores that will run promotions to double coupons (when normally they would not double coupons on a daily basis) and I know that a certain chain grocery store that is more prominent on the east coast will run a promotion to triple coupons. So, always keep your eyes open for special promotions at your local stores!
