Thank you very much! Let me know if you ever have questions…I try to be pretty responsive to any questions that crop up in the comments or on my Facebook page.

I’m not sure where I saw the link to your ethics post, but I read it (and discovered your site) today. I am very impressed by the posts I’ve read so far, and I like that you give quick guidelines within the deals post; I now know where to point my friends who are new to couponing!

Thanks for coming back and clarifying. The part of your comment “let’s keep everyone honest” bothered me most because it seemed to suggest I was encouraging my readers do otherwise.

In case you’re unaware, I take a pretty strong ethics stance…you can access my ethics policy here: http://thecouponproject.com/coupon-ethics

Thanks for bringing the issue to my attention, coupon has been removed.

Angela, it never dawned on me that you would have done so intentionally – I was only stating why I thought it should be removed. For what it’s worth, I’ve noticed this coupon referenced before on other sites, and after not being careful in reviewing it and getting turned down at the checkstand, I’ve since requested that it not be referenced on other sites as well… so far you’re the only one to actually pull it! Hey, I wish it DID work as I love olives!

Angela, a little benefit of the doubt would have been nice on your part. I would never intentionally post a coupon knowing it was the wrong one.

According to the first screen, it did say $1 off ANY 2 which is how it has been for months. Only after your comment did I click through and realize they’d changed the wording. I hope you can see how I easily made this error.

Here’s the exact wording: “Buy any Lindsay Re-closeables Item and Get a Second One Free”

I believe that coupon says ANY The facebook coupon is for recloseable olives

Lindsay olive coupon is NOT for the kind in the sale – is only for the reclosable packaging. Let’s keep everyone honest and remove that item, thanks.
