I am sure this comes as no surprise, but K-mart has pulled the $10/$20 coupon! While I am hearing TONS of different reports, it appears that this coupon was only intended to be used in the New York and Chicago areas.

Too often, Reporting Kmart deals turns into a circus because it’s hard to find someone at their Corporate Office who knows what they are doing and clearly this was a mistake by Kmart, or one of their employees who included “Valid at all Kmart locations”  instead of “Valid in New York and Chicago ONLY”.

Sorry to those of you who got accused of using a fraudulent coupon by Kmart employees and managers. This was NOT a fraudulent coupon. Now that they have corrected the coupon to say Only Valid in Chicago and New York, using it in another region would be “fraudulent”- but it was completely legitimate before the correction was made.

What do you think, worth the trouble or a waste of a deal?

ps. have I ever mentioned I used to work at Kmart is highschool? maybe I shouldn’t be admitting that…

This is a pdf coupon that has no print limit; you can even save it to your computer.

Is it a legitimate coupon?   It has all the red flags of a fake, but is hosted on the Kmart site, so for now we’ll operate under the assumption that it is legitimate.  The coupon states, “Valid at all Kmart store locations”.

My guess, this coupon will work for most of us NOW, but will not continue to be accepted through the printed expiration 5/22.  At any rate, print this sucker now!  I’m headed to Kmart to buy diapers tonight!
