These fivechanges are pretty wide-sweeping, but here are the most notable changes found on the Walmart website:

Shoppers (at one point) were previously able to stack coupons for a single item.

2. Walmart No Longer Accepts Expired Coupons

Expired coupons will no longer be accepted, by the way. They say that "under no circumstance" will shoppers be able to use an expired coupon.

1. Walmart Managers Are No Longer Able to Override Coupons

Previously, store employees (which seemed to be managers) were able to override the cash register to accept your coupon if they chose.

This will no longer be an option, meaning if it's expired or the scanner doesn't work with your coupon, you won't be able to use it.

We're all human, right? Sometimes you may have tried to use a coupon a day or two after it expired, and a kind employee may have been able to help. That's no longer the case.

These policies appear to be in effect at all stores across the state, so if you're shopping at a Walmart store... be kind to the employees.
