I received a 25 % off coupon for JoAnns in my email account but I don't have a printer that is working right now, so I shot a photo of it with my cell phone and drove off to the store to see if it would ''work''.......no problem!! The clerk just keyed in the squew numbers and 25% was taken off my total. Along with a 50% off coupon for 8 yards of Halloween fabric ( not on sale!! ) and a bunch of summer clearence at 70% off....it was a very good day. Oh yea, FQ were still 99 cents!!

Thanks for the info. I hope mine does the same. I hate wasting paper if I don't have to.

That is so cool! Do you need an android/smart phone or will just a regular phone with internet access work?

I just used my plain jane phone....not the fancy phone that my daughter has. Shot the photo of the entire coupon and then I shot a second photo closer up, of just the bar code so it would be easier to read. The clerk had not an ounce of trouble and I did a little happy dance.....spent 42 and saved over 50 dollars!!!!

How do you get them to send it to your phone?

I downloaded a free app and got those coupons. That is pretty cool, but I have yet to use one. Maybe one night this week!
