I suppose the manager has a lot to do it, and also how much competition is in the area. I'm also starting to believe that the individual employees have a hand in this. I wish I had a smartphone.
I know that when I went to Hancock Fabrics I had to have them ring me up separtley and then use my 15% senior citizen discount for each one. I saved a lot. It's set up in the register on how they can apply the discount; my store won't allow employees to do certain multiple discounts. It depends on how the coupon reads.
