I had this exact same experience trying to buy an iron at JoAnns. Honestly, I get so frustrated with their coupons. I've used them plenty, but there have been plenty I've arrived at the cashier and been told I couldn't use them for some fine print reason. When that happens, I leave the item with the cashier in protest.

A good thing about JoAnn's coupon is that it can be used on books or magazines if they aren't on sale or already on discount. Last summer I was at Michael's and found out I couldn't use my %off coupon for a pattern book, but later at JoAnn's I found they did allow it for books/mags.

Yay, it wasn't, BUT, in the fine print, irons are excluded from using the coupon. I thought for sure someone here on the board had said they bought an iron using a coupon. Is there a chance that a coupon will come available sometime that will allow me to use it for an iron, or are all their coupons basically the same? Thanks for your help.

I will not buy a Rowenta as I feel they are over-priced and you are paying for the brand. There are many irons out there just as good for less money. I have had a cheap one from Target for years and it works great with no leaking. My opinion here is save some money with another brand without a coupon.

Wow, I did not know that joanns honored Michales coupons.

The reason I know is that I used a Michaels coupon at JoAnns and the computer woud not take it because they did not sell it at Michaels. But if JoAnns is close to you it is worth a try. |
I am going to see if the OKC Joann's does this. (If so, they sure keep it a secret!)

I have also had a regular sized Rowenta, and had a terrible experience with it, all the leaking etc... The only reason I was considering the travel iron is that I want a small iron to use next to my sewing machine, and everything I read about the mini craft irons is not so good, they don't seem to heat up enough. Since my intention was not to ever put water in the small Rowenta I was thinking it might not have the issues that were so irritating with the full size iron, I had in the past. Thank you all for your input with this issue, I will keep my eye open for that "special coupon" that will actually work for something I need!!
