I just heard that Hobby Lobby Is Getting Rid of Their 40% off Coupon and I’m Not Happy About It!

Look, I love Hobby Lobby but only because they have always had unique things I couldn’t find anywhere else oh and because they let me use a 40% off coupon.

Here’s the thing – I am a huge couponer and money saver. In fact, that’s where I started my career 10 years ago – a coupon blog.

So, when I find out a store is no longer accepting coupons, it sort of makes me salty because who doesn’t want to save money on cute stuff? NOBODY!

Yes, Hobby Lobby has amazing and unique things but unless it’s on sale or could have a coupon used on it – it’s expensive.

There is a thread going around on Reddit right now that has Hobby Lobby employees commenting on it.

Apparently, employees were given a memo about it a few days ago.

So, when will the coupons stop?

According to a reply directly from the Hobby Lobby Facebook Page (this is an actual screenshot I took), it will be February 28, 2020.

According to employees, they were that if a customer asks why they no longer offer a coupon, they are to respond:

“We are giving you so many great deals on thousands of items throughout the entire store.”

Yikes!

While I am not happy they are getting rid of the coupon, I truly hope they reevaluate as customers express their concerns.

I also hope they entirely adjust their pricing because I can’t imagine having to pay 40% more for something especially right now.

Guess all the more reason to save some money and not shop at all! Ha 😉

Popular coupon is being discontinued Feb. 28

Hobby Lobby confirmed a rumor on Wednesday that their 40%-off coupons are going the way of the dodo bird.

Officials with the retail chain responded to a Facebook post saying that as of Feb. 28, Hobby Lobby will no longer be offering the popular coupon in stores or online.

“By making this decision, we are intensifying our efforts to discount thousands of items every day. This will offer a better value instead of providing a discount on only one item with the coupon,” officials said.

This comment didn’t sit well with the majority of social media users who responded with comments calling the decision “dumb.”

Hobby Lobby enthusiasts are likely familiar with the discount which gives shoppers a 40% discount off any one item at regular price, once a week, with a few exceptions.

“It is always our intent to provide you with beyond compare service, great prices and the best selection,” Hobby Lobby officials said on Facebook. “We appreciate your understanding during this period of transition and thank you for your continued business.”

There are currently more than 900 retail Hobby Lobby stores including seven in the San Antonio area.

The company has not specified what changes shoppers can expect after the coupon is discontinued.
