Counterfeit Coupon Alert: $2/2 Johnson & Johnson products

Update: The general consensus now is that no one knows what's up with this coupon! It may or may not be counterfeit. Most people report that they are charged $2 when they use it, instead of the coupon deducting $2. Whatever the case, this coupon appears to have been messed up from the beginning. It is probably wise to not use it.

If you printed the coupon pictured above when it was available, this coupon has been added to the Coupon Information Corporation's list of counterfeit coupons over the weekend.

It's honestly hard to tell what happened with this one. It was available through a Bricks' link and appeared to be legitimate in every way. Unfortunately, that does not seem to be the case now. {I found one spelling mistake on mine, under the information for the retailer. It says "face balue" instead of "face value." This might be the number one indicator that this is a fake coupon.}

I entered my coupon's code at veri-fi.com and it indicated that my coupon is valid. However, given the issues with this coupon, I would advise you to destroy this coupon, instead of redeeming it. If your coupon (and mine) is actually a counterfeit coupon, stores will not reimbursed for them. When this happens, everyone is hurt.

Please remember to use coupons wisely. Coupons should never be copied and faked in any way. Counterfeit coupons will only cause problems - for the people who use them the right way.

Thanks, Jeri, for this important information!
