I used the 10% off coupon this weeked for the Led Zeppelin DVD. After I got home I looked at the receipt and noticed that I paid more for the DVD by using the coupon.

The price on the DVD was marked $24.99. I paid for the DVD by using two $5 Reward Zone certificates, a $10 gift card, and a couple of dollars and change. On the receipt it shows the following:

Reg. 24.99 With 10% Off
Reg. 19.99 With 10.00 RZ Cert

I was charged the $24.99 price minus 10%. Therefore, I was charged $22.49 by using the coupon. If I had not used the coupon it looks like the price would have been $19.99. If this is the case then these coupons are a gimmick if you buy something that is already on sale.
