BOGO or B1G1 = Buy One, Get One Free

Catalina (or Cat) = Checkout Coupon (prints at the register)

DND = Do Not Double

ECB = Extra Care Bucks (CVS store rewards)

ETS = Excludes Trial Size; this wording on a coupon means that it may not be used to buy small trial or travel size products

Exp. = expiration date (when the coupon or offer expires)

GM = General Mills coupon insert

Insert = A coupon booklet found in the Sunday newspaper

MFG, MQ or Manu = manufacturer coupon

MIR = Mail-in Rebate
