a couple of weeks ago (having already gotton one coupon), I was explicitly
informed that I wouldn't get a coupon for a purchase made with a coupon.

That makes more sense to me. The two times I've used coupons, I've gotten
more coupons. Probably my store is not well-informed about the policy.

since they only give you/stamp one card regardless of total. ...

Another case where my store probably did it wrong. I did get a coupon per $100.

My store was lax in yet another way; the employees couldn't agree on whether
they could accept multiple partially validated coupons, but in the end took
them. I imagine the confusion will be short-lived.
