I got Robotech Complete, 20 dollar psn card, movies and a tv show. the wife got a bunch of girly things and oh yeah, a ninja turtle LOL.

I gave one of the toys to a kid on the way out of the store and gonna give out the rest for good karma points.
That awesome. I been wanting to get Killzone Mercenary and I think I'll get it this way. There's a 5 coupon limit? It doesn't say it anywhere.

That is what the OP said, I did not want to push my luck. One Wal Mart without self check a cashier wouldnt run them but another did LOL. The self check though is a must. Saves the crap you may run into.

You can but any toy as long as it's a Fisher price toy. The coupon counts. The limit to 5 is due to the self checkout locking up if you use more.

I'm glad I was able to help you all our.

We just finished clearing out the other Walmart in the neighboring town.

Hmm this seems like a loophole in the automated check out system.

The coupon does say a $25 purchase minimum and limit 1 coupon per purchase.

The Imaginext figures for $2.97.

It may be a loophole, but the clerks at our local stores are aware of and allowing as long the person is putting the required amount if coupons the machine after the transaction. Apparently, some people were scanning one coupon multiple times and putting blank slips of paper in the machine.

So does that mean the coupons need to get cut out?

They don't need be exact, your can probably just fold them to fit in the machine. But I would take a minute to cut them.
