Tips for Using Checkout 51

  • Their sales cycle runs Thursday through Wednesday. So, if you see an offer on a Friday, you will need to purchase and redeem that offer by the next week Wednesday.
  • You have to submit your receipt for the offers during the week when the offer is available.
  • There are a limited number of offers available, so be sure the deal you are looking for is still available before you do your shopping and then immediately upload your receipt.
  • You are limited to ONE offer per person.
  • You can only use a receipt once. If you have multiple offers on one receipt, you can choose all of the offers you are redeeming after you upload your receipt.
  • You CAN use coupons with Check 51 deals!!
