Harbor Freight coupons

[a1bummer]

So I went to the local Harbor Freight this morning on my way home from work. I pick up a flyer advertising an upcoming sale. 50% off sale, Tues, Oct. 18th - Mon, Oct. 31st.. And on that flyer there are also coupons that say they are valid through 10/31/11 in bold type. Now wouldn't you think the coupons would me valid from the time they are distributed until said expiration date? Or would you assume the coupons are only valid during the sale that is advertised on the same flyer?

I have found that if you read the fine print on the coupon it tells exactly when it is good.

 

But then on the other hand I have found that with the right set of puppy dog eyes, and my best smile for the girl at the register, she will still accept my out of date coupons.
