WalMart Bans Extreme Couponer

She was banned from every Walmart in the United States for life, and it was all because of an argument over coupons. April Cuevas says Walmart has started "cracking down" on extreme couponers like herself who want to use coupons from other stores to save money. Cuevas says she was told that Walmart's "Ad Match" policy had changed late last week, and asked to speak with a store manager so she could better understand why. She decided to record the interchange -- which quickly became an argument -- with her iPhone. She says the action wasn't welcomed by the Walmart manager, who slapped her hand away and told her to pay the full price of her groceries or leave. Which she did. That's when things got weird/Fox12Idaho. More here. H/T: Sam Crawford. (AP file photo)

Question: Did Nampa WalMart do the right thing by banning an extreme couponer for life in all of its stores?
