    See post #1 - however the copies of the Times you buy in WHS are cellophane wrapped and the book IS inside - not sure if there is a coupon as well.

    The Daily Record is supposed to have a voucher for a free A1 size Spongebob/Avatar poster, to be collected from Asda today only.

    They're running offers to collect from Asda all week: tomorrow it's a Dora stationery set, Thursday a Spongebob keyring, and Friday a Spongebob/Avatar tattoo sheet.

    There is an option to send off for the gifts (£1.50 P&P), but you need a full set of vouchers for that, including yesterday's. Otherwise just collect on the day at CS in a Scottish Asda store.

    There is a coupon too. My Times was not in cellophane and I just asked at the desk when I bought the paper and they gave me the book (didn't have to fill in the coupon).

    As well as posting on MSE, I am also a member on www.paidtoshop.co.uk, and I see that a member there has put out a plea for a leaflet that was in the Daily Mail last weekend:

    If any MSE member can help please look for the thread 'Daily Mail Readers' on paid to shop, and if you are a member please send a pm to the poster. I don't know if she is a member on here, so if it's easier please pm me and I will pass your message on asap, I will check my inbox here later or tomorrow.

    Thanks fellow couponers!
