cookinmummy and sinderella, I'd love to be part of this is you dont mind, I really need to get my saving money act together!

Not quite sure what you have in mind, but I'm interested, too. Looking at what Vicky said about coupons, I don't think that would work for me - my local Tesco is very iffy about accepting coupons - sometimes they will and sometimes they won't. Also, I don't think there's any way I could get my hands on the quantities mentioned here! Would appreciate any tips, though.

You need to read the Tesco thread and other sites such as www.paidtoshop.co.uk to learn the loopholes on the Tesco system.

We went to Turkey all inclusive for almost free this year, and I am busy converting vouchers to book again for next year which will be totally free.

You need to find willing assistants to scan all the stuff and be prepared for some who won't scan things. I did some grocery shopping including a pack of Pampers nappies and the lady and the till supervisor refused to accept a Huggies coupon. This was the only money off coupon I was using.

Ironically she accepted loads of points on Huggies nappies coupons which worked on the Pampers.

Yeah rightt like I'm missing out on this....if I can;t MS for a while I might as well make some dosh another way. Must admit I used to buy Tesco vouchers on E-bay. If you pay with the card fob you get the name isn't on there and they don't refuse to take it. I have enough vouchers for a week at Haven but definetely not to Turkey - I am so in awe. Can someone PM me otherwise I'll PM one of you (oh err!!) I actually have no MS jobs at all for this week. I've been really good. Done a few surveys but getting withdrawal symptoms already.

Right I have pm'd bob and ellie!;)

System

This Tesco thing sounds fab, must get working on this one, if anyone else has any tips can you pm me too pls? I did wonder if it was worth trying to use the self-scan check-outs to use coupons, not that I've got around to ever trying them yet with two littlies in tow!
