I* think I am being thick. I get to open with windows picture and fax viewer and then I get confused. Where are the instructions? Mine just opens.

Thanks.

ok....you are quite right... I should have said follow the “prompts” not the “instructions”
lets try again....
after opening with Windows picture and fax viewer,
1. if you have a number of pictures on view select the picture/coupon you want by clicking on the box beside it.

1. press the print icon at the bottom(looks like a printer), or press CTRL+P
2. press “next”
3. select your printer (if you have more than one) you may also want to go into printer preferences and change the layout to “landscape” and press “next”
4. on the available layouts screen scroll down until you get to the 3.5 x 5 in prints
5. change the number of times to use each picture to 4, press "next"

Has anyone used the Mitchum half price coupons on TESCO self scan? I tried on boots' self scan its works fine, but cannot scan on TESCO.

No it will not normally scan for me at Tesco, but the SAs have ALWAYS been kind enough to manually enter it for me. If you want to use the self scan you could always google " barcode generator", open one of the free on-line programs and print a nice clear barcode on the reverse of your coupon!!

Thanks very much for the detailed instructions but I still can't get it to work on my computer. Any chance you could post a link to your pdf multiprints? Don't want to sound cheeky but that would be extremely helpful.

sorry gratefulone....I haven't got any links to offer you other than the ones people have already been kind enough to stick on this forum. If you say at what point it is not working on your computer, others may have the same problem, and I'll help as much as I can, but I am not a PC geek!!;)

save the files and then re-open them with the windows fax-viewer and follow previous instructions

I was in my local Tesco earlier and saw a display for Colgate oral health month, there was a pile of leaflets with a MOC for 25p off Colgate Total Products. There were also a pile of goodie bags for kids, in the bag was a pencil, a rubber, a sticker, a chart to mark when kids have brushed their teeth and 2 MOCs for 30p off Smiles toothpaste.

My mam told me there was an article in the paper the other day written by our fabulous leader :money: that said that using coupons for items we haven't bought is fraud, and we should only use them on staffed tills.

I didn't see it, and haven't found anything on here about it. Can anyone shed any light?

It seems odd I haven't seen anything online about it, and can't see how the SS tills are any different, unless you were abusing the policy using more than one identical coupon.

Anyone know anything?

I think it could be to do with the fact that self scan tills can not distinguish whether it is for Tesco, asda, etc, it just acknowledges the amount, hense someone could put a £50 self scan through, and if the till is not preset to beep at x amount of vouchers, then they could put in £50 of asda vouchers........bang Tesco loses out.

Hi there is a new bodyform coupons available until 30/11/08 could somebody post it in (No Chat) please maybe 5/6 in a page. I love to do it, but I don't know how and I have downloaded it from another forum.

Btw, Tesco Oak Tree Lane no longer accept coupons that does not scan. So don't bother going to Oak Tree Lane now... unless u live near by.

Hi
I am completely new to this particular forum and would appreciate any guidance.

Years ago I used coupons from newspapers/magazines but rarely buy these now. I have only just heard about printable coupons and am interested in using them at my local Tesco (assuming they are accepted).

So, I need to find out the following:

1. The best places to source these vouchers (NOT pdf ones)

2. How to go about printing them off - how many to a page, what size etc.

3. Is there a shortcut to finding out which items are accepted/sold in Tesco etc?

4. Am I correct in thinking that I don't have to buy the particular item and that it is best to use just one coupon of each product (unless I actually buy the item)?

Sorry for all the questions. I am not being lazy and have spent the last half hour trawling through this forum looking - and getting lost in the process!

Ah very true. Guess I should have thought about that.

On a different note I have been using internet MOCs at the Aycliffe Tesco without any problem this week, since Stockton Extra stopped taking them.
