Well I had such a good time today

I got 8 Mitchums £1.20 to pay
3 TS serums & 3 Shampoos 3p to pay
4 packs TD wipes FREE
2 Ruby & Millie make up brushe FREE

so I worked out it should have cost £66.61p and I paid £1.23!

Then I went to Asda, got 2 bottles of free comfort (Martin Lewis email said take in any cap from comfort get a free bottle) and used 6 mitchum vouchers in there too, along with a Boots parenting club £1 off pampers!

So happy!

:T :T Good shop.... I love it when a plan comes together!

Sorry to sound like a killjoy (I'm not honestly) but using store specific vouchers like this in stores other than the one they were issued for is a bit of a no no. Purely because it could ultimately lead to supermarkets refusing to accept money off vouchers at all. This is because they cannot claim the money back off anyone like they can if it was a manufacturers coupon. There was also a case in Tesco where people were scanning Somerfield vouchers through Self scan and got into alot of trouble.

Tesco and Asda will accept a percentage off your shopping in manufacturers coupons even if you haven't bought the product and may sometimes accept spend and save (ie Tesco's take save £x wys £x from Sainsburies/morrisons) because you are still spending in their store so they are prepared to take a small loss. But please don't spoil it by using coupons like this (even if the till/SA accepts)

Please don't get me wrong (I love couponing) just a bit of advice. Long may couponing continue :beer:

I just printed mine out in hopes it would print just the bottom part, as I couldn't get it to let me save the image and just crop out all the extra stuff. And it printed the whole thing! By the time I could get the screen up to cancel, it was halfway done so I let if finish. This voucher is a *major* waste of ink and not worth it for a 4ml sample, imo. I should've had my husband print it at work, but too late for that now (that's what I get for being an idiot in a hurry!). But anyone else, print it at work or the library if you can, unless you can come up with a way to not print the whole thing out!

It really annoys me that they seem to purposefully make these printable vouchers very ink-intensive! This one has big pics of four models and the entire background is black! Urgh!!

Hmmmm, and the daft ebayer still not sent my black cartridge...not happy lol as may 'need' that black I just used :rolleyes:

kitiaracat ....do you think you could pop a little warning on your post? Skibster has a really good point here!

Thanks for the advice and Im Sorry to disagree but I used to work for Asda and our policy was if the coupon started 99 it was non store specific. So I thought i would give it a whirl. I tried it last week and it worked then too.

Asda will accept 10% of your total shopping in coupons.

I left 2 years ago so maybe the policy has changed.

didnt have much on when i went bootsing today - had planned to spend all my newly earned points on perfume but had hardly any offers on in hastings. plus none of the acm machines were working! but i did manage to get quite a few bits with all my pinkies and till-spits.
SHOP 1

17 trio eyeshadow - reduced to £2.50
17 eye dazzle - free (should have been £3.99)
sanctuary cleansing wipes - £3.95
No 7 brush manicure set - £6.50

used till spit, pinky and 100points on 17 products which i found lurking in my purse! the SA had a lot of trouble with my No & manicure set - it beeped so she had to find someone else to sort it out and it turned out they had to put it through seperately. so i paid for the first 4 items total £5 to pay ( got pinky and till spit)and then the no7 manicure set total £1.50 to pay and got another till spit for that somehow!! :j the sa then promptly went and moved all the no7 clearence stuff so nobody could get at it!:rotfl:

sanctuary hydrating toner - £5.95

used pink and till spit so total to pay 95p

SHOP 3
No 7 nail file and buffer set - £4

Shop 5
Time delay cleanser - £4.49
No 7 summer pallet - £9.50

used pinky and till spit total = £4.50

i know its not as good as you lot lol but i'm new to this and i really needed to use all me vouchers today else they would have been lost cos wont be able to get to boots for a while now. also as acm wasnt working i couldnt try to get extra points and nowhere around here has had any mags for AGES!!! if anyone interested they got loads of the pink ts syrum in the hastings branch - no mags though
