    Unfortunately not. I just buy £30 worth, put them in the car, then go round again, and again etc.

    Takes a bit longer than normal, obviously, but what else am I going to do on a wet Sunday afternoon?
    Last time this offer was on I asked at customer services about this and she said to ask Sa to check when I had spent £30( or just over) and then pay , then continue and pay again. Got to the till and explained what I was about to do and young lad said he would do his very best to stop at £30...when the sub-total was £28.50 he looked at other goods and said 'lets try and find something for £1.50.' which he did. Gave him the £5 coupon and £7 worth of internet coupons and paid £18 .He then continued with the rest of my shopping which came to just over £36...did exactly the same £5 and £7 worth of internet coupons and paid just over £24.Can't wait to do the same with todays £5 coupons and as there are the £2.99 worth of Hannah Montanna coupons as well in NOTW to hand in, that's £7.99 off just from NOTW .I bought 3 copies today , love saving £23.97 for £1.95 outlay and the HM coupons are valid until October, not just 'til the weekend.

    This is actually what the cashier suggested to me the other week in order to get 2 jars of coffee as there was one free for every £30 spent. It goes to show that some cashiers are helpful.

    Don't suppose the £5 off works for petrol/diesel?

    does anyone know at what point this would be taken off?

    for example, if i were to spend £50 to take advantage of the 5p/litre off petrol offer, would the £5 voucher be deducted first so that my total comes down to approx £45 and therefore miss out on petrol offer?

    thanks! karie

    As long as your total spend is at least £50( on the receipt you will see SUB-TOTAL( say £55)...then MULTIBUY SAVINGS( say 2 x £2)...then TOTAL SAVINGS.(£-4)..then TOTAL TO PAY £51 ) ... your payment can be cash/credit card/cheque plus £5 NOTW and any other MOC's .Apart from my usual once a week shop I'm also a Mystery Shopper and do Tesco Mystery shops whenever I can and am usually in Tescos several times a week.Got 3 to do this week.

    Hi,

    Does anyone know if you can use the NOTW £5 and one of the current coupons that came with the Deals mailings? I have a £5 0ff £50 spend so , if I spend £50 after BOGOF will i get the two to work?

    Would be grateful for any advice.
