    Perhaps Martin advertising the use of coupons has something to do with it? Killing the golden goose?

    its not exactly end of the world if you cant use the coupons

    How about if you use the self serve?;)

    In our local store there is a bit of paper sellotaped across the coupon slot telling you to ask for the member of staff if using coupons.

    I used a coupon at the checkout today and the SA took it without me buying the product.

    You used the £1 MOC from the small Oasis bottles. When you cut them out, the barcode on the outside that is used to charge you the 87p for the bottle is on the opposite side of the barcode for the £1 off. It is very easy for the till op, or the tills, to scan it the wrong way round. Perhaps a little tape over the wrong one would help?

    must remember this, have one in my purse still to use

    My local one has taped over the coupon slots.:confused:

    No but it helps if you're on a very low income. I have never tried to use a voucher for anything other than the product it states but nonetheless, I had my Danone Activia vouchers from BzzAgent refused; having been held up at the till by a 16 year old clueless girl whose manager then said that she knew nothing of the offer because Danone hadn't told her. So, Danone are meant to contact thousands of UK retailers any time they want to offer MOCs?

    A friendly cashier at my local store told me this policy comes in on Saturday (18th October).

    Perhaps they're rolling it out gradually?

    Can't find anything about the coupon policy on their website.
  • i used some moc today in asda long eaton and was told by cashire that from nov 3rd they will only be taking them if you buy the product

    asda did not follow the rules!!!!!! as i got £2 airwick voucher and i don;t want the item specific on coupon so i want airwick crystalair, they make a lot of trouble, even they keep the voucher! and force me to pay the item i don;t want as it is not free.

    I bought Asda own brand nappies yesterday and used a Pampers coupon, nothing was said.
