    Tesco's annual report indicates they are expanding profits.

    The real truth is the prices are going up as well as opening new stores.

    Tesco prices are higher than many stores.

    I gave up on Tesco for shopping a year ago and it appears so have many others.

    Compare the current Milk prices to Somerfield and Iceland.

    Once reality sets in that the old Tesco policy of 'pile it high.. sell it cheap' has been dropped,consumers will be using other outlets.

    Shoppers are creatures of habit.
    Think not what MSE.com can do for you but what you can do for MSE

    :confused: How would you know that?

    Most people use one or two local stores, how many do you use, 100?

    If you take a look on the Tesco Voucher thread on the Discount Vouchers board, you'll be able to see.

    It makes quite a bit of a difference, when you have a low income, and do your weekly shop there as well.

    Had you been spoken to before about using the vouchers? If you had and still did it that would be why they have banned you.
    If they have banned to (and you are a clubcard holder) they should have sent you a letter explaining why and for how long.

    They have been fine with it in the past!! :confused:

    I don't have a clubcard, but still would expected them to give me a reason

    Using the vouchers, every week, for example 10% off, would save a massive amount each year, and makes a difference.

    Every little helps?

    Apparently it doesn't now according to Crooker so you're obviously better off being banned.

    But surely you can use them in other places.?

    Or can you!

    Unfortunately not...

    Only Tesco offer this decent coupon policy.... surely if it caused them too much trouble and they didn't earn a lot of money from it, they wouldn't offer it and would have stopped it like Asda did.
