NEWSPAPER SUMMARY - Friday 28th November

Quentin

.......I cannot believe you are suggesting, and/or condoning, using a MOC in Tescos which clearly states on it WH Smiths only!!!!! Its attitudes like that which will get the policy stopped for good!

It is impossible to believe you! I haven't made any such suggestion. In fact it seems you only wanted to use the coupon as cash (which is against the coupons conditions) - now we know why you bought 4 papers.

The only one to blame here is yourself. You are the one that bought all the papers!

Quoias instructions are difficult (and time consuming) to comply with, and I don't see any others who comply with them all.

I did use the code to indicate the coupon wasn't universal and only for "selected shops".

I gave you the page number - I thought the idea of that was so we could check out the actual coupon before specially buying a particular paper to get it??

And within half an hour of my post Lima-India posted about Smiths. I see from your posting history that only yesterday you posted an enquiry from Nudge about a coupon to find out where it could be used - if you were so concerned today, why not do the same instead of just moaning at someone trying to help, and causing unnecessary trouble?

I also see from your posting history that your contribution to finding and posting coupons is low to zero!

well some people like myself would only goto the shop to buy the concerned paper for the coupon and from where i live thats good 20min walk! how hard is it to say this coupon can only be used XXXX store i mean come on not rocket science is it?

Also whether or not people have found a coupon or not seems to me the so called elitist need to get off there mountains and either help or not if thats there attitudes i wish they would poke there coupons right down there mouth and shut them up!
Either help properly or don't bother i sure their are others behind them that will without require licking the ground they walk on!
If i posted some info i would have the decency to say where it could be used, how much discount etc and how much spend required etc not hard is it!

Right. Point one. Yes I do use coupons - and I follow Tescos own policy - ie all different, in date, etc etc, as do rather a lot of people here. So dont have a go at me for that.

Two. "code to show the coupon wasnt universal"??? Sorry, where was that bit??

Three. As I said in my original post, I freely admitted it was my own fault for not checking the paper before I bought it. I was simply commenting that it would have been helpful for the OP (yourself) to have mentioned that it was for Smiths only.

Four. So just because I have never been lucky enough to find and post a coupon before someone else does, that makes me a lesser person than you?? Yes I regularly use the newspaper thread, and also add my Thanks to all those who post the information.

And to the poster below - yes I am the same littlemissjojo from PTS - does it matter??? And for the record - PTS is a darned sight more friendly than here!!

I apologise.

Sorry - the quoting & replying didnt work very well there - I apologise, the bc thing had passed me by.

I dont want to get into a long running argument here, I'm really not like that. But I will stand my corner and voice my thoughts. Yes I should have checked the paper before buying, but equally you could have stated WH Smiths only.

f you can get hold of it!! (London bound) I saw a 20% off voucher for Muji in the Evening Standard free magazine- ES or something like that?
If you didn't get the evening standard this evening, don't worry, they often will have loads and loads of the mags left and hanging around newsagents and supermarkets with the other newspapers. Venders of next weeks Evening standard also continue to give them out the following week as an extra as they always have way too much.
