  • It may be me getting old but I cant see where you can use the Sun coupon for the Bacardi Breezers... every other coupon has the promotors address but this one just says acceptable at participating retailers. Without a redemption address for the retailer will they refuse it??? Any ideas???

    Interesting point. I bought the paper & gave up that coupon immediately in my Waitrose & it was accepted. Hope it doesn't cause any problems - especially as I have another 3!

    The Sun

    Good news.

    In the Captain Crunch special insert page 4.

    20p off from Pilgrims Choice Cheese non store specific barcode begins with 99.
    £1.00 off Hadwoods Wine coupon redeemable only at The Local.
    20p off from carrot juice non store specific barcode begins with 99.
    50p off Walls bacon non store specific barcode begins with 99.
    £1.00 off Mcains Chips non store specific barcode begins with 99.
    50p off Tangerines coupon redeemable only at the Asda. However this has a 99 barcode.
    50p off from Vileda mop non store specific barcode begins with 99.
    50p off from Mcains sweet potatoes non store specific barcode begins with 99.
    £1.00 off from Bacardi Breezer non store specific barcode begins with 99.

    Also page 26 Coupon no 4 for £9.50 holidays.

    Also page 33 one BOGOF coupon for Angus Burger, and one coupon for free fries & drink when you buy and adult (?) burger (somehow it sounds dirty) ;-)
    Tesco have McCain oven chips on offer at £1 so free chips!!
  • Tesco also have Bacardi Breezers on sale at the moment, 2 x 4 packs for £7.00, even better if you have two of the Sun coupons! :beer:

    Barcodes thast start with 99 are significant as it means they should be recognised and scan in any Supermarket.

    However, a coupon that says 'Asda/Morrisons/Waitrose/Sainsburys only (or whatever, in the t&cs) is not to be used in Tesco. Even though it would scan. So the 50p off Tangerines coupon is a no-no along with the one specific to The Local. The rest look potentially fine though which is great!

    People on this thread are generally looking for nss coupons that will scan AND are redeemable in Tesco against any shopping (i.e. you don't have to buy the item stated on the coupon). Waitrose are the only other store that has the same policy, they will also take some coupons without worrying about whether you've actually bought the product.

    There's a thread on this board about using coupons as cash, have a read and save some money in 2009!

    HTH, soon I must rush out & get some copies of the Sun before they run out.





    P.S. Got to echo Discodee's sentiments, I am a football fan of a lower-division club and applaud any other team that beats Manchester United. Well done Derby! :T

    I think the carrot juice one is also not Tesco.

    Mine were all accepted at the till this afternoon, except the £1 off the 'Local' wine one.
    Cashier asked me to go and get a paper for her to put by because she couldn't leave the till, so I'm guessing I was the first to use these today on her till and that was at 2.30pm.

    We are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars........................


  • I put all £3.80 worth of the NSS vouchers through with no problems earlier at Tesco. So went out and bought another 7 copies of the Sun. Worse case scenario and they stop accepting any, I'm still £1.40 up. :) But please don't abuse it by trying to put through the ones labelled for specific stores, otherwise they could stop accepting them all.

    Sorry about misleading you but the OP did not mention that the Sun coupon is for home fries. The offer is on normal McCain chips.

    The Telegraph wishes you a happy and successful New Year. 2009 will be a challenging year for all and to help give you a head start, the Telegraph is giving away two free Training your Brain books this weekend.

    There are two very good reasons why brain training has become so popular in the past couple of years: it's fun, and it does you good.

    Now, the Telegraph is publishing the ultimate books to brain training - a two-part serialisation of Teach Yourself Training Your Brain. Part one is free inside the Telegraph this Saturday, and part two is free inside this Sunday’s Telegraph.

    Whether you are interested in keeping your mind sharp, or simply enjoy a good puzzle, Teach Yourself Training Your Brain is unmissable.
