    I do not like my local Tesco much but I shop there because I can save money and I will be VERY disappointed when they do stop taking coupons and I do think it will happen soon as all of the SA I talk to tell me that it will come soon because of so much coupon abuse in the store - yes others are spoiling it for us genuine couponers - I hope they are wrong but if they are not it is only the coupons that keeps me shopping at T and even if it was not I would still vote with my feet in the hope that if enough of us did they would change their policy back again which is what happened ages ago before I started couponing

    If Tesco do change their policy again, it will most likely not allow internet coupons. Internet coupons can be photocopied or edited reasonably easily. For a cashier, it is very hard to detect the difference between a real and fake coupon unless the person has done it badly.

    Coupons from magazines and newspapers are very hard to fake as they have things printed on both sides and they use a different type of paper to that in printers and photocopiers.

    It's too bad not all Tesco's had such well trained and very nice staff as the Willenhall store. They have adopted a policy of having all coupons checked by the check-out supervisor and it works really well. I have my coupons checked before I shop (in case they refuse any, which they don't because they are legit, so I know how much money I can spend on my shopping) and it doesn't matter who the check-out supervisor is as they are all very well trained in knowing what to look for on the coupons and they are all so nice!!! They are all dressed professionally so you know exactly who the supervisor is and I just can't say it enough, but they are genuinely nice people. I commend the manager of the store as he/she must be very good at their job to have such wonderful and well trained staff. I have voted with my feet from my "true" local store (Dudley) as the staff there are very nasty and they stopped taking internet coupons full stop so I fully support that idea for stores that stop taking coupons. You may want to have a look at other Tesco stores in your area that may take coupons, even the Express stores, you never know they may follow the coupon policy, I have used 3 or 4 Express stores that do.

    I totally agree about the Willenhall store. I used to shop there quite regularly until I moved a couple of months ago and the staff are really friendly and know the stores policies etc. I also agree about Dudley some of the staff there could be quite nasty. Cradley Heath is another good store that took all coupons and the staff were friendly. I could give you info on quite a few stores in the area if anyone wants to know just pm me lol!!!
    I dont blame tesco if they change the internet voucher policy but lets hope they don't change the 'normal' voucher policy to the same as Asda etc!!!!

    Same happened to me yesterday but the printer icon never appeared on the bottom-of-the-page toolbar, so I knew it hadn't actually sent the coupon to my printer after the first time.

    I think it's a glitch but not a useful one, sadly!

    Mine did actually print 3..........sadly it stopped then!!

    I can't see a coupon either!!

    I found it!!!! It is the advert on the side of the page! I opened the page and kept refreshing the page until the "Save 20p on delicious Weight Watchers loaves" advert came up in the advert section of the page. Only allowed to print 1 and date expires in 14 days.
