    My local store seems to be getting a bit 'tighter' on coupons. Friday no problem - 16 coupons, £13+ including 1 Plenty. Saturday, usual SA, "I'll just have to check", "Oh no" thinks me, she calls over supervisor (not the one I prefer!) who says "it's 10 coupons but only 3 internet", managed £11 which included 2 Plenty and the free yoghurts (which didn't count towards the 10!). Sunday, the 10 rule came in again so only got £7 which included 1 Plenty. I've used all my £2 thermacare from Best so I haven't got many high value "non-internet" coupons left. Anyone else had similar? I suppose £31 isn't bad, but I don't like being restricted. If they keep this up I'm going to struggle to use all my low value couponnet coupons before they run out.

    I'd be interested to know which store this is as it bears a strong resemblence to my last week shoppng in Tesco. We are now down to 5 coupons and then supervisor checks and refuses anything that is slightly blurred or hard to read e.g. yeo valley, orkney etc.

    We were told by email from Head Office back in Jan that at the sa's discression you could put through more than one transaction at a time. We don't always do this but you know what it's like if there is a good bargain etc!!! I wouldn't do it to often and maybe choose a quieter time of day aswell. Or maybe you could do smaller shops every day or every couple of days this would help you dispose of the lower value coupons and use more coupons to save you more money. xxxx
    Thanks for all your replies - I've already cut down the amount I spend on each shop and go in probably 4 times a week from once a week (or even every other sometimes). I always make a point of 'popping in' if I fill the cars up - I've got 2 x 5p offs to use by Friday so I will HAVE to go in again. I will probably do it in 2 trips on different days and bump up my shops that way this week. Good news, I managed to get another £4.99 Purina Dog coupon this morning on my father-in-laws account - fantastic.

    My local metro store implemented a "must purchase product" policy a while ago and just recently moved to one coupon per shop if not buying. However a new store manager started this week and I had a good chat with her when I asked her for some help finding an item: I stated that I attempted to use a coupon and was told needed to buy product and thought this may have been against TESCO policy. The new manager agreed and promised to communicate the proper national policy to all staff.

    I have been in twice since and used 8 coupons both times and even the previously Hitler type employees happily accepted all coupons and even typed in problem MOCS.:T :j
  • Does anybody know if Mr T's take the farmfoods spend £25 and get £2.50 off vouchers? I know they used to take the Sainsburys ones but not sure about these.
