    my printer is a brother and I have been told by a friend who has the same one that there a no compatable inks for the brother range as they spill ink all over the place so I am paying £15 for black ink and £26 for 3 colour inks - not cheap but worth it for higher value coupons but any advice about compatable inks would be appreciated

    I would really recommend an Epson. I went to a computer fair and bought an Epson all-in-one (£40) and a continuous ink system to go with it (£40) so I just buy bottles of ink to fill the system with (online from the people I bought the printer and ink system from). I think I paid £21 for all four ink bottles. It lasts ages and prints loads!!

  • My Tesco is being VERY annoying now, not to mention inconsistent.

    I am having to be very careful about who I choose to redeem my coupons as it seems that the day supervisors are being awkward now.

    Last night I was told, no coupons could be redeemed unless you bought the product and they showed me a team briefing sheet saying that.

    Today I was told I could redeem one complementary coupon, again saying that they have been losing money from unredeemable coupons.

    I am NOT using any internet coupons, only coupons from newspapers and magazines, so how they could even suspect that they are fake, I have no idea. Especially as the coupons have articles/pics etc from the newspapers/magazines on the back of them and the paper they are on is not paper you print on. So extremely difficult and certainly not worth the hassle for anyone to make fakes of.

    I think it is time to email head office again to tell them about what is happening and see if they will do something about it as this is just stupid.

    Hi, i do keep a eye on this thread, but not posted before but thanks everyone for the links and keeping me entertained.

    I have a friend who is till supervisor and authorises all the coupons and got called in for a chat with the manager who told her head office are not happy and are currently reviewing their coupon policy. :(

    For now she's just been to check all coupons very throughly, not to accept more than 10 in any transaction and only to accept them in their 'true form' this means no black and whites (although i didn't have any problems using b&w today).

    Anyone else 'know' anyone who might be in the 'know'?

    I just thought i would mention it and suggest that if this is the case now might not be the best time to be contacting head office?

    15% OFF HomeCare® from British Gas for new HomeCare® customers

    Don't all rush at once :rolleyes:

    I have homecare do you think they would honour this for existing if I complained it is not fair to treat new customers differently. Alternatively could I cancel my existing cover and then purchase the same cover using the discount?? Sorry a bit off topic but would appreciate your views?

    Also I cannot get the link to work???

    I have just visted Couponnet and there were coupons available that I have had in the past: Inhalator, Slendips and Ryvita. However when I went to print it stated I needed to download coupon printer but I did this ages ago and have been printing okay ever since. Anyway I downloaded (again) and it did not print but when I went back to the coupons selected (above) it now stated print limit reached - any ideas please? Thank you

    The computer remembers that you printed them, even if it was a while ago.
