I thought I check stock first before I buy the Daily Express, found one bottle of bio-synergy capsules (last one) in Tesco Lewisham and thought myself properly lucky, but the voucher wouldn't go through, so she voided the entry and I trudged to Customer Services who said they hadn't got the one from the voucher in stock and the one I had there was not the same. Looked exactly like it to me! But she wouldn't let me have it so I bought that paper for nothing.Oh well. Had more luck with the Telegraph though, got my Body Shop body lotion easily, as well as the large Galaxy Bar. Went into Superdrug Lewisham and couldn't see any, so I asked at the till. He said "we keep them behind the counter", reached down and gave me a bar! So don't give up if you can't see them, ask first, they might have hidden them!
Seems to be a bit of contradiction somewhere.
And don't forget you are also at least £1 up in money-off coupons even if you paid the full 70p for the Daily Express

Unless they decided to re-stock the shelves AFTER Beate went shopping !!:p
The section on the shelf in my local Mr T was empty, where this should have been. Sel still in place.
Hopefully some other mser managed to get one.
Also, my superdrug had no choc left ( I did ask staff), but on the positive side, it helps the diet.
Still have the £1 and express moc, so not too bad considering I missed out on all the freebies.;)0 -

I went to a different store- Canada Water store- which I had vowed to not return to but....1 left!
I went to the tills, then realised the one I had was not the right one (it states it has to be the Hoodia version, I had the fat burning one). Of course the voucher would not scan, it was 10 minutes to closing, big ques...I went to customer service, explained the voucher had not worked, gave her my recipet, expecting a refund and to hand back the item, and was immediatly given a cash refund and got to keep the item! apparently could not out it back on my card as the machine had been closed for the end of that day.
Now I am almost certain that had I not had "history" with this staff member on customer service desk (if anyone read my post on the dtd oranges a few weeks back where I complained to head office for being overcharged...etc etc) that I would have not got these for free no questions asked!
Thanks again OP! I even got my Clubcard points on the £16.99! I really hope these work!0
