My Tesco don't have the single limited edition packs. I checked the crisp aisle and the food to go section.

Also, the Superjam + the Brit & Tang Herbal Tea were not accepted by the till. They beeped when they were scanned.

So the Sun coupons have a value of 80p.

My family tried all the flavours the other week and were unanimous that the chilli and chocolate were the best. Also, I'm not sure why this surprised me but the fish and chips flavour is quite fishy. Reminded me of the smell of Go Cat.

Quoting myself here, but I tried one of the petrol station Tesco stores after writing that and they had them in, so redeemed all my coupons.

I guess you could try the petrol station attached to the superstore first if yours has one.

Just back from Tesco and neither of the 2 mentioned above would scan( hand held or typed in), cashier askedsupervisor and was told they have been blocked at the till and could not be used. The 2 crisps scanned fine as I had got 2 bags but she did say some people are handing in the coupons without having the crisps and they had to be OK'd with supervisor, 1 supervisor had said accept the other had said 'don't accept '....

No problems getting 4 "Fish & Chips" at the first Tesco (just a petrol station Express Forecourt store) BUT all the Chilli & Chocolate had gone, as had all the Daily Mail DVDs, so I knew I'd be popping to a nearby Express store to get my copy of "Sea of Sand".

The second Express didn't even stock the Chilli & Chocolate so picked up Cajun Squirrel instead, HOWEVER all the "Do Us A Flavour" bags here were 57p each.
Whilst coupon says FREE, barcode obviously only scans at 55p.
The SA insisted I had to PAY the additional 2p for each bag.
Anyway I handed it over but queried their higher price not being charged at the previous store, only about a mile away.
Manager called over, she closely examined the coupon and said "Well it does say FREE", whereupon she open the till and gave me my money back.
Said something about "looking in to changing the price if dozens of people over the next 3 days are going to be coming in with these coupons"

So be aware of price differences.

The voucher itself does not stipulate F&C or C&C, just "Walkers 'Do us a flavour' 46g bag". May be possible to get other flavours with it.......

Not relevant to today's paper but thought I would share my success with you.
I contacted Holland & Barrett as my local store had run out very quickly of the prunes for the recent free bag offer. Suggested to them that they ensured more supplies available when special promotion (as I had seen on here that others had been unsuccessful).
I received a really nice letter today which enclosed £3 gift vouchers. Result!
Worth bearing in mind if similar problems with other offers.
