Has anyone else had a "problem" with the new Garnier one....... my printer won't stop printing them...all with individual PIN numbers.....just checked the first 5 against the safe coupons site...and they all say
:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j
The coupon bearing this code must read as follows:
Summary:£1.00 OFF
Description:your next purchase of any of the Garnier HerbaShine range
EAN 13 Code:9913831681007
Expiry Date: This offer must be used by 8/5/2009
Timestamp:24/4/2009

:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
I'm going to run out of paper!


edit:
It must have been some kind of "coupon Karma"......
Now for the tricky moral question, should I post them all back to Garnier, since it was obviously a glitch?:rotfl:
Or just bin them.........or leave them lying around in the toiletries aisle, and hope no-one abuses them?;)

What an ACE fluke. Once in a MOC lifetime event. I managed to get 1, even the no it didn't print click came back with the offer limit reached. Nice one :T

Strange one.........
Just back from my morning shop at t and paid as usual with coupons, but the 1.50 ok mag moc was rejected!! in date etc. anyways just wanted to know if anybody else has a prob with this one today/suggestions.
I will try it again tonite on a different shop.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
see Markz had same prob!!!!!!!!!

My local hasn't taken newspaper or magazine coupons without buying the newspaper/mag for ages...it is apparently something to do with the way they are claimed back locally, instead of centrally. Hopefully, this won't start affecting everyone now

I know It is a bit of work, but now that the newspapers seem to have coupons in just about every day I wondered if it would be possible to put on the first page a link to the newspaper summary thread or if it would be ok for one of us to post the link every day? I try to look most days now, but I know I never used to and missed out a lot and newbies might not know to look.
Todays daily express (70p) and Star (30p) have the £1 off ok mag coupon inside. NSS, ok to scan in T's. (Thanks to quoia)

Here's todays link

Hi BlueWkd
Because the link changes everyday, I have this link saved, as a bookmark ....I posted it a while back....which does a search for it, and always displays it as one of the top one or two posts, (or usually, since this post will probably now also show up..for today anyway):beer:

veggiecar, no its not they do not accept mag or paper ones, ok with the telegraph 1.95 and the 2 reggae sauces, so it is specifically the ok mag one.

Thanks for clarifying that...sorry to alarm, people...Hopefully, it's just a temporary glitch then, and not that they have finally realised they are claiming back for more OK magazines than they have sold;)

Apparently according to op (hnscott) on the newspaper thread the £1 vouchers out of the papers are not going through either. So it looks like a total block on Ok coupons unless you buy the mag.

my 1,.50 one returned too

poshnosh

just got back from t's - went in with £7 of coupons and hoping to spend £7/8. As I was fluttering around the flowers (as i tend only to buy the reduced ones), I found some £1 fuscias so bought myself 2 and 1 for mum (reduced from £2 to £1 each). Then saw a plant (also reduced from £3 to 1.55). then.....saw one of the cs ladies handing out leaflets with coupons so managed to get one of those too. Inside were £5 off a £20 shop. (pretty cool considering I get £2 off a £20 shop in my quarterly statement) Cudn't help myself so just carried on shopping (why not stock up) until had some trouble trying to decide what to buy - was spoilt for choice as I had all the essentials already.

Anyway, my lovely sa who I go to regularly just scanned all the coupons and bought a £24 down to £9. The £2 finish coupon scanned fine too.......yippeee.......on wed paid 20p for a £10 shop.....oh i'm loving couponing

Was well chuffed.....had to come on here and share this with all you coupon lovers.............thank you.

p.s its such a buzz when the coupons scan through sooooooooo smoothly. I shall carry on scooponing

At my local t's, the £1 coupon out of sun newspaper accepted but not the £1.50 moc for Ok mag.
