    I only do this when the store is really quiet so that I don't have anyone waiting after me. The supervisor said it was ok, as long as I was using one of each coupon in each transaction. Trust me, this is not a wind up, and I never use out-of-date coupons.

    You should have said the supervisor said it was okay for you to split your shopping, then you would not have gotten so many bad reactions from the rest of us! You have to understand that those of us that really need to use coupons in order to eat are scared to death someone will ruin it for us.

    you are so right sher60,but to some its only a game, I know several people who really need to use coupons,including myself, so come those of you out there who think its fun to disface coupons and abuse the system,think of others please.:o
    Live for today, for tomorrow is promised to no-one.

    Oooooh! Try printing out in the best quality your printer will print, that might fix your fuzzy bar code problem.

    Have you tried cleaning your printer heads?...(normally pressing a button in your printing software)

    If you can read it clearly on screen, you should be able to print it clearly on paper;)
    If it is fuzzy on screen...it doesn't matter how much you improve your print quality or paper quality, you'll still get fuzzy out.;)
    It's nice to be nice .....:beer:
    You HAVE checked google before asking, haven't you?;)

    My Finish one worked okay in Tesco this morning. I used it to purchase celery and cucumber for a thrilling lunch combo. I can hardly wait.

    Thanks for all your suggestions for my fuzzy barcode, just off to try printing again - not holding my breath though as I've tried to print out a few time using various permutations, (even tried on a friend's colour laser printer) so I guess I've got a fuzzy screen ! Oh dear, some you win, some you lose, but I'm not giving up easily on this one.
    Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift - the present. ;)

    If the supervisor and manager are happy with it, why should you be concerned about the looks from folk in the queue...it's not your fault the cashier can't do her/his job....try crossing your arms and looking really frustrated at the cashier, while it is happenning, and throw in a couple of "tut"s and perhaps start tapping your foot or stamping your feet;).....the queue will slowly get on your side or just move away to other checkouts:rotfl:

    :rotfl:I guess I wasn't very clear, when I said fuzzy screen....what I meant was....
    If you can read the small print on screen, you should be able to read it on your print out:beer:
