    ...but would presume the one they send you is unique again, but maybe still traceable to the same person....


    In my experience you presume right ;) If you're able to get one by post & one printed, or two printed, they don't have the same number. Every single couponnet coupon, even 2 from the same computer, should have a different id number.

    Now incase you didn't know...I'm not techie...(everyone rofl)
    But when you click on the link ...go to FILE ,Save As...change it to C&G coupon...then it's easy to locate on My Documents....thats all I did ...I have tried before to copy to Word but I think that does blur the text( it does when I do it) If you click on Reduce Printer Margins and check Choose Paper Source PDF page size( I think thats what it says ) when you come to print it will print in the top right of your A4 paper, then you can flip it over and over and over until you get 4 on a page( 2 on 1 side and 2 on the other.....hope that helps...it works fine for me.

    Thank you for this, i have got as far as 'reduce printer margins' but can't find where it says this? any tips??
    Thanks again.. :j:j

    Another questions (i seem to have a lot of these at the moment):
    is it ok to print coupons in 'greyscale' to save on coloured ink??

    Mad agrees with the comments regarding couponnet. However, a gold star to The Cabbage for ingenuity. :)

    I believe it depends on your supermarket, I always print in black and white and never have a problem, but others on here have reported that their supermarkets assume they are photocopies and don't like them. So it maybe a case of 'suck it and see'.:confused:

    There is a coupon facts section on the first page of this thread, this question and plenty of others are answered there. You may find this useful.

    Absolutely. People 'happen' upon things which can work in our favour so don't stop thinking of ways of improving the MOC stash, Lord knows it peaks & troughs enough as it is!

    Just don't want you to get into any trouble.

    After my experience in t's on sunday I have to say, carrying t's policy is very helpful. I practically leave it in my handbag and go everywhere with it. It's a job and half remembering to sort out all the coupons, dont want that added pressure of having to remember to carry the policy every time I go in there.

    By the way, the policy I have is the one from tesco c.s in dundee. Would never carry the 1 on the first page of this thread as have done that before and they were not having it! got c.s manager down and were all confused, then decided to photocopy the policy i gave to them and said they would be in touch - never bothered calling - that was in feb. of this year. For all they knew I could have made it all up and word processed it. better to have one on tesco letter headed paper. Just as well, as it came in handy this time.

    Had a nightmare in Mr T's this afternoon

    Last week I was told to change tills as one had no customers, and it happened again today. Chose a till and was told to change to another one who had "just come on".

    Young S.A. said they only take 10% in coupons and after I told her that on Saturday this was not the case she called a supervisor.

    The supervisor, a young male one, agreed with the SA and said its always been 10%. She then handed my coupons back to me but took the Sun one.

    I just wish they would all sing from the same hymn sheet

    Its just so confusing.
