    Well done pinkprincess!! :T:T:T

    I had a good day today as well, one of my 'we-don't-take-Morrisons-spend-and-saves' local Tesco stores actually refunded me a fiver for one of them. They are still not (yet) taking them really but the CS lady explained a bit more about the problems taking non-scanning coupons will cause them in the long run - they may not be able to show them at all as 'income' for the store, I think - but she agreed to refund one.

    The rest of my unpaid fivers are going to be sent off to Dundee with copies of my receipts this week - and every week after that if I have to!

    I am also making a point of always going to CS with my Morrisons moc each day, even though it's pretty fruitless as I am usually denied it at the moment. But I think it's a good way of raising the problem with the right staff (today's CS lady was great) - after all there are 6 weeks of these.
    My store don't turn a hair at the other mocs on my receipts BTW and I am making sure I am actually paying a fiver in cold cash each time so there can be no arguments about reclaiming later.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

    great idea, we are going to use our lst £5 off tomorrow, will let you know how we get on, we went to a smaller tescos today they took all manufactorers coupons but wouldnt take any internet ones including couponnet,they said some one had spoilt things by abusing them.I guess they were photo copied en mass,when will these selfish people realise not only do they spoil it for us, but for theselves aswell....:eek::eek::eek::eek:
    Live for today, for tomorrow is promised to no-one.

    never complain about growing old,far too many people have been denied that privilege.

    Bravo!! Well said!!!:T:T I especially like the part where you say (and I thoroughly agree with every word), "They promote their willingness to accept coupons to get us to go there, but in reality avoid taking them, then make us feel like criminals if we try to get them to stick to their policy." I'm giving you a standing ovation!!!:j:j You hit that right on the head. :eek:

    Thanks Sher60, :dance:

    We shouldn’t be made to feel bad about being a bona fide shopper, using coupons in good faith, acquired honestly and in accordance with stated policies. Even though we may sometimes be treated like criminals, we must be careful not to get carried away and do anything that could lead to prosecution. :naughty:

    Also, if you forge or reproduce coupons that can be tracked, it could get you into trouble, and will spoil things for everyone. :naughty:

    From my short experience as a couponer, and reading what others say on this forum, it seems possible to obtain legitimately, reasonable amounts of coupons for personal use. :grouphug:

    Went to garden centre and all I got was 2 x £1 off miracle Gro Singles, but according to my supermarket, T's don't sell! Weirdly, no end date. Anyway, love it if someone can prove me wrong.
