    I also went to Tesco armed with my newly received clubcard vouchers, changed them into "double" wine vouchers and bought £30 worth of wine which is still on offer at half price until Sunday. I also had a "£6 off when you spend £40" so I carried on shopping until I had spent £44 (which included some bargains from the reduced section). I then went to the checkout with my Tesco vouchers and some MOCs I had printed and eventually handed over 1p on a £44 pound shop.

    What a great day!!:T

    Certain retailers do not require the product to be present in order to redeem the voucher. They may redeem vouchers against any product in the shopping basket. Work with retailers to discourage this practice.
    Consider limiting voucher campaigns to retailers who [/FONT][/FONT]do [FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma][FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma]require the product to be present. [/FONT][/FONT]See reverse side for advice on wording.
    Be Watchful

    Vouchers are as good as cash. This fact has not escaped a number of unscrupulous individuals who specialise in acquiring large quantities of vouchers & attempt to turn them into ready money through the redemption houses. Keep in touch with your distributor and redemption house to monitor such activity. [/FONT][/FONT]
    Protect Yourself
    [FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma][FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma]
    Review redemption patterns with your distributor and the redemption house. If there is evidence of blatant mal-redemption, you may choose [/FONT][/FONT]not [FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma][FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma]to pay out to some claimants.
    [/FONT][/FONT]
    But be sure to include wording to this effect on the voucher.

    High value vouchers are attractive to readers … and also all the wrong kinds of people (see above). Keep the value of your vouchers [/FONT][/FONT]appropriate [FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma][FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma]to the product [/FONT][/FONT]and [FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma][FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma]the promotional medium. As a general rule don’t put high value vouchers in low price media. [/FONT][/FONT]
    Watch the News
    [FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma][FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma]
    Consider your promotional media carefully. Newspapers give wide coverage to your voucher promotion but also put temptation into many more hands. Be aware of the risks as well as the opportunities. [/FONT][/FONT]
    Mind the Net
    [FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma][FONT=Tahoma,Tahoma]
    Don’t get caught out by the internet. On line vouchers can be printed many times. Some may get redeemed against your magazine, but not necessarily all. For some people the Internet is literally a licence to print money! [/FONT][/FONT]

    Found quite a few out of date PDF's why do you always find them when they are over?
    Found this though Summer 08 members booklet with a few PDF's in, out of date of course, but I assume there will be a summer 09 one

    I think it has something to do with the way they reported the Liverpool Hillsborough Tradgedy PC.The paper falsely accused fans of robbing the dead and causing the deaths!!

    Correct - While decent papers reported on how the fans saved lives when someone wouldn't let ambulances onto the precious pitch, The Sun headline was:-

    "The Truth; some fans picked pockets of victims; some fans urinated on the brave cops; some fans beat up PC giving kiss of life"

    It was totally made up to sell more papers. They tried applogising 5 years ago, but after consulting with the families of the 96, the appology was rejected.

    Thanks to all the effort of the new thread and keping it going with all the info on the first page:beer:
    Has any one printed off the FREE babies bundle sainsburys voucher worth 9.99 and tried to use it without buying the huggies nappies - wondred if it was worth a try or just waste of ink ?

    I went one better - i bought the nappies and the gift, but there was a 3rd off both items, so i got paid to take them (eg gift scanned at £6.66, nappies at £2.22 and my voucher still went through at £9.99) :D

    The 1/3 off offer ended shortly after i got them.

    Thanks sher, coupon in post and should be received within 28 days.

    I bought two of these a couple of weeks ago (with MOC's) from my local T when they were on offer and my kids didn't like the one they tried which was the tomato and roasted garlic as the tomato taste was overwhelming (and they normally eat any pasta sauce put in front of them!). I put this on thE feedback form and they say I am receiving a cheque for the full cost and a 50p coupon. Madness surely. They'll lose loads as I presume lots of people buy these when on offer and cheque will surely be for full RRP!:T


    Not complaining of course!!! By the way.... don't put the letter R after th numbers for the garlic one HTH

    Thanks Sher, can you just list the pack sizes on those too? It's one of the questions you must answer.... Don't suppose you got a code off the most expensive jar did you?:D

    Won't be shopping until Saturday so a code off of a 660g jar would be useful!:cool:

    ps Shame the Vodka one isn't on half price <hic>

    Sorry I didn't include the jar size, they are all 350g size. I'll get some codes for the larger jars today (provided my brain is working and I can remember to look!).
    Murphy knows me too well and sticks to me like glue!

    Have no idea if Sainsburys sell yours or not , I never usually shop in Sainsburys but went there for Finish this week and had a look at their cartridges...(I have always bought mine in Tesco , 1 black for £4 odd and 1 set of colour for £11.94...bought a load recently on the 250 extra points promotion) I decided to compare Sainsburys with Tesco and was surprised to see they do a pack with all 4 in for £11.96...thats £2.99 each...never seen them anywhere that cheap ...so might be good idea to check 'em out.
