Updated Printable Money off Coupons & Policies Thread 5 (and chat)

I too have been having a problem with the hovis one, i have never even tried printing before now and it says print ltd reached???

I'm not too bothered about it though as it can only be used once as i only have access to one PC.

I dont know how some of you find all these coupons, i have read some of you saying you have got £20 worth.

I have £7 but am still pleased, keep trying to find new ones but have no look. Are there other sites you people use?? Apart from coupon net?

Yesterday, I went to a Tesco that wouldn't take the Sun £5 off £30 coupon, because they said they didn't take coupons from newspapers. Also I've been to several that don't take coupons for magazines, and that won't let you use coupons from magazines, such as Hello, Grazia etc, even if you buy the magazine it's for.

This is obviously another case of manager's discretion and varies from store to store.

my T will not take coupons from papers or mags unless you buy the product but they do take spend and save i.e. morrisons £5 although some staff are/have been difficult about it as they don't scan but in the end when I say I have used them before and even had a refund from Dundee as they are different from 'coupons' they do end up taking them without calling a supervisor so they must know it is OK - and as of last week there is even a sign outside saying they acceot them:D

use the little camera icon on the toolbar, and drag it over the coupon you want, it'll copy it to clipboard *saved to computer* just open microsoft word, ctrl v and there you go

Wonder what happen to M4rtin? Where he's gone? M4rtin used to post alot on the previous 1/2/3&4 threads but not anymore.

I remember when I first started looking up this site R4pture was the one who looked after the first post but we never hear from him now - hope he is well and 'DJ' ing in the Notts area where he came from/studied
It would be good to know he is OK and how he is doing:D
Hope you are well and enjoying life R4 and I am sure others are wondering too - if you are out there please say 'HI' to us all

Boy, what a day I've had today!! I was just getting started with printing and I got a message on the screen saying that there was a part in the printer that has reached an end and needed to be serviced. So I call the people I bought it from and they told me that in every printer there is a counter and when you reach the limit that is set by the factory then you have to get it reset but only an Epson service center can do that. So I call the service center and they want to charge me £20 to reset it. But Hubby can't believe that Epson decides how long you printer will last! And I've only had the printer for 3 or 4 months tops!! So he insists I go buy a new printer because he wants to get Trading Standards involved as "surely Epson doesn't have the right to decide how long you printer will last!" and if I get the printer fixed then he can't do as the Trading Standards advised him to do (write a letter to the people we bought it from and let them try to sort it out with Epson). So now I have a new printer that I really did not want or can really afford and Hubby has now decided to just get the other one fixed and keep it as a back-up!!:eek::eek:

I didn't sleep much or very well last night either because yesterday when I was in my favorite Tesco (shh don't tell Hubby, he thinks I just went to pick up his mother for her Sunday visit) some of the staff said that there might be a change in the coupon policy because a supervisor doesn't like them. I'd hate for the policy to be stopped there as it really is a special store because the staff (all but 2) are very nice even the manager is very nice - he says hello to me every time I see him (how many of you even know what the manager looks like at your stores!) and I feel really comfortable shopping there. I stopped in there on my way home for a consoling shop after buying the printer and thankfully the policy still stands and I was told that it will stay like that as long as the store is getting their money back and making money from the 2p they get for each coupon they except. They must have made a fortune off me!!!

Plus, I had a nice haul from the postie!:j He brought me £6.80 worth of coupons, that's offset a tiny portion from the cost of the new printer.:rolleyes:

Hi sher60

this happened to my son, and he has an epsom r800. His friend also had a r300 and the same happened to him.

As my son is good with computers he refused to accept that the printer needed servicing and did a google search and found the epsom programme that they use to re set the printer counter.

It took a couple of minutes to do it and it was all sorted. The printer worked perfectly now and cost nothing to fix.

give it a go and let me know if my son can help in any way,

good luck
