As a checkout operator at Tesco's, I can say I have never come across an internet voucher. But would be willing to :Dscan any voucher for a customer in the hope that it reduces theis shopping bill. now I am aware of this policy I will also take advantage of it on my weekly shop. way to go guys keep up the good work ! ! p.s please be nice to us guys, it's hard dealing with problems on the front line. We're not all bad ;D

Only last week, Had an irate customer who had just arrived from Sainsbury's. apparently she was using vouchers for percentage of her shop and was told they only accept 10% of total shop in vouchers ???. The customer walked out in disgust leaving the shopping to be put back on the shelves >:(. On arriving at our Tescos branch she asked if we had the same policy :-/? I encouraged her to use the vouchers and if they scanned then we would be happy to accept them ;D. (as a checkout operator, if we do have a 10% policy, I've not been made aware of it ) Although I do advize to shop wisely , and not take advantage by using toooo many coupons on one shop as this could backfire. The last thing we want is a memo from head office refusing all internet vouchers. Happy shopping, guys, x x x

Shopped at Tesco in Hemel Hempstead tonight with a handful of internet vouchers. The young girl who served me said I couldn't use any as I hadn't bought the products. I told her I didnt need to and she started trying to scan them, they wouldn't scan so she started to type them in when a supervisor went passed.

Luckily she had typed in the £2 condom voucher when she started talking to the supervisor. The supervisor said I couldn't use any, again I said that I could and she agreed to scan "a few through" as a goodwill gesture.

Off a £22 shop I managed to get about £3.50 back so not too bad, its more than I would have got if I didnt stand up for myself. I think you just have to keep re-inforcing the fact that you can and say you have emails from CS's to prove it.

I have just had an email from Tesco to say that their policy on coupons has not changed at all.Below is a copy of the email I had today and also a copy of the original email I had.



Thank you for your email.

I can confirm that the statement in the previous email is true.

If we can help you further in the future, please don't hesitate to contact

We had LOADS of vouchers, but we ran out this week!
