    yes it was, luckly the small print is so small they said 'ooohh this expires on the 18th' (it actually says 16th!) i said 'does it? lol:money:
    I can't believe you have been so blatant as to admit to this. OK it's not a major crime but you are clearly ripping the !!! out of the MOC policy & when it ends at your store....cos it quite possibly will YOU can take great pleasure in claiming a portion of responsibility for it.

    Obviously you are maxing MOC usage short term & not caring about the long term gain but then I guess you take the view that if it isn't you it's gonna be someone else.

    I know this sounds harsh just hope you don't shop in my store.

    Wow... you mean like TESCOs ripping off the product Manufacturers ???? if there eyes arnt good enough for the small print then its not my fault!! off to Tescos again in abit....
    And NO im not maxing the MOC usage short term, actuall LONG TERM ive used them 4 times a day everyday since they were published along with other different coupons....
    Tescos accepting coupons for products you dont buy WILL stop at some stage, so why not make the most of it now... and im quite sure alot of the silent people in here will use the finish coupons today too.

    To the moners....can you clearly see the 16th? or could it be the 18th??????

    Velvet Toilet Roll - 50p (exp 4 weeks) (prints 2 copies)

    This didn't come to an end on 15 July :j but coupons are now expiring after 2 weeks.
    Still prints two, but, when I did it, saying no did not allow another print, but going back 2 or 3 stages to 'Print my coupon' did ;) (Not back arrow on FF3, use drop down to go back 3 pages IYSWIM)
    :p:p Have a good [STRIKE]Tesc[/STRIKE][STRIKE]Asd[/STRIKE]WHO? day - Err....I still wish Mozzies had a better website even though they are now on MyS! :p:p :rotfl:;)

    Oh Dear djrich1 - you've got totally the wrong attitude.:mad:
    Sheer stupidly and arrogance beyond belief.
    you've GOT to be a bloke! Admit it, I'm right aren't I?
    (Sorry, to all the ace blokes on the thread)

    Strong words, I know, and probably too argumentative, but for goodness sake!!!!!
    If you agree that djrich1 is wrong to use the £2 out of date Finish MOC please press "thanks" for this post.
    If you disagree with him (bluewkd??!!) why thank him for his comments!!

    What's a moner??!!

    As you can see, I'm not in a very good mood today. Sorry:o
    Love you all (well most of you anyway).

    I thank everyone wether I agree or disagree with their comments because I think if nobody posted on here then there would be no thread. For the record I actually gave some of my finish away that I had left over on the last day rather than throw them away or use after the expiry. Have a drink of Torres and cheer yourself up hilly :beer:
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    So in your eyes - you can justify using out of date coupons by the fact that Tescos accept the coupons against products they are not meant for? The fact that Tescos have this policy is to your benefit yet you screw them over by knowingly giving them coupons that they will not be able to redeem because they are past their redemption date. If you have used the Finish coupon 4 times a day since it came out then by my reconing then you have saved a minimum of £624 - surely that is enough? That is worked on that I have had the coupon since 1st May (I know some have had it longer). Presenting out of date coupons is not maxing the MOC policy long term - it is a sure fire way to get yourself banned from your store, coupons banned from your store and/or nationally.

    Think we all agree with you Hilly (Apart from the gotta be a bloke bit :rolleyes:) but there is a certain element of not feeding the troll here too..... I think be worried if you live in the Shrewsbury area but nationally one idiot won't make a heck of a lot of difference but then I'm sure they are not the only one........

    I check every coupon before handing them to the SA. Check they are in date, that Mr T's sell the product and never hand in two the same.

    I take a long term view. Keep Mr T's happy by not breaking the "coupon code" and that in turn makes me a very happy woman.

    For example today I went to Mr T's and paid around 50p for over £30 worth of shopping.

    I would not want to jeopardise being able to shop every couple of day for the sake of using an out of date coupon.

    Just my opinion of course, but every one on here would complain like crazy if Mr T's stopped taking coupons, never mind the effect on our purses and wallets.

    So let common sense prevail please and we will all be better off.

    :)
