    I think I must have read through the entire thread now but have only tried using MOCs at Tesco twice. The first time I was told that the coupponet ones can only be used if buying the product. Today in a different store (I did not try the coupponet ones as I did not have any on me) I was told that MOCs for £1 or more off the value could not be used unless the item was purchased.

    The MOCs they would not accept:
    £1 off any l'oreal paris (from cosmo magazine I think)
    £1 off Corsodyl (printable)
    £1 off King of Shaves (printable)

    But they did take the 50p off Domestos Grot buster, 35p off Domestos, 50p off CIF multipurpose and 50p off CIF actifizz. Also had a few McCain ones from the local paper and a kellogs coupponet for free box of cereal (which I bought) so go about £7 quid off a £15 shop.

    Has anyone successfully used the king of shaves and corsodyl ones or heard of any restriction on the value of a MOC when not purchasing the product?

    My mum was told the same and they rejected the Finish £2 one.

    She had been using them 3 months and there was only one day left till they expired, so she didn't make a fuss. Its all down to the SA mainly.

    ...Hope you are feeling a bit better Blue and your daughter too jeferey.
    Thanks KarenBB - she's OK but Tamiflu making her feel sick but DD2 had sore throat this morning - oh no :eek: - I've just rung home and she's not as bad so we're going to give Tamiflu a miss - doesn't seem to be helping. Apart from The Times I haven't used a MOC since Sunday - this is unheard of - I bet Tesco are missing me - NOT! :rotfl:
    Hope you are doing OK Blue.
    If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try - oh bu99er that just cheat :D

  • eventually got my parents to try tesco at the ricoh coventry and they were told they have stopped taking coupons ..after weeks of persuasion i wasnt popular lol :confused::confused::confused:
  • Hi all, not used this thread in ages, just getting back into now, as my local Mr T's has started taking internet coupons again, I've been getting by with the newspaper/mags ones. Would like to say thankyou for all the work that has gone into the first page and all your hard work in finding them.
    One small question if poss, I actually buy the boating mag, which has a money off coupon posted on the front page, anyone know how I can get it to print with a clear barcode?? its a .pdf by the way, spent 3 hours yesterday trying. Thanks again.

    First step is to put printer in the highest quality print mode, and then experiment with the size of the coupons.

    But some i have tried just wern't good enough for me, so i didn't use them. I don't like none scan coupons - thay have a knack of making my face go red, like i've done something wrong. :o

    just got back from T's and i was trouted by a young male SA.

    He would only take half my coupons, i went to CS desk and asked what the coupon policy was 10% the three Employees said in unison.

    I said is that the store policy then, no they all replied thats Tesco company policy. No it isn't i said, oh yes it is they all said and it went on like that for a couple of minutes (like some Tesco Value pantomime)

    I explained that i was in the store a couple of days ago and had no problems, you were lucky then is all they could say.

    I produced my printout of the policy and asked them where it said that, two scurried off and the one SA left went to find a manager.

    And guess what after speaking to the manager for ten minutes all they could say was its up to the store managers discrection.

    AAAAAHHHHH :mad: :mad: :mad:

    With great trepidation I went to Hovis email and decided to give it another go........and.......it worked....IP address is definitely different with new BT HUB...before with Netgear first 2 numbers stayed the same and all others changed, whenever I unplugged everything...now all numbers change, so thought I would give it a go....not saying try it...on your own heads be it !!!Don't want you lot picking on me if you get doubled banned....

    Tried the Sol Beer one and nothing happened, it went to couponnet and just like the bad old days, just the stripey downloading coupon thing...had email saying I can contact them if it didn't print...will wait and see if 1 turns up in the post....why is this happening?...sometimes working and sometimes not...blooming annoying...
