Had a good-ish shop today. As a bonus Branston beans (on offer 3 for £1) were scanning at 3 for 14p. The multi buy reduction was being applied twice so instead of 68p off each deal, it was knocking off 68px2. I'm guessing this is nationwide.

How did you get to know about this or was it just luck?

Hi all' and vas

This happened to me today aswel, and yet, this is a store i visit every week. CA said they had had a memo last week that NO INTERNET coupons were to be accepted (i used £10 worth on wed in this store) Still, i will go back and have another try.

HTH

I think internet coupons days are numbered as far as Tesco accepting them without the product being purchased is concerned. Just my opinion.

I have been couponing for a few years and things seem to be changing. The general feeling from stores I find now is that they are at the very least, wary of internet coupons or indeed in some stores they have already decided to stop accepting them.

But if a Store Manager played the 'Manager's Discretion' card with me I would have come back with 'yes, I know the policy allows discretion on internet printed coupons, but not on original manufacturers' coupons, so at least I can still use one of each of those each time' (stated as a matter of fact, not as a question).

I only started using coupons about a month ago, and the way i see it is....if 7 or 8 out of every 10 SA's accept my coupons that is a saving i never enjoyed before.
Although, i do think it was just bad luck today. As it came to my turn, the young SA was relieved for a toilet break...and a supervisor ended up serving me. I sort of expected this as soon as she took over!!

It was luck, as I don't usually check my receipts that carefully. The multi-buy was kicking in for the beans as well as the spaghetti at the same time, even though I had only got the beans. I went around again to test it and lo and behold I got 24 cans of beans for £1.12!! The SA was really shocked saying she hadn't seen anything like it in her 3 years working at the store. This was in Tesco, Monkspath, Solihull.
