That has a certain Karma:A:beer:

Gill, I bet after seeing you, they will have another topic to talk about. "Can you guys remember that women who got banned at our store".

Ok, ok I couldn't resist, what did I miss???

I hope I haven't got anyone in trouble by posting the link to Ebay the other night :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

Apologies if I have, I just posted the link as I was curious as to where the coupon was, not to bring attention to someone!!!! In fact I didn't even know they were doing something wrong until a poster told me

Tho the policy exists and we'r being advised of this via TL's office the stores appear to have massive problems on accepting it! And, as it appears, they can't seem 2 get the policy abolished (coz it comes from the high mighties, who knows?) the stores endeavour to hound & harass cmrs who use coupons... and some of the staff being BIG trouts have taken upon them to chase the couponners... might b an idea to contact TL's office & put the trouts name forward for a medal of 'how to try to get rid of a cmr!':p Unfortunately, when the GM is involved too then, they have all the backing they need from their Head Office...

i've sent me email off to Terry so lets see how far we get this time, I had one letter complaint lost, one ignored. I rang c/s who have swapped the coupon side from Dundee to Cardiff (i was told) and the lad said that they should take farmfoods and should take coupons, especially if they did yeasterday! He was going report it etc, but i told him not too as sir terry is on the case and i think i will get less fobbed off the higher up it gets. Also the c/s in the shop said upstairs said they cant redeem the f/f coupon as has no barcode, i advised they write it off and don't redeem. The guy on the phone just confirmed that rather than me go off to farmfoods they - in his words "take a hit" on this too keep the custom. Well my £100 went to Asda today. He also said that they should not have a 25% cap on coupons but then said managers discrettion. A load Cods-Wallop :rotfl:

Morning all. I was going to go to T's last night to use my Huggies (+ others of course) but plans were thwarted by arrival of our first foster child . I will have to train her in the use of MOC's but I will be very careful giving her the scissors to cut them all out :eek:

Oooh Jeferey, I just saw this post, congratulations :T:T You must be very pleased, I hope you are all settling in together ;) xxxx

I'm sure you'll have a great shop moyilla - don't stay away from T. And you know you need the fresh air to put the roses back in your cheeks!

I always find the worst troutings happen when you are not expecting them anyway. When you nip into T in a happy mood for a quick coupon-shop, that's when the preponderance of trouts spot you and swoop menacingly...

One trout at my local (who knows me and my coupons, hates the policy but can't do owt about it) told me the other day I couldn't use coupons against 2 magazines which were in with my groceries. I just smiled and removed both the said magazines, left them for her to put back! 'Ok I will buy them next time' I said pleasantly (she knew full well that really meant 'I'll buy them with coupons when you're not on Supervisor duty' lol!:rotfl:).

She was making it up as she went along but it wasn't worth a fight. That store has no such rule BTW (admittedly they wouldn't want me buying a telly with coupons - but two weekly 85p mags in with a total £30 groceries shop? Pathetic really.).

You haven't got anyone into trouble;):D
The ebay poster was selling lots of coupons (hundreds of them ) all with the same PIN number on them.
By Huggies changing back to couponnet it makes it harder for people to sell multiples of identical coupons, for which the store is unlikely to be redeemed.

If the store isn't being redeemed, they will obviously question why they should accept worthless bits of paper into the till.

As it would be impossible to train all the SAs to know if an identical PIN number had already been passed , it will only be days, weeks, or possibly months before the knock-on affect hits store policy or national policy, depending on whether it gets spotted at cash office, sorting centre, or clearing centre.

Coupon-mad

A bit off-topic but I just renewed our Tesco car insurance and mentioned to them about the £40 giftcard new customers are being offered.

Lady said she could 'only' offer me a £30 giftcard as an existing customer 'or I could give you 2,000 clubcard points'...

What do you think I opted for?:D;)
