    Not a printable but here goes eveyone.
    Vue cinemas stand with hundreds of Oreo coupons on it last night.
    20p off long date until 1/12/09.
    Sainsburys had a bacardi breezer promo truck outside but packing away when I got there. Searched for discarded coupons but couldn't find any. Anyone else tell me what I missed? Maybe worth looking out for this.
    Hope that helps


    They're probably all up for sale on ebay:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    swannee_D,

    just let me assure you.......it is not me. there are two posters on this thread who know me very well, you ARE NOT one of them. both of them will tell you i would just post to say it, not hide. on the matter of speaking out...........seeing as you are speaking to me, i personally think you are a very provocative poster. I don't understand why you do this, I for one have done/said nothing to upset you, yet you insult me with this post.........why not just ASK me. I have no need to hide from you. We are all on this thread for the same reason, but i think your reason to be here is to be rude and unappreciative of other posters. difference of opinion i can live with, provocotive posters.........i can do without.
    awaiting an appology............:confused:

    :D Well my little friend seems we are both in the firing line at the moment! As I know you very well, I would stake my life on it that if you had something to say (like myself) you would come out and say it!:D

    Pathetic attempts to upsett people and go out of their way to be rude seem completely pointles to me!:rolleyes: Maybe they need to take up fishing, golfing, or even boxing:D It may well reduce any stress or anxiety they are suffering from and relieve us from their pentup frustrations:confused:

    For someone that comes across as quite well educated, they seem to be protraying themselves as a real NUMB NUTTS! This is a shame as we all enjoy posting on this thread and learning valueble information from each other, and of course having a little bit of fun!:T:T:T

    I have just been told a friend has been rushed into hospital after having a bad headache for three days, it now turns out she has a brain tumour and is extremely poorly! NOW THAT IS WHAT I CALL IMPORTANT! SOORY CAPS SLIPPED AGAIN!!!!

    I think it is time this guy got a grip and stopped [EMAIL="bl@@dy"]bl@@dy[/EMAIL] annoying people! Do you get it now mate!:D Your own quote: put your trust in god above you, be courageous, calm and true! Maybe go and use your time in a more productive way and say a prayer for my friend!

    Sorry Guys, yes I am feeling a bit Tetchy!!!
    Let us carry on with our humour, help and encourangemt and enjoy our lives! Be nice to each other! PLEASE!:D
    We have all taken the bait on this one and have allowed him the time to upsett everyone, maybe in future we should just ignore his comments and soon he will get fed up!

    Hi CT

    I hope your friend health improves soon. When someone is seriously ill it makes us look a little harder at our own lives and be grateful for what we have. Our lives might not be perfect but we are alive and thats what matters.


    So my very best wishes to your friend, for a speedy recovery.

    CT, so sorry to hear that your friend is not doing so well.

    I had Cancer diagnosed 8 years ago this October. I was devastated to begin with - I had felt really "well" up until then.

    Still, I had the treatment (surgery, chemotherapy, then radiotherapy) - all of which made me feel like rolling over and dying....

    But here I am, large as life, and couponing for England.

    Just knowing that your friend has a good friend (YOU !) will be a tremendous support.

    Thinking of you and your friend.

    Sorry to hear about your friend Tilly, hope all will be ok for her. As you say, makes you realize there are far more important things than silly people on here.

    Hope everyone else that's been feeling unwell is feeling better soon.

    Jefferey - lovely news about your foster child. I am sure you are loving every minute of it and it's very rewarding (I don't mean money wise) but in seeing the child develop and often come out of their shell etc - I'm sure you know what I mean.

    :D Well what a wonderful women, you are a true inspiration and a complete breath of fresh air!:T:T:T

    I am sure you love and appreciate everything that life brings you, and boy do you deserve it! I can not imagine what you have been through.
    I watched my Dad die with cancer, watched my Mum suffer twice with bowel cancer and lost my best friend with breast cancer. I suppose I look at life totally different to how I used to. I do not want to be morbid or depressive as things happen and there is nothing we can do about it, only learn to except what is thrown at us and deal with it in a positive way.:D

    I think you are marvelous and I thank you for your kind words;)

    Loads of love Tilly xxxx

    Good 2c u back Moyilla! Hope kids r doing well 2! Have a good shop @ T's coz recently the trouts have been out on full force, lol!:rolleyes::p

    Right ok I just knew I should have stayed at home :o

    Went to Mr T's, got my shopping and went to Checkout's. Started some friendly chat - as you do - and 1 coupon wouln't scan so she had to type it in (lots & lots of tutting) and she missed a number. Then she came across a Farmfood's one. Called over Supervisor who quoted the policy word for word :T She was not a happy bunny.
    "Oh for God's sake" she said.
    "Are you having a bad day?" I asked.
    "No, I am not very well" she said
    "Oh dear that's not good, I know how you feel, I have been sick myself, the last thing you need is a customer with lots of coupons (with a little laugh)" I replied.

    Well, you would have thought I had insulted her.

    "I think this is bloody unbelieveable" she said
    "What?" I said (thinking she ment how good it was using coupons :rolleyes:)
    "Being able to use all these coupons and getting all this money off" she said sternly
    "Well, I am only following Tesco's Policy" I said
    Complete silence while she scanned the rest of the coupons which suited me.
    "That will be 10p please" she said shaking her head.

    I was so annoyed I forgot my receipt which I needed as one of my PC vouchers didn't scan even though I bought the item (Pamper's pull up's)
    I reversed back up the store and was looking at the SA and she was going nuts!!!! She was bright red and saying to other SA's - "It's ridiculas, her shopping came to £47 and she gave me 10p"
    She was in such a flap she did not see me so I walked calmly (very hard I must add lol) and said "If you have a problem with the Policy I am following I suggest you take it up with Tesco Head Office, until then please stick to what you are paid for"
    I took my receipt from the till and was walking away when she shouted "I never said anything to you"
    I said "I'm afraid you did and in front of witnesse's (3 customers behind me) so I don't think your lies will stand up in front of your Checkout Supervisor"

    I was so so embarrassed and furious at her. I wasn't in the mood for a confrontation today :o. I went straight to CS, who were lovely and got her name off the no on the receipt and "advised" to complain in writing :T:T:T

    Anyway, I got a £47.00 shop for 10p after offers etc so my best yet :D:D
