    I've just been to my local T's and as I had the £6.80 pedigree moc I thought I'd ask if they sold it. The dm checked their system which said yes, then took me to the shelves, the shelf was empty but the label was there that said 15kg pedigree price £24 odd so she said it was ok to use. When I went to the till she came to the sa and told them the coupon was ok as they did sell it.
    I'm juts hoping it was the right one.

    Really!?!?! where do you get the £6.80 coupon from?? The highest i've seen is £3.80 and T's definitly don't sell that one!?

    Ouch,thought i'd go to T's in Clowne to get my mail today,being cheeky i asked how much they'd been taken for by the magazine coupons and was told it was just over £20k in 6 hours,after i'd picked myself up off the floor i asked if they'd now stopped taking coupons,no was the reply...but they'll only take original ones now,no internet,fair play to them,they don't have to do it.

    wow,i decided to catch up on here after speaking to someone in the street yesterday,for all those interested the store that got hammered with the magazine coupons was the Clowne store in derbyshire
    Can't wait to give them a call tomorrow! ;)
    heres my suggestion,if T's are to carry on taking coupons then why not tell people NO CLUBCARD,NO COUPONS,i have nothing to hide,i use coupons,just not in Clowne,whether T's could implement it i don't know but one thing for sure,those that genuinely use coupons to T's policy would/should have nothing to hide/worry about,at least this way it may weed out the peolpe who abuse it and ruin it for all the one's who coupon responsibly
    Whatever changes they made to their policy, it still wouldn't be correctly and fairly implemented. They've got a decent policy at the moment - all they have to do is implement it correctly.

    i think so as to avoid embarrassment all tescos stores should put up a notice to inform people what the rules are at that store, that way everyone will know the rules and all customers will know what its all about
    As a further thought, they already put up notices about the DTD policy at each store and it doesn't make a blind bit of difference as far as getting the staff to universally implement the policy.

    So they received about 10,000 coupons? Didn't they notice nearly 2,000 coupons coming thru the till every hour and think it unusual?

    I have decided I would prefer not to update the first page anymore, I'd be grateful if a volunteer came forward as soon as possible to take over, I'll update it for the next week or so.

    I suggest BW :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::D:p. Wud suggest VC but VC cannot handle Tech & discount at the same time, it will be like working full time! :p On 2nd thought BW & VC no good they are far too busy. How about Swannee :)

    p.s also about the ebayer selling the pampers £1 mos noticed theyve sold £300+ of these over last couple of weeks it has to be fraud and should be stopped

    You can report if you like email to :- [EMAIL="consumerservicesdeptuk@kcc.com"]consumerservicesdeptuk@kcc.com[/EMAIL]
    then sit back & see what we get ie: compliment vouchers for taking time to contact them.

    Found this if anyone is interested. :- Will be ideal for those ppl who are going to London GFS

    http://www.southernrailway.com/


    http://www.southernrailway.com/main.php?page_id=499

    A range of advance purchase tickets are available for as little as £3.00 one way per person, if you are travelling to/ from selected routes on Southern services. With an applicable railcard you can make an even greater saving.

    Advance tickets are valid for travel at any time or day of the week however these are quota controlled and sold as single tickets only. They will also require a compulsory reservation for each separate ticket purchased*. Once reserved, you will be able to sit anywhere in standard class

    If you have shop there b4 & know their policy (ie : accept printable coupons & mfg coupons), why didn't you ask him to call the supervisor? or challenge him. Customer is always right (if we have nothing to hide).
