    = anything. Took me a few reads to work that one out :rotfl:
    Was hoping to nab some of these. Perhaps some boxes have a promo on the front re MOC, will look in my local later.

  • Got an update for anyone who is interested, Ive just rang my local store up and I got to speak to the CSM re MOCs and basically Im not doing anything wrong and am within my rights to use the MOCs as stated in their policy. She asked when I was going in next and I said this Sunday, she said she should be in and if there was any problems to ask for her and if she isnt in to get CS to ring her at home to ok it :D She did say they cant take Farmfoods as they wont scan due to problems (which Im not that bothered really). I told her about Sundays episode where I couldnt use any and that they had changed the policy 2wks ago - she said they hadnt changed it except for the FF MOC, she also said their staff are being re-trained as to what they can accept/scan. I thanked her then hung up and she mentioned again if I have any problems to ask her etc - so heres hoping for trouble-free shopping from now in :D:T:T

    Sorry but that would spoil things for the majority of people who play by Tesco's own rules.

    The fact of the matter is that the majority of useable coupons come off the internet and what's more many of them can be printed multiple times quite legitamately (i.e. where the coupon producer does not prohibit it or unique code the coupons). The solution is to inhibit people forging smart coupons not prevent people using internet coupons altogether!

    I even had one SA who was unsure if they could accept smart coupons. perhaps not accepting smart coupons would be a good way for Tesco's to go :rotfl: :confused:. At least that way there would be no issue with Tesco not being able to redeem coupons.

    I understand that you want to "save" the policy, however your suggestion, if taken up by Tesco's, would render the policy obsolete, ruining things for hard-working people and families who use Tesco's coupon policy legitimately, legally and within Tesco's own rules. These people use the policy to either save money or to provide a decent standard of living for them and their kids and suggesting to Tesco that they don't allow internet coupons just jeapordises this for them.

    Obviously Tescos have made a commercial decision to operate their coupon policy in the way that they do. The fact that they haven't rescinded it yet and are still working through all the problems with some coupons and manufacturers would indicate to me that they want to continue with this policy because it is an overall profitable policy. So the complete revocation of the favourable provisions of the Tesco coupon policy doesn't seem likely in the foreseeable future. So I don't see the need to rock the boat with HO.

    JMHO though... I know you mean well

    I whole heartedly agree, don't rock the boat! Plus, I was told by a cashier that soon the till is going to be able to tell if a coupon has already been used as the till will reject a coupon (with a unique ID number) if that number has already been accepted therefore making photocopies a thing of the past! Hope I explained that right!
