    To the top peeps in charge of the top pages!:
    One of the most useful tips from this thread for me personally has been the Nestle Picapac (£2 worth of non-internet mocs in each £1.19 pack). The thread is so long I can't find who it was who originally spotted and posted it, but whoever you are - thank you.
    I've bought LOADS (Nov and Dec use-by dates have the vouchers and you can see the black dotted line round the base of the moc if you pull the cellophane down slightly on the packet before purchase).
    Basically you are being paid 10p per serving! Free breakfast for months and months for the whole family. Mocs are valid til 2011.
    So, my point is - do you think it would be a good idea to have a section on the top page for mocs inside purchased goods such as this? I've looked and can't find it, though I am a bit daft so maybe I've missed it.
    :o




    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    I suggested this ought to be on top page back in May - was told this is a PRINTABLE mocs thread and so I shut up!!

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    ...
    I posted the info because I was asked to do it so it can be put on the first page,hence it's in blue and bold.... I've also included how to spot them and the dates...so all your points have been covered:confused:

    well done moyilla on your "winnings"......!!!!!!

    I am still facing the same problems at my local T, irrespective of showing the email from Sir Terry, to the branch manager.

    Its always hit and miss. Many times they will reject the coupons then calling the Duty manager.....and the same scene again.

    Really fade up of it.....

    Hi Guys
    Quick question please -
    Warby's promotion - if you get a FREE item moc, how do you know how much it's worth?

    In this case it is a free pack of Anchor 250g - bar code 9915301450007.

    Do I have to buy the product? If I don't buy the product do I have to provide evidence to the SA as to the value of the product?!!

    Thanks.

    I've always just get the free product, it just seems easier that way. If you don't want to get the free item and your store allows you not to have to get the free item then pick one up to take to the till that they can scan to see the price and then take it off your bill.

    Hi
    Ditto
    I couldn't bring myself to throw away the euro coupons and have a pile of over 100. So I too would value some advice as to what to do with them. They're worth about £40.

    Sell them on eBay.

    I think the coupons don't scan EVEN if the product has been purchased as the barcode doesn't start with a 99... when this happened last time (I had purchased the product) I emailed their Cmr Services which r quite poor on replying back... needless to say no reply or acknowledgement was ever rec'd...:mad:

    sorry im new to the whole coupon thing. where does everyone get theirs from, this list, another website or another section? I feel like im going round in circles and not sure how people find so many coupons relevant to what they are buying. Any advice would be appricated. Sorry if this has been asked before 42 pages is a lot to read through!

    Hi everyone,

    Been to Mr T's and guess what?

    I got an apology from the DM!!!!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

    He was standing behind me at the till I was at and I instantly thought, oh great here we go :rolleyes:

    He came up to me and said, "I am sorry I never ment to make things difficult for you. I have put a copy of our detailed coupon policy behind each till for you. If you ever have any problems again ask them to read it"

    I nearly fainted, I can honestly say I was gobsmacked!!!!

    I said to him "Yes you did make me feel uncomfortable and I was highly embarrassed at times"

    He said he also saw my email I wrote to Sir Terry & the reply (which believe me I detailed every incident especially about him) :eek::eek::eek:

    So I can now shop at ease at my store thank God and I am so so glad I followed everything though so thank you to everyone for all the support.

    I hope my experiences for newbies can help and reassure them that if they stick to the policy to the tee, be polite and keep your calm, keep a note of your bad experiences, you will hopefully get the end result that I have.

    I feel quite proud of myself (a shameful boast sorry) :o:o :rotfl:

    :DWELL DONE!!!!!:T:T:T

    YOU SHOULD FEEL PROUD TOO:D

    ALTHOUGH I DO REMEMBER SOMEONE ON HERE COMPLAINING AND THEY GOT BANNED FROM THEIR MR T'S:eek::eek::eek:

    MAYBE IT SHOULD BE FORWARDED ON TO THEIR STORE:D

    ANYWAY, WELL DONE AGAIN, GET YOURSELF A GLASS OF WINE AND A PAT ON THE BACK YOU LITTLE SWEETIE!:T:T:T

    TILLY XXX
