WARNING: Coupon Police Alert
Comments

I wonder what the Asda I used to work in is like now. I used to work on the checkouts and had no problem with redeeming vouchers. The only ones I ever refused were out of date ones and Tesco Clubcard vouchers!
When I was there we did have the 10% rule, but only if the coupons you redeemed were on things you didn't actually purchase. If you bought 1 item you had a coupon for you could still use it for that one item, even if it was 50% off.
I even used vouchers on occasion, I used to get them in a TV mag, they were worth more than the magazine cost lol.0 -

Better the self-scan alerting an SA rather than Security, as in Asda.

I think one of the main reasons stores have stopped accepting vouchers for things the person didn't actually buy is because people would often take the mick.
I worked at ASDA and very regularly had people trying to get £10-£15 off using vouchers for a £20 shop when they hadn't bought any of the products.
We were told they were allowed 10% and I'd often be generous and give about 15% and then get moaned at.
I even had someone trying to pay for their entire shopping in vouchers for things they hadn't bought and expecting change!
People ruin things for everyone else by thinking they're entitled!0
