  • Re the Tesco vouchers, most of the money off is for non-food items, ie no fruit & veg, it will be interesting to see what sundays money off is for as that is normally non-food as well.

    Also

    The 'free' digibox offer in the mail is shockingly bad, 60 yes 60 vouchers and then £25p&p (it must be heavy or is it not free!?

    best to buy one from tesco for £9.97!

    poor old people who are confused by the whole digital thing and who buy the mail will get ripped off by this.

    Not sure where you have got this from ?

    The only order form currently available online (which says)

    "PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS ORDER FORM IF YOU ARE COLLECTING 60
    TOKENS AND APPLYING FOR THE FREE DIGI-BOX"


    has 2 offers for a 10 or ZERO token collect

    "Set top digi-box, I have enclosed 10 tokens £17.99"
    "Set top digi-box, no tokens required £24.99"

    £25 P&P :eek:
  • I used the deli coupon today and it wouldn't scan. Had spent over £5 on cornish pasties, half price ham, half price cooked chicken, pork pies and scotch eggs (all for school packed lunches, now in freezer!!)
    Team Leader put it through as a non-scan.

    DAILY MIRROR

    FREE - LEGO - STAR WARS TOY - #1 of 6 - Coupon redemption at WHSMITH or TOYS 'R' US (or by POST)

    <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>



    this wouldn't appear to apply in scotland - certainly nothing that we can see in the paper & nothing on page 15 as indicated in other post. shame they don't seem to mention that in the adverts they have all over kids tv.

    i take it up here the offer is via the daily record.... (thanks frugal rock for posting that)

    we have one disappointed 7yo :( too late now to go buy the record & get to wh smiths.
  • As per the title the DM voucher on Household £2/£8 works on anything as a NSS coupon... no spend required... tried & tested on my shop...:D:D:D HTHS ;)

    at least something good- these Mail vouchers seem to be getting worse each time they do them- they were useable a few month ago, now its like "10% off here, 20% off there, but only if you spend £££ and for some reason reduced items don't count!" Like its not hard enough already to spend that much at a time!
  • Used both meat coupons but had to be put through as non scan, I bought 3 meat packs for £10 to use them.

    Why don't you buy the Daily Record Mon-Fri and send away for the Lego (£5.99 p+p), you only need 5 coupons and unless you are there early they will run out of stock anyway (I went to ToysRUs and they had none left).
    HTH FiFi :)
