  • I have to be honest that even when I shop at Tesco with coupons, my shopping is almost £30 more than when I go to Morrisons. Not a clue why as we tend to eat the same sort of stuff week in week out.

    In future I will be going back to Morrisons and doing a top up at Lidl for stuff I have always bought there. I will still go to T's for the clothes etc and some stuff I can't get elsewhere but tbh, the deli in our local one is [EMAIL="!!!!"]!!!![/EMAIL] and so is the veg.

    As for the checkout girls losing their jobs I bet half of them wouldn't shop there if it wasn't for discount! I know loads who go to the Co-Op or Morrisons!:confused:

    The whole point of our boycott (temporary) is to hopefully make T's sit up and take notice of their lost custom. Thus, bringing in at least a morphed version of the old coupon policy. Had they trained their staff, old trouts, customer service managers, supervisors properly in the first place there would not have been an abuse of the policy.
    I must admit I have enjoyed shopping elsewhere in recent weeks. :T:T

    :T :T couldn't have said it better mad.:T:T..........i haven't enjoyed shopping elsewhere though.....correction, DH hasn't :D:D
    sorry peeps, not found any mocs yet icon9.gif but i am still looking. :p
    keep up the boycott folks......every little helps.
  • :beer: Made some new bargain hunting friends at Waitys this afternoon. First met them at the hot chicken counter where they persuaded the assistant to sell them 3 hot chickens for £3.50:T, I got the same deal. Then I bumped into them at the bakery buying reduced rolls :rotfl:. They joked "are you following us?" :rolleyes: then saw them again :eek: having a last look in the reductions chiller before heading to the checkouts.
    Definately worth a visit just before closing time :rotfl:

  • Just a heads up I think the Morrisons Robinson Squash offer of 50p has ended.

    Picked some up today, and they scanned for £1.07 but above the isle was a huge banner saying 50p, so the checkout assistant, rather than having to put 6 bottles back, took them off and then charged them through at 50p.

    she say she didn't realise how pleasant the staff are in others supermarkets compared to our T especially customer service as it is a trial every time you take anything back - they can be so rude and look dangers at you if you are overcharged - they dont mention DTD and when you do they treat you as if you are trying to steal from them rather than asking then to adhere to their own policy and mumble under their breath while they glare at you and one particular girl even asked my friend a few weeks ago if she was 'happy now' she had got something for free:eek: and glared at her, my friend was livid and we haven't been to T since as the coupon policy came in then too.
    she never did use coupons - she's loaded:rotfl:-but says the whole experience of shopping is much more enjoyable when you are treated politely
    I am not a beige person:D
  • Well time is fast approaching for the end of the 4 week trial of not accepting coupons. Does anyone who works for MrT know if the boycotting has actually worked,lets hope so.

    Had a lovely shop in M&S this morning. All the food that was on the feed 4 for £15 was half price, so got the scrummy salmon for £5 the ready roast Turkey £3.99 and the strawberry and clotted cream cheesecake for £1.74.

    Then went to farmfoods, walkers 6 pack £1, milk £1, loo roll £2 for 9, 2 loaves for £1.50.
