if anyone has the fishfingers from warby's site, 30p off, best to get then in t's for only 68p


Birds Eye 10 Omega 3 Fish Fingers 280g


HALF PRICE Was £1.96 Now 98p - valid from 26/10/2009 until 08/11/2009

Inside the pack of 10 Birds Eye Cod Fish Fingers I bought at Waitrose for £1.99 this week were 2 x 50p off mocs for your next purchase, valid until December. I expect that each pack is supposed to have one moc inside though (nothing to say so on the pack).

Not sure if there may be a similar moc in the Omega 3 version, worth a look!

ive heard tesco's have stopped doing them full stop now though?

The new Tesco policy is to take the coupon as long as you buy the product on the coupon, so it is still worth printing internet coupons if you want to buy the product.

The ISP (institute of Sales Promotion) is claiming the credit for the Tesco policy change:rotfl:

Tesco changes coupon policy
Further to the ISP's campaign to stop coupon misuse, Tesco has changed its coupon policy, and will now only be accepting coupons if the relevant product is in the shopping basket.

The retailer is currently instructing checkout staff of the change in its policy. Notices will be posted in stores to inform customers of the new rules.


Annie Swift, chief executive of the ISP, says: “Tesco’s policy change is great news for brand owners, many of whom have been put off using coupons because of fears over possible misredemption. There are some retailers, however, who are still allowing consumers to redeem coupons for products they haven’t bought, and we need to get them to rethink their stance.”

The ISP stepped up its campaign against coupon misuse a year ago, and only days ago sent members an email alerting them to potential problems with Tesco’s previous coupon rules, as outlined below.

Consumers save roughly £500m a year by using money off coupons in retailers. However, the ISP believes that far more brands would issue coupons, if they could be sure that they were going to be used properly. Tesco’s move should significantly cut coupon misuse, which will lead to more brands issuing coupons and so more savings for legitimate consumers.

The ISP has had a number of other major successes in its campaign against coupon misuse, including coverage of the issue in the national press and the grocery and marketing trade press, as well as on the highly-influential consumer website moneysavingsexpert.com.

In addition, after discussions with the ISP, online auction site eBay.co.uk clamped down on bulk sales of money-off coupons.

Until now, Tesco had argued that it was impractical to ask its checkout staff to make sure that coupons were only redeemed against the right products. Indeed, the ISP has only just alerted its members to a clause in Tesco’s terms and conditions which stated that “due to the flow of customers at the point of sale, the Buyer’s policy (in accordance with industry practice) is to redeem all coupons presented by customers and not to check non-retailer-specific coupons in supermarkets.”

The T&Cs also said that Tesco would deduct the value of coupons against a brand’s account “without requiring proof of purchase.”

The ISP does not know if Tesco has changed its T&Cs to reflect its new policy yet.

Although Tesco’s policy change is a major victory, the ISP will continue its campaign against coupon misuse. Annie Swift observes: “There are some retailers who are still allowing coupon misredemption by consumers. More significant, however, is the problem of fake coupons. It is too easy to create realistic-looking coupons that may fool consumers or inexperienced checkout staff. We need to find a solution to both these issues if the coupon market is to achieve its full potential.”

However, I'm not sure I would send the voucher off to HO if it's just the dodgy printed screenshot one as they may point out it's not the original and they may think you photocopied it. I certainly wouldn't advise using it at Waitrose anyway (I don't care about Tesco as there's no coupon policy to protect any more, just wanted to warn you what response you may get). But IMHO it wasn't meant to be a printable.But if you have a Metro original voucher then go for it, they should have taken it in T.HTH

I used the online printable yesterday at T, b4 I collected the perfume you know which one BW...., I did asked one of the strict supervisor that I know & she said oh., thats ok as long as u spend over £30, so, moi happily hopped to the perfume counter pick the one I like & hopped back to checkout, my somerfield coupon was ok, but when it comes to waitrose printable (cashier wasnt sure so she asked another supervisor - he wasnt sure too - so off he goes with my coupon to look for the Manager - he came back Manager said -"OK"). Total spend over 30 squid, total paid as usual "NIL" :rotfl::D
