    never mind got tescos back again today done a lovely tour of tescos in the area, and had some r & r's to take my mind off things ....hehehehehe...( shall i go back in my straight jacket now )
    I'm still an r&r virgin. Tried it once and it didn't work so had to take back my leg of lamb and get my £16 back from Customer Services saying that my dp had already bought one for the sunday roast. Very embarassing!:whistle:

    I'm not sure if the R&Rs advertised on the Tesco mis-priced thread are shop-specific. Do you know CTC? [Sorry I'm off thread....]

    Does it physically stop you scanning more than 10% of coupons ?? ;)

    Now there's a revelation... why did I think it was only Tesco and Waitrose that took coupons? Asda does as well? What other supermarkets do? I went to Asda today (not my usual supermarket but was passing - and it seemed quite a bit cheaper than Tesco's, especially the clothes in George). I if can use coupons there too, it may be worth more than the odd visit.

    Although i regularly try, my Asda will not allow any coupons unless you buy the item.
    So its a good job I've got Tesco...
