    I don't have one in mine either - it must be regional boohoo

    I've just been through the stuff I put from my Mail on Sunday in the recycling bin and can't find the booklet so it must be regional - I'm in the North East.

    Hi, Thanks so much for details of 'Mail On Sunday' vouchers - don't normally buy it but did today.
    That extra coupon booklet was in my polythene-sealed supplement section: 'Summer 2006 Voucher Booklet'. I'm in the S.E., it had £1.80 worth of grocery coupons for anywhere & a voucher for a free pack of Quorn chicken-style dippers from Sainsbury (RRP £1.99). Booklet was small - have a good rummage thru' before you chuck out the supplements!
    If you got a booklet I make that £5.60 plus the free Quorn product - WOW!
    My dad got the Times & there was a M & S Summer Eating booklet with 3 x £5 vouchers off - 1 to be used each time you spend £35 on groceries. These would only be able to be used at M & S though wouldn't they or would Tesco take them do you think?

    I rushed out to get my Mail on Sunday but there wasn't a summer 2006 booklet included. I am in sunny Tropical South Wales.

    Bought my Mail in Coventry - no summer 2006 booklet for me either :(
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    Hello again koupon-kween, from Coupon-mad!
    I'm the SE too and was v. pleased when I totted up the coupons when I got home with my Mail on Sunday! Just wish I'd bought more copies but by then good old Tesco was shut...may ask my local newagent tomorrow am if she has any left!

    I had the same thought about the M&S coupons but I doubt they will scan at Tesco...unless anyone knows different?

    Finally, (in answer to earlier posts) the only reason the Burgen bread ones from the tesco magazine didn't scan was because they have the Tesco logo which tells you to actually buy the product (lol!). But the mail on Sunday Burgen bread ones look fine!

    ;)

    I had the same thought - as I said above, I get my copy delivered at the moment. Dashed off to Tesco, to get another one ( or two !), but the racks were empty. Not sold, just the 'keen' staff bundling all the unsold copies up - it was only 3.45pm, and the shop was still open, and busy, so assume staff were keen to get off prompt at 4.
    As to getting a copy tomorow, you may be in luck with your 'local' friendly newsagent. Tend to find big stores have to empty shelves and unsold copies are collected as next days papers are delivered - unless anyone knows any different.
    When coupons were in mail to collect dvds from Smiths, and I couldn't get every day, staff at smiths said they didn't keep any dvds from previous day, they had to be returned before got the new ones!

    "Finally, (in answer to earlier posts) the only reason the Burgen bread ones from the tesco magazine didn't scan was because they have the Tesco logo which tells you to actually buy the product (lol!). But the mail on Sunday Burgen bread ones look fine!"

    Thanks for that. Not only wouldn't Tesco take mine, but neither would Asda - perhaps they didn't stock that particular loaf !! :confused: Hopefully I will have better luck with the latest 2 !!:D

    Plus a 'Summer 2006 Voucher Book' in association with Quorn, as Sunnydoo mentions
    It contains several money off coupons, eg
    Quorn chicken dippers - free for every reader
    20p off Vileda any 2-in-1 range brush
    15p off Warburtons x 2
    25p off So Good
    and quite a few more
    PLUS some competitions to enter:T
    Think if you never buy the Mail on Sunday, Today might be the day to get it for a change !!:D

    i'm in the s.e. too but all i got was a boots summer booklet. maybe these are randomly put into the papers which is a shame, i'd actually be using them to buy the mentioned products for once :p

    Gave in my 'allowance of 3' coupons at Tesco this morning - 2 of the higher value 1's from the Mail yesterday plus a Wilkinson Quattro razor coupon I already had (worth looking out for these on the razor packs as it's for £3!) picked up the Quorn product & that voucher was accepted even tho' it's marked Sainsbury.
    Just looked my my receipt now home: Sub total £25.54, multibuy savings £5.38, Coupons inc.Quorn £7.19, total to pay £12.97 - lovely! :-)
