the others will tell you I avoid touching this thread unless it gets out of hand , correct place for jokes is Funny money , correct place for freebies is the freebies part of the forum.

I don't read every post but remove those I spot

been through the thread and removed all freebies , competitions and jokes

seeing as this thread is starting to take up too much of my time I'm thinking of reverting it to two seperate threads as it used to be , one for coupons only here (Like the Tesco No Chat Thread) and move a chat thread to the arms.

MOVING THREADS TO DT/ARMS

Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move discussions from the MoneySaving boards if they’re not related to MoneySaving to help everyone find the MoneySaving tips and discussion quicker (please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to Discussion Time/The Arms. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

oh dear 2 of my post have been removed, if anyone wants the links for a free chefs hat or free condoms pm me, lol

Another one of mine got moved - this is getting silly. I understand the thinking about moving posts but I like the fact that on this thread we help each other out with COUPONS:rolleyes: and maybe a few other things as well. My last post that was moved - see here I thought was helpful to this thread as it mentioned the Plenty MOC and Wilkinson's offer. The free iTunes download is already on the newspaper summary so it seems daft to start another thread for that.
I'm getting a bit fed up with all this Big Brother stuff and it's putting me off posting - surely at the end of the day that's what this site is all about - helping each other out and making / saving a bit of money along the way . I personally would not like 2 threads and would leave it as it is and not move / delete as many posts - people will find them anyway if they are searching for something.

Anyway, rant over :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. It's snowing well here in Sheffield (sorry - does this get moved to the Weather thread:rolleyes:), take care everyone.

I've asked people not to posts freebies etc in this thread , I've moved every freebie thats been posted since my last request to the correct areas of the forum as everyone is well aware.

it's not Big brother , the threads were originally seperate but merged by popular request

I understand that Browntoa and I did include a freebie (but as I said this was already on the Newspaper Summary) but I also let people know about the legitimate use of a COUPON from page 1 of this thread which they may well have missed if they were not fellow couponers, so I would have thought my post was more suited to this thread -sorry if I was wrong!

The "drivel thread" is still open and available to us to keep everything in the same place (ish) http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1774963

I used to have this thread, the drivel, and the technical one all bookmarked, in their own folder, that would open 3 separate tabs at the same time. If you save them with "&page=999" at the end eg http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1774963&page=999 it will conveniently open the thread at the final page, for any new posts.

I personally don't see the point of having a moan...... if the site owner and his reps want it run in a certain way, (they're the ones who keep the servers up and running:T!!) let's try and keep a happy medium, like we did last time when it became an issue.

:beer::beer:
I expect this will get a the usual 2 opposing sets of views, but at the end of the day, it worked before, so I'm sure it can work again.:D

Thanks to Pippivixen on PTS

:j Calendar reduced from £2.99 to 99p and has 2 pages of COUPONS :beer: worth about £25. Not sure whether Co op specific or nss.

Can someone check it out and post details....still suffering with bad back :eek: so can't get out to check myself.

I'm only asking for no more Freebie links, competitions etc

if I'm having to wade through loads of Jokes/freebies/competitions each day I am liable to make mistakes and maybe remove real vouchers.

I'd much prefer to spend 5 minutes each day reading through the days posts and removing any genuine spam (by new users may i add , not you lot) , any requests for stuff by PM/email and basic BG stuff.

So if you can PLEASE not post Freebies competitions etc then I can go away and leave things like I have in the past

thank you

I added this to the Coupons by post section as it does come with a coupon. When someone finds out how much the coupon is for, please let me know and I'll add that info too. Happy coupon hunting!!!:D
