    I've sent the vouchers off to everyone I've promised yesterday and today (apart from Felicity - please check your PMs!)

    They've gone out 2nd class so should hopefully be with you early next week, or with luck, tomorrow. :)

    I'll pop into the big Tesco at the weekend and see if I can grab some more vouchers. ;)
  • Sorry if this has been asked before, but does the voucher state "not to be used in conjunction with any other voucher"? cheers, steve.

    just looked on the back and it states 'one coupon per transaction.'

    Cheers for replying, that's what I thought - it doesn't explain why people are using up to multiples of 10 of the same coupon.

    This to me is taking the mick, by the looks of it some people on here are pouncing on defenceless checkout staff in order to cheat the system.

    Surely the legitimate saving of £3.50 & 50 points using the combination of the 3 vouchers on a £10+ shop is simply not enough for some people?

    The 50 point voucher is for a £2 spend. You could separate your shop into lots of £2 transactions, and legitimately use one per transaction. Question is, would the "defenceless checkout staff" rather do a million £2 transactions or just do them all in one big one (seeing that the till lets them do it)?

    Thats quite true, but people are using the multiple points voucher on the one transaction - that was my point.:confused:

    Just got back from Tesco!
    Very pleased with myself! Read about these health and beauty vouchers and couldn’t believe it when I found them at pharmacy counter.
    Went to an older check gal.

    Got the following

    Dover bodywash x 2 – BOGOF - £4.56
    Parmolive Handwash BOGOF – £1.66
    Shampoo BOGOF - £1.74
    Impulse BOGOF - £1.98

    Grand total before any deductions - £19.88
    £9.94 after discounts.

    Then handed over –
    2 x £1.00 coupons
    1 x £2.50 coupons
    Plus 2 x 50 points coupons oh and a double points general one

    Grand total - £5.44

    Didn’t want to push it but I am very pleased with my bargains and it’s all stuff we use everyday!
    First time I've really done that with more than onie coupon and I was nervous as I thought she'd say NO!

  • Well done, princess G I am off shortly to spend my vouchers.

    Don't forget if you are at the bigger stores which have the pharmacy counters to not only look out for the vouchers but pick up the free family travel goodie bag from the pharmacy counter.
