    This evening spent £37 on clothes and used 2 x £5 off £25 clothing spend.in total i spent £69 in tesco so the £5 are either scanning on ANYTHING over £25 or just scanning at £5 off mocs :)
  • So for every £25 you spend in Tesco you can use a £5 MOC, which is supposed to be for clothes but can be used against anything? Won't the cashier notice?

    right.....so you had to buy clothes? And you only got £10 off???

    Doesn't seem that amazing to me lol. No offence

    um no offence taken but i can see that as it scanned TWO vouchers and i didnt spend 50 quid on clothes it either scans on anything over £25 or just scans at a £5 moc:o

    Think I've got it:
    The £5 off was supposed to be off for £25 spend on clothes
    But
    OP used 2 of these coupons on £37 worth of clothes (so should only have taken one coupon) & the rest of the total was food.




    I think

    Well, I think it's still worth trying if you plan big shopping tomorrow (I know it's mad to go to Tesco on Sat b4 easter :)):

    Getting clothes £25 or over

    Make sure the total with groceries is £50 or over / £75 / £100

    Then you get £5 off each £25 spent ?

    Thank you OP!

    Edit: question to siamesecats : if you would have spent £6 more would you have had £15 off total then?

    I get it now.

    The vouchers scans on food and grocery.

    I suppose as long as you have a couple of items of clothing the SA wont notice.

    I usually justthrow a massive pile of vouchers at the SA and smile whilst saying - oh im not sure which ones of those will scan.

    And they quite happily scan each one, giving me back the ones that wont work.
    :TIs thankful to those who have shared their :T
    :T fortune with those less fortunate :T
    :T than themselves - you know who you are!

    hi op

    were any of the clothes you purchased reduced?

    if so would the original prices of added upto £50 or more?

    so the till recognised the original prices,thus accepting two vouchers.
