tesco or sainsburys accepting each others vouchers?

aurorahelios

I've been sent some £12 off £60 vouchers for sainsburys that I was going to use in sainsburys but today tescos have sent me some £5 off £50 vouchers.

Can anyone tell me if tesco still accept these kind of sainsbury vouchers?

If so will they accept the combination of the sainsbury and their own voucher?

Do sainsburys accept tesco vouchers?

I've been out the voucher game for a while so any advice would appreciated.

I was sent some of the £12 off £60 spend to use in sainsbury, Tesco's accepted them the first three, however on Saturday they told me they no longer accept them. I will now be shopping at sainsbury.

I used my £12 voucher at Tesco's yesterday no problem. Also got a till spit for £5 off £50 spend so was hoping to combine this with the Sainsbury's voucher next week

Thanks for the info, I did phone there HQ and they said they believe they do take sainsburys voucher, but will phone the store (Lakeside Essex). when they phoned me back they said it is up to the store manager if they take the voucher or not. Is this true?

No.

Caveat, the express stores may not be included in this.

So you could also print off a £5 of £30 from the Co-op site, if you haven't already done so.

Thanks for that. Will have to remember about the M&S ones in future.

Hi Nick,
Thanks for the info, I was told by the store (Lakeside Essex) that they got a communication from Head Office to say don't accept the Sainsbury £12 off a £60 spend. When I phoned their Head Office they said it is up to the manager of the store. Who is telling me the truth?

Both probably.
The Manager probably hasn't exactly understood or has misinterpreted the message from HO & has made his 'executive decision' from there.

As far as standard policy is concerned, it will of course be Head Office who are correct.
