Might have to go back and see if I can get some more!!
Also used these vouchers in Asda last week, got Olay face wipes costing £2.00. Said to the self scan supervisor that I had bought an Olay product and he said Ok, yeah, fine! So got another £3 worth of shopping free plus the face wipes!
I tried this in Superdrug this morning with face polishes 2 for £10 but they said I could only use one coupon so I put them back. I then offered an eye cream which was refused, she said it had to be regenerist, oh well just keeping different stores.
Also noticed our Asda has now got scanners, dont know when this happened. I innocently asked the scanner ogre what would happen if you had a coupon. It was not clear where coupons were supposed to go. The lady said they had to tape the slot because people were putting all sorts in the slot and only manufacters coupons were allowed. No I dont know what was being put in the slot either:rotfl:

Apparently Mary - people have been scanning their vouchers but then inserting plain paper into the voucher slots and using their vouchers on another shop.
I have several Olay vouchers but not sure when/if I will use themI am the only Voucher Queen in my village LOL

I have far too innocent to ever be let out, I would never have thought of doing that. Getting rid of any coupons at all is a miracle never mind saving them up for another shopping trip!
I think eventually there will be so many Olay coupons around there will soon be more than enough for everyone and thye wont even be worth swappping and then shops will get difficult and stop us using them at all, even to buy the correct Olay. Tuesday I think this will happen:rotfl:

I did a 'joint' christmas shop in Asda today with my mum. We bought lots of long lasting stuff like xmas puds, frozen nibbles, crackers, cards, tinned fruit, trifle mix etc etc.
Bill came to £130 ... gave in 6 of the vouchers and a couple of money off's in my bag and spent just under £100. Split between the 2 of us it cost me under £50 for all my xmas shopping bar the fresh stuff.
I am soooo organised for xmas this year that I'll have nothing to do in December, waheyyyyyyyyy:D0 -
Well done Meerustar - haven't done my Christmas food shop yet but bought an adorable reindeer soft toy for the kiddies today which I have hidden. I also dug out all my special family Christmas cards and relation cards and wrote them all out today !!! it's nice to be organised isn't it. Last year I missed the Wilkinsons sale just after Christmas where trees were only 10p each I will be going to that one this year.
Back to thread, I have shopped at Asdas been allowed to use 3 £5 vouchers in one go, another time I had 3 voided, another time told I could use them against the product only and the last time I bought the product - well 4 of them and was told I could only use 3 vouchers !!
Sometimes Tescos seems much more appealing although just as inconsistent. I received the Waitrose voucher policy from HO today so may well give them a try nearer to Christmas.

Hi Welshdragon, I see you rec Waitrose Voucher policy from the HO - could you confirm what they say about coupons & vouchers? - many thanks!0

Hiya startedsaving - like the user ID - don't know why I chose mine 'cos I'm not a dragon LOL !
Anyway, here is a copy of the email I received today from Waitrose:
Thank you for your e-mail.
Waitrose will accept suppliers' coupons for any product which
we sell including Waitrose Food Illustrated coupons, whether or
not you are purchasing the item for which the coupon
was issued.
Cashiers may accept any quantity of coupons provided the
coupons are valid. Hope this helps answer you enquiry.
Kind Regards
Will phone my store first to check their policy because I suspect it varies from store to store

Welshdragon, many thanks for all your help - I seem to see your posts all over the place - you really know your stuff! BTW - I'm sure you're not a dragon either! All the best.0

Good Luck with the saving - Welshy xI am the only Voucher Queen in my village LOL

i managed to get 2 olay anti-wrinkle creams for £4.99 today in Asda. The SA said she could only take one voucher and I asked why as i had bought two. She then proceeded to tell me she could only take 4.99 off my shopping twice as the item was 4.99. I was not going to argue for the 1p!!! I intend to go back now and buy some more as they will come in handy for my mam. I think i will make her an Olay gift basket for xmas. With these vouchers and the Tesco health and beauty vouchers and all the Glitches at Boots (not many at the moment though) I think i could open a chemist with all the products i have. Hubby thinks i have spent a fortune!Just about to give up!0
