    Oh your clever you! :D urm.. can I use 2 in the one transaction? Is it just a hit and a miss to see if they notice?

    I have yet to fail. I've used anywhere between 2 and 8 so far. Have two for tomorrow if 1p hunt is unsuccessful, which is looking likely now.

    Please throw these coupons away.:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

    You must not print more than one coupon with the same pin number, if you do the store will not get their money back and you will damage the coupon acceptance policy in your store and possibly all supermarkets.:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Supermarkets only get paid once per pin number. You printing multiple copies with the same pin number is the same as photocopying.

    If you keep doing this you will ruin the coupon acceptance for us all.:(:(:(

    Please stop doing this and just apply again using different details so that the coupon has a different pin number.

    I completely agree, CouponWoman, and I know it isn't funny but I did laugh at this post. I think it must be the use of a billion smilies.

    Hi i am fairly new to this website. There seems to be so much on here to read. How do you all know which items are scanning as 1p, or cheaply. Is there an updated listlike when tesco was doning the DTD thing? Thanks

    Hey munchkinz only just noticed your signature (I think thats what it is called), it's great. Bet it took a long time to work out those figures that certainly is dedication to moneysaving. Excellent. :T:T

    Thank you.
    I have a spreadsheet set up, OH thinks I'm OCD :o I just like to know how I'm doing :p
    It helps That I have 5 computers I can use for printing coupons.:eek:

    Oh and I must add not all the stuff I get is for I also shop for my dad and grandparents (and occasionally MIL)

    :(:( i'm so sorry for making people think i was single handedly going to shut the country down by using duplicated coupons. i am very new to this idea, and had no idea that it was wrong - there was no reason for people to launch at me, i'm new, and uneducated! this particualr coupon was not one that you entered email addresses etc, it was a print once and thats your lot jobbie, and when it came up with the option to print multiples, i took the opportunity to see if it would work.

    IMHO there will be hundreds of people that would have done what i did and actually used them.
    i'm sorry if i worried everyone, but rest assured i have learnt my lesson and will not be multiplying again.:D
    bargain hunting is what i do! :money: 2 adults 3 kids - its like trying to feed a zoo! :D

    My OH thinks I am OCD too as I keep all my receipts!!! :eek: Can't remember who but someone said the other day their OH gets them to keep the receipts just in case someone wonders how they got their stash! ;)

    Can't really join in on the coupon front as I don't have a printer. I did dip in a bit with DTD as the amount made it worthwhile to go to library.

    I have been shopping for my 2 DDs one who has just finished 2nd year uni and one who hopefully will be starting this september. Sent a bargain bag back with DD1 last year and her housemates have already asked if she will be coming again with one this year! So thanks to this thread and superdrug one they both will be going back fairly well stocked for beginning of term. (Minus Mexicorn and choc custartd though!) And the kitchen glitch was just amazing towards this. I usually pick up a couple extra of anything for my mum and friend too. :)

    I'm on my 2nd day and even more bargains

    Choc custard is at full price :( but I found socks for 25p, 3 jars of pasta sauce for 20p and some single electric blankets reduced to £5. I took 2 for pressies and there are still some left, Southampton, Bursledon store.

    Add that to my free galaxy chocolate voucher and its been a good day :j

    I couldn't find any at burseldon maybe we should stick together lol 2 sets of soton eyes :)

    Sorry if we sounded harsh :o everyone is new at some point, it's not just you we need to make everyone aware that this will cause problems in the long run.

    Hope you keep on couponing it gets addictive :D
