    :(:( 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

    Thank you Kimbug.

    It takes a bit of advice from more seasoned coupon shoppers to point us in the right direction. Couponwoman meant it in the nicest and most helpful way.:)

    It is nice to see you putting her sage advice to good use. It helps everyone in the long run. We don't want to sacrifice long term shopping discount for the sake of a quick gain.

    It is true that others will not have these ethics but each one that goes down the same path just increases the likelihood of a change of policy regarding the use of coupons.

    Good to have you on board:T

    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. :)

    Get yourself on freeycycle, printers come up all the time.

    I would definitely get a printer, I hooked up my old laptop the other day which I haven't used in years and managed to print £32 worth of coupons in one day :j

    and ink cartridges are very cheap on amazon (well for epson at least)

    P.S Some coupons will send you one through the post if you don't have a printer.

    please can we keep this as the 1p thread, it seems to be moving really fast with other current deals, thank you

    A lot of folk sharing current deals that could otherwise be overlooked is surely a positive thing? I just got a free galaxy bar thanks to this thread:beer:

    I tried saying the same thing earlier.

    Although, my last few post have all been coupon related not 1p :o sorry.
