    My store has notices saying 10% only in coupons including on the self service tills. I think they have blocked over the coupon holes so you have to pass the coupon to the assistant. When the 10% rule was introduced I went back to using the normal till assistants as they don't always stick to 10% and I assume the 10% is more rigorously checked on the self service tills.

  • Where do you get the 10% coupons from?
  • using these self-service tills results in a loss of jobs and absolutely awful customer service for those just nipping in for a couple of items

    The 10% rule means that you can use cash value coupons to get up to 10% knocked off your bill. It isn't an actual '10% off' coupon.

    For example if you spend £20 then you can use up to £2 coupons. This could be 99p off a magazine, 35p off crisps and 65p off cereal coupons etc... You do not have to buy the actual product the coupon is for!
    They say you can't put a value on life... but I live it at half price!

    That's the reason why.

    People abuse the privalege which then prevents everyone else from using them normally.
