It would be useful to know where ppl have tried, and what they got off with.
Am new to all this, does it also apply to Scotland stores.
I have a whole load of babies vouchers, that i carry with me. Having a baby is pretty expensive.
But dont want to risk giving them vouchers for stuff i havent brought, i feel dead embrassed. Or mayb i play dumb and say oh is that one not scaning?, mayb i forgotten to buy it. Oh well i will use it next time

newmommyjen - you soon get over any embarrassment when you see the money coming off. Honestly. I started handing over coupons at Tesco when my sons were babies because I was broke - now they are teenagers and I'm even 'broker' so I'm back to handing the coupons in. Can't really think why I ever stopped - I mean why would you want to give up getting £X's off your shopping each week.

i've only been challenged once in my local tesco about coupon use, by a young lad who wanted to look through my shopping to see if I'd bought the items. I had such a look of utter disgust on my face (practiced in advance ready for such occasions) that he just shrugged uncomfortably and scanned them through. Now I have my favourites I go to.

Don't forget to mention your bag re-use club card points just as they are scanning them. They get a wee bit flustered and just whack the coupons through.
