quick question re:tesco conditional spend vouchers
i have 2 £4off £40 tesco vouchers
1 in my name and 1 in OHs name( both have our own sep. cards not merged)
can they be used on the same shop

Hi MT, If the barcode for the conditional spends is exactly same, then I would guess, the similar coupons would be recogised as "done already" by system.

But may be SA can put it through manually if she is kind enough..;) Good luck:)

Ok so I've read numerous posts about Tesco accpeting other supermarkets conditional spend vouchers. Is there a webpage stating this on tesco's website, so I can print it off. I use 2 tesco's one is ok, the other can be a right pain in the backside for accepting any coupons, so it would make me feel better to have some proof. Thank You.

I don't think there is a link but I emailed them about this and recieved this reply

Dear Mrs Moneysaver

Thank you for your email with regard to which competitor’s vouchers we accept. I’d like to apologise for the delay in replying. Normally, we can get back in touch with you within 24 hours and I’m sorry that we haven’t managed to do this for you.

Unfortunately, we've taken the decision to no longer accept Farmfoods conditional spend coupons. Please be assured that we did not take this decision lightly and this was only reached after careful consideration.

We continually review our own business strategy and how we perform within the competitive retail sector. By accepting another retailer's coupons, we need to understand how much of a benefit this is to our customers, in comparison to the value it gives to our own business.

For your information, we still accept conditional spend coupons from the following competitors:

ASDA
Morrisons
Sainsburys
Co-op
Marks & Spencer
Waitrose
Boots
Aldi

We only accept coupons if the item is actually bought and any conditional spend coupons must be within that spend eg spend £30.00 to get £5.00 off. We can't accept coupons if the item isn't purchased.

Any coupons which are printed from the Internet are down to store discretion as to whether they will accept them or not as unfortunately as these are open to abuse.

I hope that this has explained our policy to you but please let me know if I can be of any other help.

Thank you once again for taking the time and trouble to contact us.

If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact me at customer.service@tesco.co.uk

Kind Regards


Pat Cronin
Customer Service Manager
Tesco Customer Service

I heard a whisper Bully was getting an extra large wet fish tomorrow:eek:guess she doesn't need it now your back:D :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Welcome back pal:beer:



I have noticed quite a few people saying they have given coupons away to people in stores, which is something I have done, BUT only ever non printed ones (i.e. from GFS, M&S, newspapers etc which I knew I wouldn't be able to use in time. I have always been a bit wary of handing out printed internet ones unless pdf's because as nice as people may seem, you never know them and greed could take over. They could take the coupon you give them home and make lots of photocopies of it:eek::eek:It would be traceable via the unique pin no's (couponnet ones) to you via you ip and it would be you that would be in trouble.
I don't want to stop people being generous, but just warn everyone to think very carefully what they do with couponnet coupons as I think they will start trying to do something about all the photocopies some of us read people were bragging about doing from the old dtd thread.

i totally agree with you on this, although i did see the woman go through the tills that i gave mine too, i suppose if i had been ready to go i wouldnt have known if she pocketed it or not, great point

right guys

I finished my work today but couldnt bring myself to leave the house again- so tired!
So no couponing for me tonight but I have collated all my coupons into a folder, with a seperate section for
all wombled recipts needing clubcard points added on from,
wombled receipts I'm waiting to hear back on from T's,
price check receipts to redeem,
coupons for next shop,
coupons I'm holding on to to see if any offers come up before expiry

and I have been on excel and made up a spreadsheet with different sections - item, price in T, price in A, value of coupon, then a wee bit of formula to work out the cost I will pay after difference back and coupon

LOSER!

I feel I have stooped to a new low but I am so proud of myself too!

Now to bed - tomorrow is a coupon day!

not a loser, this post just shows the reason for my 7-8 pound coupon binder in usa! organization always pays! :rotfl:

Hello everyone

We do all need to stick together in our search for coupons. We all aim to save money on our shopping, to enable us to have better lifestyles, to pay our flipping bills easier, to pay for holidays, clothes, whatever we need to support out home and family.

And hopefully we all need to be friends and support members of our coupon family who are experiencing family or health problems.

So, I hope to put all this behind me now and move forward.

Tomorrow is a new day.

Glad to see that you are back where you belong CW :A

Totally agree. I only print off couponstar mocs if I think I can use them and if I don't manage to, they go in the shredder.

Blue needs my pals help please. A bit to do with coupons if you want 50p off rubbish toilet roll you can get it via the Velvet FB page;) I need as many people as possible to complain on velvets campaign for trees Facebook page about not being able to play the money tree comp because it says they have already played when they haven't (if it is doing that for them.) I can then take a screenshot of the page as evidence their system saying no of plays is faulty if my claim for my win ever goes to court. Thanks

Already had a whinge as you know, but happy to keep [STRIKE]moaning[/STRIKE].. erm.. making constructive comments for them.

thanks Blue, im glad to see i didnt either, as you, I do sometimes scan things and press thanks! will be more careful and do hope CW comes back, she was the most helpful :A and Idlesaver for all her hard work, of course!

Only just caught up and realised that CW is back (YAY!!) and I may have just started it all off again, so EVERYBODY IGNORE CUCKOO PLEASE, at the point in the thread I thought I was helping, lol!!

I see I was utterly rubbish and did thank this post, and have now removed my thanks. Just to clarify that when I joined this site it was on the reclaiming bank charges forums and it was the way I learned about forums, to thank each post I had read in order to see which posts I had read and which I had still to catch up on. I can see that this post was offensive to CW which is why I have removed my thanks, but if you have a look at the people who have thanked - maybe it would be worth a quick check to see if they, in fact - have checked EVERY post on the whole thread; because if that were the case, it was obviously unintentional - as it was with me, to cause anyone any upset.
